"Ghostwire: Tokyo inexplicably adds Denuvo over a year after its release"

[kane_magus]

Oh my fucking god, as if I didn't already have enough of a phobia (or, perhaps, "misia" would be the more accurate term here) about the modern video game industry. If this, i.e. infecting a game with the Denuvo malware after the game has already been out for a while, starts becoming more of a Thing™, then I may as well seriously just stop buying modern video games at all, entirely. And I say that in an abstract way, because it's already not like I've been splurging on that shit lately, as it is. You may think I'm pissed off about this shit now, but just wait until the day I find out that some game I previously bought (which, in large part, I would have bought because it didn't have Denuvo shoehorned into it) suddenly gets updated to add Denuvo into it, after the fact. The force of a thousand suns and all that.

To fucking hell with Denuvo, and to fucking hell with any and all developers and publishers who think that contaminating their games with that dogshit is somehow a good idea.

In this particular case, at least, I'm safe, because I had little interest in Ghostwire: Tokyo even before this point, and I certainly have less than zero interest in it after.
