Remember kids, complain to the publisher and developer. They are the ones paying for Denuvo and you are the ones paying for the game.

If you are paying for a game with Denuvo then you are paying for Denuvo. Don't buy games with invasive software in them you don't want invasive software 🤷‍♀️ Sure, complain to the developer and the publisher, but you give them the money to waste on Denuvo if you buy the game

Do both. Don't buy it and tell the publisher you'll buy it when they remove denuvo.
