Resident Evil 2 Remake was released on January 25th and was powered by the latest version of the Denuvo anti-tamper tech. And from the looks of it, it took almost a week in order to crack this new version of the controversial anti-tamper tech.
As said, Resident Evil 2 Remake is using the latest version of Denuvo which is – unofficially – titled Denuvo 5.5. From what we know so far, Ace Combat 7 is also using Denuvo 5.5 and the highly anticipated Metro Exodus will be most likely using this particular version.
Contrary to some other releases, Resident Evil 2 Remake does not suffer from any performance issues (despite the presence of Denuvo). As such, and if you are worried about the game’s performance, we strongly suggest buying it as Capcom did an incredible job with the PC version (you can read our PC Performance Analysis article here).
It will be interesting to see whether the scene groups will crack Ace Combat 7 before Metro Exodus launches, and whether they will be able to release a crack on launch day for Metro Exodus (especially after the announcement of the Epic Store exclusivity deal; a deal that frustrated a lot of PC gamers).
It will be also interesting to see whether Capcom will remove Denuvo from Resident Evil 2 Remake later this year (now that the game has been cracked). Earlier this month, Capcom removed the Denuvo anti-tamper tech from Resident Evil 7 so we are pretty sure that the Japanese company will, eventually, remove it from RE2REmake too!

Don’t worry KIM. Denuvo programmers are already at work on the next version of Denuvo.

ahahhahahaa
wasnt cpy?
Nope codex, nicely done codex
Most epic Gif ever lol hahahaha.
At least they had 1 week to sell!
6 days
Metro Exodus will be first game with DRM on launch day (Ashen got DRM after update) in Epic Store and it will be FIRST implementation of Denuvo to Epic Store, It might end up as EPIC fail 😉
i’m a full time dedicated pirate now. i will stop pirating games when i see attention to details and creative game mechanics dominate the market. garbage games like dark souls and battle royal games ruined gaming for me, every dumb f4g of a developer is mimicking dark souls low iq combat system now. it’s either that or underwhelming dull open world busy works that feel terrible to play like ubisoft games with new assassin’s creed games being combination of both which is cancer in video game form.
Christ. It’s fine if you pirate, but please atleast remember to pay for the games you like.
no
resident evil 2 is one of the only games i ever felt was polished and gorgeous enough to buy, give her a buy if you liked the OG resident evil games cause if it does well re3 will be remade
I’ll pirate everything regardless, I recommend you do the same.
For me I’d buy it after they remove Denuvo, officially. did the same with Doom, Dishonored 2, Mega Man 11 and RE7. I just don’t want Denuvo in my machine.
sad teenager with aspergers is sad
Dude do whatever the f*k you want but don’t try to justify your actions with dumb sh*t.
Did it really take them a week to crack it or did they decide to give it a week before doing so, seeing it’s an amazing game and one that deserved the sales it got?
Ayyy
People who pirate will pirate anyway, there is no “deserved” sales and all games are cracked anyway regardless of whether they deserve it or not.
I feel like many articles are copy/paste minus the « gAme title » we get it, denuvo is trash and is getting cracked quite fast now.
“we strongly suggest buying it as Capcom did an incredible job with the PC version”
Especially since free dlc is coming up and pirates dont get that until cpy decide to recrack it.
“It will be interesting to see whether the scene groups will crack Ace Combat 7 before Metro Exodus launches, ”
“the scene” you mean cpy? Just one italian mad man, or a team of italian mad men cracking the world away.
What happened to Baldman, 3DM, etc? And why he doesn’t share his cracking methods?
baldman got a job and didnt have time to do it. Steampunks method was issuing denuvno tickets, maybe that exploit doesnt work anymore. 3DM is Chinese and they were basically localizing games for China, they cracked the first denuvo versions with exploits and they didnt manage to crack them well later on. Voski is probably in prison in Bulgaria.
I guess it’s all just a conspiracy now… 😀
apparently this one was cracked by codex so no.
The release title for this says CODEX, not CPY.
CODEX seems to be one of the most active cracking groups, far more than CPY.
Well, i thought cpy was more active but whatever.
