Even if the protection is bypassed the thing about hard DRM is that it tend to happen only once. This means it locks pirates out of future patches and DLCs. Hardly the superior product. Which is exactly why a semi-effective DRM gives us our best chance to save some form of off-line functionality.
-
Yes, and paying customers are the ones who end up suffering, while pirates just have to wait a bit longer to get the objectively superior version of the game. Or they may never get to play it at all. Game cracking isn't inevitable.

But that's the whole point of Denuvo. It's no longer that easy to circumvent.
-
You want to change your GPU? That's one activation lost. Wanna change something else? There's another activation. Denuvo activations aren't lost.

Yes but have you wondered what caused the 'shy Trump voter' effect? If Trump supporters refuse to answer polls or pretend to be undecided then there must be reason for it and frankly I think most of it lies with the media. Apparently women and minorities were big part of the statistical error and I'd say they were ashamed to admit they were voting for a man labeled a misogynist and a racist.

Hillary gained 1% of women voters from what I saw vs Obama. I don't know how we can say that is notable in terms of a gap. However, the amount of time she spent on her being a woman sure didn't pan out. But men voted for Trump 5% more than for Romney hence a record gender gap. What's worse is that a logical answer to this might be making women do the same for Democrats.
-
I've been muling over some election results and I'm getting a bit concerned over the divide in the US. Apparently this election saw the greatest gender gap, the greatest divide over college education and historic first of no ticket splitting for the senate. Add to that a record low trust in media and that both sides seem to be doubling down on their populist agendas. This could make for an ugly future.
-
This would mean that white men would even elect Trump in California. I doubt you can explain that with just economy. Looks like a major cultural backlash.
-
Interestingly enough the potential Trump victory will be due to white males without collage degree and record participation among rural voters. It's Brexit all over again. The losing side of diversity and globaliation mobilizes trying to turn back the clock.
-
Funny you are one of the few people on these who will think and believe this is good news, its to be expected It's funny that you say "few people" when Trump just won. So the MAJORITY think like me. Majority of electoral collage. Popular vote will likely go to Clinton.
-
It's insane that this got so close. I read a bit about political split in the US but never imagined that you could rally half of the country behind Trump.

Anything will do as long as they don't pull another kotor .

Maybe slowly moving away from post-apocalypse? In Fallout 2 things were moving away from the bombs into a new wild west of sorts.
-
I seriously doubt taking Fallout in a different direction is an option. Big settings only change when sales fall into reboot territory.

Just in case you thought we live in a sane world: First Civilization 6 e-sports team is announced.

It seems that iOs graphics have spread to the cinematic division. And those pompous inspirational speeches are really starting to grate on my nerves.

Consider this then: Syrian war has empowered Russia. That Afghanistan-like quagmire never materialized and their intervention is seen as a big success. Atrocities might shock diplomats but average voter will find it convenient to disbelieve them. US giving up on Syria could at least limit Putin's gains.
-
It takes two to tango. US could have given up on Syria when it became obvious that there was no public support for intervention. Instead it embarrassed itself with 'red lines' and now looks willing to fight Assad to the last rebel it can arm. Syria has suffered enough. It's much better for US to admit defeat today than to spin out the inevitable at a ever rising cost of lives.
-
Bruce there is nothing new regarding Syria in the links you provide. The sad state of that country is in large part due to the failure of US policy. I doubt anybody expected much restrain of Russia or Assad.

Apparently Shadow Warrior 2 is out today:

Just before final boss fight in undying.

That's not just PC port problems. After GTA this will be a hard sell.

Well, as a series that started on the PC this is a bit of a slap in face. I mean, how hard is it to unlock framerates? The guy who fixed Dark Souls PC release did it in one night. That 'fix' broke quite a few other things. Maximum jump distance being by far the worse. And I really don't get the 60fps obsession while vomit inducing field of view goes unnoticed.

In DMC4 it sure is. A game that expects you to constantly hold down 3 separate buttons is best played without wasting fingers on holding controller in the air. And don't even get me started on 'hold down' lag that many commands experience thanks to limited buttons on controllers.

Yep. Could have been worse.
