    I wonder how many times it needs to be demonstrated that DRM only hurts legitimate customers? (Looking at you Ubisoft)

    I can almost guarantee pirates already have a work around for this DRM. And if not, just give it a couple of days.

    Then, Capcom, the only players you’ll be left with are the ones you are not making money from.

    I came really close to buying back in to the Resident Evil franchise a few days ago. This guarantees I will not . Fuck your DRM Capcom!

      They don’t need to. They already have a copy of the game without it.

        Capcom is testing it and see if it would work, and if you find the website that describes the tech it’s basically a encryption container + virtual machine(for whatever code module you decide to put into that, don’t know how much customization is that.) probably works in a way to prevent current straight de-compilation tools because it’s inside a sign/hash checked vm. I wouldn’t doubt that it works well for some word processor applications, but for games it’s gonna be very pita, I don’t even know how they are gonna profile their shipping build properly.

        I hope Capcom have some senior engineer get the numbers and then tell the dumdum that said this is good idea to eat his words or maybe just avoid this shady looking product. (use a container tab)

        It looks exactly like those spamming computer protection, optimization, virus removal, shady softwares.

        vs the infamous Denuvo

        I honestly don’t know why any one would have approved this “trial” run.
