I'm a good boy.
I'll just wait for the FitGirl release.
Spoken like a true fitgirl follower
haha is that a good or a bad thing?
I've looked so hard and couldn't find it just now, but it's possible I was thinking of Empress
One of them (I think) had a cult following and to "join" you'd have to act like a submissive male or something to that effect and acknowledge women or her being superior or something to that effect
I'm a little foggy on the details and can't find it right now but hopefully someone knows what I am talking about and can link an explainer lol
That's Empress that had the sub following. She was knows as being the only person who could crack Denuvo DRM until the hypervisor bypass was found
Or the only one insane enough to crack multiple titles. I think there were 1 or 2 other groups who did but it seems to be a headache inducing time sinks which could prove pointless after many updates. Please do correct me if I am wrong on that as I am pretty out of touch.
Nah, I think your right that others have cracked a game or two, but then said they would never do it again. And I think there was someone else who would crack Denuvo regularly, but it was for Fifa or some other sports game and that was all he did. Empress was just the only one to do it consistently, and it quickly turned into a shit show with her cult and her asking for donations/saying she would only crack certain games if people donated thousands of dollars
anthropologically speaking it might be worth paying her if she'll keep doing it. most cracks are forever, after all
I'm going to have to disagree with you there. Denuvo is sold as a subscription and the devs/publishers aren't going to be paying for it forever. They usually remove Denuvo in a year or two of a game's release, and then they usually get cracked immediately after
I don't know them, FitGirl she just repacks cracked games and compresses them. But personally what I like is that her repacks often have everything included. I often download from her (if she really is a her) or DODI repacks, just out of sheer convenience really haha. I'm not the simping type. If you're in the mood for a crazy simping story though look up the name "Grant Amato" theres whole documentaries in him. Its probably the craziest story about simping I ever seen and I like to call him "the king of simps". I doubt theres any bigger simp out there than Grant.
I am a cynic on this specific event. I think this is all Rockstar's marketing ploy.
I don't follow any gaming-specific news, and haven't paid money for a game in over a decade. All my gaming needs are satisfied by the few FOSS games. And here I am learning of the GTA 6's approaching release. If this is marketing, Rockstar practically raped into my eyeballs the fact that their game is coming out soon. Fuck. I am not even their target audience and here I am.
I say all this is pure marketing by Rockstar. Just my gut feeling.
Honestly, I don't think so
The main reason being, that they genuinely don't need it. GTA6 is the most anticipated game this decade, probably only topped by half life 3
They already are in the news every time someone in that company farts, no leak necessary
This is more like a piñata than a dead man’s switch.
So many people are going to try to trigger this and get the game for free.
Its wild that these "hackers" used discord and microsoft? What did they think was gonna happen, obviously these companies are going to try and crush them with all available methods/resources
I hope they don't use Discord. Discord does very strong browser fingerprinting.
Can't feel any kind of empathy or interest towards anyone or anything under T2I's umbrella.
Or any publisher/developer that insists you use their proprietary launcher to play single player.
Do Rockstar still do that? I haven't bought a game of theirs since...checks watch ~~ever~~ RDR2
No idea. They started using some kind of really flawed captcha years ago that made it impossible for me to access my account. I emailed them to delete it since I wouldn't be able to play my purchased games anyway and they didn't comply. I wouldn't give them another cent even if they merged with Jesus Christ himself.
even if they merged with Jesus Christ himself
That motherfucker has some explaining to do.

Playable could mean anything from "slightly janky debug build" to "load into texture-less world, walk around for 5 minutes and BSOD"
This is fake news
This is a fake post.
And so the company wars started.
sorry but if anyone thinks the "gta leaks" are anything but controlled pr by rockstar, you're delusional.
Considering they're subpoenaing Microsoft to try and find the leaker via window's device ID, I think spouting baseless conspiracy nonsense is delusional...
they literally want to tap into people's onedrive accounts.
i hope the hacker leaks the entire fucking game.
they literally want to tap into people's onedrive accounts
But enough about Microsoft! 😉
any hacker worth their salt isn't using windows to hack a high profile target anyway, that'd be dumb.
Wait, how can you subpoena someone without a court case? Or what are they suing MS for?
As far as I can tell there aren't really any rules anymore if you annoy rich people enough. They just sort of come after you regardless.
I would assume they have some sort of case open in the court system to try and punish the leaker, and are requesting a subpoena to get info from Microsoft as part of trying to track the leaker down.
Ah, that makes sense. I forgot you could subpoena 3rd parties
You think Take-Two is pushing a scam shitcoin to show an old version of their game in the worst light possible?
Yes
