It's really a shame, because I was super excited for MH:Wilds, but the confirmation that it will include Denuvo killed my enthusiasm completely.

At least Capcom eventually removes denuvo from their games. I'll probably wait until that happens to play Wilds.

Yeah, and at that point I'll also just wait for a 50% off sale, whereas I would otherwise have been a day 1 purchase.

I feel like this happens a lot, honestly - there'll be a game I'm really excited for, and either it's got some shitty DRM, or it's a timed Epic exclusive, or whatever else, and then a few months later when I could be playing it, I've mentally moved on to other things and I end up just buying it much later on deep sale if at all.

There's a lot of games coming out all the time; if I get past that initial hype period around launch without buying a thing, it's 50% or more off, or I won't buy it at all.

Doing the same here for Dragon's Dogma 2.
