games

even if you compare elden ring in this in the "reuse" department, elden ring was a whole new map, and even if tons of enemies were spammed same animations from DS3/BB- plenty of new bosses. totks new content was basically just puzzles and like 3 new enemies, puzzles are the blunt of the content in a way, but theyre not the other 100 hours you spend playing the game, that's spent retreading the same exact ground as botw, with almost nothing new

reused sidequests, reused shrines even in some cases

bruh

is the elden ring bonus that fucking big

if the first boss is filtering people in AC6

i think the third boss will literally filter them even harder

shits literally touhou

this is not a shop

radical take here

i dont actually mind denuvo because retarded shit like it stimulates the economy

what?

makes crackers more prollific and skilled (some of which can use these feats to get real jobs) it sucks game companies/publishers dry

etc.

i enjoy the retarded companies that have zero use

denuvo accomplishes nothing

what does the "protection" entail?

but at the same time

it creates jobs

which is cool

Max, I legit don't understand your pov

I'm not saying Denuvo is the great satan or anything

?

denuvo has literally done nothing theoretically other than preforamnce in like 4 games

but how are you pro DRM, even for the meme

it gets cracked right away

i know someone who used cracking DRM

on a resume

to get into something

that's anything though

literally any github project, emulation, etc. etc.

Its like saying having unpatched security exploits in your banking website is good because whoever hacks it can later be hired for white hat hackings stuff by the bank

yeah but it was relevant to the actual job

Denuvo is funny, insofar as bad games spend a lot using it for zero reason

yes but usually people dont just do those randomly unless theyre a nerd

(and the tranny at their gamescom booth)

someone can be really into a game or something niche

and learn from it

denuvo literally does NOTHING

if it was spyware or like valorant anti-cheat tier

i would be entirely against it

but it does nothing

and instead just gets companies to waste money

I thought it made stuff run worse

yeah it did

it doesnt really do that anymore because people complained too much

so now denuvo is usually pretty shit and insta cracked

if their multiplayer anti-cheat actually works then cool

because it doesnt obfuscate as much

i mean

its impossible to make good anti-cheat now unless its literally spyware

is the issue

easy anti-cheat ignoring valorants is the "best anticheat" but theres plenty of cheats for easy anti-cheat games because you can just make a kernal/driver cheat

theres tons of tutorials on it

so unless you make your anticheat LITERAL SPYWARE

you cant have anticheat

I think the "it's good because people can white-hat it" is a weird take, but w/e

and yeah, anticheat is worse

esp now since people seem so moralfaggy about cheating

companies just need to make more stuff server side

lol

and then do what valve does

and honeypot their game

and check if someone is accessing values

and you literally just ban everyone thats ever touched those values

Battlebit was the one that made me sad

super fun, popular game

that gave in and implemented agressive anticheat for no reason

and probably catches 1% more people than if they just used something generic

i mean

realistically all devs should use easy anticheat

lol

stops 99% of cheaters

its cheapish

it stops script kiddies

I made a driver level anticheat for elden ring using an online guide to make them for fun and it worked

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

but 99% of people wouldnt be able to do that
