    Yeah, Denuvo DRM is definitely still a thing. In fact, they recently announced that they’re suing the anonymous person who is cracking their DRM. They rather sue a person or group that they don’t even know than actually getting their DRM better. Funny, isn’t it?

    I know piracy does not have Denuvo; that’s why I love piracy as well. I mentioned Denuvo DRM because people who purchase the games legally still have to deal with it. Certainly, piracy is not risk-free, but if you follow the right guides, use your common sense, and have knowledge regarding technology, the risk is very minimal.

      Yes, but how do I have to “deal with it” on Linux? Is it spyware? I know some games basically want kernel level access to prevent cheating, and that’s Steam’s only real stumbling block on Linux.
