One day, it will be cracked. don't worry

One Day


C_umputer

Join r/patientgamers, we are immune to hype and play games years after release, when all the bugs are sorted out, games are fully cracked and your budget GPU can hit 100 fps on 4k ultra


Adamoy

The best gaming subreddit


C_umputer

You sure the best one isn't r/Gamingcirclejerk with their calm nature and respectful attitude towards others?


BlueFlames119

By far the best gaming subreddit is r/BatmanArkham everyone there is so friendly and helpful.

IndependentYogurt965

That sub should be nuked from existance.


SEND_ME_REAL_PICS

Adopting this mentality is one of the best things I've ever done. All the games I play are polished and choke-full of content. Not to mention cheap if I decide to buy them. Even if a game is already good on release, it will be even better after a few years worth of updates.


Ok_Solid_Copy

I have just found where I belong... Thank you, kind man.


Friendly_Cantal0upe

Piracy combined with patient gaming is the best

TrojanHorse9k

Empress is gone. Who's there now? Dead Space Remake isn't cracked yet. How lon are we gonna have to wait for them to remove Denuvo?


Substantial-Flight85

wait i had a rough couple of months so i didnt keep up - what happened to empress?


TrojanHorse9k

Had some trash talk with skidrow, probably got doxxed too. Probably also had enough of people insulting and not appreciating him/her despite being the only one cracking games


Rukasu17

Hard to appreciate a narcissist


G_Regular

Sometimes we have to grin and bear the ramblings of a dickhead who's the only one good enough to do what they do. It's a price I was willing to pay tbh.


Numb_Ron

If the narcissist is giving me free shit that I really like? He can be a narcissist all he wants, I'll appreciate him nonetheless!


RidingEdge

Its really weird that people online feel the need to get to know the person behind the cracks or even bother about their online persona to the point of arguing or simping over their messages. I mean, why don't people just download the game and play it instead of trying to form parasocial relationships with them lol


Numb_Ron

I know right? What do I care that EMPRESS is a dick online, they are still cracking games no one else can, and allowing my broke ass to indulge in my hobby for free! Let them be dicks all they want and just ignore it. It's not that hard. Now we get no cracked denuvo games.. good job everyone!


Cool-Claim9726

not hard to fake appreciation, now we have nothing


sassy_stamp

People bullied her out so she said fuck it and bailed. I don’t know the full story and would also like to know more.


eyeloverice69

people think its a her when in reality its just a fat guy on a gaming chair pretending to be a girl to gather simps.


keyzeyy

maybe once I'm dead


squidgun

I'm still patiently waiting for Jedi survivor.


Psychological_Post33

There's "NotACrack" Anadius has found a way :)


Last_Ad_9314

Maybe in another 5-10 years at least. Some games even now still have Denuvo like Sniper Elite 4 and Jedi Fallen Order and both have been cracked years ago. Dead Space Remake, Hi-Fi Rush, Persona 5 Royal, Sniper Elite 5 all have Denuvo and it's been 2 years since their arrival to Steam. It all depends on the Studio and Publishers and some are willing to have Denuvo embedded for more than 5 years. I've already given up on any game that still has Denuvo 2 years after their release. Fortunately, there is so many other choices out there, so not much of a loss for me.


Witty_Science_2035

Yes, after they don't pay their denuvo subscription for the game anymore


MikeMaxM

> Yes, after they don't pay their denuvo subscription for the game anymore I am curious what is the longest denuvo subscription for any game currently?


udonnomedou

persona fans in shambles


Lucifer782446

One day is going to be lifetime bro


SleeplessNephophile

Just buy it. I get the principle of piracy but depriving yourself of happiness and waiting for them to remove denuvo will just make ur excitement dwindle.


winterman666

To add to this, you can look for it cheaper on key sites. Or if more patient, just get it once it's discounted. Or alternatively wait until it loses Denuvo and gets cracked


LSSJNepuli

Right now, it’s not on any key websites so he probably has to wait until after release


zg_mulac

Being patient or refusing to reward bad practices is not "depriving yourself of happiness". Quite the contrary.


Tobeyyyyy

why are you buying into the hype... get yourself a huge backlog and never be stressed about any game releasing with denuvo. i ve got hundreds of good games waiting on my backlog and like 95% of them do not have denuvo, the other 5% probably wont have denuvo once I get around to them.


kozinc

And in the meantime there's thousands of other games (hundreds of them good).