Great game with shity DRM. this is sad..

**judging intensifies***
That’s right.
You know, Presidents vote for themselves too.
No, more the fact that people generally disagree with you so you have to vote yourself up.
I’m not here to be agreeable. We both know that. 🙂
I generally don’t comment if I’m in agreeance.
Right…. only, in the President’s case, they aren’t the ONLY person who votes for them.
You have literally, 1 like on any of your comments, your own. That’s just….. depressing bud. Move on already. Let it go.
Meh, this is a hole full of pirates. Of course no one is backing me up. It’s why people come here, to complain, steal games and harass others. Am I wrong? Because that’s definitely the vibe I get, and the articles posted only fuel that flame.
Everyone here realizes that 100% piracy, would lead to the death of their favourite franchises. Maybe give people’s gripes and concerns credit, if you want to be taken seriously.
People are pretty sick of getting bent over by companies, that would suck the blood from their corpse, if it would make them an extra dollar, all the while, giving nothing in return.
“PC gaming”, has been around for four DECADES now, with practically zero anti-piracy measures for a good 3 decades. The old “piracy boogeyman”, just isn’t a viable scapegoat bud. That’s all.
Relax, and do things your way, and everyone else will do things theirs.
I understand gripes and concerns. However, a decent person, if they don’t like what a company is doing, they don’t steal the product, they simply do not buy it.
There is a way to vote without becoming a degenerate. That’s all I’m saying.
Copying a file isn’t stealing
Piracy isn’t even obtaining a copy, it’s sharing it, video game companies and journos simply started pushing for the term for people who obtain the files so they could use a derogatory negative term to shame customers.
That’s not how vengeance work man. People want Justice and in this case they are using piracy to get that Justice. I for one don’t pirate games but I have another way of acting out my vengeance on these developers/publishers. I’ll give you a hint, there was a certain game that was just released with Denuvo, got CRACKED 2 days prior to release and is always-online. What is my way of exactly revenge? I got the $129 GOLD EDITION for $19. They can go Fuq themselves.
I guess our Steam, uplay, Origin, GOG libraries mean we’re pirates and we don’t buy games.
A single point of data doesn’t make a statistic.
And you can prove we’re factually pirates how?
There are literally comments admitting they’re doing it. You know better than to try to make that argument.
Correction, some people are admitting it, which doesn’t make this site a “hole full of pirates”. That is a sweeping statement.
That’s a fair point, it was an exaggeration. Still, bet case scenario the few make the whole look worse than they should.
>talks about someone writing “Licking” instead of “Liking”
>writes “bet case scenario” instead of “best case scenario”

I may be wrong, but weren’t you one of those “No metro on steam no buy” guys? Because I see a fortnite icon on your desktop.
At least you own Dark Souls. +1 for that.
I’m not promoting anti-consumer practices, but I also don’t think anything Epic is doing is anti-consumer.
I use primarily Steam myelf, but I’m also not going to say that Steam is a “good” company. They have become stagnant, take way too thick a share, and it is about time someone forces them to improve. That’s why I’m O.K. with Epic stepping up, it’s going to be good for us all in the end. I don’t like monopolies. They give companies too much power and take freedom away from the consumer.
I’m also buying Sekiro on Steam.
Here, take this period. It will help you on your journey.
.
Couldn’t read that jumbled mess.
You still have choice. It was only going to be on Steam. Now it is only going to be on Epic. Either way, it was no choice other than buy it or not.
Don’t pretend you suddenly lost your ability to buy the game.You’re jus throwing a fit because it’s not on the store you’re used to.
They’re not “banned’. Working out these legalities takes time. It’s not just flipping a switch, you have to get this stuff approved and legalized.
No, both Epic and Origin are banned here. by epic and ea. Xbox is also banned (winstore not which you can still buy from it but can’t play) it’s app here few months ago and i can’t play Forza Horizon 3 that i bought and paid tax for it unless i pirate it. same for my 30+ games on my Origin account.
Steam isn’t a monopoly, it provides a good service and client features, something no other games client has yet to match.
