spez,

The popularly linked post in this thread has a link to empress’ Indian rant but that’s dead now, so here’s a screenshot :

Crazy bitch

OMG, its like being at the point in your RPG game where you are tasked to retrieve the DRM-free game, but you know the price from the crazed troll is going to be your rogue’s head and all your gear, else more violence.

nyternic,

Pretty sad that this bitch is getting paid to crack things. I don’t know what’s stopping a band of people to just hack her shit up and take what’s been helping to crack denuvo so it isn’t bottlenecked by unchecked individuals such as she.

K0W4LSK1,

I honestly think her mental illness is what gives her the ability to Crack denuvo

niha,

a classic Empress “crack” note

TheShitAbyss,

I am fully lost most the time on here but I am learning a lot

Viking_Hippie,

Apparently that’s NOT an acceptable thing to say while performing brain surgery for the first time! Oh well, my patient kinda almost survived 🤷

Incidentally, that’s the Empress origin story.

Viking_Hippie,

Sounds about right 😁

Ktheone,

IDK who that is but Jesus this person must be terminally online.

Chakura,

She is apparently the only person who knows how to crack Denuvo.

Variden3301,

She is a wizard in cracking drm protected games. But a little crazy

Can somebody enlighten me on who this is and why I should care?

VioletteRei,
@VioletteRei@lemmy.world avatar

It’s the only person who can crack Denovo-protected games

She’s also a delusional wannabe cult leader and may actually be insane.

sounddrill,

this sums her up pretty well surprisingly

zikk_transport2,

The one where you have to pay 1000€ (or $) to enter, so she could share some life truths? 😅

@flatplutosociety@lemmy.world avatar

Okay well now I’m interested. I’ve been looking for a fun new cult to join.

Viking_Hippie, (edited )

I know a better one that has excellent coffee and also open bar karaoke every week. It’s sorta like Lions Club, except we’re the Liars Club. We mostly recruit from law schools and political campaigns, of course.

You should check out her rants. They release with each of her releases. Little info file.

You should see her rant on Hogwarts Legacy.

FluffyPotato,

Every other group got legal action taken against them so they stopped cracking denuvo, Empress doesn’t care since she’s in Russia. Denuvo’s legal team is more competent than their developers unfortunately.

mojo,

wtf is the context here and who is this person

MrCrowBard,

Empress is a video game cracker, the only active cracker who releases games protected by Denuvo. That’s an extremly popular digital rights management system for stop game cracks used by Triple A game publishers. She is also completely nuts and regularly has very odd rants. It appears she’s accusing 1337x owners of inserting malware into releases. 1337x is a popular site for accessing torrents of cracked games and one Empress regularly released on.

areyouevenreal,

Any idea on if her accusations are actually true?

AceFuzzLord,

As crazy as that makes Empress sound, I’m definitely willing to look past this kinda stuff because it’s best not to bite the hand that might feed you.

Also, we definitely need more crackers (especially of the d€nuvo kind) to step up and train the next generation of crackers instead of just ranting online about their torrents being removed from popular sites.

Bonskreeskreeskree,

Excusing crazy people doing crazy things cause they give you free stuff is the shittiest take I’ve seen on lemmy

imaqtpie,
@imaqtpie@sh.itjust.works avatar

Everybody’s crazy. It’s 2023.

Bonskreeskreeskree,

Are you really comparing “everyone” to empress?

imaqtpie,
@imaqtpie@sh.itjust.works avatar

I’m just saying getting stuff from Empress is no worse than getting it from a corporation. She’s going to be equally crazy whether you download her cracks or not, at least she’s not exploiting child labor or destroying the environment in the process.

Bonskreeskreeskree,

Corporations aren’t going to fill their software with crypto mining malware and when exposed go torched earth trying to put the blame on their accusers.

imaqtpie,
@imaqtpie@sh.itjust.works avatar

Exactly. I’d rather take the unhinged rants and malware than the destruction of the planet and perversion of human society, thank you very much

WarmSoda,

Do you download cracked games?

Xaxetrov,

I mean it is not hard, you have only been there for 3 days 😁

AceFuzzLord,

I personally believe that, since piracy is already illegal in the developed world, and since I live in a politically divided first world country, that we don’t need to bring politics and stuff into this.

Besides, we don’t have many better options when it comes to d€nuvo than to accept the people who crack games with modern variations of it. I especially don’t since I’m not smart enough to crack it and also since I go for pre-cracked games for the convenience of not having to apply the cracks myself.

Polymorph,
@Polymorph@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

But that’s capitalism.

s0phia,
@s0phia@lemmy.world avatar

Oh, she still exists…

K0W4LSK1,

Until someone else comes along to Crack Denuvo she will be around

Crow,
@Crow@lemmy.world avatar

Black hats and white hats, it’s a duality, like hot and cold 😂

hardypart,
@hardypart@feddit.de avatar

Empress is neither a hacker nor a white hat, lol

sh3ll,

🤔 is there any evidence of what empress told?

Antiques,

Something probably might have happened. Cause she has been using 1337x for a longtime now.

MetalHead77,

With CPY and Codex gone the PC cracking scene is dead and gone as far as AAA games are concerned. Denuvo is too difficult and time consuming to crack. The scene lost.

Vampiric_Luma,
@Vampiric_Luma@lemmy.ca avatar

Yep, and I don’t feel all that bad. AAA games have been getting shafted for ages.

Now we can support and enjoy even more indie games, big companies can suck it while losing more money, and inevitably something will come along against Denuvo down the line.

And maybe Empress can recoup. Seems like she’s not in a great place atm.
