Middle-earth: Shadow Of War PC DRM Was Cracked Within 24 Hours
Middle-earth: Shadow of War has just been released (read our perf review here) and it uses the Denuvo anti-tamper tech. And as you may have guessed, the game has been cracked in just a day.
Shadow of War follows Total War: WARHAMMER 2 and FIFA 18; two games that were also cracked one day after their release. To be honest, we are really wondering whether it’s worth using the Denuvo anti-tamper tech. Denuvo was meant to protect the games for at least a respectable number of days after their official launch. However, all the three latest games using the Denuvo anti-tamper tech have been cracked in record time.
Denuvo's anti-tampering system, and others, are used to help address piracy reports gamespot. By comparison, Eurogamer reported that Mass Effect: Andromeda's DRM system was cracked in 10 days, while Resident Evil 7's was brought down in a little under a week. Denuvo is also used for games like Batman: Arkham Knight, Mad Max, Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, and Rise of the Tomb Raider.
The Chinese cracking group 3DM said in 2016 that it believed anti-piracy measures on PC games would become so advanced that there might be an end to pirated games by 2018.

Well on a positive i can only thank these company's who release £50 single player games with season pass, dlc, micro trans, mini DLC and now loot boxes, they basically make the decision for me NOT to touch their games....so i and my wallet thank them for that. lol

Good. Anti-consumer DRM has no place in our world.

The lack of anti-consumer protection or it being vulnerable to cracking keeps publishers infinite greed in check and pushes them to actually spend money on a proper content like CD Projekt has been doing all these years.

"Is it theft, or is it up-up-down-down-left-right-left-right-B-A?"
I can't care less about their abuse aka monetization of what used to be cheat codes. Let them cry about theft and piracy, I'm all for this bs being btfo.
