Fuck Crunchyroll.

Crunchyroll is evil. I cancelled my subscription when I was lacking closed captions on english dubbed content (for a show that didn't even have other audio available) and when I looked into their forums a staff member replied "We're an entertainment service not a language learning service", completely ignoring hearing impairment exists.

Denuvo properly cracked in Resident Evil: Requiem, bypasses become plug-and-play — cracked version runs faster, smoother, and uses way less VRAM and RAM

This is an atrociously researched and misinformed article.

The cracked Requiem predictably runs faster, smoother, and uses far fewer resources than the HV version, and presumably by extension, than the full paid-for release.

The author is assuming the comparison to the Hypervisor crack applies to the legitimate version with no basis whatsoever. Voices38 themselves only claimed it runs better than the HV version, giving as reasons that the HV driver is hardcoded for a specific configuration that may not match the actual host (cpu cores, cpu instructions, ram) and can degrade performance. [1]

We can and should hate denuvo but since this crack is just a different kind of bypass (a userspace one) we can't know how the game would run without it and anything else is pure speculation.

Why is every person involved in a movie listed in the credits?

You don't see a plaque when you walk into a building listing everyone who laid a brick as part of the construction.

We totally should do this though. Imagine how cute it'd be to have a construction worker be able to visit a building they helped build with their family or friends and point at their name engraved somewhere with a happy grin.

No one has such a tangible impact on shaping our world as people who create, they should be credited no matter the medium.
