    Just to clarify, this doesn’t mean that the game is now DRM free. They just replaced it with Enigma. I’m not up to date with what Enigma does differently but it might be important to some.

      This is a good callout. If enigma is still an always online DRM that’s still a dealbreaker for me. Will have to check

    I still find it crazy that they even bother with this nonsense nowadays. Piracy used to absolutely rampant. Everyone was doing it and there wasn’t any shame in it at all. I’ve haven’t heard of anyone pirating a game IRL in years apart from old games that can’t be purchased anymore.

      If there is a AAAA title I need to play, I’ll pirate it, because fuck investors coming to this space and ruining it for everyone. However, this remains hypothetical since one has never come along that I’d rather play than the games I buy from actual human beings.

    Not shocking considerimg Denuvo is an ongoing cost (IIRC) and Kunitsu is over the hump of the majority of its sales.

    I’ve recently transitioned to Linux. I’ve anyways steered clear off kernel level anti cheats for obvious reasons. How do these work on Linux if the game enables it for Linux? Is it still as invasive as Windows and does it still remain installed after uninstalling the game?
