During this Steam Summer Sale, I was at the brink of buying Ace Combat 7 (it reached a 75% discount, the max most Bandai Namco titles get), but just when I was going to buy it I checked the discussions and found that it still has Denuvo. I don't know why it's there as some newer games from the publisher have already rewmoved it, but not for that game. And so, I did not buy it. I'll get it when they remove that crap, or I'll get Project Wingman first and forget about AC 7. |
That sucks, hopefully they'll patch it out. Usually publishers remove it after a couple years but its nonsense. Not only do we get some optimized and lazy ports on PC, but also this crap to deal with. We've seen performance hits on Denuvo DRM'd games like DMC and performance got way better once removed. Shame it hurts people who buy the game while people who don't get a better experience. Its totally backwards and wished more people voted with their wallets.
Looks like Capcom learnt nothing from RE7 and DMC 5 so I guess I won't be buying those games on PC; until its removed and for sub £5 in a Steam sale.
