The official Steam page for Deep Silver and Starbreeze’s PAYDAY 3 game has been updated to show the use of this ever-controversial third-party DRM.

seems like a great way to punish honest people every time they try to play your game and mildly inconvenience pirates for about a week

Fwiw, Denuvo is actually really hard to crack. There's like one well-known person who is capable and she's incredibly unlikeable. Agreeable sentiment though; Denuvo sucks and harms legitimate consumers (arguably more than it inconveniences pirates).

I really doubt pirates or even any average person are going to worry about the beliefs of the person cracking the game.

Eh that's not really true. When she was working on Hogwarts Legacy that's when her really crazy side showed and she got a massive cult following as a result.

I'm not denying any of that. But are you going to consider that when you're downloading the cracked version of your favourite game?

What happened and who is this person? Totally out of the loop here?!
