Speaking of Denuvo, Codex completely removed Denuvo from Assassin’s Creed Origins. Now we have a chance to definitively test the impact of Denuvo on CPUs in an actually demanding game. A lot of people will be very interested to know the findings.
We had that chance before, both with games that removed Denuvo after a time and with Devil May Cry V’s botched launch (where they made a Denuvo-free executable available for a time). The usual results are that:
– There is an impact on framerates, but it’s minimal.
– There is, though, a huge impact on loading times. Some games saw loading times triple, though the average impact isn’t that extreme.
Keep in mind that Denuvo brings other issues besides performance. Conflicts with virtualization, issues when having certain software running, online authentication required from time to time, crud remaining on your computer after uninstalling a Denuvo-protected game, and so on.
Denuvo is not relevant anymore…
f***k denuvo! whos with me!?
I just played the demo for like 2 hours or so and it’s a good game. I’ve had my eye on it for some time.. for some reason it just looked fun. And it is. Probably buy it from GMG.
Nice! Downloading, I want the full game but am going wait for a sale on GMG.
Half of the game’s size is made up from three executables that weigh around 600 MB each… Thanks denuvo.
And speaking of trash – Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz HD also comes out the same day I think, and to no one’s surprise it uses the same consumer-nerve-wrecking DRM which is listed in the EULA on the store page.
First of all, who gives a s**t about this garbage game?
Secondly, it’s SquareEnix, why did you find this newsworthy? They have been practically synonymous with Denuvo for the past 5+ years.
Maybe save your headlines for when they “don’t” use this trash DRM. You know, when it’s actually news?
It runs well and plays great at 4k so i’m happy.
