Bro, I've got like 25 hours in the Final Fantasy Tactics Remaster, on my Steam Deck and laptop.

Yesterday, an update caused the game to launch with a black screen. So I tried a few different Proton versions, before I start getting a new error.

I take a look at the discussion board for the game on Steam... Fucking Denuvo considers each version of Proton to be a separate "activation" and it will only allow five BEFORE LOCKING YOU OUT OF THE GAME FOR 24 HOURS.

I have never really given a shit about Denuvo before, but this is so fucking infuriating. I paid for this game. I've already played 25 hours of this game. Now I can't fucking play it?

Unbelievable. Denuvo is fucking trash, and I guess now I'm one of those people who avoids it.

    I guess you were testing with multiple versions of Proton to see which one works the best? Otherwise, doesn't make sense to have changed 5 versions in 25 hours.

    If you were testing as such, the game publishers should be paying you for doing their job of quality testing.

    Maybe they did and didn't like that I used the technically incorrect term "quality testing", instead of "performance testing", which would be appropriate for this case.

    Or maybe they just didn't like me saying that the one benefitting from said testing should be paying equivalent value to the one putting in the work.

    Its not fuvking cool. I wish i could just ask for shit and hand over points or whatever and get stuff by making stuff¹, but thats not the fucking shit-abyss dystopia we live in.

    ¹making stuff is the best! If you try to do it for points you will be fucked, and also it all gets stolen.

    You shouldn't have given those parasites money. That was bad.

    Did I misunderstand what happened?

    What? I was asking an honest question... If me purchasing a video game means I'm giving money to parasites (and it means I'm a, "little corpo slave bitch" that "got what you deserved"), then I would love to hear about where you source your PC parts.

    There is no ethical consumption in capitalism. You are not better than me because you pirate PC games. Chud.
