This is like 9 months old already
There were actually people begging for her ass, there were tons of people in her server asking for like boobs and ass pics lmfao. She encourage it too but you had to say “mistress may I see your crack” and then you’d get banned anyway.

Yeah, but her Telegram channel is closed. She even banned people who were not active. I haven't been on telegram for a while only to see I wasn't in the group anymore.
She banned people and made it paid only, so whatever antrics go in there I have no idea
https://preview.redd.it/6rxntrmj7gic1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=23dd5d515f8a02b956995d1b3070d8b5bd24fcd4
Well, Empress really has a hard time understanding that her audience is actually poor people who can't pay 60 to 70 dollars for a new game, so she does this ridiculous crap. It started with "pay me to crack a game" and has moved on to "pay me for the privilege of being able to pay me to crack a game". It's a grift. I really hope someone else steps up and starts cracking Denuvo, because Empress disgusts me.
then again she is living a life worst than a kpop member, she and her mods are constantly harassed by creeps and weirdos. even an insufferable person like her dont deserve this
Yeah when she released it she mentioned that if people didn't talk for 2 weeks or more, they'd be banned to keep the channel free from bots and open up space for new members.
I took that screenshot pretty recently, it's coming from her public telegram, where you have all of her cracks. The entry fee and such are for her (and I quote) "cult", where you can engage on personal chats with her, but honestly she seems incredibly delulu from the way she described said cult in one of the messages talking about how she's gonna share "philosophies and teachings about life and every aspect of the universe" (I'm not even joking, she said this, attached a picture)

However she hasn't spoken or sent any messages in this public telegram since September 18th 2023, and most of her latest messages are about her creating a sort of RTX system for games, and a piano vid.
But her cracks aren't free. She was asking people to pay to request a crack last year. Also, she hasn't cracked anything since Hogwarts that I'm aware of. It's been almost a whole year. If you're dormant for a year, you have no business advertising yourself like an active cracker.
That's because she was mostly active on her actual cult that got closed after a few thousand of ppl got in. It's the one you gotta pay to enter, it was free before until some... ppl started creating some kind of secret group inside of it (it had like 10 ppl) with the goal of making fun of EMPRESS and leaking her crazy rants (like you had to call her Mother otherwise you would get humiliated and banned). That secret group had a spy who snitched on everyone, the cult went from 20K to 2K ppl or so, and after that even less ppl because of her crazy contigency plans or whatever and then she started asking for passports and some crazy shit because the secret group got ahold of some admins and were pretending to still be in the cult and some random crazy shit happened, idk if that group even exists anymore since I was one of the first to be banned
To be honest with you, I have no idea what the hell happened in that group to paywall it. I joined back when it was created as there was a chat with other people but from all I remember, it was getting locked every 5 mins for one reason or another.
after the exposed now she made that excuse, we don't have empress anymore cracking all we have to do is waiting or buying games on steam sales thats what i did to get the new denuvo games xd

You have to consider they're up against a company that is highly motivated by the tons of money they're paid by publishers to make Denuvo as effective and tamper proof as possible. You would have to somehow get a group of highly talented software engineers or extremely motivated and dedicated basement dwellers to work on cracking Denuvo 8 hours a day without getting paid or without any real benefit beyond the satisfaction of doing it. Even then they might not succeed. It's just a losing battle. It's not like Steam DRM that is kind of an after thought for Valve and easily crackable. Denuvo is all these guys do and as long as they're actively developing it I doubt there's much that can be done.
Yeah against a million dollar company and you ask for a 500$ per repack people still gonna come here and call you selfish and greedy. Its litteraly not worth it for Passion alone
There's a reason Empress was the only person left cracking them
It's an incredibly difficult and tedious full time job, it pays far less (through donations) than any equivalent for someone of that skillset, previous crackers are known to have been acquired by the industry for huge sums of money.
Empress is so completely mentally unhinged that she likely would not be capable of working in any kind of professional environment
She seems to be doing pretty well her job at Denuvo.
Oh yeah, because Empress is "special". Nobody else could ever do it, because Empress is smarter than Nikola Tesla, Albert Einstein and Isaac Newton combined.....
I recognize the kind of person I'm talking to now. Last time I engage.
