I saw this tweet a while ago that was like "Piracy lore is crazy, there's only like 2 people who know how to crack Denuvo. One of them is a psychotic transphobe who speaks like a JRPG villain, and the other only cracks football games"
I'm paraphrasing, but honestly it's so accurate...
Edit: For anyone confused, here is a great writeup on the history of Denuvo cracking, and Empresses lunacy
Only two people willing to crack denuvo games. And publicise their cracks.
Usually talent like that leads to well paying jobs, well paying jobs usually lead to wanting to not go to prison.
That doesn't mean people don't have the skill, it means they're not willing to use it, when someone else is already taking the heat
Is it actually illegal to crack Denuvo?
You have to be crazy to crack denuvo, and Empress fits the bill
Football manager uses a really old version of Denuvo too.
I'm fucking dead 😂
I actually LOLd at this
that was a great read, i recommend it to everyone who sees this post
Welp, that was a wild read. Thank you for sharing!
What a crazy fucking read. Thank you for posting that.
I knew about Empress, of course, because how could I not? But I've not been in the game piracy community for years, and I had no idea she was this... Unstable.
The other cracks football games? You mean like FIFA? Because I haven't seen any cracks of those..
Football manager.
who is this cracker? Asking for a friend...
I think they mean MKDEV.
And only football manager
absolute legend
This was a fantastic read, thank you for sharing!
That was one of the wildest things I read in a while
Great read. Thanks 👍
That was a fantastic read, thx!
Holy smokes. Got sucked into that one. So is she still the only one that can crack Denuvo? You mentioned 2, is the other not very active or something?
Both are based in their own charming ways
You talk like “transphobe” is an insult or something
Pretty insulting when you’re scared of something so normal that doesn’t affect you
It's very obvious ragebait, just don't respond, it's what they want.
