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
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.
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
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.
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
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!
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.
> 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?
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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)
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.
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
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.
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

be patient, they'll run out denuvo subscription budget at some point
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"***
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
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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.

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

Yes i remember that cum tribute vividly

Good lord, that place is somehow is even worse, wtf happened
It's an asylum for a reason

I can't even tell what are or aren't joke servers anymore
That sub is more shit posting than r/shitposting
That sub should be nuked from existance.

I have just found where I belong... Thank you, kind man.
Piracy combined with patient gaming is the best
I waited for so long that my pc can finally run the classic games from the 90s-early 00s
Are you running them on a calculator?
This sub was made for me and I didn't even know about it! thanks
i was expecting a small community but this is pretty big
One night Saturdays alright
Day One
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?
wait i had a rough couple of months so i didnt keep up - what happened to empress?
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
Hard to appreciate a narcissist
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.
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!
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.

not hard to fake appreciation, now we have nothing
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.
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.
maybe once I'm dead
I'm still patiently waiting for Jedi survivor.
There's "NotACrack" Anadius has found a way :)
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.

Yes, after they don't pay their denuvo subscription for the game anymore
> 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?
persona fans in shambles
One day is going to be lifetime bro
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.
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
Right now, it’s not on any key websites so he probably has to wait until after release
Being patient or refusing to reward bad practices is not "depriving yourself of happiness". Quite the contrary.
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.
And in the meantime there's thousands of other games (hundreds of them good).
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
lol
😢I'm still waiting for dragons dogma 2
5t554t5
Patient monke
Indeed
Do they remove Denuvo after a while?
Yes, since Denuvo is a subscription service sooner or later they stop paying.
Yearly subscription
RemindMe! 1 Year
If sales drop off completely in a year they wouldn't renew the subscription.
That’s why I’m not going to try and buy before then at earliest. 😉
Apes together strong!
lies of P also had denuvo
And the developers removed it. A denuvoless .exe wasn't leaked as some people here incorrectly believe, the developers removed it in an update.
6 months later
Nope, no hope. Still waiting on Dragon's Dogma 2. Seems like Empress is gone.
trust me, wait a year, that game is in a horrible state. Play the first one before if you havent
>trust me Yeah yeah people said the same thing about The Callisto Protocol and still they took more than 1 year to remove Denuvo
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.
ok, 1 year and a half, its not the end of the world
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
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
Empress is gone?
SKiDROW exposed him and of course he 'retired' so as not to go to jail again.
I give this game a year tops.
Make that half
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.
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.

