PureDark, who claimed to make more than $40,000 per month from locking DLSS3 mods behind their Patreon page,

Make that 50k, his current patreon page shows over 10k members. There's stuff for several games there, tho, like RDR2, Last of Us 2, Elden Ring, Fallout 4, etc.

Seems there's plenty of space for competitors to enter the "offer DLSS mods for games that don't have it"

If I was earning that much per month, I wouldn't worry about taking extra time to add DRM to my stuff. Despite the cracked version floating around, he got more subscribers since the first stories came around and he's at zero risk of suffering any significant loss. Pirate that shit with a clean conscience
