But DRM or Digital Right Management services is stuck. Denuvo, one of the most popular DRM services available, had more than one slipup this weekend. The first one seems to be a expired domain name. On November 7th, PC gamers were notified of failure to execute game like Shadow of the Tomb RaiderandGuardians of the Galaxy. Discussions on ResetEra, and threads on Steam started flooding in immediately as the players found more offline single-player games that were unplayable. It’s killed your game with multiple other games I imagine. picture.twitter.com/rQk58K4AuJ @shadowofwargame. — Alex Buckland (@alexbuckland96) November 7, 2021. Were not sure how many games were affected, but the number is high. As of the above, users discussed the problems of the word Yakuza, ‘The Dead?’ and ‘Sixty-sixty-sixeen’.Although it’s not confirmed, Denuvo hasn’t renewed its domain to authenticate the games. The domain records show that the years of this massive fiasco went on November 7 the same day. Previously, the domain expired on September 24. There were several weeks ago when the domain provider pulled the plug. It ultimately fell into the mind of PC gamers who purchased and tried single-player offline games. That news is very sad considering the launch of the recent 12th generation Alder Lake platform of Intel. Following the launch, Intel released a list of 51 games that are not compatible with the platform. According to Intel, the DRM services used by the games used have certain problems with the processors architecture, and led to a permanent harrowing effect across Windows 10 and Windows 11. We have identified the issues from our Intel Core i9-12900K exam. Assassins Creed Valhalla, one of the main benchmarks we used, refused to boot when using the processor. Assassins Creed Valhalla is one of a lot of games that aren’t working now. For its part, Denuvo released a statement saying that it provided patches to the Alder Lake titles before being released. No matter who blames on the game itself, it shows a huge list of AAA games which are not playable with the latest technology. And a few publishers, EA, Ubisoft and Sega, in particular, have had issues with Denuvo in the past. Before Alder Lakes launch, Square Enix removed Denuvo from several of its games, includingNier Replicant, Marvels Avengers and Final Fantasy XII. Similarly, Bethesda removed the DRM fromDoom Eternal,and Capcom followed suit withDevil May Cry V.Cheering again, and then, for this year, many big problems were brought to Denuvo, but the DRM caused a huge stuttering problem inResident Evil Village. The issue of DRM is happening this weekend. A lot, as it was before, and the people who pay for antipiracy aren’t pirates who legitimately buy their products. From the lack of connection to authentication servers to the inexplicable crashes with the latest CPUs, DRM continues to prove that buying and owning are two different things. hey, this game’s getting down yet? I’m having a “server isn’t able to reach” pop up every time I try to start the game 🙁 pic.twitter.com/ucChwOl7I6 – I see how it happens that one is not possible to reach any client as a – I don’t see anyone else as a – server. — Erwin (@ErwinHaris07) November 7 2021