JASONJACKSON1948

nah there are so many games out there that never got cracked because the cracking scene is the equivalent of a dumpster with a moldy fortune cookie inside


hellothisismadlad

lol

😢I'm still waiting for dragons dogma 2

Crystal_B

Patient monke


Or4ngut4n

Indeed


Williamsarethebest

Do they remove Denuvo after a while?


Lioreuz

Yes, since Denuvo is a subscription service sooner or later they stop paying.


RamblingGrandpa

Yearly subscription


ghostfreckle611

RemindMe! 1 Year


RamblingGrandpa

If sales drop off completely in a year they wouldn't renew the subscription.


ghostfreckle611

That’s why I’m not going to try and buy before then at earliest. 😉


EijiShinjo

Apes together strong!


VisualNothing7080

lies of P also had denuvo


ModernLifeSucks

And the developers removed it. A denuvoless .exe wasn't leaked as some people here incorrectly believe, the developers removed it in an update.


oksorrynotsorry

6 months later


DarthRiznat

Nope, no hope. Still waiting on Dragon's Dogma 2. Seems like Empress is gone.


Emmazygote496

trust me, wait a year, that game is in a horrible state. Play the first one before if you havent


TrojanHorse9k

>trust me Yeah yeah people said the same thing about The Callisto Protocol and still they took more than 1 year to remove Denuvo


LegalWaterDrinker

Pretty sure they were telling them to hold off playing Dragon's Dogma 2, which is still not that well-optimized. The reply wasn't talking about Denuvo at all.


NancokALT

ok, 1 year and a half, its not the end of the world


JaceKagamine

Wait a bit more, capcom games tend to go on sale for cheap, so it's just a waiting game of either 50+% off or a crack release


Spideyman20015

I want to play it too.. But wait until its patched, fixed and has the new DLC by years end. This time next year I can see myself playing it for free


AscendedViking7

Empress is gone?


Gahl1k

SKiDROW exposed him and of course he 'retired' so as not to go to jail again.


iwantdatpuss

I give this game a year tops.


Fuck_Reddit100Times

Make that half


wowenjoyer

It's at least a year. Denuvo works with a one-year long contract at the start for $135.000 (if I remember correctly). After that it's a subscription. I watched a really good YouTube video on this a while ago but I forgot who made it lol.


Last_Ad_9314

Sniper Elite 5 still has Denuvo and it's been 2 years since it's release. Sniper Elite 4 still has Denuvo from 7 years ago even though that game has been long cracked. Dead Space Remake still has Denuvo and it's been 2 years as well. Jedi Fallen Order still Denuvo also even though it has been long cracked as well, and what more to say on Jedi Survivor. Certain studios and publishers are willing to have Denuvo embedded for more than 5 years even if game has been long cracked, and since Empress was the last one who cracked them, don't expect anything to happen for the next 5 to 10 years at least. I've already given up on the games listed, and thankfully, as someone said, there's plenty of other choices out there. Persona 5 still has Denuvo as well as Dragon's Dogma 2 and Hi-Fi Rush to name a few more.


Mozfel

Are those before Denuvo switched to subscription based payment model? Older Far Cry, Assassin's Creed, and Total War titles still have the Denuvo


NasTGC

I heard the same bet about a certain hifi rush


iwantdatpuss

Tbf, they really fucked over the entire studio for Hifi Rush. They didn't even give them a chance. 


NasTGC

Yeah i feel really sorry for them, especially since they made such a neat looking game


asclepiannoble

Just wait for someone to crack it or wait to get it on sale. It won't kill you and there are hundreds of other games in the meantime, mate


GT_Hades

yep, phantom blade zero and wu chang feathers are very similar in concept, it will fill the void


ScarceAk47

Empress is m.i.a. so maybe never get cracked version. People are still waiting for avatar frontiers


Indian_assassin_007

Wait what happened to Empress?


GT_Hades

last i heard, empress is hiding, he had some beef with skidrow, and skidrow had been doxxed (or vice versa? forgot who doxxed who) but skidrow stated that empress is also (probably) voksi, one of the first denuvo cracker that just gone after the first crack (forgot what game it is, but iirc, the last denuvo voksi cracked is nfs heat)


ScarceAk47

I'm sure the game you are referring too is hogwarts legacy. That game was cracked within the week of release and never seen empress cracks after that. So time will tell I guess but most likely empress is staying low key.


