The ability to launch games without reverse engineering them and disabling their DRM is no longer a requirement when selling games on Steam. Lovely.

CRAPCOM will be using this new DRM schemes in all their games from this point forward, no doubt. The entire executable is encrypted and packed, alongside a few platform support DLLs (steam_api64.dll). Executable has to be unpacked to modify, or in my case, to even fix the problem that prevents it from launching.

This is worse than Steam Input, at least when the -native- Steam Input API is added to a game AFTER you buy it, you still have a mostly functional game (sans ability to play the game using a gamepad).

Please do not support this, it is a very bad precedent. Denuvo is actually looking desirable compared to CRAPCOM's latest shenanigans. All users should be eligible for refunds no matter how many hours played if they keep this crap.

How will this DRM affect games that use third party engines (Street FIghter V uses Unreal Engine 4) or games that they no longer have the source code for (the entirety of the Dead Rising franchise)?