Steam Literally fits the definition of the monopoly. Look up the article, “Valve is not your friend, and Steam is not healthy for gaming”
It breaks it down.
Not it doesn’t, Steam doesn’t have higher prices than other stores, it doesn’t exclude competitors, it’s not a single seller of games. Why then are Ubisoft and EA games not cheaper on their stores and why are games on Epic’s store not cheaper?
That’s not what a monopoly is. It’s about market share. Steam handles most PC purchases (the explicit numbers aren’t available), which is what puts them in that definition. It doesn’t mean competitors are not out there, it just means it puts them at an unfair advantage, enough to essentially control the market.
Market power and market share are different things. Steam doesn’t have market power otherwise Epic Games, GOG, Greeman gaming, uPlay, Origin wouldn’t have their own store. Also, is Valve stopping Epic from taking games off Steam with their market power? No.
Hear, hear. The ‘I know best’ obnoxious arrogance and opinion stated as fact approach of dirthurts seldom fails to amuse. ?
sick rig dude…but how can anyone have their pc right next to them? Its too noise, i keep it away from me.
q carajo???! un argentino en dsog????
do you really enjoy playing games with all this flashing stuff around your monitor?
Nice! Cheers fellow pirate, Yarrrrrrh!

Hum, Hollow Knight, Ori i see that you sir are a man of taste.
Those unread messages though…
I’m addicted to this site and I don’t steal games nor do I harass others.
“Presidents vote for themselves too”
http://www.teapartytribune.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/Hillary-crying.jpg
There’s a bullet we dodged thankfully.
Lol he said presidents
Nice, now just wait for Fitgirl to repack the game and it is golden
Already done!
Too bad fitgirl doesn’t upload on Gdrive
You know DSO, you’re really just promoting piracy with all these articles. I know you need the clicks, but it’s obvious that you’re only harming the industry by spreading the word of “hey pirates, over here!”.
I guess I shouldn’t expect better?
Pirates are gamers too you know?
In the same sense that toddlers are humans.
Nah ni**a u ghey
It’s reporting news not promoting, it’s like the media reporting how criminals do the crime, doesn’t make others criminal.
LICKING 😀 That is… fitting!
I just don’t like thieves.
At least I can spell “liking”. That counts for something.
he has a very low iq, i argued with him before.
What wrong with piracy?
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/2c30c461c75b5275f07db8ec2cb7c9743959812969d0f8bdf127a6cb6a7f1bc2.jpg
Yea because pirating a game is the solution… you visibly want to play without paying because of publisher/dev choices. Why not wait for the product to be on another store and have it’s protection removed ?
So by your standards people who refuse to support Denuvo should not buy/play MGV ever ? Because its been 3 years and it still has it and i really doubt that Konami will take it off.
So STEALING it is the solution? Don’t play the game that’s it. If you don’t like Pepsi’s new mindset towards their customers you don’t buy their products right ? You don’t steal it either because you’re exposing yourself to the law. Pirating is the same it’s just that it’s so widespread that it’s « normal » now to pirate a game.
Not going to make friends here but it’s the truth.
Stealing is stealing no matter the cause.
This.
Piracy is not Stealing and if you think its the same clearly you are ignorant, and if your concern about piracy is i being exposed to the law. Don’t mind me then, my country is only illegal to distribute illegal copies for profit. The actual use of pirated copies has no legal bearings at all.
You’re taking ownership of a product that is not free and is being sold in a store HOW is that not stealing ? I’m curious
Theft is when a person steals something leaving the Seller with a negative status. AKA no money, no product. Piracy in other hand, you have no prove wutsoever that one person that is pirating something would have bought the product pirated has it not been available otherwise.
It all comes back to how publishers like to say “o look the piratesbay torrent had 12millions downloads that means 12 millions lost copys” yet came Denuvo that stoped piracy at first for months and we never got a news of the same publishers how greatly the sales had increased, i wonder why ?
Oh so following that logic if i see a restaurant that has a filet mignon that is 80$USD that I AM NOT going to buy because of selfish reasons if i get in the restaurant and take it and eat it and don’t pay anything then it’s fine beucause i wasn’t going to buy it anyway. Ok.
hmmm no that’s different. The restaurant is now minus one filet. When someone pirates a game the Publisher isn’t minus one game.