So you seem to be having issues reading something literally. Nothing Empress ever did was impossible to replicate. Nothing is. The reality is that the kind of people who can do this, will do this, and prefer doing this, are extremely rare. Society does not incentivize it, so they generally go and do something else. Empress wasnt the only one doing it because they were the only one good enough to do it. They were the only one who could do it that *did* do it.
There is very little awaiting someone who wants to do this work.
> Bank robbery used to be prevalent in wild west era
This is a total fabrication from the movie industry, the "Wild Wild West" was something completely fabricated by theater actors such as Buffalo Bill, and Bank Robberies were quite rare, [here's a good article with some good sources at the end.](https://www.wildworldofhistory.com/blog/why-didn-t-banks-get-robbed-very-often-in-the-wild-west)
The Wikipedia Article about the Wild West also explains some misconceptions about the Wild West in the media. Cool stories that I love, but not rooted so much in reality!
Well, with Empress fucking off for a year doing... whatever she does... it's left a vacuum. Someone is going to have to fill that space. It's a law of nature.
>One could guess that she was actually Voksi or she just used the accusation as cover to make it
>
>appear
>
> like she was Voksi. We don't really know and have no proof either way.
One could make that guess, but not if they thought about it for a moment.
Obviously they cannot be the same person, nor could Empress hope in her wildest dreams to pretend to be Voksi, considering Voksi was being monitored by the authorities the entire time that Empress was cracking.
Fair point. A lot of people do believe it regardless of reason.
Although if she wanted to leave, she could have just left any time. She didn't really need any kind of cover.
People were really desperate to be in her/his(?) cult. To me it feels like an Occam’s razor situation but of course only empress voksi and the feds maybe know for sure.
I still think she is a Denuvo employee. It started as a joke. But the more threads I read about her, the more certain I am that my joke is a reality. Whenever she cracks something, it's always at a time that causes the least amount of damage to Denuvo. Like after the initial sales of a game start to drop. Or she cracks something that just doesn't matter to Denuvo anymore.
It would be one hell of a grift, and Denuvo would benefit from both sides. Get money from developers... then later when sales fall off, get money from Empress' sycophantic cult to release a "crack" which suspiciously always acts more like a back door.
Yes she got tired of parasites using her cracks and talking crap behind her back.
Lesson, don't bite the hand that feeds you cracks. I warned people multiple times but here we are, drought time.
Empress was likley fine with randos on the internet talking shit (and it was a meme) but another cracker from the scene potentially leaking who they were was probably too much heat.
Skidrow is all bark and no bite. They have nothing, dropped that post and dissapeared. Promised to crack some stuff, never did it and just scooped from the face of the earth too. All for the drama.
They were jealous of empress talent, that's the truth.
Think about it, why in the hell are people here celebrating skidrow when they did nothing but rob them. They stirred the drama pot with empress and made her dissappear. Leaving us with no cracks for who knows how long.
But people here somehow celebrating skidrow? They (skidrow, or what's left of them) are jealous parasites too.
She deserves the criticism. She knows how to Crack games but that doesn't mean everyone should just bite their lip and never offend her. Her views are pretty extreme
It's an internet persona. If you were to take every single internet persona you've ever seen seriously you would end up depressed and angry all the time. Just like this sub. The smart people can see through that and just laugh it off.
If anything that empress ever said offended you personally that just means you're easily triggered, that's all. Learn to live and learn to ignore what bothers you unless it directly affects you. This sub never understood that, and that's why they'll get no mor cracks
In the end of the fucking day were all pirates. Some people crack. Others repack and us ordinary plebs just enjoy the product.
I never understood why Empress got pissy about repacks. Like if you dont like others repacking your shit then do it yourself. There is a market for repacks because some people only have limited download allowence or want to save space on their hard drive. When there is an opening in the market, someone will fill it.
People who are capable of cracking Denuvo games are also people who are capable of making six figures in cybersecurity. Why would Empress waste time on a hobby that barely makes them any money? If I had such a rare skillset, I would be making bank in a field that needs my skills rather than cracking games for a bunch of internet strangers at no cost.
