   @f5dce68e49a6bdbafa7e11a42f3bbe5bcc21e071531375d886d3bba92399fcbb cracked months after the fact. They've always said that they were happy with an anti-piracy solution if the first couple of weeks were protected

Just off the top of my head, I can think of several Denuvo protected games that still haven't had their PC releases cracked despite being out for years and that pirates have to resort to emulating the Switch releases for (actually this is most major Japanese games using it)

     @lewdthewides @f5dce68e49a6bdbafa7e11a42f3bbe5bcc21e071531375d886d3bba92399fcbb absolutely my favorite bit of denuvo lore lmao, the fact that one of the three guys capable of cracking it just does sports games and literally nothing else, gigachad energy

     @meeper @lewdthewides @f5dce68e49a6bdbafa7e11a42f3bbe5bcc21e071531375d886d3bba92399fcbb Because it's just really solidly engineered to defeat efforts to crack it. With the advent of cheap and ubiquitous CPU power, you can do things with encryption that console vendors only dream of. (and this is without getting into ring 0 anticheats like Vanguard)

     why so few peoole can crack it, insider information or keys?

     There's a certain kind of determination/obsession required that I doubt is that common.
