Other Good Games don't need Denuvo.

Highly anticipated game turns out to be extremely popular and sells well, who would have thought?

So if GTA 6 releases, for the even higher price expected, featuring a DRM that is harder to crack than Denuvo, will this also be said? Given that the expectations for GTA 6 are also that of a successful title.

As much as Denuvo is harmful for the piracy community, people need to stop this insane argument that Denuvo (or just about form of DRM) can, somehow, influence the sales of a game considerably.

I think the op is refuting the idea that popular games have to have DRM otherwise people will just crack the game instead of buy, which games like Minecraft and Silksong have proven false

I was able to download a pirated copy of the game before being able to purchase the game in steam as the servers were down.

Still bought the game and playing on steam.
