What’s the other side for free cloud gaming?

It’s the not-quite-top-end release of a 7-year-old architecture - of course people are going to move on from it even with the current pricing environment. It doesn’t help that the 2060 was roughly equivalent in raster performance at its launch even in games programmed with the older architecture in mind.

In complete fairness the Senate is actually working on the shutdown - their last vote on a CR package passed 77-19 (all nays were R) but McCarthy in the House is rejecting it outright.

FF7R was full game length but ended when the party left Midgar; in the original game that is a bit before the end of Disc 1.

Granted, the Midgar section was greatly expanded for the remake and it’s pretty clear that we’re not necessarily doing a 1:1 equivalence with the original game…

For what - getting around to finishing what would probably have been the day-one patch if they hadn't released a month early to avoid Starfield?

Didn’t their subscriber count go up fairly dramatically after the restrictions started?

Nobody cracked the PC version until after the removal.

Always online aside, the reason Denuvo keeps being used is because for most Denuvoed games it takes a lot longer than a few days/weeks for a crack to be released, if ever - there is only one entity that cracks Denuvo anymore, and their releases are sporadic (plus they’re a bit of a … character). Plenty of games still don’t use Denuvo though, and those don’t even last a day.

I don’t quite get slapping it on an always online game where you’re expected to connect directly to their game servers, though.

It is amazingly dumb that the webui doesn’t actually show a user’s instance by default; at least (some) apps are more sane in that regard.

At this rate I wouldn’t be surprised if we defederated the source instance of all this crap just to stop the bleeding - it was stated by Beehaw and clearly obvious now that Lenny’s moderation tools are lacking.
