Annoying - the demo was really good, and ran great on Linux using Proton. Guess I’m going to be holding off on buying till it’s removed and on sale, then - there’s no point in buying a game early and it running like shit.
Bg3 is getting patch 3 in 5 days unless something changes so its gonna get even better in terms of performance tho no idea what else gets changef or added cept mac support
At least it's stated in the game's Steam page. Dead Space Remake has Denuvo since day 1 and there was no warning in their Steam page at all for a long time. Last time I checked they had added the warning, though.
I got caught out with sniper elite 5 in the same fashion. It also has a warning on it now. You don’t have to install Denuvo to play the game on that one, but you cannot play any multiplayer without it.
Isn’t that illegal in quite a few European countries? I vaguely remember something about 3th party software requirements needing to be disclosed some amount of time before release.
The DRM was added right as the game’s 72-hour early access period started, which is included as part of Lies of P‘s Deluxe Edition.
The actual work done to integrate Denuvo was far before release, of course, but it feels a bit sneaky to disclose the DRM as late as possible. I wonder if this is how it's disclosed for other games as well.
WTF. Luckily it isn’t an issue for me right now, but I guess I won’t be using Unity in future like I once thought I might.
I couldn’t find it in the article, but I assume this is only going forward and not somehow retroactive? Lots of amazing indie titles I’ve played run on Unity.
Alternative title: Unity about to get sued into settlement or bankruptcy due to legal fees by Nintendo, Sony, and a bunch of others over unilaterally announced installation fee.
I’m surprised it’s not per-seat or per-user. Not like the dev is getting more money if the user re-installs the game. Also not a fan of it being monthly. I get why you would charge twice if the user installs it twice since you may not be able to track concurrent installs without DRM, but that should only apply if you choose a per-install licence. Per-install also opens you up to malicious users installing/uninstalling to make you pay.
There should be a per-seat/per-user perpetual price if the dev never updates the Unity engine itself. I get charging per-seat/per-user monthly if they devs are pulling in new versions, but that should stop if you cease updating.
