Normies are aware of almost everything too. Been exposed to many recently. They know their food, entertainment, government, culture etc are all shit but they are sloppers by nature.
They know the turd is a turd...just have no capacity for self denial.
Even if they know, they wont pass on buying games like this because not playing the latest sloppa and being out of the loop is a bigger problem for them than putting up with garbage practices raping them in the ass.
>how does anyone still swallow the ass creed's formula?
It's pretty decent formula that changed multiple times over the last 10 years. Ubisoft games are mediocre but not bad.
You know what's actually bad? People who want to seem superior and talk about games they haven't even played. Like this

homosexual.
Like, seriously, there were always loads of mediocre games coming out and everyone played them and nostalgic for them now. When the frick did everyone become douchey pseudo-intellectual homosexuals?
>Ubisoft games are mediocre but not bad.
Being mediocre is worse than being bad you stupid shill. Bad would mean you at least tried and failed. Ubi games are market tested shitty products created with the sole purpose to earn money.
>how does anyone still swallow the ass creed's formula?
plenty of people don't. the main gripe about the first game when it first came out was the repetitiveness formula
Tell me another series that takes place in historical locations, let's me parkour and do stealth kills with smoke bombs and social distraction and shit
I feel like the animus shit drags down the whole historical atmosphere. Can't they just settled with a normal interface without the scifi buzz and bings?
I think the only people who hate AC(other than rpg shit like origins, odyssey etc) are those who don't know how to play it stealthily. You probably end up entering into direct conflict in all missions.
>how does anyone still swallow the ass creed's formula?
I only played (i think) the second one. Thought it looked cool and somewhat enjoyed upgrading this italian mini town you were the owner of but felt the game was a bit samey. Are any of the later games any good? I got odyssey on sale because i'm a sucker for ancient greek settings and it looks interesting but i can't be arsed to slog through dozens of hours of bloated gameplay.
The map in Odyssey is good. The story, dialogue and voice acting are fricking atrocious. Also it’s a series designed around climbing set in an era with basically no tall buildings so it’s kinda weird in that sense.
I’m assuming their main audience has brain damage. I don’t know how you can enjoy a game without actual gameplay. Something which Asscreed has literally never implemented.
It will probably work with a steam emulator such a Mr. Goldberg's.
But given Ubisoft's track record the day 0 release is probably full of bugs and borderline unplayable.
They're all doing this now. Probably 'guidance' from irdeto themselves because they know public opinion against Denuvo has soured significantly and newer versions come with massive perf overhead that contributes to performance issues
How is this not even surprising behavior from Ubisoft? They're such a scummy company, it's no wonder why they're failing and nobody wants to buy them out.
>release game without denuvo >then quickly add denuvo even though there's already a copy of the game that can easily be cracked thus rendering adding denuvo pointless
what was the plan here?
these fricking Black folk, that should be illegal. Shouldn't there be some kind of country-wide consumer-side "terms of service" to make this type of bullshit illegal? Might as well be a bait and switch
>release game without denuvo >then quickly add denuvo even though there's already a copy of the game that can easily be cracked thus rendering adding denuvo pointless

Do normies and shit even listen to ign and stuff anymore? It seems like social media and youtube celebs hold more weight with zoomer normies than some site getting paid.
Normies in the millions buy shit like Ass Creek and Cybershit on console just because AAA. Nobody, or no media outlet, tells them; they're npcs on scripts. then sell it for $50 on Facebook Marketplace to their other moron normie friends
It's the modern slop economy
>company spends millions of dollars developing a game >takes steps to protect its property from being illegally stolen >NOOOOO MUCH *HECK-IN* DRM!!!
Colossal yikes. Texas-sized.
information has no substance, however the representation of information has substance because it is a the implementation of processes sequentially arranged by human labor through languages in order to craft computer programs.
A program it is a physical asset. But a program is useless without the existence of a medium, in this case, a computer, which is the private property of the final user and consumer.
This last point is the reason why large companies have the desire to migrate to a cloud business model for the electronic entertainment industry (Stadia, Games as a Service, Always Live Services) where the organization has the total control and ownership rights over both the software and the medium where the software can run and the customer pays a subscription to obtain the right to consume the resources.
The people must remember these abusive strategies and always protect both their freedom and defend their material goods and private property.
User credentials are the physical representation of information. Just like every day computer data.