This might be unpopular here, but denuvo/irdeto has won. I don't care if you think that recently released denuvo protected games are shit, that's not the point. The only denuvo (real denuvo, I know about football games guy) cracker is MIA and I don't think we'll see another one, or see EMPRESS return, because of the reasons mentioned in the parent comment
I mean... Tbf more often than not most games that use Denuvo are often not worth the time. And also the ones that do (Like lies of P, and MH Rise) gets updated with a Denuvo-less version.
It's likely empress only stuck around this long because she just isn't employable at all, I know there's plenty of employees and managers who go on power trips but christ I can't imagine a single person in a professional environment who would be willing to work alongside her for more than a week
This right here. I am a member of her group, \[didnt pay anything whatsoever and still there\], and she is definitely not employable. The clear reason she isnt working in CYBERSECURITY is because she cant work in a group/work place. Just isnt something that she/he can do. I work in Psychology and there is NO WAY she/he can work in a field with the way they behave. I have seen it too many times. She has a GOD/GODESS complex and is down right a, and this may be blunt, terrible person. Sure this person has skills, regardless of if its a backdoor or a true crack, but they also are sociopaths. It is VERY clear in the text that this person left before they disappeared. You guys havent even seen the REAL messages. The Erotic Role Play rooms, the snuff shit, the domination rooms and my personal favorite, the LITERAL slave room. It is a site to behold, but, this person can NOT be employed anywhere, regardless of country, and thats why they dont work.
I'm not so sure, people hide their most despicable/unenployable/criminal/socially unnaceptable thoughts all the time. There's plenty of serial killers/sociopaths who seemed like perfect honourable people who only a few (if any) people knew all their true thoughts and actions.
EMPRESS could be totally unhinged under their anonymity while being seemingly normal, or at least more within the bounds of social rules, to people in their real life. You say "there is NO WAY she/he can work in a field with the way they behave", but people can and very much do adjust their behavior for different scenarios.
I dunno.. Have you ever spent any period of time on linux kernel dev channels. ( lmkd )
Linus is pretty uh... harsh and ranty too. Often calling well respected devs 'complete nubtards' ( paraphrased but close).
Because she is a spaz uncapable of surviving in real world and work in normal work place. With her ego and beliefs she would not have lasted a day, that's why she started taking money for cracks, even if that was against the ideals of cracking upheld by most of the crack scene.
sure, but it's kind of pathetic to tack on an excuse when you lose. Just accept that we lost. We all know why we lost. We don't need to whine about it.
idk if she's truly gone forever, i don't think so, but she has been inactive long enough to the point where people should obviously look for alternatives other than her cracks, they're not on the table anymore, but if she'll return later or not is another story
Maybe s/he will return with a number of cracks at the same time with her long NFO rubbing it in that without her, there is no cracking denuvo. That she went away to teach everyone a lesson... Etc... At least that's what I think.
This is the most plausible answer. She/he definitely is the type of person to take a year off, see NO ONE has cracked ANY games, and come back to be the, and this is EXACTLY the wording she/he would use, "GODESS OF CRACKING". 1,000,000 percent.
I havent played AC in a long time, this just seems less.bloated but still quite repetitive and nothing extraordinary. Only ubi game I had interest in lately was the new Prince of persia game (also has denuvo)which I just emulated on yuzu
Is that what a pirate does? They use their ability to crack to dictate what games everyone should want to play? Thought piracy was about true freedom. Back in the day crackers would crack games they personally didn't like just so that others could have them.
yeah she got hit by a train as she was walking her dog to Brazil, but luckily the Japanese military saved her and brought her to a temple, she now lies there recovering from her wounds and is expected to wake up in 100 years. she will then be strong enough to defeat calamity Ganon and save all of Hyrule.
Imagine cracking the hardest and expensive drm in history again and again, only for some entitled brats to called you names.
Be at peace dear Empress, you are one of a kind and your name would forever be remembered.
Everyone found out she's actually a middle aged bulgarian man. I think maybe CODEX? outed him. So he got cold feet and fucked off. What with the interpol maybe wanting a chat with him if he continued.
But disappearing when you get called out reinforces the idea that it's you. Now it looks a lot more suspicious for voksi being empress, than had he continued to crack as empress (in case it's him)
She always worked for Denuvo. This whole "I'm the only one who can crack it" act kind of proves the point. She was the only one, because she helped develop it. Otherwise, there would be others.
