3DM has reported that it』s been able to crack the latest DRM system, Denuvo, that was used in FIFA 15, Lords of the Fallen and Dragon Age: Inquisition.
Denuvo has been a great DRM system as it was able to protect FIFA 15 for two months and Lords of the Fallen for one whole month.
Denuvo一直是個偉大的加密系統，它能夠保護了FIFA 15 兩個月和墮落之王一個多月不被攻破。

And since Dragon Age: Inquisition – Bioware』s highly anticipated RPG – has been released with this DRM, this particular scene group a Chinese team decided to prove that everything can – eventually – be 『unlocked.』
之後，龍騰世紀：審判也公佈使用了這款加密，然而這個來自中國的破解小組決定證明，一切加密「最後」都將被徹底的破解。
As always, we do not allow links so there is really no reason at all attempting to share one – your comments will be deleted.
如往常一樣，我們禁止任何破解鏈接，所以你如果試圖發佈這些鏈接，那麼你的評論將會被無理由刪除。
Denuvo reminded us of Starforce; another DRM system that took crackers a while to crack.
Denuvo讓我們想起之前的Starforce，另一款讓破解者大費功夫的加密系統。
Some users also claimed that Denuvo was responsible for damaging their SSDs, while others claimed that Lords of the Fallen』s performance issues were due to this particular DRM system.
也有一些玩家聲稱，Denuvo會對他們的固態硬盤造成損傷，而另外一些玩家則聲稱，墮落之王的性能問題就是出自於這個加密系統。
Before closing, we should note that the Chinese team has cracked the DRM system only. This does not mean that there is any working crack at the moment, however it opens up the road for ones.
It will be interesting to see what the team responsible for this DRM will do about this whole thing, and whether it will further enhance or tweak it in order to counter-attack the attempts of the scene groups.
- FIFA 15 releases uncrackable, protected from pirates. It sells about the same as FIFA 14 though. Where is the dramatic spike in sales from all the previously "lost sales" that should now be coming in? Somebody tell me, where are they?
- FIFA 15 發售時未被破解，從而免於盜版。但它的銷量也只是和FIFA14差不多。哪來的扯蛋銷量巔峰，那些所謂因盜版而「流失銷量」在哪，誰告訴我？
- Lords of the Fallen releases uncrackable. With no pirates to decrease the sales, surely this must score much higher than other games which are pirated to heII and back, right? FIFA fans might just all be so loyal they've always been buying the game. But no such luck. Isn't it like 10 pirates to every 1 sold copy on PC? Wasn't that what Crytek said? WHY DOESN'T THIS SELL 10 TIMES AS MUCH AS OTHER GAMES THEN??! I just don't understand. Why aren't we seeing these "lost sales" not being lost **e? Where's the incredible profit after shutting down the filthy pirates?

墮落之王發售時未被破解，沒有盜版影響其銷量，那肯定要比其他被盜版的遊戲更能挽回銷量對吧？可能你會說FIFA的粉絲都比較忠實，會去買遊戲，但你就沒這運氣。如果就像Crytek所說的，PC每賣一個遊戲就有十個是個盜版？那為什麼你賣的遊戲不是其他遊戲的十倍多？？我只是不明白，為什麼我們看到那些「流失的銷量」還是被流失了，那些沒有盜版的驚人銷量又去哪了？
- Dragon Age Inquisition releases uncrackable. Despite no pirates hurting this, it sells about as expected. It doesn't even manage to top the charts anywhere though. Games that have cracks out for them and are being pirated are still outselling this one. How on earth is this possible?
- Denuvo is said to introduce severe performance problems. Now that is regrettable but I guess that is something paying customers just have to live with, to have the satisfaction of knowing that no filthy pirates are playing the game which they paid for.
- Denuvo is said to wear out SSD much faster than regular use programs. Well, if this proves to be true, at least the developers have all that sweet dough they made from not losing so many sales to pirates. They're gonna need it to deal with all the incoming lawsuits.
Okay, enough with the jokes. I'm ultimately glad this thing came around because it finally dispelled this narrative we've been hearing all these years about lost sales. This idiotic lie that if only the option of piracy is removed, suddenly they would see much higher numbers of sold units. Well, thank you Denuvo for finally proving beyond a shadow of a doubt that, this tale is simply not true.
