My high school did this. They hauled me and my friends in front of one of the deans because we’d been playing chess in the lunch room, and they said that if they let us play chess, they’d have to let the other students play dominos, and when they play dominos, they gamble, and when they gamble, fights break out, and there weren’t enough security guards to handle that. So no chess. We pointed out that we were the school chess team, but they were unmoved on the topic.
It was really dumb.
We talked a bit about the possibility of having a couple of our better players play mental chess, that is, no board or pieces to look at, and just yell moves back and forth across the lunch room while the rest of us loudly gambled on the outcome, but we never actually did it.
As far as I can tell, this is a user who reviews games that use Denuvo, and always reviews them as Not Recommended, but will change that review to “Informational” and the review text to “Denuvo removed” when the game removes Denuvo. There may be other circumstances when they’ll change it, though, so if you’re thinking of actually buying one of these games, it seems wise to click on the game’s “Not Recommended” or “Informational” and then scroll down on the store page until it shows you the relevant review. It should be highlighted on the page, though you have to scroll a ways down to see it. There is also a box just after the controller support info that lists 3rd party DRM a game uses, which should be there if the games uses Denuvo.
