from her telegram
Empress is my problematic fave.
Here’s hoping P5R is on the list!
When it was just released on PC, I saw on Reddit that it probably won’t happen. Apparently Empress does not like anime games and therefore refuses to crack them.
I, myself, have been secretly hoping for it as well though. Got the game on PS5 (ps4 version) and refuse to pay money again for the game (unless it gets a heavy-heavy sale for like 10 bucks or something).
Man it was on sale for $20 on green man gaming a few weeks ago during the “sizzling sale”. Whenever steam has sales check them out IsThereAnyDeal as that’s how I found it. Atb that price, I gave up waiting and caved. I was even able to convert my PS4 save (jailbroken) to PC without losing any progress.
I realize the group I’m in, but I wanted to let others know who are holding off potentially because of the price
she is “finishing her mmo first” we need more denuvo crackers.
Following Empress’ bullshit via Telegram screenshots is a fun experience. I like to think of it as the B-plot of digital piracy.
I dig their cracks but i don’t follow the drama. Care to offer a primer on the soap opera?
she pretended she got arrested by some guys on reddit who leaked her address
some serious people ON REDDIT managed to report me to authority with my real address, i am not quiet sure how it happened, but even with putting my philosophical side aside, i think i pissed off the entire internet just by trying to control “MY” own crack for 24 hour is actually something i am still not able to believe. in less than an hour, i will be dragged out of my home here with my lawyer, but considering i was caught red handed while preparing version 2 fix for my immortals crack, i don’t think there will be much of hope against it at all.
Her message to those who had insulted her was totally not at all bitter – she thought they were ‘all beautiful people’ who she definitely didn’t hate, because they had just made a mistake. This was all somewhat rich for a woman who was rapidly developing hints of megalomania and power-madness.
And then she made an Obi-wan-esque speech about ‘remembering me’ and ‘contuing on my path’.
Everyone was quick to point out the flaws here. The police generally don’t bust down your door, catching you ‘red-handed’ cracking Denuvo, then call you to tell you they’re going to arrest you in an hour, so you have time to write out a long and dramatic letter blaming others for your woes. —this write-up
empress good cracker emperess get big head empress thinks shes plato reincarnate she is not empress mad she isnt seen as brilliant as she feels empress gets banned from reddit empress drip feeds latest crack out of spite empress hates repackers for taking attention she deserves repackers turn their backs on her empress is """""""raided""""""" by police empress is miraculously freed the next dayalso went on a weird ass transphobic rant in one of her nfos
-day/night, etc
Once she pieces together that dusk and dawn are in there too she’ll figure out day should be mid-day and night should be mid-night. She’s right there to becoming history’s second timecuber. All she needs to do is take that step past duality, from two to four.
Literally everything she listed there except life/death has gradients. Like does she not realize that words like Day, Night, Hot, Cold, are all just terms humans applied to describe something? Has she not heard of cool, warm, dusk, dawn, twilight, noon, afternoon, evening, morning?
It’s genuinely a lot. EMPRESS has an ego, and has started shit with anyone they can. This ranges from other crackers, to repackers, to the people requesting cracks. They see themselves as the hot shit because “I’m the only one who can crack Denuvo”.
Go into the notes of almost any of their releases and you’ll find borderline schizophrenic screeds full of hate and bigotry. Racism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, thinking the Harry Potter series is good, all kinds of shit. Also, at least once she said she was going to jail because she was caught cracking something but kept putting out releases without any disruption. Here’s one from the time she was accused of being a trans woman (cw: all of the above)
they always have such a unique way of communicating over text
Damn, i had no idea she was this off her rocker.
She was also on lemmy.ml for a very short time.
bro got banned before people started to notice her lol.
thinking the Harry Potter series is good
One of these things is not like the other?
ahh i guess there will be more unhinged fetish-fueled slur filled screeds
God i am so entertained by this, haha!
Love it all except the r word. It’s not 1990 folks.
^
Isn’t she also talking about a trans woman using masculine pronouns?
She’s a massive transphobe despite (to my understanding) being trans herself
Okay hold up, I’m going to need a reference on her being trans herself. Because no, as far as I am aware, she is in fact just a transphobe.
Honestly I don’t keep up with her drama all that much but when I was more in the loop I definitely recall people referencing the ‘fact’ she is trans.
Literally no source now though because its been years, so feel free to disregard it as baseless.
Edit: Honestly, thinking about it now, that might have been some misogynists who just couldn’t accept that a cisgender woman could be talented enough at computer related stuff to crack denuvo. So I’m gonna erase “empress is trans” from my brain.
I’ve seen people accusing her of being a trans woman before, which obviously she has always responded to with transphobia and denial. I see no reason to believe her to be trans unless you have evidence
Yeah, I was in the process of editing my comments when you commented. Hope the edits are suitable, communism.
Are you thinking of fitgirl? She’s notoriously been a target for hate from Empress, who I think may have accused her of being trans at one point? Though like, as a trans girl myself, I can see her being trans just from this webpage: https://fitgirl-repacks.site/games-with-my-personal-pink-paw-award/
Edit: both because of the page itself, but also there’s a bunch of stuff with queer themes in that list. A couple of non-binary protags and a few sapphic romances.
No it was definitely empress being discussed at the time, but I could definitely see fitgirl being trans, as a fellow trans girl!
as long as she is cracking denuvo she can say all the slurs she wants as far as im concerned
Have some self respect.
