Yesterday, Ubisoft revealed the official specs and requirements to play Far Cry 5 on PC. It’s a detailed list, including specs for 4K machines should you have them, so definitely take a look at that. However, upon further inspection of the game and its End User Licensing Agreement, players have noted that the title will have Denuvo, and Anti-Piracy DRM that is not something players enjoy. Not because the DRM prevents them from pirating, but rather, for those who don’t pirate, it can make playing, and even installing, the game pretty difficult at times.
This is a problem for most because DRM is something that tends to stick around, and Far Cry 5‘s version is no different, as the licensing agreement says that Denuvo files “may remain even after the product is uninstalled from your computer.”
There’s no doubt in our minds that this will affect the PC sales of the game, but to what extent? That remains to be seen.
There could be more features that this DRM program brings to the game, but if it does, it’s not known at present. The real problem here is the idea of trust between developer and gamer. For while it’s true that some gamers take games and try to make them available to pirate, a lot of others don’t, and the invasive programs like Denuvo can be burden to those who don’t even think about pirating.
Hopefully, the gameplay and story of Far Cry 5 will defer thoughts of the DRM program. After all, Ubisoft has worked hard to make the game the best in the series in terms of design, scale, and scope. They painstakingly made the game to resemble Montana, they have plenty of activities and sidequests to make you feel like you’re choosing your own path, and the story itself is set to be very deep and fun.
You can get the game on March 27th.
drm is @#%@# and useless tell me a game that has drm and not being cracked by pirates…even more pirated game takes of the drm so game maker have to understand this for once its just a pain in the ass and useless ho yeah right its gonna give the pirates 1 month or 2 of hard work to crack it but legit player will have to stick with it forever pfff guess what il be the first to dl a pirated version just to not have a drm and i usualy buy my game see its doing the opposite of what its suposed to do and im not the only one here all my friend hate the stupid drm and always on connection $$$ sorry for my english its not my language thanks.
Many modern DRM isn’t actually removed. Rather they bypass the checks to make the DRM non-functional. This may be as simple as a generic API shim library that always returns values the game expects.
Diablo 3 remains uncracked to this day
Diablo 3 is online only though and all content is server-side. You
‘d have to write an emulator for it.
This is a very beautiful game
