Stats-wise, they represent above 20% of all Denuvo usage in the industry.

I really hope someone figures out the sweetheart deal SEGA has with Denuvo as its in practically all of their games after a certain year carries this DRM. Do they have a member of Denuvo's board? How can they realistically afford all of these lifetime DRM contracts with each game?
18 Jun @ 10:35am 
Trust SEGA to announce Denuvo before even showing gameplay. Talk about having the wrong priorities.

Thank you, I added both.

No one seems to have brought it up here, but Denuvo listed on the Planet Zoo 2 store page.

Zero Xbox Game Studios' games have Denuvo.
I bet they will add DENUVO on fable just before it release !

Hi, Mellow is one of our members, he created the network and he invites who he thinks is a good fit for it.

I think the network is based more on investigation kind of groups, which this one isn't beyond deep diving into game files on steamdb and things like that.

The website will have more investigations and all that but the group won't. If he considers we would be a good fit I'm sure he'll let me know.
7 Jun @ 1:21pm 
Just as suggestion.
Group owner contacted to "Sentinel Network" yet? Mellow_Online1 is the guy who to ask.
Their announcement. Would be helpful to find this group there too. https://v1.steam.hlxgame.cc/groups/Sentinels_of_the_Store/discussions/17/597399610072287960/

Do not feed the troll.

It's Capcom, who are known as Crapcom. If there's a dumb decision to be made, their execs will speedrun it for the world record.
6 Jun @ 3:34am 
Let's wait a bit, quite a lot has changed since in terms of Denuvo's reliability and some companies are showing signs they're dropping it.
3 Jun @ 4:27pm 
I opened a thread about Denuvo in Onimusha. Feel free to chip in. :clickbutton:

Tomb Raider Legacy Of Atlantis has denuvo.
3 Jun @ 3:31am 
Oh this is a new one, I knew I added some to the curator before but not this one apparently. I will add it now, thank you.

For some reason it has the anti cheat too.
3 Jun @ 2:46am 
just a heads-up, Onimusha: Way of the Sword has denuvo, noticed it wasn't marked by the curator
25 May @ 2:37pm 
Afaik, it leaves only one small text file.

Denuvo Anti-Cheat on the other hand requires a system cleanup - but that's another can of worms.
25 May @ 2:32pm 
@lukaself
Isn't there some cases in which Denuvo leaves some part of the software after you uninstall the game, and that needs to be removed manually ?
25 May @ 2:26pm 
@Pillman Well, you got it now, might as well play it. The goal of most Denuvo users is to deprive you from your games... No sense giving SEGA what they want early just becase you disagree with their business practices.
25 May @ 1:49pm 
@Pillman
Just idle all Steam trading card drops from it.
25 May @ 1:07pm 
Err,guys this may sound a little weird but.....I was given Shin Megami Tensei V as gift and being a game published by Sega of course it has Denuvo.Should I play it or just let it sit in my library ?
22 May @ 5:09am 
With the downfall of Ubisoft, Bungie seems to be following suit.

LOL at Ubisoft. Let them burn to the ground for the million reasons.
But hey, reddit and legacy gaming "media" told us how AC: Shadows, SW Outlaws, and their other slop actually sold great.
Yasuke is indeed assassin. He managed to assassinate Ubisoft :steammocking:.
Keep going Yves Guillemot, I still have high hope you can burry them all alive.
Just triple down on modern live service slop with insane DRMs. We need more of it.

I find it humorous when you find dissenting posts in these Denuvo threads that support Denuvo. They are either bots or paid dissenters. I call them Lochlans after Lochlan in Braveheart. "lochlan turned for.... for much less" Longshanks

It doesn't have the ability to prevent cheating on its own, it just spies on you then reports any suspicious activity to the devs. It's usually used to protect micro transactions and has been used in only 8 minor games since it's creation and one AAA which got such an intense backlash for it they had to remove it almost immediately (Doom Eternal).
In any case, according to SteamDB, the concurrent player count has never risen up as a result of implementing that solution. Not exactly the hallmarks of a time proven software.
Arc Raider is going to add DENUVO ANTI CHEAT (NOT THE DRM) I don't know if is a good anti-cheat system.. If you know, please tell me !

Warning! Publisher has been deleting dozens of posts, banning users permanently and lying on the reason for the deleted posts.

To be fair, there are so many games in my backlog I still have to even touch that I'm not in any danger of running out of things to play. Same goes for books, music or movies, really; we produce too much content (and maybe even too much good content).
11 May @ 2:31pm 
Right? :etgpilot:
11 May @ 2:25pm 
Unsupported games and Denuvo infested ones really saving my wallet 🤷‍♂️
And Stranger Than Heaven to the ignore list

Denuvo Fatigue is setting in
4 May @ 7:09pm 
The Denuvo Watch Curator is now 30th on Steam in popularity. 🎉
1 May @ 8:36pm 
(the game itself looks cool though, a bit like those Themed Pinball machines that cropped up over time, terminator, star trek tng, etc ;)
1 May @ 8:35pm 
having a denuvo or similar on monopoly = great way to kill a multiplayer game and prevent more players from getting a game that benefits from more players :)
On an Monopoly game.... SERIOUS LEE
1 May @ 4:38am 
Indeed. It seems the free to play weekend saturated Denuvo's activation servers and blocked players.
We couldn't dream of a more perfect showcase of that DRM's downsides for the consumer.
1 May @ 4:36am 
It had Denuvo since it was announced.
30 Apr @ 8:54pm 
Looks like Sonic Racing Crossworlds now has Denuvo, saw a post on twitter where they were advertising a free play weekend but Denuvo is blocking players from even playing the game. Sega is historically known for their genius executive decisions, after all.

@lukaself

Hey, hey, but it doesn't have VMProtect, so it's a positive progression, right :steammocking:?
29 Apr @ 4:55pm 
@Emu The game removed Denuvo when they bought themselves back from SEGA. Despite that, the game still has an online check though.
29 Apr @ 4:52pm 
Typical Ubisoft :steamfacepalm:
Thanks for keeping an eye out!
29 Apr @ 4:03pm 
Company of Heroes 3 (app id 1677280) has “No longer using Denuvo.” informational review by curator, but on steam page it still says Incorporates 3rd-party DRM: Denuvo Anti-tamper, and also has standard denuvo related stuff mentioned in their eula that's listed on steam page. Is the denuvo on steam page outdated info and just never removed, or have they added it again?
25 Apr @ 5:42am 
They also added special visual effects, shockwaves when swords are clashing, flashing visual cues for counters... all feeling out of place.

Not that it'd have changed anything were it a good remake - I'm not buying anything from a company claiming we should get comfortable with not owning games.
