Although for some of us this is a well-known problem, it has appeared again with the release of DOOM: The Dark Ages so it's worth a quick PSA to remind people about Denuvo activation limits with Proton on Linux, SteamOS / Steam Deck.

Denuvo strikes again!

    In that case, request a refund and just forget about the game. It’s that little bit worse for the publisher who chose Denuvo.

      Doubt it.

      Now that it’s much harder to crack they’ll sell more. So many thiefs out there with plenty of money to burn who choose not to because they can get away with it.

        Are the thieves with plenty of money to burn in the room with you, right now? Can you point them out? Where did they hurt you? Was it actually EA or Ubisoft but you’re scared to let us know? Was it Paradox’s DLC scheme, or Total War? Are they the ones who really hurt you? It’s ok. You’re in a safe space. The AI generated loot skins can’t hurt you, here.