Most pirates are people who can’t afford to buy games anyway so it’s usually not a lost sale for the Publisher.
“Most pirates are people who can’t afford to buy games” so use that to warrant their right of stealing a product.
Got it.
I was broke too once upon a time not too long ago. I didn’t steal anything. I stood up, worked like a real man and earned my right to own it.
But what are they stealing? ones and zeroes from the internet?
The crux of the matter is that most people who pirate can’t afford to buy the games and if they weren’t free then they wouldn’t buy them anyway.
The Publisher hasn’t lost anything physical like a disc with the game on it they they have to replace. They haven’t lost any income either. Why does it matter?
Now there are some that would buy the game because they can afford too but choose to get it for free but how to single those out from the others?
All the pirates I know can afford video games.
You do not have any statistics backing up your claims (and I searched for them). Making stuff up doesn’t make it a valid point.
Maybe you can’t afford them, and I hate that for you, but it still doesn’t justify stealing it, even if you can’t wrap your head around how it is hurtful.
I can afford pretty much anything that I want but I was fortunate. I was born in the USA where hard work pays and opportunities at high paying jobs are plentiful.
Most of the world doesn’t enjoy those advantages. Take a look at average incomes in Asian countries and African countries and you will see the disparity.
We’re not talking about Asia though. We’re obviously chatting in English which in itself limits the scope of the conversation.
Even in Asia, stealing games is illegal and far more harshly punished than over here.
There’s the problem right there. We are talking about Asia and Africa when discussing where the majority of piracy is.
Almost no one in China paid for a copy of Windows for example. Not even the government.
Educate yourself. Legally, it is stealing is every 1st world country. Just google “is piracy stealing”.
The fact that you refuse to look up the actual meaning of theft and would instead rely on your own, incomplete definitions speaks volume about you.
It seems you also have a narrow definition of the word educate. You can’t use these words as you did in middle school. You’re a big kid now (I’m assuming). Things are more complicated than that and you know it. You can’t warp definitions to justify your actions. It certainly wouldn’t hold up in court.
Unbelievable…
Pirates can afford a PC but not a game? BS for sure.
PCs are not consoles, they’re used for many other things.
It’s like thse people have no idea that a PC can be used for work you know.
I work on a PC. I build/repair PCs for a living. I’m well aware they can be used for work.
There you have it then.
I get it. I work using a PC so I am now justified to steal software. Yeah, solid logic there.
No, ok you don’t get it.
I get your point, it’s just fundamentally busted to the point that it borderlines ludicrous.
Ok so i’ll repeat it hoping you get what i mean. You can use all the excuses you want to be against piracy, i’m just saying you can’t use the “If you can afford a PC you can afford videogames” one, it makes no sense and it’s stupid, and some of use also pointed out that PC isn’t used only for playing videogames,
If someone can save up 600 bucks for a PC, they can save up another 5 for a game.
Checks don’t stop coming because they bought a PC for work. Explain to me where all those future checks go?
Poor people in 3rd world countries aren’t playing games on $600 PCs or anything close to that. They are using hardware that you and I practically throw away because it’s so old.
There’s nothing wrong with making the best of what you have.
My first “gaming PC” stuttered when I lost rings in the original Sonic game. The one on Genesis.
I still bought the game for 5 bucks in a bargain bin and I didn’t complain about it. I made the best out of it without feeling the need to steal. That was my only game for probably 6 months.
But you did have a way to climb out of that hole and better yourself right? You had opportunity to do better. A lot of the world has no such opportunities. They aren’t lazy as you think of them. They just don’t have a way out of being poor.
I’m sure of that. I barely made it myself, and it wasn’t on first attempt.
But, we’re not talking about the rest of the world. Anyone here is obvious 1st world, where these things don’t really apply, aside from possibly horrible disability or such, in which case I’ll buy you same games myself.
5? More like 50.
