Quoting: YoRHa-2BWhy do people insist on Denuvo not working on Wine? It's true that some recent-ish games don't run, but pretty much all Denuvo games that came out in the past couple of months work just fine.

Hitman II has a new version of Denuvo and whilst the training mission works, I'm not willing to shell out just yet to see if the main campaign works!

Quoting: mylkawhy not shadow of the tomb raider and hitman 2 ?

also batman origin,styx, flame and the flood and prey

I hope they do not add shadow of the tomb raider and hitman 2. Games we may get ports of should not be purchased using steam play imo.

The full version of Hitman II has Denuvo so is unlikely to work via Proton at the moment. Best to wait for a port.

Sadly, no update to this game since v1.04 back in late June. There is dev silence in the Steam forum and it's beginning to look abandoned :-(

On Steam at £9.99 this weekend so I've picked it up. Played about 3 hours so far and am very impressed at what is probably my first 'RPG' of this genre. Graphics are gorgeous and the mechanics seem easy to understand at the moment.

One strange thing is that I was originally intending to play with my Logitech F710 but could not successfully redefine the left stick and D-pad via Steam. For some reason left-stick up still produced the D-pad up action.

Still, it seems easier to play with keyboard and mouse anyway :-)

Played the demo some time ago and was impressed. Today I bit the bullet and bought the game and - three battles in - I'm not disappointed. The stats and levelling systems took a bit of getting used to, but the game's very enjoyable so far.

This is now priced at GBP1.69 on Steam, with a free map pack DLC. I'm wondering whether to get it or not..?

Quoting: GustyGhostIt's kind of like ARK except the developers actually know what they are doing.

I laughed out loud at this and my missus gave me a funny look :-)
