    I’m still gonna play it. This just changes whether I pay for it or not.

    I can’t wait for the day when Denuvo ends up scaring away more legitimate customers than it actually helps to sell the game. It seems like we are slowly getting there :')

      It’s way past that point long ago.

      But shareholders don’t understand that, so publishers will continue forcing developers to use it.

    The first game sold millions without any drm. Naturally, they had to add denuvo for the second game.

      Their publisher was bought by Embracer shortly after the release of Kingdom Come Deliverance, maybe they’re to blame here.

      Because it seems that whatever statistics Denuvo is peddling show that more sales are secured, even if it’s cracked in the first few weeks.

      Idk how true that is, obviously, just outlining why they’re buying into it.

        Doesn’t need to be true, just convincing to some suits

    I seriously considered preordering, seeing how much I enjoyed the first installment. Fortunately Denuvo prevented me from doing so. I’ll wait until that piece of trash is patched out, it’ll probably be cheaper by that time as well. Thanks Denuvo!

      And it’s not like a single player game gets worse over time. The player count is totally irrelevant and if 2 years from launch nobody is playing it it doesn’t affect your experience at all.

      This is a loss for Warhorse and a win for anyone that doesn’t need to play it now.

      Same. The first one is one of my favorite games of all time and I’m really looking forward for the second game, but fuck denuvo so very very much.

    I also have stop being interested in games because of Denuvo. Understandable.

    Oh no, they’re putting denuvo on it? Man I loved the first game. I don’t think they even had anything close to a problem with piracy because it was a huge hit. Like, it not only did amazing for Warhorse Studios, but it made a huge tourism jump for the region.

    That’s a bummer, and as much as I want to support KC:D II, I can’t support denuvo.