But why isn't it the case? I think the answer is pretty obvious but I'll break down what I believe is the reason by typecasting the different kinds of pirates and pirate/consumer hybrids.
但是，為什麼是這結果？我覺得答案顯而易見，但是我想通過扮演不同的盜版消費群體來分析原因。
1. Poor Pirate
Pirates everything, simply doesn't have the money to be buying games, often times lives in a not so well off country, probably unemployed and barely scraping by. Can't spend money he doesn't have on uncrackable games.
2. Punishing Pirate
Pirates to punish publishers and developers he holds a grudge against. This person only buys games from people he wants to support. They somewhat irrationally will still play and enjoy c**ain games from devs or publishers they hate but they won't give them money for this. EA is a popular target of this practice.
3. Testing Pirate
Pirates everything first, then buys it if he likes it. This person isn't actually a pirate, they just don't accept that there aren't any demos **e so they use piracy to demo games to evaluate if the game is worth it. Won't spend money on an uncrackable game before testing it at a friends or lending it.
People will generally buy what they like when they can. DRM has no influence on that. Even if every game out there came with uncrackable DRM forever. I sincerely doubt that there would be significantly more sales. On the contrary, sales might actually go down. It would probably be great for lending services though because they would suddenly be really popular again.
1+3=Bingo. You got it tight on spot.Someone should publish it in some magazine to crush those pesky pirate haters.
1和3中槍，你說到點子上了，得有人把你的文章發表在雜誌上來打那些虛偽衛道者的臉。
Thanks for the kind words. I wasn't sure if typing all that would be worth the time.
感謝美言，我不太確定這時候發表這些意見是否有意義。
I feel like I'm going to downvote you so I can upvote you twice ;)
我真想給你兩次點贊。
It was worth the time! I've read everything and I 100% agree with you.
It's good to know that there are still intelligent people like you on the internet, I just wish more people would understand what you wrote and do something about it.
你說的很有意義，我完全同意你的評論。網上至少還有你種明白人，我希望更多的人會理解你所說的一切。
Not "more people", just the developers, publishers and such video game industry sections that should hear the voice of people and understand the reasons of piracy, cause they probably think that we are just greedy, we want to save our money for something else, so I'm saving by pirating games which I can afford anyway at any time. Not to mention how greedy is EA.
the true is that the companys cant fight pirates... but this companys are the worst...
they lie customers, BUT they cant lie about numbers.... the numbers you posted here. about sells and eveything. and we are talking about aaa tittles.
100% with you.
On internet it usually isn't :p But you're still 100% right pretty much.
互聯網不總是對的 但你100%正確不能更多。
Never fully read a comment but yours. Keep it up!
我通常不會看完評論，你的例外。繼續！
but you understand that FIFA is a sports game?
it is logical that it is sold as bread, then bought super console, and I think it's difficult to crack.
Dragon age does not sell s**t. I'm staying in the shelves (at least here in Italy).
I know friends who are eager to crack but my other friends disappointed to have spent on that game. Why?
Sr, your post deserves a prize. I've always thought that the only thing that a company achieves using DRM is to annoy their real customers. The number of people that would be willing to pay for a game for the sole reason it cannot be pirated is almost non existent. the pirate that don't want or can't pay for a game will play something else if such game cannot be pirated. Witcher 3 will show the world that DRM free games can sell far better than games with intrusive DRM
Just look at sony.
Ps3 was pirate free for many years, they fought it and fought it and tried to keep it that way but ironicly that didnt do anything.
Yoshida has said only 4/10 sony exlusives sell.
I am sure thats not because of piracy but simply people not buying those games, if the pc piracy argument was true and x360 being hackable, ps3 would have super high sales......but they didnt.
I'm the 1st type sadly...
After I pay all my bills I'm left with what would be about $200 to live with for the rest of the month.
I can't just give almost half of it for 1 game...
If I don't pirate the game, i can't play it. Simple as that. So is it really so bad that I do it? If I didn't, the companies still wouldn't get any money, so they are not actually losing anything. At least when I pirate, I can tell my friends who can afford to buy the game that it is good, and that they should get it.
