The article is a puff piece about how the company behind Denuvo totally has data that says their root kit doesn’t negatively impact performance.
They assert this with the same sort of confidence that I had back in 3rd grade when I claimed to have a girlfriend, just one that went to a different school and no, you wouldn’t know her.
The interviewer completely ignores the massive amounts of 3rd party data that says, yes, Denuvo is cancer that makes games run like shit while also making it easier to hack people’s computers. Doesn’t bring it up at all.
Now for my part, I had to actually look to other sources to see what the current crack speed was, because I’m not going to trust a puff piece to be honest. I remember plenty of stories about how Denuvo was “uncrackable” and then cracked in literal hours.
Sadly, current crack speeds are much slower than they were just a couple years ago when I had last looked. Only one person is still bothering to crack Denuvo, and the company is constantly downloading the cracks and patching around them.
It’s not a puff piece, it’s an interview that clearly prefaced his comments with background info about Denuvos performance impact. You can disagree with it (I do) without discrediting the article.
Also, as far as I know Denuvo games have always been slower to crack.
Been a while since I pirated games so idk just how out of the loop I am, but It looks to me that Denuvo games took longer because not a lot of people work on them. I could be wrong, of course, but Empress seems to crack them quickly.
Did you read the article?
It’s not hours to a few days.

Yeah but I believe people have to pay her and she’s kind of unstable too.
