Isn't there another person who knows how, but just restricts themselves to very specific games? I wonder if there's any way to convince them to help replace the too-far-gone Empress. I understand they probably also don't want to just make the cracking info public, as it would presumably just accelerate the cat-and-mouse game, but perhaps they could be convinced to help bring a new person up to speed? I wonder if they could be convinced by donations to mentor an Empress replacement?

From what I've read (take this with a grain of salt), the person you're talking about cracks games with a much older version of denuvo. They're apparently a lot easier to crack than those being done by this psycho.

Ah interesting. That is unfortunate.
