The funny thing is that, in my opinion, both are doing it for the same reason: Starbreese has (or had) money troubles, so they need all the possible goodwill to sell as many games as possible, and removing the hated Denuvo may help them. On the other hand, the ones behind Lies of P have realized that people are looking forward to their game, and have thought that adding Denuvo will ensure that people has to their game.

Denuvo is pretty sad because it only punishes people who buy your game and they seem to think someone pirating the game is a lost sale but since people who are going to pirate it were never going to buy it whether it had Denuvo or not it makes no sense and some of the info we have seen it's not cheap for publishers and/or developers to add it that they are just throwing money away. 

Indeed. To pretend that any pirated copy is a lost sell has been proven wrong many times before, but some developers or publishers (more likely the ones to blame), prefer to put that crap in the game, even if it ends hurting the paying customers more, than accept the possibility of losing one single sale.

Sad, but it's the reality we live in.

I didn't express myself properly, but you're absolutely right.

I meant a proper CoD port, because with the Switch we've seen some releases that were cloud streamed games, which is a bit like cheating.

But well, it's not like Activision launches (m)any other games besides CoD, right?

Anything from Blizzard, so Diablo may be ported, too

I'm not sure about Diablo. Blizzard seems more focused on porting Overwatch 2 to every possible platform to try to turn it into the success they hoped.

But well, who knows what they'll come up with.
