Expresses all hate and insults.
So if they watermark, then this may become an issue. If you buy a game over steam for the purpose of leaking, steam or some payment provider knows your bank account. From that you can be traced down.
So to hide, a cracker would need to have a fake bank account, or live somewhere lawless like in Russia.
Watermarking isn’t to stop you from buying a game on steam and cracking it, it’s to stop you from uploading screenshots or videos of a game you have alpha/beta access to.
If a game does ship with this, it’s also shipping with denuvo. A cracker that can bypass denuvo can bypass the watermarking too.
There’s no need for a bank account, since you can buy games on steam using gift cards bought with cash.
Oh great! Then that is no problem at all.
you can top up your steam account with cash directly at any payment terminal
Denuvo is great for pushing players to older or indie games, games free of exploitive design.
All DRM is anti-consumer and negatively impacts paying customers. I’m open to friendly discussion on this opinion :)