To buy more important things i suppose, i actually don’t care, i buy what i think deserves to be bought, and pirate what i think it doesn’t deserve to be bought, and i’m basically never wrong, when i’m wrong tho, i buy the game, doesn’t matter i finished it already. I was very wrong on DOOM, i had already finished it, but it deserved to be bought + they removed denuvo, and i bought it no problems. Call of cthulhu wasn’t convincing me, i pirated it, played it finished it, didn’t like it to the point it deserved 40€, i didn’t buy it, if it was something like 5-10€ yeah i’d have probably bought it, but above that is a waste of money.
Disappointing is all I have left to say.
But, this is 2019 and the world we live in now.
Oh you find this disappointing? Well at least explain why.
So? They suddenly don’t cost money?
No, if you can afford the hardware you can afford the software. Save up, get an education or something. There is never an excuse to pirate a video game.
Stealing food to survive? Sure, I’ll give you a pass. A video game so you can sit on your butt and complain you have no money? No. That time sitting could be spent earning or learning.
They cost money but they’re not only used to play videogames, so the whole thing “if you can afford a pc, you can afford to buy (overpriced) videogames” just doesn’t work. There’s always reason to pirate videogames, just as much there’s always reason to buy them.
Well, here is the thing. You don’t have to buy “overpriced” video games. You can buy cheap video games. Instead, impatient people who feel like the world owes them something have to steal it instead of waiting on the price to drop or finding it in a bargain bin. There is always a game for sale for 5 bucks somewhere, instead, people steal the expensive things they don’t deserve.
“Impatient people who feel like the world owes them something” Oh you mean like the publishers that thinks they are entitled to the coustumers money even if the product that they are selling is sub-par at best ?
Devs don’t think they’re entitled to anything. They put their product on a shelf and if people want it they expect them to buy it.
Most products are sub-par. That’s just how things are. Not everything can be great, yet you expect everything to be just the way you like it. The world does not and will not cater to you. You need to get over that.
Same aplies to devs. You say that they don’t think that they entitled to anything yet we hear them constantly complain about the “dangers” of piracy, then came Denuvo games stayed whitout cracks for months, yet i don’t see them showing their numbers of how these ant-piracy measures have improved sales one bit.
It seems reasonable to think that they would want to show with actual numbers how much of a diference it did right ? How much money they are losing to piracy right ? But they don’t, i wonder why ? Maybe is because the numbers does not prove their believes ? so they preffer to not say anything and continue to blame low sales behind the decades old boggyeman “piracy”.
The difference is Devs are legally entitled to money when you steal their product. They could sue you for it, was it worth their time. And, they would win.
They don’t post comparison numbers because you cannot post numbers for shipping the game with or without DRM unless you have two different universes to do it in.
They can and have posted sales numbers, they can post piracy numbers, but that never changed anything in the past. Why would it now?
Again piracy does not equal theft stop changing the argument. Doubt that they would win in a court case, they would have to prove that the person that pirated was gonna buy the product in the fist place. The burden of proof of their claims are on them, and not the “acused”.
So when they post the post-piracy numbers maybe i give them some credit. Again the burden of proof of their claims are them not on me.
Yep, I don’t get why it’s so hard to comprehend why downloading games from pirating sites is not stealing and a lost sale, and the person that get’s prosecuted is the person or people who run the site. How do they go about proving you knew it’s an illegal copy and that you played it or kept it on your PC? In court they have to prove all this.
That’s exactly what’s wrong with your theory. “People steal the expensive things they don’t deserve”. I mean do you understand how this sounds? There hasn’t been a videogame that DESERVED to be bought for more than 30€ for years, what are you talking about man. 99% of expensive games DESERVE to be pirated just to annoy devs, just for the sake of it.
See, now you sound narcissistic and a bit sociopathic.
Narcissistic and sociopath? Nah i just don’t like to get bent by overpriced junk, i only buy when something deserves to be bought. If i feel someone is trying to fck me, i just anticipate that, i fck them first.
You sound like my brother. He’s a d**che. 🙂
Alright.
“You sound like my brother. He’s a d**che.”
Evidently a family trait.
Jesus dude can’t you comprehend what you are reading ? What are you a functional illiterate ?