Sad to hear that but not going to fight about it
She makes a handful of digital toys free. Slurs hurt real people. Keep this in context
If you have an issue with retard then you should also have an issue with moron and idiot.
I do have an issue with those terms actually but I think we both know you are being facetious trying to say those 2 are on the exact same level as the slur.
Nope. They all have the same origin and mean the same thing. The one reason retard isnt okay but idiot and moron are culturally is because of the age of the words.
And at least youre logically consistent then.
Bitch, shithead and fucking slut is fine but you take offence at retarded?
Well one of those is ableist while the other ones are just fun.
Sex shaming is fun?
She said slut referring to herself, and within the context of being a slut for something that isn’t inherently sexual.
Edit: Nope misread that. Either way there are a lot more contexts where one can use slut and not be shitty.
Either way there are a lot more contexts where one can use slut and not be shitty.
True, but I don’t think that’s the case here.
Is one of those a slur for marginalized, at-risk members of society with special needs?
I know, “bitch” and “slut” were originally sexist, but were taken back. These days men, women, LGBTQ+, and all races call each other both. There’s no “punching down”, unlike with the antiquated ‘R’ word…
There’s no “punching down”, unlike with the antiquated ‘R’ word…
Women can’t be “punched down” on? News to me…
Did you read any other words than that, or are you just trying to be argumentative with that strawman?
I clearly didn’t say that. But contrary to those, using ‘R’ or ‘N’ words is always punching down.
If I misunderstood your post, it wasn’t intentional. Would you mind elaborating?
“No no, you don’t understand, I HATE women”
Yeah cause bitch, shithead and fucking alut are choices people make, it reflects their behavior.
The other is a slur for disabled people who never chose that.
Make fun of people’s actions, not what they were born with. Simple stuff.
EMPRESS can impress, as the infinite drama-engine.
i’m not caught up on my piracy lore™
who is this person?This is the only real denuvo cracker, sadly. Others exist but they’re nowhere near her. The vast majority of denuvo cracks come from this crack. An absolutely unhinged ladybwho runs a sex cult of sorts via telegram. She hates trans people, gay people, anything vaugly progressive, and only supports woman’s rights as she believe them supirior. She’ll say all this in her NFO files in each crack.
A while back she stopped cracking in order to, as she states, make AI porn then later an MMO.
make AI porn
Huh?
Apparently insane transphobe with a god complex, I’m out of the loop too
Basically the one and only denuvo drm cracker
Wasn’t fitgirl aslo a cracker?
Fitgirl is a repacker. She doesn’t crack; she’s just a compression nerd.
Well that’s not unhinged at all…
Man,I understand why only like 2 complete lunatics are still willing to crack denuvo
But why must it be so
MMO? Does it happen to be dragon based?
I hope it would be science-based if so. Following how dragons would actually evolve.
Yes! I want the most scientifically accurate dragons.
Op… She said she will return AFTER her MMO is ready and is going well.
That won’t happen. There’s no way it doesn’t get stuck in development hell. She’s never coming back.And all of her simps will fall over eachother at her feet over this.
Why hasn’t anyone yet done the ballsy move by just learning her tricks and distributing that to everyone to learn? Why does it have to be this unhinged bitch?
Cracking Denuvo is hard as fuck!
No matter how unhinged she is, she’s very talented.I like to believe that if anyone else succeeds in cracking Denuvo, they will become as insane as empress in the process
It doesn’t help that almost everyone good enough to crack it gets paid really well to improve it.
Empress being a notable exception cos she’s insane
From what I gathered, she’s pretty much a genius at cracking
Cracking Denuvo isn’t particularly hard as much as it is extremely tedious. Checks are baked everywhere in the game code, so there are (at least) thousands of little edits you have to make, and if only one of them was implemented wrong or hasn’t been located (this is gamecode, tied to in-game events), no more game. (This is a flawed explanation, but you get the deal)
It’s enough to drive most crackers insane… hence EMPRESS.
I only took 1 Reverse Engineering class in my CompSci program, so I could be wrong… but I am pretty sure it is both extremely tedious and also extremely difficult to crack Denuvo
You answer the question yourself
It is pretty entertaining though, isn’t it? Like, this is the closest we will ever get to the movie Hackers, but in real life.
So basically this is:
“mess with the best. Die like the [insert random offensive slur here]”
I think you may need to add some more slur placeholders in there, but yes.
I legit don’t even know what’s even worth playing/cracking these days. It feels like a gaming drought rn
Basically nothing AAA as far as I’m aware. Only major AAA releases I’ve had any interest in are the Sega relaunches (JSR, Crazy Taxi, etc), but some of the rumors I’ve heard aren’t good so I dunno how much hope I should put into it. Everything else is either indie or old console games.
I’ve switched to indie games or older releases in my backlog
I have switched to movies. Sold gpu and built a home theatre.
I just can’t be fucked to sit on my butt and press the keys anymore. Not after being in the game in VR which is in hiatus. Flat games are just seriously the worst from both storytelling worlds.I have trouble sitting down and forcing myself to watch a whole movie or TV show. Just like games, no movies really interest me. I’ve tried to get into anime but a lot of them have weird cringy tropes I can’t get past.
100% there are a lot of indie games worth trying
Sadly most of them are in early access and never get finished but they’re still fun
Shoutout to Slay the Princess. It was honestly one of the best games I have played in years and it was created by a husband / wife duo so it is as indie as it comes.
