    I love to see it, but publishers will still consider this a win for DRM. The vast majority of sales for most games happen in the first few weeks after release, so 13 days without a crack might be considered worth the cost of Denuvo in exec’s minds. They’ll only panic if it’s available on day one, like with that hypervisor bypass that made headlines recently.
