I had a similar experience. It’s a wonderfully produced product, and I’m sure there’s an audience for it. But, for me I couldn’t help but keep thinking “This would just be a lot easier if I played the video game.”
There’s even an incredibly polished co-op mod for the game if the excuse is wanting to play with friends. I’m just not sold on the whole concept of it, frankly.
until they are inevitably cracked (which has been done with many denuvo games already) and pirates enjoy better performance once again.
