A counter-argument to Braid developer Jonathan Blow’s opinion that video-game narratives are impeded by their inherent need to challenge the player.
Capcom has removed the recently added Enigma DRM from the PC version of its survival horror game, Resident Evil 4 remake.
The latest update for Capcom's Resident Evil 4 remake has replaced Denuvo with Enigma DRM, lowering in-game performance.
Once again hurting the people who purchase and support the game. Meanwhile pirates get the best version. Pathetic.
There is already someone or a group called voices38, that has been cracking Denuvo games lately. Not the newest games, but getting there.
I wonder if the pirated copies run better like this one titled here: "Resident Evil 4: Remake - Gold Edition (No Denuvo) (v1.5.0.0 + All DLCs + Bonus Content + MULTi14) (From 50 GB)"
i don't think so? as far as i know even pirated version have denuvo or whatever runing in the background, they just trick it to say that yes this is a legit copy or just skip that process, but im not 100% sure. regardless this is an endless battle where legit consumer "suffer" sometimes. it's not that big of a deal MOST of the times and i understand publishers not wanting people to get access to their games for FREE so, i cant blame them honestly. i do find it odd that they wouldn't just remove DRM completely considering most people already played it? not like they are getting more sales anymore, just lower the price remove DRM but i guess thats why they still have it because they dont want to lower the price. oh well
A perfectly acceptable excuse to pirate the game.
Why would you accept to pay for the game in order for it to install software you don’t want with the intention to make your playing experience worse. Paying for that would be the very definition of stupid.
I’m not against DRM but if it negatively effects a product you’re paying for. Then it’s on them not you.
Cut content from the Capom's Resident Evil 4 remake has been uncovered, revealing that it once had a "Chapter 0" featuring Ashley.
You know I would have liked this if it was added on for free. A nice substitute for Assignment Ada.
I *loved* Braid, and I know Blow can rub people the wrong way, but I'm glad that he's kind of outspoken about his views. Keeps things interesting.
Anyway, on topic, I think Blow is totally wrong in this case. Reminds me of something like Red Dead Redemption, though that wasn't necessarily about difficulty. The middle part of that game was a chore, but it added to the emotional weight of the ending because you had suffered through a lot of boring missions earlier on.
nest indie game ever, simply amazing
