==Denuvo's servers go down and prevent a single-player game from even being playable.==

==Page move==

I don't believe there is enough material to merit having Denuvo Anti-Tamper and Denuvo Anti-Cheat on separate article pages. Both topics should be unified under the main name of simply [[Denuvo]], which currently exists as a redirect page to DAT. (This is especially made easier with there still being no existing article for DAC.) — [[User:Sojourna|Sojourna]] ([[User talk:Sojourna|talk]]) 23:27, 12 September 2025 (UTC)

::I still believe it should be done, however I have no experience with page merging. Perhaps @[[User:Keith|Keith]]? — [[User:Sojourna|Sojourna]] ([[User talk:Sojourna|talk]]) 02:32, 3 April 2026 (UTC)

:::Could this page just be move to Denuvo or would that not work? [[User:Andrew V|Andrew V]] ([[User talk:Andrew V|talk]]) 02:37, 3 April 2026 (UTC)

::::Luckily, the redirect page had no edit history so I was able to move Denuvo Anti-Tamper over it. — [[User:Sojourna|Sojourna]] ([[User talk:Sojourna|talk]]) 02:47, 3 April 2026 (UTC)

::::The main things that need to be considered are changes to the cargo data and article formatting, as presumably it would change into a company article. most of the info from the merged articles would be fine to keep as-is but again might need some restructuring [[User:Keith|Keith]] ([[User talk:Keith|talk]]) 12:50, 3 April 2026 (UTC)

==More on games==

It's been 10 years since Planet Coaster was released. The game still enforces Denuvo despite lacking any online features and the fact that it was already busted wide-open 2 weeks before release.

Similarly one of the famous game cracking groups have stated that the impact of Denuvo on Fable is a 30% performance loss.

There's also been allegations of excessive wear and tear on ssd's when games use Denuvo (unconfirmed, but very possible) [[Special:Contributions/77.105.213.37|77.105.213.37]] 22:00, 24 January 2026 (UTC)