One data set allows access to extremely sensitive information about an individual. The other is a proprietary, closed source product that does not put any sensitive information at risk.
>convincing other people that i'm you isn't stealing your identity
go away
Information has three possible states during its existence: rest, transmission and processing. Identity is not information, because it cannot be transmitted. I cannot be you. You cannot be me. You can only exfiltrate something I have or know, but not who I am.

The sensitive information would be AC, the product itself. However, sensitive information is defined as data that puts an individual, organization or entity at risk. A pirated copy poses no threat to the end consumer.

here's a pretty decent write up of how to do it (https://www.makeuseof.com/how-to-downgrade-steam-games/), if someone wants to, feel free to use that news site archive site, i've never used it so idk the name.
It doesn't really matter what game it is. Adding denuvo AFTER review copies go out is scummy as hell.
The fact they did this with Assassin's Creed shows they have no actual talent on the dev team and no faith in this release. They KNOW its fricked and wanted to secure sales through disingenuous means, then let it crash and burn..
twenty bucks says it has nothing to do with problems of including denuvo and everything to do with the bean counters needing to write a check for the denuvo license as soon as it's implemented in an external copy of the game, even if it's for journos only
those morons probably drink whatever denuvo's marketing kool-aid is about how it "only marginally impacts performance" anyway and aren't even sure what a video game is, they only give a shit about dollars
>those morons probably drink whatever denuvo's marketing kool-aid is about
i've seen this sentiment multiple times, but intuitively i'd expect the power-dynamic to be the opposite of this.
If you buy any ubisoft game post-Watch_Dogs 1 under any circumstances you deserve to get fricked in the ass and slapped around like this. Denuvo has been in literally every one of their games for the past few years and to expect them not to add it now is moronic. Luckily ubisoft is the master of releasing "The games of all time" so you're not missing much.

I think the only people who hate AC(other than rpg shit like origins, odyssey etc) are those who don't know how to play it stealthily. You probably end up entering into direct conflict in all missions.
why would i want to sneak around like a gay for 100 hours when i can slice and dice for 70?
>are those who don't know how to play it stealthily.
homie, it's Ass Creed, those turds are some of the easiest stealth games on the fricking planet.
It was ok until the Greece game where they turned all the Greeks into poos
>how does anyone still swallow the ass creed's formula?

