[Danjin44]

I'm definitely getting this for my PS5, the game was so fun for me in original Switch release.

Denuvo = no sale

 

[Fabieter]

While people generally dislike DRM, it was a key factor that led many publishers to choose Steam initially. Additionally, DRM is a primary reason why GOG is missing numerous games."

 

[Slimboy Fat]

Expensive for an old game

 

[Oberstein]

Won't buy the game twice.

 

[StereoVsn]

I will probably get this on Steam, but not sure if at launch. I already have a Switch physical so no need for PS5 version.

 

[squidilix]

Denuvo

Good.


I dont think they will be problematic to run looking at specs... under a Xbox One for requirement.

 

[Danjin44]

To be fair they are adding A LOT to the game and unlike P5 Royal, you dont have replay the old story to get to the new story, from the beginning you can just choose the new route.

You know Steam is a form of DRM, right?

 

[cireza]

Day-one on Xbox.

 

[FoxMcChief]

I own it on Switch already, so I'll either wait for a deep sale on PS5, or wait for it on game pass.

Valve have been so good with their indoctrination that most people don't think of Steam as DRM, which is what its original purpose was (and still is). I remember the shitstorm back when Half-Life 2 required you to have a Steam account in order to be able to play it. PC gaming changed forever on that day...

 

[JordiENP]

30gb apart from the high resolution textures means it includes the original route and the new one.

 

[JordiENP]

has a new route with a different story, and the old one too. each one 80 hours of content, so 80 hours of new content.

My point being - it's pointless to put Denuvo as yet another DRM. I get why publishers are doing this but I doubt it is saving them a lot of money (lots of old piracy arguments here).

 

[Hudo]

You and me both.

 

[Solidus_T]

I'll be getting this on PS5. Denuvo sucks.

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

That's actually quite a bit cheaper than nintendo's insane 87eur price.

 

[SolidQ]

Low requirements, so gonna be running nice on any PC

Without denuvo you have pirated version from day one.

With denuvo it can take months to crack games and there are still games that haven't been cracked.

Publishers pay denuvo a lot of money but for them it's worth it.

You can argue that people that pirate games wouldn't pay for them anyway so denuvo doesn't really help.

Precisely, this is the same argument we got rid of 15 years ago. AFAIK not a single publisher ever presented a competent estimate of their lost revenue that went beyond "100k people torrenting from Pirate Bay = 100k copies less sold".

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

PS5 it is. Thanks, Denuvo.

 

[Zathalus]

I'll get it on Steam. To this day I have never had a single issue with Denuvo.

This is most likely true, majority of them will just play other games.

So for unknown number of pirates that would decide to pay for the game because it's not available on their favorite sites publishers decide to fuck up all customers with draconian DRM.

 

[Kurotri]

I deeply want the second route to be amazing, but I'll be careful. Gonna wait to hear what people say and wait for a sale.

 

[YeulEmeralda]

Technically I think you can release the game on Steam without using Valve's DRM system. But almost nobody does.

 

[graywolf323]

Denuvo = no sale

I'll only pick it up if I can get it for 20% off pre-purchase with any bonuses thanks to my Humble Store discount like I did with Like a Dragon 8 & Persona 3: Reload

that's why I double dipped on both of those at launch (I'd get games like that on my PS5 first but if they're playable on Steam Deck I like to encourage publishers to keep putting things on PC as well)

 

[Oberstein]

As NotMyProblemAnymoreCunt says, not at full price. And honestly, I've already finished the game and don't really want to go back.

Steam is not a form of DRM. Steam is a storefront. Steamworks, which is a dev package that can provide libraries for cloud saves, MP, controller support and more, includes DRM component.

 

[Celcius]

Are people really skipping steam because of denuvo?
I've never had it impact my gaming sessions
