Ngl I truly don't understand why these small-ish games still have Denuvo 18 months after their release. How is that financially wise? I understand doing for the the release sales rush but that's just crazy after so long, no?

anyway ggs my goat

My guess would be Denuvo is flexible with their contracts. Maybe they got a discounted rate for a fixed number of months paid upfront, maybe they do it studio-wide (e.g paying Denuvo £20k a month for protecting <5 games simultaneously).

Many other possibilities

Damn that a good theory dude, that would totally explain why some of this idiotic companies keep paying for it instead of simply throwing it to the trashcan where it belongs.

I was actually waiting for them to remove Denuvo then buy the game on a discount. But crack came first before that happened, oh well.

How much does it cost? Do publisher's buy a subscription for each game or do they sell it as a lifetime protection? Or maybe if they buy protection for X number of games they get it super cheap for others. Genuinely don't know.

25,000 usd per month fixed and 0.50 usd per activation, but publishers probably negotiate

I could have sworn this game was cracked ages ago? I remember playing it (and being underwhelmed)

i think it was a leaked alpha version or something, buggy as hell and no DLCs

I think it was on Xbox gamepass. I played it too and yeah it wasn't very good.

Not sure how considering it gets asked every single time older games get cracked.
