Oddbean new post about login | logout Yes, something called Lenslok, an absolute dog shit system, lol. You had a plastic gizmo you had to look through, then line up with lines on your screen, then you got a code you typed in.
@Titanbreaker-kun @c886ef6d @Jens_Rasmussen @fa4709f8 @I am just normal /k/orean So I wouldn't have been able to play it anyway
I think it would be harder to find a version of the game that still has the copy protection, than finding a version without. If you found an OG version of the game now with the Lenslok, you would need an old CRT TV to make it work, due to how the lines were displayed. On top of that, the plastic it was made of was so poor I wonder if surviving units can even be used today.
plastic DRM lmao
lol yes! This fucking piece of shit https://i.poastcdn.org/37598c06b0a256ed25f8cb774b2f5198198e13fb1b088971f66e2478a0ac6df9.jpg https://i.poastcdn.org/154553c5afb6aed70888555bd697847f6a3e94dd4ba391c4434f0e17e75377ab.jpg
Ah yes. Nowadays people are smart enough to encrypt the files just to have a txt file in the zip folder with the key.
Now that's a big fail, if I ever saw one, lol. I vaguely remembered that a few times, a game would ship with the wrong Lenslok, so you could not play it.
Doom Eternal was accidentally posted on Bethesda's own launcher without the Denuvo DRM in a subfolder so it didn't even need to be cracked day 1.
I think I remember reading about that 🤣 RIP to the anon that lost his job that day lol
damn denuvo 1.0 was tough
