    This is Capcom, so don’t hold your breath thinking they’ll never add the DRM back to the game. There’s precedent.

      Yes. I was interested until I realized it’s Capcom.

      Capcom needs to work much harder to rehab their reputation with me. I recall them adding DRM to games where, to me, it made no sense. Including weird, seemingly random timing for the change.

      I get how there’s an argument to be had about fair online play, and stopping early pirates. But sometimes Capcom seems to me yo just be rolling dice, or trying yo meet an internal DRM use quota.

        There’s no excuse for adding DRM to old games where it didn’t exist or had already been removed. https://www.polygon.com/24034967/capcom-drm-resident-evil-revelations-steam-mods/

        Capcom are just flat out liars and control freaks who say stupid things like that PC mods are equivalent to cheats.

    Wooo! I can finally give it a go, even though I have heard it is shite compared to the first one.

    I very rarely buy games and almost never at full price but on the strength of the first game I would have probably bought this upon release if they hadn’t put denuvo into it. Now they will never get any money from me!

      Played ~5 hours and I’m really enjoying it. They have added fast travel (not sure if it was with this or some previous update) which was one thing that kept me from even thinking about getting it before, along with denuvo. It runs great too, buttery smooth on max everything for me. It’s not an astounding game, but definitely a fun time (so far).

        DD2 has always had fast travel. It’s a pretty central mechanic in the lore

    I could sail the seas and try it but they dared to use Denuvo so it’s on my permanent fuck off list.