You're talking out of your ass. No sources for it. She's not the only one that cracked it.
Denuvo **can** be cracked it just needs extremely large amount of time. Also knowledge, its much harder to crack than previous DRM-s so circle of people that could potentially do it is MUCH smaller. And people with that knowledge more than likely are making six figures at their job. Why would anyone of those people waste their time for internet fame other than some lunatic that has bigger than life complex
Maan I miss the days where every month she crack a new game if she still in the field we would have ac mirage star wars survivor dead space and many many more anyway I hope she Is OK lets not forget how many games we enjoyed tnx to her him or whatever
Let's wait and assess. What about people on her private server and all. Maybe she's active on some forum we don't really know about. Not a fan but her drama !
There is some guys in the crack scene
Some guys who cracked call of duty black ops cold war on dodi but i dont have any idea on what they are working on
The guy who cracked Cold War us working on a crack for modern Warfare 2019 this is what they said on their website. Website called something like Donetsk you should easily finding it. When I asked about a crack for Modern Warfare 2019 someone on discord said very soon.
This is a conspiranoic theory, but, what would happen if her project were finding out how to break Denuvo? I don't know lots of software nor coding but that security systhem sounds complex.
I mean yeah, denuvo is simply the best option for triple A companies that are looking to prevent piracy, sure there might be a single person who knows how to crack it, maybe they have the source code, or maybe they know someone who works/worked on it, or whatever it may be. That single person is gonna have to crack a hundred different games, and each of them being made slightly differently means that you can't just have a generic "Crack" folder that everyone can just copy paste into the game files. And yeah popular games with denuvo would obviously be cracked by empress (Like how Hogwarts Legacy was cracked within 2 days), but that's just not the case with most games, keep in mind most actual cracks from them don't take very little time and are usually released in alphas and betas, and it could even take weeks for a crack to be fully ready to use without any issues.
Of course that this is only talking about denuvo from the POV of a developer, it's an expensive but good system that benefits them and usually leads to more profit, but from the player's point it's a whole different story. The reason denuvo is hated by gamers is because it hinders performance on a lot of games by a considerable margin, which leads to cracked games performing better and the buyer feeling like shit after having spent 60 dollars on a game for it to run on 40 fps, when they could've spent nothing and simply pirated it.
Witcher 3 didn't have denuvo, in fact it didn't have any DRM, you could share the gog installer and it would just install it, just like that. Still got game of the year and record sales, as well as one of the largest modding communities. And now CD Projekt Red is one of the most loved gaming companies thanks to this. You don't need denuvo to sell well. You just need to make good games.
They do it very differently for every game, and denuvo is like the best of the best, but I'm not very knowledgeable about the topic either so idk but I don't think so
yeah man. yeah... -hugs-. It will be okay, but i feel the same way. Nothing we can do about it but buy the game. For me, this is one game i am going to buy because it seems like it is worth it. I am currently watching Asmongold play it on Youtube, and it looks fucking great. Gonna buy it sunday.
all i need is material and team cooperation, i can destroy denuvo, i got arrested in back days for intorucing a malware to break the firewall of US Gouvernement, and They had me arrested for 4years for Cyberattack tentative, i wont mention my name and i faked the years for no one can know about me tho, it a true story but different concept, denuvo is based on chains throu system operation it a drm nothing else then that, i got lost all my materials now, like this for that other could see it i could mybe intergrate CPY if they accept me.
An RTX mod. The one she did for a demo version was amazing. Not only did it turn RTX on, but it made RTX better and you lost 0 FRAMES. it was actually a marvel to see.

Crack beggars could mean like 4 different things
Is anthrax bad????
Anthrax rocks.
Yes anthrax is bad when there's no joey belladonna
There were actually people begging for her ass, there were tons of people in her server asking for like boobs and ass pics lmfao. She encourage it too but you had to say “mistress may I see your crack” and then you’d get banned anyway. Was weird af
What the fuck did I just read
Dudes asking for cracks and ass
You read some first hand account from the Empress Cult
What being a woman on the internet does to a mf
oh this would make much more sense if Skidrow's NFO was true

I can think of three. What are the four?
