‘Doom: The Dark Ages’ DRM Is Locking Out Linux Users Who Bought the Game
As gaming on Linux becomes more popular, Denuvo’s “activations” limit will become a bigger problem.
You're viewing a single thread.
Denuvo identifies a user opening a game with multiple versions of Proton as multiple machines. It thinks that's piracy and locks the user out of the game
Seems like it should be an easy patch, right? Assuming they have any desire to (I think it "runs" on Steam Deck, so that might be enough incentive)
Denuvo's whole schtick is that your unique system environment gets used as a part of the "unlocking key" of sorts, so it would definitely not be simple. For example windows users face the same issue with denuvo whenever windows updates, although obviously that doesn't happen often enough to be an actual issue.
