Denuvo identifies a user opening a game with multiple versions of Proton as multiple machines. It thinks that's piracy and locks the user out of the game

Seems like it should be an easy patch, right? Assuming they have any desire to (I think it "runs" on Steam Deck, so that might be enough incentive)

Refund and wait for a crack. Fuck Denuvo and fuck Bethesda for using them

I never buy/install games with Denuvo. Guess it will be a while before I'm playing this.

Thanks to this news, there will be a version without Denuvo quite quickly. 🏴‍☠️

You get what you pay for. You buy denuvo, you get denuvo.

This is why native support still matters. Anything not supported can pull the rug out from under you at any time.

[-] ImplyingImplications@lemmy.ca 22 points 2 days ago

Except for when glibc updates and breaks games with native support (but not the ones running through a compatibility layer). Although that definitely happens way less than devs purposefully pushing changes that break on Linux.

[-] Damage@feddit.it 10 points 2 days ago

Yeah, games through Proton are a bit like containerized apps, you get everything you need to run them in the Proton package.

I'm not following your argument. You're perfectly capable of having the rug pulled out from under you with a native Linux build too.

[-] barnaclebutt@lemmy.world 24 points 2 days ago

That probably explains all of the crashes reported by windows users too. ID Software what happened? You were supposed to be the chosen one.

Owned by zenimax, owned by microsoft. Same owners of activision blizzard. Shafted Mick Gordon. So this is kinda 100% as expected.

[-] endeavor@sopuli.xyz 13 points 2 days ago

You must really fucking hate composers or not play games if you think ID is a contender for the best game studio.

[-] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 day ago

It used to be. 😭

Not that I would have bought it - not my type of game - but this game gets on my blacklist.

[-] Kraiden@kbin.earth 21 points 2 days ago

I get paid today and was gonna pick this up tonight... Guess it's back to Oblivion then!