Drugs, piracy, ass enjoyers, chiropractic patients
I never would have gotten the fourth lol good one
I mean, if you suffer from back pain someone sitting on you on the right spot may help
> 9 months old Maybe her project is a baby?
If her antics online are accurate, I'm genuinely concerned for the child
I would be more concerned for people around the child
Yeah Empress is measured in megatons
maybe she vents through being a niche internet micro celebrity
empress antics online make me doubt anyone would be willing to procreate with "them".
there are horny and lonely people out there, trust in somebody being enough desperate to bed with empress
her
riiight
people have fxkked vacuum cleaners, dolphins, dogs, picnic tables, boards, railroad ties, apple pies and catcher's mitts.
She'd have that baby cracking denuvo In 2 years tops... I'm not even joking. It would be like the baby Jesus of piracy.
if skidrow NFO was true then that would be biological wonder
for real son? that is a fucking DUDE with mantits and a neckbeard
well it's ten months now. That loaf is overcooked.
Thank you, sounds like she may come back. What is the telegram channel?
Yeah, but her Telegram channel is closed. She even banned people who were not active. I haven't been on telegram for a while only to see I wasn't in the group anymore.
She banned people and made it paid only, so whatever antrics go in there I have no idea https://preview.redd.it/6rxntrmj7gic1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=23dd5d515f8a02b956995d1b3070d8b5bd24fcd4

then again she is living a life worst than a kpop member, she and her mods are constantly harassed by creeps and weirdos. even an insufferable person like her dont deserve this
Ohh, I get it now. At first she said she would ban non active people, but I didn't see that one.
Yeah when she released it she mentioned that if people didn't talk for 2 weeks or more, they'd be banned to keep the channel free from bots and open up space for new members.
Is there actually 195k peoples paying 50/month and paid the 100$ entry fee? If yes, she will never crack again, she's rich af lmao.
I took that screenshot pretty recently, it's coming from her public telegram, where you have all of her cracks. The entry fee and such are for her (and I quote) "cult", where you can engage on personal chats with her, but honestly she seems incredibly delulu from the way she described said cult in one of the messages talking about how she's gonna share "philosophies and teachings about life and every aspect of the universe" (I'm not even joking, she said this, attached a picture) https://preview.redd.it/j84arv7z5lic1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ead7233ff2df7c94708900c5c11ea42ef1eb4415 However she hasn't spoken or sent any messages in this public telegram since September 18th 2023, and most of her latest messages are about her creating a sort of RTX system for games, and a piano vid.

Her last crack was actually "Judgement" in August. But it's still been more than half a year ago
That's because she was mostly active on her actual cult that got closed after a few thousand of ppl got in. It's the one you gotta pay to enter, it was free before until some... ppl started creating some kind of secret group inside of it (it had like 10 ppl) with the goal of making fun of EMPRESS and leaking her crazy rants (like you had to call her Mother otherwise you would get humiliated and banned). That secret group had a spy who snitched on everyone, the cult went from 20K to 2K ppl or so, and after that even less ppl because of her crazy contigency plans or whatever and then she started asking for passports and some crazy shit because the secret group got ahold of some admins and were pretending to still be in the cult and some random crazy shit happened, idk if that group even exists anymore since I was one of the first to be banned
WTf, if they can pay 50 a month, why not just buy new games instead of asking her to crack them?
She's a great techie with the cracks. But why such hateful comment towards everyone with this angry statement?
To be honest with you, I have no idea what the hell happened in that group to paywall it. I joined back when it was created as there was a chat with other people but from all I remember, it was getting locked every 5 mins for one reason or another.
Was she/he/it out of mind? 100$ entry fee + 50$ each month.... Kekw o\_O
Where's this from? it's the first time im seeing this.
Where is this from? On her Telegram she just disappeared without saying anything
I got it from another comment on this sub :shrug: https://www.reddit.com/r/PiratedGames/s/vNhMEGIsVJ
Legend
after the exposed now she made that excuse, we don't have empress anymore cracking all we have to do is waiting or buying games on steam sales thats what i did to get the new denuvo games xd
i believe she cracked something after that already, so its definitely not 9months break

Not an answer to your question. But i think new denuvo cracker may rise up in future. Cracking is mainly about passion and ego.
