I love that pirate groups still use ascii text art in their release notes. It’s like a little piece of the world that hasn’t changed in 30 years.
I need to find out how to make these. Mostly just cause I like it.
I really felt cheated that no one was insulted, no rants were frothed, no theories conspiracied in this nfo. All we got was relevant information and kindness.
I’m kidding obvs
Bland release notes.
I wanted some spicy ✨bipolar ranting✨
Not even transphobia? But how will I justify my Vtuber hatemail now? /jk
John…I’m watching you…
Starfield and Friends
To be fair it’s the exact same bypass as any other Steam game. Any steam emulator would work.
Eagerly waiting for the videos of every Starfield’s fade-to-black screen transitioning back into Skyrim’s opening
Awe as a dev this kind of bums me out a little. I wonder that they used for DRM. Those sales go directly to the devs in way of raises and retention.
Granted this is not EA where i worked, but if you enjoy the game, i encourage you to buy it.
Also NOTE: I DO NOT SUPPORT DRM, just the pay checks of the devs as i was one for quite some time.
I agree with you, but I think both of us about to be downvoted by these cheapskates lol
I’ve thought about this. I think that happened was because of timelines, they released a super early build, fuckin producers.
It’s not the worst thing for an early access game to be cracked, honestly. If the game is has more eyes, that’s great. I am curious about what is out now however.
I am also curious about if the cracked version can be updated with content once the game goes live. Like i have no idea when that is or if it has already happened.
Totally agree on the paycheck. However we need to stop acting like piracy is bad only. Buy the things you really enjoy and support the creator(s).
Back in the days a friend suggested i buy Skyrim and i was like: “Uuh not sure if i want to spend that kind of money on a 2yo game”. But since he was quite a fan, i pirated it. Soon after I bought the LE version and today it is still my most played game.
NGL: i also pirated many things of which i never bought the original version. But because of the bay i also bought some things i most likely wouldn’t have without.
I don’t think piracy is bad lol i do think mega corporate publishers have bad practices for sure. Like cool, the one i worked for is publicly traded. Awesome. Every action is greed motivated. I hate that.
Every time i loose hope in games i just play undertale and ignore the world. >.>
You realize this is a forum, actually a whole instance, that centers around piracy, right?
Yeah! You also realize this is a group full of intelligent people right? It’s the whole reason why i chose this instance.
Intelligent enough not to pirate?

What do you mean you’re a saltbox contributor? How does that fit into context?
I would think that it’s cheap availability on GamePass and likelihood of frequent updates would make for a muted response to this one.
Plus I don’t think it was protected to start with for modding purposes. People will be flying around in Thomas the Tank Engine by the end of next week.
For these reasons, I’d rather buy Bethesda games. As a company, they aren’t assholes. I’d hate for them to get bought out by ea or something like all the rest.
“Cracked” meaning having replaced a dll file
They don’t even replace the DLL file for you! After you run the RUNE installer, you have to copy the emulator yourself
You can just click the checkbox for “Copy crack to install directory” to get the installer to do everything for you.
I’m not sure why that isn’t the default.
Did starfield not have denuvo drm. I thought most Bethesda games did.
Bethesda Game Studios games don’t have DRM like Denuvo. BGS and Bethesda Softworks are two different entities. ID, MachineGames and other Zenimax studios tend to have DRM, not BGS.
On the other hand, didn’t Denuvo come out after Fallout 4 launched? So what would they even protect, 76?
No, Denuvo was first used in Sept. 2014 and Fallout 4 came out Nov. 2015.
Why did you start with No?
“Didn’t Denuvo come out after Fallout 4 launched?”
“No, it came out a bit more than a year earlier.”
Ah. Well F4 didn’t have it on launch
None of them do. It would fuck with people’s ability to make mods for them.
Not necessairly (well, goodbye to Starfield Script Extender in that case). But I think it’s more that Gamebryo can’t integrate Denuvo lol
It would also be unplayably slow. Bethesda games aren’t known for performance even without Denuvo slowing them down.
Lets not pretend that there aren’t Denuvo games without performance issues…
Unless I’m mistaken, Denuvo constantly encrypts and decrypts everything in the process’ memory, including executable code, in order to conceal it. There is no way to do that without massive performance overhead.
There are uncracked Denuvo games to this day that don’t have performance issues. Not everyone is incompetent in implementing it. That doesn’t mean I’m defending it (but Reddit/Lemmy will like to take any sort of non-attack as defense sooooo), I’m just saying that there are Denuvo games that don’t suffer performance issues.
Now imagine how fast they’d be without Denuvo.
Hol-eee shit. My GTX 1070 doesn’t meet minimum requirements…and it just won’t boot? Oh wow.
Who the hell are they expecting is going to play this game? Only trust fund kids?
Adults with jobs?
