Don't care in the least about the performance impact, I just want denuvo removed so games are easier to pirate because I hate game developers.

If anyone didn't already know, the people who created and abandoned SecuROM are the ones behind Denuvo.

According to PCGamer's 12900K review, 32 Denuvo games are broken on Intel's new architecture.
The games listed below are known to be impacted by the Digital Rights Management (DRM) software issue with Windows 11*. The games listed in bold are expected to be patched sometime in mid-November with the upcoming Windows 11 update. We are working with developers to resolve issues with the rest of the games listed. In the meantime, the Scroll Lock workaround can be used.

This list will be updated as patches are released.

  • Anthem*
  • Bravely Default 2*
  • Fishing Sim World*
  • Football Manager 2019*
  • Football Manager Touch 2019*
  • Football Manager 2020*
  • Football Manager Touch 2020*
  • Legend of Mana*
  • Mortal Kombat 11*
  • Tony Hawks Pro Skater 1 and 2*
  • Warhammer I*
  • Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla*
  • Far Cry Primal*
  • Fernbus Simulator*
  • For Honor*
  • Lost in Random*
  • Madden 22*
  • Maneater*
  • Need for Speed – Hot Pursuit Remastered*
  • Sea of Solitude*
  • Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order*
  • Tourist Bus Simulator*
  • Maneater*

Seems like MK11 is getting an updated version of Denuvo rather than removing it but at least Injustice 2's removal patch went live https://steamdb.info/patchnotes/7433017/

Why?

Keeping Denuvo on multiple year old games (whose singleplayer has already been cracked) probably costs more in licensing payments than it actually saves in sales. FFS.

Denuvo servers are down. Games with Denuvo DRM cannot be played. All hail Denuvo.

The more this happens the better. People won't give a fuck about DRM until they're put in situations that simulate what it would be like if their servers were to go down permanently.

"Denuvo-Protected Games Rendered Unplayable After Domain Expires"

With the problems now affecting a large number of users, the complaints inevitably spread to Twitter where one eagled-eyed user explained what he believed had happened. According to Alex Buckland, the DRM provider for all of the affected games had let a key domain expire, rendering the system inoperable.

“@PlanetZooGame @shadowofwargame your DRM provider has let their domain name lapse, and it’s killed your game startup… along with multiple other games I imagine,” he wrote.

Goddamn, I hope the domain got sniped, and that the madlad never lets go.
Or goes full Dr Evil and demands 100 Billion Dollars.
