And all of her simps will fall over eachother at her feet over this.
Why hasn't anyone yet done the ballsy move by just learning her tricks and distributing that to everyone to learn? Why does it have to be this unhinged bitch?
From what I gathered, she's pretty much a genius at cracking
Cracking Denuvo isn't particularly hard as much as it is extremely tedious. Checks are baked everywhere in the game code, so there are (at least) thousands of little edits you have to make, and if only one of them was implemented wrong or hasn't been located (this is gamecode, tied to in-game events), no more game. (This is a flawed explanation, but you get the deal)
It's enough to drive most crackers insane... hence EMPRESS.
I only took 1 Reverse Engineering class in my CompSci program, so I could be wrong... but I am pretty sure it is both extremely tedious and also extremely difficult to crack Denuvo
It is pretty entertaining though, isn't it? Like, this is the closest we will ever get to the movie Hackers, but in real life.
So basically this is:
"mess with the best. Die like the [insert random offensive slur here]"
I think you may need to add some more slur placeholders in there, but yes.
Cracking Denuvo is hard as fuck!
No matter how unhinged she is, she's very talented.
I like to believe that if anyone else succeeds in cracking Denuvo, they will become as insane as empress in the process
It doesn't help that almost everyone good enough to crack it gets paid really well to improve it.
Empress being a notable exception cos she's insane
