Doesn't all Sony games have some kind of joke protection just for the sake of it or literally no protection at all?


methkun

They just have basic steam drm, they don't really care about it since most of their profit is from console releases and its prolly their attempt to broaden the reach to pc players.


massinvader

they only release to PC once they've beat the hell out of their segregated market with it. they don't care about paying more for better DRM. it's a secondary revenue stream.


Arkhaloid

I hope it stays that way.


massinvader

why? exclusives are an anti-consumer practice. they're all computer games...why do i need your special computer to play it?


Arkhaloid

I hope it stays that way because if PC was a main revenue stream for them they most definitely would've used uncrackable DRM which I don't want.


massinvader

oh sweet child, if they did not have exclusives, this would have been cracked for you years ago lol


blitzkrieg_01

Ngl it's effective. I'm considering buying a ps5 just for the convenience.


[deleted]

Not even a day lmfaoooo


WackoSaco

The Last Of Us Part 1 was cracked 35 minutes after release lol


[deleted]

Actually fucking insane. I work in Cybersecurity myself part time and it’s insane how fast these crackers are.


samp127

Anyone could do it you literally drop in generic steam crack from Goldberg and voila.

He's complimenting my profile picture. It's an incredible album from Nas called Kings Disease 3. "Win KD3 profile picture"

These games release on Steam without any 3rd party DRM. The basic steam DRM is the same for all games listed in the steam platform. People have already made publicly available libraries that can be used to bypass the basic Steam DRM for any game. This bypass is called an "emu" and these work across all games that have the basic steam DRM. You just need to change a few parameters in an ini file and it'll work. That's why these games without any 3rd party DRM are cracked so fast. They can even be cracked by normal people like us with a little bit of guidance.


ThoughtOrdinary

I prefer to apply the goldberg emu over clean steam files all day everyday. Cs rin is goated. Steam auto crack is also a neat little tool.


t0nine

How does one acquire the steam files to apply crack?


ghoST_need_CTL

They are uploaded by users in cs rin and such forums. You can download clean steam files for pretty much any steam game from there.


[deleted]

Interesting. I have never tried, I usually just get repacks


FloppyNips

There's almost no DRM on Sony games.


DahLegend27

sounding a little racist there lmfao


[deleted]

Lmfao


wallcolmx

they reverse engineer afaik


ldn-ldn

If I remember correctly it was GTA IV which was cracked BEFORE release.


givemetheclicker

well, yeah obviously. it only has steam drm lmfao


[deleted]

I’m guessing steam either doesn’t give a shit or doesn’t like DRM


GAJODHAR_daddy

From Where do I download it?


dek018

Nice!


Giomoney23

Yea it was cracked within an hour


AmazingAcanthaceae28

So that's why they don't release most of the games on PC first


RealElith

if that was the thing. steam would close down from all pc gamer being a pirate. do your research first.


AmazingAcanthaceae28

Bro in Asia there are no piracy laws you can just download any cracked game anytime you want. I am taking about those playstation or Xbox exclusive games Even GTA 6 is releasing on PS5


RealElith

I can see more and more company stop releasing console exclusive only due to missing sells target. also, many actually supported the GoT on legal means [https://www.windowscentral.com/gaming/after-pc-launch-ghost-of-tsushima-becomes-steams-top-selling-paid-game-soars-past-hades-2-and-helldivers-2](https://www.windowscentral.com/gaming/after-pc-launch-ghost-of-tsushima-becomes-steams-top-selling-paid-game-soars-past-hades-2-and-helldivers-2)


speedweed99

Probably not piracy and more likely the fact that they have a console


Raz0r42

What website is that?


ISwearSheWasLvlLegal

Fitgirl. on the megathread


Raz0r42

Thank you but I should’ve specified that I was referring to the site used to check if the game is cracked


piratekingluffy21

I wanna know the same


Hueyris

This. This subreddit is where you check. Crackwatch used to be a website that was the go to place to know crack status of games. They closed down but the now run this subreddit


The_Cozy_Burrito

I can’t wait to play it now


UmeeZoomee

bigb102913

BurnedOutInGaming

Cofresh

I knew this was going to happen but really wanted to show my support for this game so had to buy it.


Head_Panda6986

I already did on ps4, and ps5.


Head_Panda6986

Of course all the ps5 games are cracked day one


gholamali79

dead space remake still not cracked :(


Boring_Funny_9427

What where you guys expecting? The Sony games have basic STEAM DRM.


AchievementJoe

Might be a dumb question but where can you download these? I have this on PS5 but don’t play it super often on consoles.


