Plenty of singleplayer games are from indies, those more or less support the developer.

I'm sure most pirates don't sit here and want a crack for a 10-20€ Indie Game. But a 80€ Game (sometimes even with additional microtransaktions like skins etc.) Yeah I see that.

Any indie devs out there using Denuvo?

Just saying, indie devs just dont have the money and time to use denuvo

And you don't need to wait for indie games, though you might need to be patient about early access quality. But, as long as the dev(s) stick with it, even that can be satisfying to see the game improve from a janky boilerplate mess to wherever it is really headed.