All i see here is a bunch of people trying to justify their cracked games. Even if those are only “ones and zeros” it’s an intellectual property it is worth something wether you like it or not and wether you think it’s worth it’s given price or not.
For one start it’s not stealing because the person who shared the game brought the game legally and shared it. That person is in breach of the licence agreement for sharing the game.
Well the “crack” probably modified the game’s data (structure whatever you call it) that’s when it became illegal in the case of “protection”. Not talking about mods here is it not ?
Well, this is the thing and this is why the argument against DRM has been going for decades because it restricts your use of the game, even if it means an improved experience for the customer and the customer hasn’t done anything malicious or lost money for publisher/developer. You talk about principles, well there you are.
I do understand there are drawbacks to having a DRM on a game which i hate. I buy all my games and wait for them to be in discount when i know it’s not going to be very good such as the AC franchise (for me). I hate, if i have, to deal with DRMs, i bought the game i shouldn’t worry about that but that’s how it is. DRM is garbage but it’s the direct consequence of games being pirated. If there was 0 need why would publishers etc would pay to get that sht on their product ? I hate it but that’s the way it is. I’m not going to some other site to get the product people worked for for free when i know it has a “legal” price.
Ask yourself this, they know it’s going to be cracked because DRM has been consistently cracked so why put it in? What about the people that would buy the game and not pirate the game if it didn’t have DRM, and why is GOG DRM free so popular and successful? GOG users like the games because theyr’e DRM free, not because they can be pirated easy.
Just curious… what’s in it for you if someone plays the game or not… there is literally no impact on the sale. He was never gonna buy it anyway.
It is out of principle. What’s not yours, you cannot take.
Nothing is being taken here, nothing is missing… you’re gonna have to use another word other than “stealing”… It’s just not applicable. Again, I fail to see what’s at stake for you when a faceless corporation has no need for such white knighting. I just don’t understand why you care so much, personally I wish people would not support certain companies but at the same time, I gotta keep in mind that there are those who love a good fisting so… who am I to stop their little masochistic fun.
There’s nothing at stake for me it just baffled me that people find bogus reasons to warrant their right to pirate their games, as if they couldn’t sleep at night otherwise.
I get what you’re saying but I wanted to toss one thing in here. Piracy in the past was far more normal than it is today. It’s much larger due to the convenience of the internet today but when I got my first computer back in 1985 pretty much everyone pirated some games though it wasn’t called pirating back then and there was almost no stigma attached to it like today.
I haven’t pirated any games since then though.
No putting the game on gog is the solution, after all pirates already get the game anyway.
you meant GoG? if not lmao 🙂
Well, the problem with your argument is that many people actually like what they’re selling.
Just because you don’t like it (I don’t either) doesn’t make it wrong. Now, their lying about the game was obviously wrong. But, we snow that discontent by not supporting them financially. The hard proof is they can still sell these games because people still want them and see value in them, even if you (we) do not.
Well, they say that most of a game’s sales are earned in the first 72 hours, I guess they got their full window, and then some.
Great game, absolute trash DRM. Borrowed it on PS4 myself, but ya, I’ll take the Codex deal on PC, because I simply don’t buy games with expiration dates.
Clean up your act, Capcom.
any news on mods? i can’t stand weapon sounds in this game. they sound like nerfguns. also i found it interesting that capcom went into trouble of designing sound effects for bullet casings and empty clips hitting the floor but they didn’t bother animating it, like why?
Cool. I’ll still buy it when they remove this garbage DRM, on sale for $5 in a couple years. I still can’t believe that companies think they secure more sales from using this trash.
For the piddly amount of extra sales you may get from impulse buyers, you likely lose just as many, if not more, from those of us who won’t touch DRM infested junk. Get a clue, ffs.
With the BS over at the Epic store, Metro Exodus deserves to be ripped.
INB4 legit users butthurt comments.
It’s a good game, a well done remake for the most part, now it’s time to remove the s**t and get some free positive publicity.
Why am I not surprised it was reported here quickly ?!
Good. F off with this DRM. I don’t want a repeat of Starforce, Tages or Securom to happen with games in the future.
