Pirates are finding it harder to crack new PC games
While hackers from 3DM did break an early Denuvo-locked title, Dragon Age: Inquisition, the tech has been improved over the intervening year. It's nearly unheard of for PC games to remain uncracked for more than a few weeks -- often, they're broken before they even go on sale. If the recent Denuvo games remain locked for much longer, pirates may give up and either buy them on Steam or Origin or move on to something else. Suffice to say, the gaming industry will be keeping a close eye on what happens.

More people on PC do need to pay for games , you can literally pick up most games you want for free and its sort of unfair on the people that made the games.

sales will dip. I will not buy something i cant try first. We dont just download them to have them for free. Its hard to blindly throw away 60$. Its not like a movie a trailer just doesn't give the experience. plus you get no online with pirated versions.

It's good, but devs have to pay a hell of a lot for this Denuvo system. So I cannot see it being on every new game that comes out, but will make cracking AAA titles a lot harder...
Kudos to them.

Im quite against pirating games, but I can see why people do it. Good news because less pirating is a good thing.

Definitely helps out the game developers, they lose so much money to cracked/illegal versions of their games.
I don't see why it's so hard to buy the games, hell. I still buy music off of iTunes instead of downloading it.
