The new patch of Doom Eternal just dropped and they added Denuvo anti cheat software to the game that forces the DRM to launch before the game will start. Because you know, it’s not as though Valve has anti-cheat software to stop people from cheating or anything. So far I haven’t noticed any stuttering but I fucking hate Denuvo and have yet to see it not completely fuck over the frame rates of any game that runs it. It’s pretty sad to see these companies not value the play experience of paying customers when they launch these stupid ass DRMs that punish people who give them money.

The funny thing is it released with a DRM-free version and there’s been pirated versions floating around since day 1. The game’s been out for over a month and they add in Denuvo even though everyone who wanted to steal it already did.

It doesn’t make any sense. I also hear this is the most up to date version of Denuvo(which sounds fucked up when I read up on it.) I didn’t want it on my system and I uninstalled the game before it could patch in Denuvo.

Here the video on it, and it explains the issues better than I can with nice shiny graphs.

It’s a Anticheat and not the DRM version of Denuvo, the Anticheat driver, that runs on the kernel level 0 turns on with game play and turns off when the game is done. Still its a driver that you didn’t install running on the kernel level where the driver has access to EVERYTHING

I feel for you guys. That shit really fucking sucks and is hella scummy of beth/id to do. Won’t lie this is one thing I’m glad I never have to deal with on console.

It really makes me sad because I was singing ID’s praises from the rooftops when Eternal dropped and delivered us a fantastic game. So sad to see all that good will wasted by one dumbass decision you know some suit made.

I almost bought this on sale a while back. It looks great.

I wish it had a campaign of some sort though, especially with how thicc the atmosphere is and the 3D audio sound design. The graphics look great too.

Is there any interest in Crucible? It looks like a fun third person shooter. It reminds me of Paragon which is my primary reason to be interested in it.

Stupid that it’s even come to this but I’m glad the community manager and devs seem to be listening.

It is refreshing to have a company actually listen to negative feedback and care about their customer base. Color me surprised. It does show that they actually care about their image and product.

If anyone’s wondering what the new empowered demons look like, I finally had one pop in during my UN run tonight. He seemed to have more HP than a normal enemy and was pretty hard to kill.

Holy shit nice, cheers for the link.

If anyone is looking for some GIT GUD tips for Doom Eternal:

EDIT: The following speedrunners have really helped me progress through ultra nightmare, be warned though, they make some really difficult executions look way too easy.
