Denuvo's protection has rapidly deteriorated in the amount of time it actually is able to protect games' first sales period, which is always argued as the most important in the shelf life for any given game launch. While the first Denuvo-protected games lasted weeks and sometimes even months before ever being cracked, the latest releases have seen rapid-fire hits from pirates. 
 
These outcomes must seriously hamper developers' expectations on Denuvo's ability to keep their games protected. I've been saying for years that DRM is a stupid method of protection.

    I agree with your sentiments about DRM. I buy a good percentage of my PC games from GOG.
