> it's an anti-user feature by definition.

That's an extremely naive take that shows some stark ignorance of the tech and market forces at work.

From a tech standpoint, Denuvo negatively impacting performance has been debunked many times over (see my previous post about that).

On the economical side, you need to realize that whenever you are playing and enjoying a game, it's most likely due to the fact that the previous games sold by that developer have been successful in making money, which was most likely made possible by Denuvo.

In other words, making piracy harder allows the next generation of games to be created.