Negative_Mechanic_51

fitgirl is a good website


Mrright016

Yoooooooooooooo


TheGGspot

This isn’t news


IllustratorSea3235

Bloob_Boi

Would anyone mind sharing the site in the first image? Thanks.


Negative_Mechanic_51

omycrack


Bloob_Boi

Thank you so much for the fast reply!


jessterswan

Haven't been able to get controls working on steamdeck


DaSilentCuntographer

I wanted this for ages and now it's leeched to fuck I can't get it lol


FixWorth8962

MilesFox1992

They deserved that. If they don't want to sell in in half of the world - we are gonna get it anyway


WhiteOut299

On which Website is it coming?


Straight_Relative713

On the screenshot, fitgirl is repacking it


Negative_Mechanic_51

probably dodi on the way


kavii_

its out on dodi already lol


Negative_Mechanic_51

it's pre-installed


kavii_

What that mean?


ShadowMajick

It means you don't need to install it. Just download the files and open the exe.


lilyeetgang

Does it make any difference in performance or any issue?


neuropantser5

im nowhere near an expert on this stuff but it does prevent there being some error in the unpacking process that borks your file trees, which has happened to me with fitgirl releases before and required an annoying reinstall.


Any-Firefighter-1221

Much deserved because of that psn shittt going on....


Efficient_Ear_8037

I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again, fuck Sony. I will play my games the way I want to play them, not their fucking way


SalamiSimon

Isn't it good that they have such poor protection, shouldn't you attack those who use Denuvo instead


KathaarianCaligula

>I've said it before Everyone's said it before Everyday for like two weeks now


Cream_panzer

Yeah, fuck Sony. I have 800+ games in my Steam library. But after recent helldiver 2 drama. I’ll never buy a single game published by Sony on PC until they giving up the whole PSN shit on PC.

jawo05

You have indeed just seen it


Brave-Iron-6000

Is anybody facing the loading screen after the cutscene #GhostofTsushima


ImportanceSecret7846

Damn they quick with it


raskass_

cool. But if that repack is as Botched as MK11 by fitgirl. it won't matter.


OsamaSukhon

Let this be a lesson for Sony. They shouldn't ban 180 countries from PSN and on top of that do the same thing on PC, what are they going to expect? Everyone is going to crack the game and no one will pay a dime for sony if they eventually release it in all countries simply because they will "lose sales".


ScoobyWithADobie

Dude….this also happened to GoW, LOU and every other Sony game. They know about pirating and they don’t care otherwise they would use denuvo. Also: They didn’t ban psn in these countries it’s just not profitable to create an own psn store with own guidelines etc for these regions due to different laws and regulations in these countries. That would require lawyers specifically trained in the country laws etc and in the end Sony could also get problems with companies that pay for advertisements since some advertisements wouldn’t be allowed in certain countries due to different laws and regulations. In the end it would be fucking expensive and Sony would lose way more cash than they could make with it. Everyone could’ve easily created a psn account choosing a supported region ( it’s a drop down menu to select the region and no one is going to check it. No IP check or anything so you don’t even need a VPN ) but instead of doing that little workaround ( which is a open secret since ps3 era ) people cried about it and now Sony delisted the game in all these regions cause the people on steam demanded “Either support all regions or stop selling the game there.” Now Sony stopped selling the game in unsupported regions cause again: The money they lose is less than it would cost them to support every region.


Cream_panzer

You don’t get it. Players are not mad about blocking countries. We are mad because they blocking countries for pushing PSN accounts bindings. Helldivers 2 was fine without PSN and blocking countries in the first three months, like many other games, a third party account is not necessary for playing an online Co-op game. And the way they pushing this unnecessary PSN account is almost like an order, ordering the paid customer to bind their account. More ridiculously, if you can’t even cover your service in all the countries where Steam serves, like many other publishers who require 3rd-party accounts-binding can, why are you even bother to force binding PSN.


givemetheclicker

mate, Sony does not care about piracy lol they know *plenty* of people will still buy their games even if there are some weirdos online boycotting them. they simply do not care. 


ShadowMajick

It's capitalism. They are a business. They are not going to operate in a country that wouldn't be profitable. I know it sucks, but you also have benefits in some of those countries that we don't. Most of us need a VPN to pirate, you don't. Also regional pricing is still a thing, so a lot of people have to pay way more to play the same game.


ComplainAboutOwTakes

its at the top of steam rn but sure, "everyone is going to crack the game and no one will pay a dime"


GeriatricTech

Just more evidence they will use to justify Denuvo.
