      … I hate to out myself here but I have played some of those games cracked.

      I mean there was even a whole thing on Far cry 6 running better cracked https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ohLnGG92usI

      And RE Village https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jSMXhdPeCfk And Hogwarts: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5y_bab5wtHY

      I looked up Nier: Replicant and yeah, also cracked (I will not share as I think that breaks rules)

      EDIT: Also in the link you provided:

      "Did Hogwarts Legacy remove Denuvo?

      Notorious game cracker has removed Denuvo from Hogwarts Legacy after just two weeks."

        Hey, I don’t judge. I might only pirate media I’ve already bought (like when I couldn’t find my copy of a movie) but firmly agree with Gabe Newell that piracy is a service issue first and foremost. Additionally if you can’t own the game you buy I can’t view it as stealing. If there is a crack for Civ 7 or Dragons Dogma 2, I’ll probably buy a copy then get the cracked version for performance.

      I for sure play HL cracked days after release. I haven’t touched the others though.
