I'm an adult, so I understand that being good for sales is good for a primarily sales driven industry. That is, assuming I don't want PC to become a 3rd class citizen that consistently gets releases a year later because of utterly tepid publisher interest... which is where PCs were headed pre-Denuvo. Denuvo isn't perfect, but it's been a very good model especially compared to its predecessors. The DRM itself doesn't use ring 0 (their anti-cheat addon does but again, cheating is a bad enough PC problem to justify it) and it's been removed after being cracked in the past. Overall I'll take PC Gaming with DRM over the alternative.
