He deflected lot of repeated questions with community\'s claim of causing games to run slower and said gamers wants to play games for free instead of paying for them. + +Ullmann seems to forget there are companies such as GOG (Good Old Games) that publish and sell DRM-free games without any performance (related game loading and data sizes) and piracy issues. If games rolled out with Denuvo or any other DRMs require constant internet connection to play, then it effectively becomes unplayable once developers pull the plug and remove the servers. + +### Source(s) + +- [TPU][def] +- [RPS][def2] + +[def]: https://www.techpowerup.com/328030/denuvo-blames-gamer-toxicity-for-drm-protection-hate-dismisses-performance-concerns?cp=3#comments +[def2]: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/denuvo-respond-to-their-rep-for-tanking-games-im-a-gamer-myself-and-therefore-i-know-what-im-talking-about diff --git a/source/_posts/about.md b/source/_posts/about.md index 4df9293..bb8d57f 100644 --- a/source/_posts/about.md +++ b/source/_posts/about.md @@ -9,7 +9,7 @@ tags: --- ## About Me -Hi readers, I\'m Vasudev Menon and always wanted to create a blog which took a long time until I came across Hexo. +Hi readers, I\'m Vasudev Menon and wanted to create a blog which took a long time until I came across Hexo.
