Erm, why not just DL via browser or GOGDownloader, rather than the beta galaxy?

Disc version. If memory serves, that version required what darth outlined and there was no provision to add it to your GOG library so you could DL the game from here. I could be misremembering though.

I'm pretty sure the CD version included a redeemable GoG code (or else how would it work in Galaxy?) This code should work here just like any other game.

Okay, so that means buying games like Limbo or Inside on Steam could possibly cause laptops to over-heat because of all the Denuvo checks during play? My laptop seems very hot on these games. Just sayin...

It required a file that wasn't available before release. They basically gutted the disc version so it was useless till they allowed you to download the file.

The reason some people think Galaxy was required was because the instructions in the box only explained how to play the game through Galaxy.

No, this is not a level of strain you would pretty much ever even notice. The game's own performance is far more important. For instance, games like MGSV and Mad Max pretty much ran like a dream even on low end systems and both have Denuvo.

EDIT: I thought my original post was swallowed up, but now both of them are on this one. Whoops.

I thought it was already known that Mad Max used Denuvo. No real reason to have a DRM FAQ for the game at this point.

As far as the "Not DRM" part of the FAQ (and what people say online) when just calling it an "Anti-Tamper" solution (which honestly annoys me greatly), sorry...but it's still DRM.

When you launch a game using it for the first time it needs to authenticate itself with the Denuvo servers online before playing, which in itself IS DRM. Not to mention that some Denuvo games limit the amount of times you can authenticate a new install within a 24-hour period (Total War: WARHAMMER and a few other games do this, 5 machines a day).

The only experience I have with this DRM is DOOM (but it got removed in a recent patch), and for the most part I didn't really run into any issues. Also really liked the game too, so there's that.

Thank for your info! Appreciated it.

It's known, but only if you check sites that list what games have Denuvo crap in them or someone tells you, but the steam page itself doesn't list it, so anyone buying may not know until it's too late to get a refund.

I heard Mad Max has Denuvo, but other ppl said they removed it. So which is it?

As far as I know these are the only games that had Denuvo removed:

-DOOM
-Inside
-The Climb

When looking around I'm not seeing anything about Denuvo being officially removed from the game, and the FAQ the OP linked was recently added to that Steam Mad Max forum. It's cracked from what I found, but that's it.

Looking at that steam page I wonder if Laptop65 just copied and pasted an official Q & A statement from denuvo since those questions and answers look like the same ones the last couple of times folks have raised queries regarding denuvo.

If TW3 would've had Denuvo, I wouldn't have bought it at full price. I would've probably waited for a 75-80% off. So GG CDPR.

It got removed from the linux version only.

Interesting information. Here was some information, which i didn´t know about Denuvo.

When i first time heard about Denuvo, I guessed, it was another DRM garbage to bully paying customers. Creators of Denuvo might call it anti-tamper system but it still behaves like DRM. I really don`t like DRM, which has online activation system. If some game is good and praised game, I skip the game if it has Denuvo kind shit inside.
