    Denuvo was indeed basically unbeatable until Voices38 started cracking and MKdev released the hypervisor about a year ago.

    The author definitely meant the period before this year and they’re right; before the great return of Denuvo cracking and hypervisor cracks last year, very popular games like Persona 5 Royal and Blackmyth Wukong had no cracks and despite also being the 2 games with the worst offline activation consistency.

    Hypervisor cracks were (or even are) infamous because they’re hard to set up, have to be set up per game (last I heard), aren’t perfectly stable since the live patch the kernel, and mostly because they didn’t meet user expectations. An important point though: hypervisor cracks were available exclusively for Windows.

    Or at least that was the case until the “Linux breakthrough” was revealed yesterday, which gives Linux the ability to run Hypervisor cracks, and with modern CPUs, you can run the hypervisor cracks without even using a hypervisor.

    Support for Linux has to be implemented in the cracks themselves too, though I did read that DenuvOwO (de facto THE hypervisor cracking team) is backporting support to all previous releases :D.

    Of course nothing beats actual cracks but then again hypervisor cracks weren’t support to replace them, they’re supposed to ruin denuvo’s reputation by making games pirateable on day 1 of releasing. This will have a bigger effect now that the cracks are with tinkerers (Linux users) who wouldn’t mind a little setting-up to play their games.