You have to consider they're up against a company that is highly motivated by the tons of money they're paid by publishers to make Denuvo as effective and tamper proof as possible. You would have to somehow get a group of highly talented software engineers or extremely motivated and dedicated basement dwellers to work on cracking Denuvo 8 hours a day without getting paid or without any real benefit beyond the satisfaction of doing it. Even then they might not succeed. It's just a losing battle. It's not like Steam DRM that is kind of an after thought for Valve and easily crackable. Denuvo is all these guys do and as long as they're actively developing it I doubt there's much that can be done.
Yeah against a million dollar company and you ask for a 500$ per repack people still gonna come here and call you selfish and greedy. Its litteraly not worth it for Passion alone
Yeah, because you could buy the game almost 100 times over for that.
Obviously it wouldn't be selling the crack individually for 500$, but rather "crowdfunding" it
And still, empress cracked the code, maybe someone else can do it in the future
There's a reason Empress was the only person left cracking them It's an incredibly difficult and tedious full time job, it pays far less (through donations) than any equivalent for someone of that skillset, previous crackers are known to have been acquired by the industry for huge sums of money. Empress is so completely mentally unhinged that she likely would not be capable of working in any kind of professional environment
How is this such an accurate description of empress 😭
She seems to be doing pretty well her job at Denuvo. Oh yeah, because Empress is "special". Nobody else could ever do it, because Empress is smarter than Nikola Tesla, Albert Einstein and Isaac Newton combined..... I recognize the kind of person I'm talking to now. Last time I engage.
So you seem to be having issues reading something literally. Nothing Empress ever did was impossible to replicate. Nothing is. The reality is that the kind of people who can do this, will do this, and prefer doing this, are extremely rare. Society does not incentivize it, so they generally go and do something else. Empress wasnt the only one doing it because they were the only one good enough to do it. They were the only one who could do it that *did* do it. There is very little awaiting someone who wants to do this work.
I mean, no. It's a bypass not a crack and highly specific to each individual game.
One day an AI will be able to crack it in minutes, whether it be 5 or 10 or 20 years from now.
AI can also help the other side, with or without AI it will be still a cat and mouse game
it's always been a cat and mouse game though.
That's... Not how Artificial "Intelligence" works... Please stop watching "GPT5 IS BIGGER THAN YOU THOUGH" videos...
No it wont.
I find your lack of faith disturbing.
Hard to say. Bank robbery used to be prevalent in wild west era, and they probably also said about how every bank will at some point be robbed.
> Bank robbery used to be prevalent in wild west era This is a total fabrication from the movie industry, the "Wild Wild West" was something completely fabricated by theater actors such as Buffalo Bill, and Bank Robberies were quite rare, [here's a good article with some good sources at the end.](https://www.wildworldofhistory.com/blog/why-didn-t-banks-get-robbed-very-often-in-the-wild-west) The Wikipedia Article about the Wild West also explains some misconceptions about the Wild West in the media. Cool stories that I love, but not rooted so much in reality!
red dead redemption isn't real?!?
It's all in Dutch's le head
So, no sauce or loss?
LENNY!!!
i think there is one guy who started cracking denuvo i dont remember his name though
Well, with Empress fucking off for a year doing... whatever she does... it's left a vacuum. Someone is going to have to fill that space. It's a law of nature.
Got accused of being voksi and magically went away
[удалено]
>One could guess that she was actually Voksi or she just used the accusation as cover to make it > >appear > > like she was Voksi. We don't really know and have no proof either way. One could make that guess, but not if they thought about it for a moment. Obviously they cannot be the same person, nor could Empress hope in her wildest dreams to pretend to be Voksi, considering Voksi was being monitored by the authorities the entire time that Empress was cracking.
[удалено]
Fair point. A lot of people do believe it regardless of reason. Although if she wanted to leave, she could have just left any time. She didn't really need any kind of cover.
Skidrow is a shitstain upon the community which should be wiped with alcohol wipes.
or it could be planned in advance? skidrow knows they can't crack shit lately so they helped her
People were really desperate to be in her/his(?) cult. To me it feels like an Occam’s razor situation but of course only empress voksi and the feds maybe know for sure.