Well after defending 4A Games and telling people to buy Metro, now I just don’t care, I hope Metro gets cracked fast and it crashes and burns on the Epic Store to the point where THQ and Deep Silver stocks plummet!
Now I’ll spend my money on Sekiro and DMC, maybe I’ll buy Metro a year from now on Steam with all DLC and hopefully for 15 bucks or less.
Epic games can burn in Hell for all I care!
Resi 2 is pretty amazing though, hopefully they remove denuvo and people that actually hate denuvo buy it! Capcom did really good here!
i want metro to succeed because the studio is small but godamn son, denuvo+epic, do you not have any sympathy at all?
Funny enough if they had given us more of a heads up and at least a couple of days, instead of a few hours to preorder from Steam, this whole crap show coulda been avoided a little.
Tell us five, three days in advance that you’re gonna pull your game from Steam, that woulda been enough for a lot of people.
Or you know release on both stores, and let Epic compete with Steam head to head!
But Epic knew that was a lost battle to them!
almost as if they sneaking it in.
ROFL already? That was fast!
this is hypocratic 🙂 you should not pirate Metro, …if you want to “fight” Deep Silver, do not buy the Epic version, do not pirate the game and play the pirate version, but wait till the game releases on Steam and then buy it 🙂
I do not f*ing get it John. You always talk about how you never link to torrents or crack, because you don’t want to support piracy, but you always inform about cracked Denuvo, to let everyone know game is cracked and they can download it.
Are you doing it only for few clicks? You either stop sharing crack status in games, or share it with direct download link, because why not…more clicks for you.
“I’m gonna pirate my first game call Metro: Tencent”
I don’t pirate games either but the Metro Exodus debacle has, like you, prompted me to reconsider my position in certain circumstances. I may settle on two specific criteria in determining whether I might pirate a game,
1. Anti-consumer shenanigans a la Metro Exodus, and/or
2. SJW pandering so to do my bit in aiding the proliferation of #getwokegobroke
I liked this so there would be a third reason…well, as long as there isn’t a fourth like…
SJWs are ruining the world. They’re horrible nazis.
Author said “Capcom did a great job with the pc version” <—-Ummm, no. You can't pick what controller to use, it decides for you. i have 2 arcade sticks and an xboneone controller on my pc, it only acknowledges arcade controller 2, which makes the game impossible to play unless I pull my pc out of it's spot, unplug the usbs in the back, put the pc back in it's spot, play re2, then move the pc out again, replug the usbs, put pc back in spot.
I shouldn't have to do that everytime I play RE2, especially since no other capcom game has this issue and even the 15+ year old re2 for pc let's me use the controller I want. So that's the long way of saying that they did NOT do a great job with the RE2 PC Version due to them not offering the most basic of options, controller selection. I stopped playing cause of the annoyance of no controller selection, it's a buzz kill…
Anyway I just want to say capcom did a amazing job, it’s a beautiful game and runs really good. Abit bummed but if you enjoy it please support them aside from that enjoy the game! Sometimes people go broke.. big ups to codex and CPY for making someone’s day

In 2 years time they will probably remove Denuvo. But in the mean time, who is Denuvo protecting the game from Steam? No one ever ask themselves that question. I got this game as part of a bundle with my RX Vega 64, and I won’t install it on my system because I don’t want this filth on my previous WD Black NVMe M.2, ewww yuck.
Reason why rockstar never released red dead redemption on pc
But seriously why does this site support piracy so much?
As soon as the cracked version came out I tested it and compared it to the legit version. Guess what? They both run exactly the same. No performance improvement, no loading time improvement. Who would’ve thunk.
CPY and CODEX…great distributors I fully support in situations like these!
Good remove it.
I wonder, probably not,if this will have any effect on the massive stuttering issues caused by this games constant communication with REnet. Probably not.
If you don’t believe me , disable your network adapter after you start the game and watch how smoothly it runs.

Bought for Xbox, started playing there but now it’s time for try it higher detail mode.
Buying a Denuvoed game isn’t an option for me. People talk about performance but what about online checks? can you play offline? Denuvo is surreal.
Nice post.
