I have never bought a game for $60 and will continue to never do so.

So good luck selling me on $70!

The value of (non Nintendo) video games drops so fast you really only have yourself to blame if you're paying full price.

Also a lot of games released nowadays aren't even fully optimized or bug-free on release anyway. So people who wait a few months to buy the game are often getting a better product for less money.

That being said there are plenty of games I'm willing to buy for full price if I'm not feeling patient. It's the same concept to me as paying extra to see a movie in theaters VS renting or streaming it later.

Is that a piracy joke? Not sure if you've noticed, but Denuvo games hardly ever get cracked nowadays.

Has it been confirmed to have Denuvo? I haven't seen anything yet and neither the Kingdom Hearts games nor TWEWY had it. Granted I suppose this would be far more likely to have it than either of those.

There used to be a website that showed what games had had their copy protection broken but I think it's gone now. Still, I can't remember many DRM lasting forever unless the game itself went unnoticed due to lack of popularity. Mind you, pirates will crack any cheap, low-quality game. Some seem to just slip through the cracks.

There's this:

https://www.reddit.com/r/CrackWatch/comments/p9ak4n/crack_watch_games/

for Denuvo games. FF7R's on the future Denuvo list, but I'm not sure if there's a source for it. Bravely Default 2 was released on PC recently by Square and also has Denuvo.
