what GPU do you have? have you installed your drivers for your os properly?

That’s Denuvo blocking you
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
RTX 4090, and yes plenty of other games work just fine
do you know how to get around this?

the dev has to probably do that work.. usually working around anticheat or anti tamper stuff isnt supported here.. often working around anti cheat means you run the risk of getting banned
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
I don't think it has anticheat, it's a singleplayer/3 player coop game. I also saw a few people on reddit say they got it working

the anti piracy stuff denuvo does .. we also dont support working around that..

Unfortunate, the game was purchased legitimately through epic. i guess it's time to dust off the windows install

The best you can do is not swap Wine runners too much. It clears in 24 hours
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
Yup, this is it, I can't open it on windows either. Every wine runner counts as a "new device." Now I know to never buy another denuvo game again
