    until they are inevitably cracked (which has been done with many denuvo games already) and pirates enjoy better performance once again.

      That’s the (unknown) future. But currently they are not cracked. Hence you can’t pirate them.

      I used to pirate back in the day and the fact that you no longer had updates or fixes was a huge issue. It’s actually the number one reason I no longer pirate games. It’s not worth my time or frustration to deal with a virus, bad crack or crashing game. Also since I stopped pirating I’ve had exactly 0 malware/trojan infections.

        I pirate all the time. Until recently mostly on public trackers. Had malware once when I was like 12 and that’s about it. Sounds like a skill issue. Also, most cracked games get updates.