Was living in the same situation for a long time. Always bought games on sales. It usually cost you 5-10 bucks for 3-4 good games in bundle. Not so much I think
I live in Africa, here, we can't buy anything online (At least in my contry)
I'd like to buy legit copies but publisher don't bother to ship their games here!
So what ? because I had the bad luck to be born in a third world country I can't enjoy games ?
Hell, they don't even list my country in their website, so as long as I have no choice i'll pirate video games
Videogames are not an entitlement. And let's be honest if the game was for sale there you'd pirate it anyway.
電子遊戲並非是 一種權利，老實說吧，一個遊戲上市了，你是不是到處找他的盜版？
Funny how people will rationalize theft with any "poor me" excuse.
搞笑，人們老是把「我很窮」當作理所當然的借口。
Well if he has no intention at all of purchasing it then no sale was ever lost? I don't think you just understand you proved his point :|
好吧，他沒有意識到如果你根本就不打算買這遊戲，那損失就無從說起。我認為你不理解他的觀點。
If the piracy is theft then tell me how can I return that all stolen games to its owners.
如果用盜版就是賊，那你告訴我，我怎麼把偷來的遊戲還給你。
My steam library is worth about $2000, but I can honestly say I've only spent about $300-400.
我STEAM收藏的遊戲大概值得2000刀，不過老實說，我大概就才花了300-400刀。。
Well, you weren't bullshitting if this is your account. $375 for $1466. Well played. (paid*?)
好吧，如果你不是在吹牛，花了375刀就買到了1466刀的遊戲。干（付）得好。
lol 515 hours. I have 1900+ hours from TF2 alone :3
哈哈 515個小時，我在TF2上已經花了1900+個小時了 :3
TF2 = Dead game xD
TF2= 擼到死 XD
It's funny to see people from NA/Europe protesting about game prices. Here in Brazil, the minimum wage is R$600, in our currency. A PS4 is something like R$4000, a XOne is like R$2000 and a good PC is around R$5000. Besides that, a single game costs R$200 when it releases (on steam, where it is the cheapest). So, if you consider the basic costs of living, includig food and bills, and considering you HAVE a home, so you don't pay rental, with a minimum wage you can't even buy a game. Just to know, the value of the minimum wage is just symbolic, cause you lose around R$50-80 in taxes before you receive your wage.
EU has countries with s**t life. I know cause I'm in one. Here one game costs 1/3 of the minimum wage too and we already pay 1/3 of it for electricity (one of the most expensive in whole EU even though we have one of the shi**iest life standards cause f' logic).
I make about $550/month from which i pay my bills with about $400 and then need from $50-100 for food and etc. Still i have steam account with 975 games that are worth about 9500
Why can't he give his reason, it's not up to you to tell others what to say circumstances are never that simple sir.
為什麼就不能找理由，不用你告訴別人該怎麼說，老兄，實際情況遠比這複雜。
That was not an order, just a friendly advice of an, i suppose, older (40 years old here) person.
我不是在要求，我只想提一個友好的建議。一個大叔（40歲了）
Ha with old age comes an authoritative tone, maybe I took it the wrong way.
哈，一個大叔的權威口氣，噢，也許我理解錯了。
Bullshit. Playing a videogame is not an entitlement. Nor is it essential to survival. You act like pirating because you're Loser with a crap job is no different than people that have to steal food to survive. You don't HAVE to play videogames to survive. That's the difference.
I'm really sorry for you if you just want to "survive".
如果你只是為了「生存」，我真替你感到難過。
First and foremost . There are things called hobbies in this world . Is playing a guitar essential for your survival ? Offcourse not . People like to play games . And i think that you are not aware that there are some countries in world that didn't get good billing systems for buying a video game . There are also countries where some games (Dragon age Inquisition, in this case) are prohibited (India , in this case). So there is no legal way to buy a game there . The only way to play DAI in India is to get it by means of piracy .
If you were in a private beach, and you found a beautiful seashell that you really liked, would you take it? Even though it wasn't your beach? Would the owner go bankrupt if you took it? Is anyone gonna even notice? Only you would know, and no one lost anything.
I posted my reasons for pirating so that people would know that pirating, as many things in life, is not just black and white.
Does it really matter if I pirate a game or not? There are no losers here. The company didn't lose anything because of me, and I got to play a game I couldn't afford.
但你100%正確不能更多。
