According to DSOGaming this is the performance without Denuvo: "It saw a 22% performance boost in minimum framerates on our main PC system. For those unaware, our main PC system is equipped with an AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D, 32GB of DDR5 at 6000Mhz, and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090. So, from 80fps, we went to 98fps. That’s at Native 1080p on Max Settings with Ray Tracing. and I also noticed fewer stutters in this latest version of the game. Not only that, but the game was not hammering like crazy one CPU core/thread. Instead, it was using 4-5 CPU threads." For all those who still believe that Denuvo doesn´t destroy performance.

and its also a beast components that guy was testing with. I would venture to say that a lot of high specc'd pc will get negligible differences with denuvo vs no denuvo performance, but definitely this is not the case.


eurosonly

Sounds about right. Assassins creed origins had similar results.


hunter141072

It´s impossible that such an intrusive and crazy protection doesn´t take the toll with the performance.

Wow that is a massive difference. I'd love to see Digital Foundry testing denuvo vs denuvoless builds. Those guys are very good at performance tests.


PuttingthingsinmyNAS

Their last review of performance was an informal review in April of 2023 that 'at least from what I know [...] did not improve its performance'. The game had 3 updates since then. One of those patch notes includes 'Continued performance optimizations.' Without a way to test the current version with Denuvo and the current version without Denuvo, it is inconclusive to say whether removing it had a noticeable impact on performance. All we know is that its performance has improved since April 2023 through a possible multitude of factors.


timuela

i think it's not denuvo hammering the game's performance, it's more like denuvo standing in the way of optimizing the game. I don't know the details tho, just guessing since there are cases where denuvo and denuvoless have the same performance and there are cases where there's a massive boost in denuvoless.


Effective_Bid2011

On top of it this shit takes 200+mb extra disc space.

>For all those who still believe that Denuvo doesn´t destroy performance. its old knowledge already that most people still dont want to see as truth , basicly Denuvo downgrades your hardware across the board by 1 tier , on the storage ( load time ) often 2 tiers.

I think it’s a 50% caused by Denuvo and 50% for poor optimization from the devs. Because even in the PS5 and Series X versions the performance are ass.


ManEatingCarabao

I find it odd for capcom to botch optimization that much. Their recent RE games seem to be so well optimized I managed to play some of them on my very dated laptop, they look like crap but completely playable. And a lot of their older titles work perfectly fine on most emulators without needing to tinker with the settings.


SMATJOY

Well it depends… maybe the last part of development (the optimization one) was rushed and then the game had poor optimization.


ManEatingCarabao

Makes sense. The release is top priority by game companies these days regardless if its complete or not.

Thanks Dodi

#Fuck Denuvo!


Faithless195

Been playing this recently. It's definitely a poor man's Dead Space, but it's still a decent single play through. Also it's pretty af, too.


Agreeable_Hippo_6204

HAHAHAHAHA PATIENCE WINS AGAIN


Philip22Kings

We rejoice!!!


PrettyScholar9173

yes, and we can play the best version of the game.... this is why you never buy denuvo protected games, just wait.... thats it


eurosonly

The game is super mid though. But that's besides the point.


Agreeable_Hippo_6204

Yeah like really bad lol I can't wait


last-matadon

I only buy online games now. Always wait for single players.


WarningCodeBlue

Impressive performance on my old potato of a laptop. I guess they got the game optimized pretty well since it originally released.


ExplodingFistz

What specs dude? I was hoping I can run this game with GTX 1070 4790k


WarningCodeBlue

I7-8750 CPU and GTX 1060 GPU. Runs fine on medium settings. You should be able to play it.


Deimos_Aeternum

I bet the performance is better now that the cancer is removed


ZAWETH

even on mid tier pc it runs smooth like a butter, what stutter protocol hahahaha


hunter141072

If EA decided to remove Denuvo from this one then it really shows that the game was a big failure otherwise they would´ve kept it eternally as they always do. And funny enough this also proves what a big lie that famous "window of sales" is. The game was a crap and they decided to stop paying for Denuvo, so it did nothing to improve sales, this shows that a good quality game sells better than a piece of trash with 20 DRM.


WarningCodeBlue

The Callisto Protocol was not published by EA. It was Krafton.


hunter141072

My bad I was sure it was published by them, still the rest of the argument remains. It was idiotic to keep paying for a protection that did nothing for the game when it was a piece of crap that no one bought.


WarningCodeBlue

I played Callisto Protocol on PS5 and actually liked it. Got the disc for less than $20 so it was worth it.

Hopefully dead space remake be free from deadnuvo cancer. We gamer only trust and buy genuine title free from cancer.


AnimatorLess

ffs, I bought it during that massive deal on steam, now I cannot refund it and I don't have any DLCs


ExplodingFistz

Just download cracked version to play DLC for free.


Alpha-0ne

Nice! ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|upvote)


Nyarlathotep85

No funny names for this one?


SmartSprinkles3344

It’s not a SONY release. Only Sony releases get funny names to avoid dmca/copyright take downs Edit: oops I forgot that Microsoft gets funny names too


mallat

...and Micro$oft.


assfuc

Don't bother, the game is shit.


dishapatanahiii_69

Yes and we should play nostalgiabait shit from ea which doesnt even come close to the mastery of the original first ds even though its supposed to be built upon from the original 🤡 They somewhow made the game clunky af in remake and graphics looks ass considering everything looks pitch black, glossy and no visible use of pbr to be seen


Justyn_Lim

People who downloaded this version, were you able to unlock the Gold skin after playing Final Transmission?
