I finally want to play this, but I don’t feel confortable with Denuvo. Unfortunately I bought the game on Steam way before I cared about DRM.
I read about the “leaked” unprotected .exe that was used to crack the game ahead of launch and I was wondering if FG’s repack using CODEX’s release is the one based on that unprotected .exe so I can grab that to play without installing Denuvo.
thanks in advance!
edit: it probably has Denuvo, since the CODEX release is “Episode Ardyn”, which came out a year or so later, and the NFO mentions Denuvo in “protection”. I’ll be giving up, hoping they remove Denuvo from the Steam game sometime in the future

Hypervisor Bypass (INTEL & AMD) by DenuvOwO + Goldberg emu applied over
[b]Many antiviruses, including Windows Defender are now marking HV files as rootkits, rendering games unplayable. To avoid it either turn off AV completely, or add source/target installation folders to exclusions[/b]
VBS.cmd script v1.7.2 added
Custom launcher added for easier HV steps processingI’m not sure what point you’re trying to make, to be honest… I may need a bit more info lol
Hypervisor bypass is still with denuovo, it is just tricking it
I know, that’s why I specified in the OP that I’m asking about the CODEX release (at the end of FG’s post, hidden behind a spoiler “older, non-hv repack”), not the DenuvOwO one
UPCOMING REPACKS
Once again, I have no idea what you’re talking about.
It’s not an upcoming repack, it’s a game from 2018, cracked ahead of release thanks to EA’s Origin launcher pushing an unprotected (no Denuvo) demo executable. Comments in the Discuss section at the bottom of FG’s page show that the repack was online on March 16 2018.
I’m not talking about the mobile game, but about the “WINDOWS EDITION” V1261414 NON-HV. As I already mentioned, after the link to the HV repack, there’s a spoilered section with links to the old, non-HV repack and I’m asking if anyone knows whether this version, using CODEX release, is the one with the unprotected .exe or not
yep.
zoomies have lost all ability to read.

V1261414 is lost to time, and repacking. but v116052 is coming soon.
You’re acting awfully smug and, like the pot calling the kettle black, doing so without an ounce of self-awareness.


Isn’t the whole point of cracks removing DRM? It has been a while since I played games containing Denuvo but I believe the cracks strip it out.
In the past, before Denuvo? Yes, but Denuvo is another beast and cracks are mostly bypasses (Denuvo still present, and its checks are spoofed) if I’m not mistaken