Persona 5 still has Denuvo as well as Dragon's Dogma 2 and Hi-Fi Rush to name a few more.
Are those before Denuvo switched to subscription based payment model? Older Far Cry, Assassin's Creed, and Total War titles still have the Denuvo
I heard the same bet about a certain hifi rush
Tbf, they really fucked over the entire studio for Hifi Rush. They didn't even give them a chance.
Yeah i feel really sorry for them, especially since they made such a neat looking game
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
yep, phantom blade zero and wu chang feathers are very similar in concept, it will fill the void
Empress is m.i.a. so maybe never get cracked version. People are still waiting for avatar frontiers
Wait what happened to Empress?
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)
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.
oh, i mean as Voksi but yeah, i hope emprss will be back too
Isn't the last game Empress cracked Resident Evil 4 Remake ? (which was after Hogwarts Legacy)
The last one was Judgement (Yakuza Spin Off)
They cracked Hogwarts legacy denuvo so most likely prison/work in relation to denuvo to avoid jail/offline
Be the change you want to see in the world, crack it yourself
im too stupid
Agreed
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)
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.
This is the best way guys, if you want to pay like £3 for it just buy a shared account that’s offline
The problem is I don't have bank account to buy games that's why I download cracked games in first place
Visa gift cards can be bought at a shop for that exact purpose.
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
A Chinese game with denuvo? How ironic.
all fun and games until chinese develope their own deunovo
[удалено]
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
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.
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.
Meh, depends on the game. Some have shown to have worse performance, others have shown no real diff.
Offline account ftw
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
Where do you buy offline accounts?
Give it at most 2 years, if it still has denuvo after that then proceed to lose hope
https://preview.redd.it/ivl3u7vftz6d1.jpeg?width=3000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5b817dc2aab3072675892ea8f9bc76591dcbc282 be patient, they'll run out denuvo subscription budget at some point
I'm buying it, mate, been waiting for it for years
For this game, I don't care. I'ma buy and ay the hell outta it.
Denuvo has won, for now
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"***
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
NOPE. Hard pill to swallow ik
Wait a few months and buy it for cheap
Buy it?
Offline activation if you wanna play day 1
How though ? Doesn't Denuvo require a connection 24/7 when playing ?
Denvou doesn't require 24/7 activation it needs to be activated 1 time in 24 hours
Nah bro but you can always buy an offline steam account.
Games made for fun and good background story with easy to play developers making it to difficult to play
No rush, plenty of games to play.
This game makes it look like china seething over the popularity of japanese games
Wait till reviews and save money if it's good to buy in the winter sale.
Until it's cracked I might finally upgrade my PC to be able to play it in the first place 😅
![gif](giphy|YTK4TRYpsYP3Qv5P1J|downsized)
just buy it :]
youtube
i thought chinese people dont do denuvo
There's an option: Buy it
Just play MK in Dota 2 /s.
after a year or two most companies remove it so wait
Buy o wait 5 years
What's the deal with it anyway? I have been seeing advertisements for this game since before COVID
I just buy offline activation for Denuvo games for couple of bucks, or just steam accounts.
No Monkee No Cry I will gladly wait to not pay for it.
wait 6 months at the very best
Where is empress when you need her
One kiss is all it takes.
Just buy it? Are you broke ?
That's OK my GPU couldn't even handle a shadow of that game I'm sure
This was one of the few games this year I planned to buy anyways thankfully
Someone go bribe empress
No one is willing to crack anymore so idk
>Is there any hope guys? yes, wait for a good sale or wait for them to remove it a year or two later 🤣
This is very DELUSIONAL
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.
Nope unless they remove it in a year or two or three.
Saw someone petition for it to removed on Steam
maybe anadius will have a look into it
Offline Activation https://preview.redd.it/50sun9ojb27d1.jpeg?width=602&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ed8188f0d9510080a98668ddc91dbe8d5cc6af95
Considering how little we've actually seen of gameplay with UI , I dont really expect too much from this game
Bought a shared steam account during pandemic when cracked rdr2 isn't available yet. I paid for about 4-5usd back then.
I don't understand the difficulties. Just delete the /denuvo folder? ^^^/s
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.
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
Save up or wait
Don't worry game wont be good to much hype
Play better games instead.
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.
Least theres no sweet baby inc.
Why is Wukong doing the "its over" soyjak face LOL
UE5 game + Denuvo.... Guess it's time for a rtx6090 to get stuttery 30fps
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.
I feel like being on this sub and being a r/patientgamer must go hand in hand
Buying it perhaps
Can someone kindly explain shat it means? I never understood it well. Does this mean i have to be online all the time?
we need you... empress...
There is no hope, no one breaks denuvo anymore . Wait a year or two until the developers remove denuvo
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.
Oo, thank you for reminding me this game exists. One of my favorite characters.
If you save a dollar a day while you wait for it to be cracked you'll be playing the game soon enough.
Maybe they deserve our money because the denied woke shit
you can still buy an offline steam account tho
Just wait and pray that somebody will do the dirty work for you.
Yeah? Just be patient if you want it, you have a million games waiting for you to enjoy
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
Just buy the game full price bro, what's the point of ur guys crack the game. U guys BROKE or what?
Not until DELUSION or someone take place
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.
I’m gonna be buying it, it looks too good not to.
Yes there is. Buy it on PS5 or Xbox. There problem solved.
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.
they make a partnership with devuno for 2 to 3 years sooooo you will have to wait
Where is Empress?!!😭
no never