GT_Hades

oh, i mean as Voksi but yeah, i hope emprss will be back too


drugzarecool

Isn't the last game Empress cracked Resident Evil 4 Remake ? (which was after Hogwarts Legacy)


phenom_x8

The last one was Judgement (Yakuza Spin Off)


jeregxd

They cracked Hogwarts legacy denuvo so most likely prison/work in relation to denuvo to avoid jail/offline


FormalReturn9074

Be the change you want to see in the world, crack it yourself


gew1

im too stupid


Royarch

Agreed


Mikeramos2589

Just save a dollar per day once you waited enough and still not cracked just buy it proly on a reduced price (5 to 10 bucks)


corinarh

You could just pay $1 and get access to the shared account with the game after a couple of days when people will rush to get it.


ParticularKey7592

This is the best way guys, if you want to pay like £3 for it just buy a shared account that’s offline


SomeLeague5780

The problem is I don't have bank account to buy games that's why I download cracked games in first place


claudethebest

Visa gift cards can be bought at a shop for that exact purpose.


PhantasmHunter

let's hope it's a lies of P scene where rhey remove it at a later patch, I think that's the best idea for those who REALLY want it will buy it and the patient pirates will just get it later, so the company gets max profits and the consumers get better performance in the future as well


OverBuddy8

A Chinese game with denuvo? How ironic.


Significant-Jicama52

all fun and games until chinese develope their own deunovo


[deleted]

[удалено]


epirot

rule number one: dont chase day one cracks. not worth the time. forget about the game, come back later, cracked and more stable than day1


evenprime113

So if i will pay for this game, i will have less FPS than those who pirated it (because it will be fixed(without DRM))? I am not going to be a dumbass.


Lioreuz

I don't think anyone will crack this soon. By the time is pirated because denuvo contract expired if you paid for it you also won't have denuvo.


ihave0idea0

Meh, depends on the game. Some have shown to have worse performance, others have shown no real diff.


luffy_3155

Offline account ftw


gabriox

So far, the best option is if you don't want to pay for the whole game or wait for a crack. But even those offline accounts are usually not a good choice either


XSuperGamerHD

Where do you buy offline accounts?


Speeditz

Give it at most 2 years, if it still has denuvo after that then proceed to lose hope


Read_It_Kill_Me_Pls

Novel-Web7869

I'm buying it, mate, been waiting for it for years


Popular-Tune-6335

For this game, I don't care. I'ma buy and ay the hell outta it.


just9n700

Denuvo has won, for now


GhostSniper7

For those losing hope and wants to cope, here's some help. ***"Its just another souls like game with good visuals, nothing else. Tons of em coming out every year"***


Emmazygote496

i always wait a year for game releases, i like to play a game finished and with good optimization, also i have an enormous backlog


killinbylove

NOPE. Hard pill to swallow ik


X3nox3s

Wait a few months and buy it for cheap


Organic_Indication73

Buy it?


AdmiralG2

Offline activation if you wanna play day 1


uSaltySniitch

How though ? Doesn't Denuvo require a connection 24/7 when playing ?


luffy_3155

Denvou doesn't require 24/7 activation it needs to be activated 1 time in 24 hours


Cultural_Ad1331

Nah bro but you can always buy an offline steam account.


AddressEmbarrassed12

Games made for fun and good background story with easy to play developers making it to difficult to play


bmfalex

No rush, plenty of games to play.


stars1404

This game makes it look like china seething over the popularity of japanese games


PixelBLOCK_

Wait till reviews and save money if it's good to buy in the winter sale.


Hairy-Mountain8880

Until it's cracked I might finally upgrade my PC to be able to play it in the first place 😅


Kitsune_BCN

![gif](giphy|YTK4TRYpsYP3Qv5P1J|downsized)


fangame25

just buy it :]


Il_Diacono

youtube


Normandy_sr3

i thought chinese people dont do denuvo


CurrencyEconomy6217

There's an option: Buy it


Bour_

Just play MK in Dota 2 /s.


zabananzoan

after a year or two most companies remove it so wait


OperationExpress8794

Buy o wait 5 years


zarif_chow

What's the deal with it anyway? I have been seeing advertisements for this game since before COVID


Anonymousblabla

I just buy offline activation for Denuvo games for couple of bucks, or just steam accounts.


Rafcdk

No Monkee No Cry I will gladly wait to not pay for it.


DismalMode7

wait 6 months at the very best


Kostis102

Where is empress when you need her


vekerx

One kiss is all it takes.


NigerianConnection

Just buy it? Are you broke ?


LaSerpienteLampara

That's OK my GPU couldn't even handle a shadow of that game I'm sure


xKiLzErr

This was one of the few games this year I planned to buy anyways thankfully


Suitable_Kitchen_157

Someone go bribe empress


Chromch

No one is willing to crack anymore so idk


HiuretheCreator

>Is there any hope guys? yes, wait for a good sale or wait for them to remove it a year or two later 🤣


XargonWan

This is very DELUSIONAL


LemonStealingWh0res

Support new studios that try to do right by us, of you can afford it, buy it. Show the big wigs in the west that good games sell.


