Unfortunately the games that use these problematic copy protection methods have unreliable cracks (if they are cracked at all). Off the top of my head MGS5, Judgment, and FF15 all have cracks that are outdated and break with each major Windows update, which is not a good situation with respect to the PC platform’s reputation for game longevity.
The situation in linux is coincidentally better by these games not being native linux builds, which lets users choose older WINE compatibility environments without impacting the rest of the system, I suppose.
I can’t blame anyone for thinking that. I guess I am saying that the situation would certainly be worse if these games were natively built for any other operating system.
I hate how the most reliable denuvo cracker crashed out and turned out to be actually insane (probably a requirement to crack it tbh) and an awful person

Windows in general isn’t a good situation with respect to PC gaming longevity.

I’m also saying that within a couple decades, I don’t think windows will exist. I say this as a user of Dos and Windows for almost 40 years

I wonder what you are on about after finishing Gabriel Knight 3 a few weeks ago and playing No One Lives Forever at the moment.
I’m saying windows is dying, and will not be useful in long term preservation, on the scale of decades.
