It’s not necessarily that it’s tricky to crack (it’s certainly not easy, don’t get me wrong), but that there’s no point for a couple reasons that combine:
To crack a game you have to redo it any time there’s a major release of the game, such as DLC/expansion/major bug fix. The reasons for this are numerous and outside scope. But it takes time.
Most crackers can only do so many games, so they often wait until most or all major additions are out.
Denuvo is expensive and operates on a yearly license
Most game studios only license Denuvo for those first few update cycles when they get the most sales and then remove it themselves because of the cost
That means many don’t even bother trying to crack Denuvo because they just can wait it out. It’s a resource balancing game on both sides.
Yes, and the word going around is that the biggest cracker of Denuvo has been out of the game for a while. So Denuvo games aren’t being cracked at all.
There are many forms of DRM, but as much as Denuvo sucks, it’s probably the most effective nowadays.
That day or 2 is where the biggest sales numbers come from because people are too impatent to wait that long to throw money at a broken buggy microtransaction shit show.
And tbh it doesn’t look like they are particularly wrong
A day or two? I thought Denuvo was still very tricky to crack and only a couple insane people were able to do it.
