I can’t wait for the day when Denuvo ends up scaring away more legitimate customers than it actually helps to sell the game. It seems like we are slowly getting there :')

It's way past that point long ago.

But shareholders don't understand that, so publishers will continue forcing developers to use it.

You're living in a bubble. Most gamers don't know and don't care about it

I don't see this as refuting the previous point because those who don't know nor care about Denuvo probably wouldn't be pirating the game regardless. Pirates and entrenched enthusiasts are the ones in the know, so the real question is how many pirates actually purchase games they otherwise wouldn't versus enthusiasts who refrain because of its inclusion.
