Okay, I'm gonna make some honest criticism on toxic defenders of Denuvo and I won't be giving them any positive pointers whatsoever (due to the DRM being malware). So, here goes.
2. They're highly considered as huge cyberbullies as they'll attack, mock, insult, and ridicule anybody that opposes against Denuvo. Proof here.
- Even though I never witnessed it, but some of these defenders will even use Godwin's law by calling the honest detractors "Nazis", which is extremely offensive as some of these detractors are Jewish/part-Jewish.
3. They're extremely stubborn to the point where they refuse to handle any form of criticism as they'll just deliberately ignore it in favor of hyping over a Denuvo-implemented game.
- On that topic, they have a really nasty habit of making up petty excuses, using hate memes, muting/blocking detractors, and throwing insults (as stated above).
- Furthermore, they're too stupid to realize that you can't play Denuvo-implemented games offline, the fact that some of these games' technical performances will get negatively impacted, you have limited freedom with mods, and how dangerous the DRM is to computers as it's considered as malware. I'm pretty sure some of them may have their computers ruined by Denuvo at some point.
4. Hypocrisy:
- Even if you politely ask the devs to remove Denuvo from a game, the toxic defenders will straight-up flame you by telling you how much of a "douchebag" you are for just wanting a DRM-free version of the game. This is rather hypocritical since the Denuvo defenders ARE the ones being douchebags to begin with.
- They'll call Denuvo detractors "trolls" despite the defenders themselves being trolls.
- They'll tell you off for being "disrespectful" towards the devs for just requesting them to remove Denuvo even though the defenders ARE being disrespectful towards gamers.
5. Not only are they everywhere on the Steam forums, but also on Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, and many other social media sites. Write a comment to the devs to remove Denuvo, and the defenders will respond with petty replies such as "STFU and GTFO", "It's not the end of the world if that game has Denuvo in it", "Empress will be out of her DRM-cracking job if there's no more Denuvo", or "Nobody cares". Actually, several gamers DO care about the dangers of Denuvo!
6. They'll ask or try to force detractors to play the games as they are (aka games that still have Denuvo). Fortunately, the detractors refused to do so as they're waiting for that DRM to be removed.
7. They think Denuvo is the best thing to have in games, when it's honestly not.
8. Overall, these defenders have absolutely no remorse for those that wanted to play the DRM-free version of any game they want (like in my case, Digimon Story: Time Stranger) and they generally gave the PC gaming community a bad name, which is really saying a lot.
Here's hoping you guys agree with my criticism on these toxic defenders.
Why They're (Ironically) Anti-Gamer
1. To get the elephant out of the room first: many of these people have a huge support for Denuvo being implemented in games as if it's the best thing to do despite its abysmal reputation.2. They're highly considered as huge cyberbullies as they'll attack, mock, insult, and ridicule anybody that opposes against Denuvo. Proof here.
- Even though I never witnessed it, but some of these defenders will even use Godwin's law by calling the honest detractors "Nazis", which is extremely offensive as some of these detractors are Jewish/part-Jewish.

Agreed. Denuvo should stop being a thing.