Just approach Odyssey as an action-adventure, and not an assassin's game, and you can have a good time with it.
The setting is the best part still.
The map in Odyssey is good. The story, dialogue and voice acting are fricking atrocious. Also it’s a series designed around climbing set in an era with basically no tall buildings so it’s kinda weird in that sense.
You played the only good one that the entire franchise built its identity around. Everything after has been a half baked derivative of AC2.
I’m assuming their main audience has brain damage. I don’t know how you can enjoy a game without actual gameplay. Something which Asscreed has literally never implemented.
So day 0 version can be crackable?
It will probably work with a steam emulator such a Mr. Goldberg's.
But given Ubisoft's track record the day 0 release is probably full of bugs and borderline unplayable.
Luke Stephen says it's generally bug free, it's been 3 years since Valhalla and Mirage is a smaller title both in size and scope so I believe it.
gaymers are the most moronic consumer base in the world on par with apple fans
I will only play ASSASSINS CREED if they number it 5. simple as'
So they intentionally uploaded a version without Denuvo?
They know Denuvo hurts sales, so they intentionally got a billion people to buy it and then patched Denuvo in to frick them over.
They deserve it for buying ubislop day one.
It was always there they just lied
But Denuvo is good. Piratetards stay seething
but pirates can easily pirate it for free since they released it without denuvo
this only hurts people who buy it
fricking moron lol
They're all doing this now. Probably 'guidance' from irdeto themselves because they know public opinion against Denuvo has soured significantly and newer versions come with massive perf overhead that contributes to performance issues
It would be very funny if this ends the preorder culture because these dumb fricking companies can't help themselves.
I hope Steam and any other store selling games that do this bans the practice because it's fraud.
You really don't have to wait on steam, no word of a lie call up your government official's office and complain saying that's fraud.
How is this not even surprising behavior from Ubisoft? They're such a scummy company, it's no wonder why they're failing and nobody wants to buy them out.
Wait, won't this just result in the game being cracked super quickly since the crackers now have a version without Denuvo to compare to?
>release game without denuvo
>then quickly add denuvo even though there's already a copy of the game that can easily be cracked thus rendering adding denuvo pointless
what was the plan here?
Nobody besides the journalists have access to the game yet.
these fricking Black folk, that should be illegal. Shouldn't there be some kind of country-wide consumer-side "terms of service" to make this type of bullshit illegal? Might as well be a bait and switch
It was released in Oceania
>Implying journos even know what denuvo is
Do normies and shit even listen to ign and stuff anymore? It seems like social media and youtube celebs hold more weight with zoomer normies than some site getting paid.
pretty sure masses of normies just buy it because it's asscreed and they zero standards

So they're smarter than steamcucks.
pretty sure Ganker listens to ign. the hive mind is pretty tsundere about it.
Sometimes you can't download a 1.0 version of the game
Even if you could it would be encrypted until release, on steam at least
It makes it all the more obvious that the real value of "DRM SOFTWARE" is to plant spyware on your customer's computer. Not stop piracy.
It was never about stopping piracy. It's about legally monitoring customers.

What is identity theft
You don't "steal identity" you impersonate a user stealing his access credentials.

So yeah, stealing something non-physical.
User credentials are the physical representation of information. Just like every day computer data.

this, it's not even on steam yet. when they upload it to steam it won't be 1.0.
>game runs noticeably slower a day later. On purpose
This is slimy as frick. Did they hired any former EA executives recently??
why don't they just rename denuvo? the goyim don't care lol look at how many times tiktok was renamed before it actually stuck.
I played the 1.0.2 and 1.0.4 versions last night and it already had Denuvo you fricking morons
Who the frick cares about AC in 2023. You are beyond moronic if you still play this series

Why is this important? Who cares? Never mind pirating, you'd have to pay ME to play a modern Ass Creed game in any format, shape or form.

Unity is when AC peaked
your loss
actually it was brotherhood, everything after that was pure slop
Meh. Unity was whatever.
I played 2 hours of the first AC game, it was intolerable garbage for morons.
Don't know how anyone got into it, I guess you just had to be 12 when it came out or something.
>I played 2 hours of the first AC game
when did you play it? me and my friends played it on release, it was interesting but flawed
I can't remember if it was release or like a year or two later. I just remember it being absolute ass.
Personally i was 13 when the first AC game came out. Didnt play it much however.
I played up to unity and Unity was by far the lowest point in the series. Genuinely killed off the old fanbase and replaced it with sloppers like you
AC2>AC Brotherhood>AC 1 >
around in a septic tank> Revelations > black Flag >>>>> moving to india>>>>AC3=AC unity
Unity was so moronic you and the assasins side with the monarchy instead of the revolutionaries when france was the hq of the templars

People still buy Ubisoft games? Why?
Assassin's Creed truly started and ended with Ezio Auditore da Firenze. everything else before and after Ezio was plain garbage.
i read your comment and all i could hear in my head was tony yelling
>in this house ezio firenze is a hero! end of story!
Piracy is counterfeiting, not theft.
Decided to watch a few streamers play it, why does the UI look so similar Genshin?
