I mean that Denuvo WILL cause performance drops, and if said malware needs to be cracked and removed in order to emulate it, it means the emulators don’t have to bother emulating the built-in malware, and can instead use more resources to run the game. Even better than currently.
And will any of this help with piracy? Well, the average user will no longer be able to backup the official version, and you’d be breaking the law anyways, if you cracked it, so there is “no extra harm” skipping the part where you buy the official version, instead of just downloading the already cracked version. Sure, you risk getting malware, but with the official one you are sure to get malware.
[EDIT]: Let’s add: I don’t advocate for piracy, but if piracy is more convinient that the official route, it’s what will drive those who don’t mond pirating stuff.