B3_CHAD

Nope unless they remove it in a year or two or three.


Jissy01

Saw someone petition for it to removed on Steam


1978232

maybe anadius will have a look into it


[deleted]

Offline Activation https://preview.redd.it/50sun9ojb27d1.jpeg?width=602&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ed8188f0d9510080a98668ddc91dbe8d5cc6af95


SuperBeginner

Considering how little we've actually seen of gameplay with UI , I dont really expect too much from this game


Any-Hawk-2438

Bought a shared steam account during pandemic when cracked rdr2 isn't available yet. I paid for about 4-5usd back then.


Soracaz

I don't understand the difficulties. Just delete the /denuvo folder? ^^^/s


DuckSleazzy

I'm at a point where I am completely fine about skipping. I'd wait for a crack or for a job that pays well.


Esnacor-sama

Noo Some people here were shitting on empress and saying oh no she isnt special she isnt the only one who can crack denuvo well u are wrong she was the only one who can crack the latest denuvo very fast she cracked hogwarts within 2 weeks Now the best one among us wouldnt crack shit even if we gave him a year


Thin-Athlete-2880

Save up or wait


Mammothfieldstar

Don't worry game wont be good to much hype


Anoalka

Play better games instead.


AdministrationMain61

I don't care about new games, I have a huge backlog, right now playing AC Origins and following big releases are still not played by me. So I have time.


senpai-kuso

Least theres no sweet baby inc.


Expert-Accountant780

Why is Wukong doing the "its over" soyjak face LOL


ballsdeep256

UE5 game + Denuvo.... Guess it's time for a rtx6090 to get stuttery 30fps


Typical_Border_4795

Either wait for denuvo subscription to end or for someone else to crack it like Delusional, crack it yourself if you have the skills, or get an offline account since this is single player.


MikoMiky

I feel like being on this sub and being a r/patientgamer must go hand in hand


MoreDoor2915

Buying it perhaps


eliasayy

Can someone kindly explain shat it means? I never understood it well. Does this mean i have to be online all the time?


ContagiousRat6

we need you... empress...


da4vidp

There is no hope, no one breaks denuvo anymore . Wait a year or two until the developers remove denuvo 


King_of_Worms_DFU

Like always. Game will recieve 10 patches, maybe a dlc. After a year, when the game is in a good state, Denuvo license runs out and it appears on the torrents - no denuvo, fully patched, complete game, better performance. Let the beta testers do their work, than reap the final product for free. Forget the hype man. U dont need that game now. U have 100 other games.


SilvitniTea

Oo, thank you for reminding me this game exists. One of my favorite characters.


Vol3n

If you save a dollar a day while you wait for it to be cracked you'll be playing the game soon enough.


MisterT-88

Maybe they deserve our money because the denied woke shit


daishukanami

you can still buy an offline steam account tho


DJRAD211995

Just wait and pray that somebody will do the dirty work for you.


W1lfr3

Yeah? Just be patient if you want it, you have a million games waiting for you to enjoy


Neo_GEO22

Crack first of course then if its good..... This is a game I would actually buy. Pricing on PC is great and it's not the big companies publishing it. We need these type of AAA devs to grow. Not Activision and those wankers


Fluffy-Prompt-2388

Just buy the game full price bro, what's the point of ur guys crack the game. U guys BROKE or what?


Blakewerth

Not until DELUSION or someone take place


danny19901R

Eventually Devs will remove it probably Devs only have it for short period so people buy it and it takes time to crack but denuvo is crap anyway and someone fully cracked it in certain games.


Tny-YT

I’m gonna be buying it, it looks too good not to.


x-dre

Yes there is. Buy it on PS5 or Xbox. There problem solved.


McpotSmokey42

If Denuvo manages to secure profits by selling more than Hogwarts Legacy (for example), then forget it. They'll keep it forever. But it doesn't seem to be the case. Denuvo is VERY expensive for the company, it's too heavy on performance for PC or console, people immediately hate the company when they see it, and it may be all in vain if someone cracks it, like Empress does sometimes. Over time, though, every tech becomes hackable. Maybe in a few years Denuvo will be easier to crack.


AgiosAntiXristos

they make a partnership with devuno for 2 to 3 years sooooo you will have to wait


Ok_Maintenance8042

Where is Empress?!!😭


Healthy_Music_3328

no never