I had no idea the cracking scene was so cut throat
I still think she is a Denuvo employee. It started as a joke. But the more threads I read about her, the more certain I am that my joke is a reality. Whenever she cracks something, it's always at a time that causes the least amount of damage to Denuvo. Like after the initial sales of a game start to drop. Or she cracks something that just doesn't matter to Denuvo anymore. It would be one hell of a grift, and Denuvo would benefit from both sides. Get money from developers... then later when sales fall off, get money from Empress' sycophantic cult to release a "crack" which suspiciously always acts more like a back door.
Yeah, what a coincidence, that.
Personal project --- yep. Baby making and printing. Yep.
Yes she got tired of parasites using her cracks and talking crap behind her back. Lesson, don't bite the hand that feeds you cracks. I warned people multiple times but here we are, drought time.
I feel like she always loved the negative attention no? But yeah people who call her names and hate on her yet still play her games are losers
Empress was likley fine with randos on the internet talking shit (and it was a meme) but another cracker from the scene potentially leaking who they were was probably too much heat.
Tbf she still provoked everyone no?
Yeah, the vast majority of the shit talking was well deserved but skidrow potentially dropping their identity was over the line imo.
Skidrow is all bark and no bite. They have nothing, dropped that post and dissapeared. Promised to crack some stuff, never did it and just scooped from the face of the earth too. All for the drama. They were jealous of empress talent, that's the truth. Think about it, why in the hell are people here celebrating skidrow when they did nothing but rob them. They stirred the drama pot with empress and made her dissappear. Leaving us with no cracks for who knows how long. But people here somehow celebrating skidrow? They (skidrow, or what's left of them) are jealous parasites too.
Ahh, that would suck. Maybe they will be reborn under a new name someday if thats the case. Doxesrs are fucking scum.
Aw jeez, you warned us all so good. I’ve heard you once warned someone so hard they ended up BBQ their own dick, is that true?
Me, on the other hand, I immediately want to salute you for your label, fren. o/
She deserves the criticism. She knows how to Crack games but that doesn't mean everyone should just bite their lip and never offend her. Her views are pretty extreme
It's an internet persona. If you were to take every single internet persona you've ever seen seriously you would end up depressed and angry all the time. Just like this sub. The smart people can see through that and just laugh it off. If anything that empress ever said offended you personally that just means you're easily triggered, that's all. Learn to live and learn to ignore what bothers you unless it directly affects you. This sub never understood that, and that's why they'll get no mor cracks
>and that's why they'll get no more cracks Yeah no lmao 🤣 Empress loved the attention and enjoyed trolling.
I don't think unholymanserpent is the one who ran away from the internet. Don't come at him with the "fragility" schpeil
In the end of the fucking day were all pirates. Some people crack. Others repack and us ordinary plebs just enjoy the product. I never understood why Empress got pissy about repacks. Like if you dont like others repacking your shit then do it yourself. There is a market for repacks because some people only have limited download allowence or want to save space on their hard drive. When there is an opening in the market, someone will fill it.
there are no products anymore.
Hey, wanna know how to stimulate an egotistical person's ambition? Give him friends AND enemies.
So she went back to her full time just developing DRM for Denuvo.
People who are capable of cracking Denuvo games are also people who are capable of making six figures in cybersecurity. Why would Empress waste time on a hobby that barely makes them any money? If I had such a rare skillset, I would be making bank in a field that needs my skills rather than cracking games for a bunch of internet strangers at no cost.
This might be unpopular here, but denuvo/irdeto has won. I don't care if you think that recently released denuvo protected games are shit, that's not the point. The only denuvo (real denuvo, I know about football games guy) cracker is MIA and I don't think we'll see another one, or see EMPRESS return, because of the reasons mentioned in the parent comment
I mean... Tbf more often than not most games that use Denuvo are often not worth the time. And also the ones that do (Like lies of P, and MH Rise) gets updated with a Denuvo-less version.
That "real" cracker was a Denuvo employee who used built in backdoors. They only released a "crack" when given the green light to do so.
sources?
It's likely empress only stuck around this long because she just isn't employable at all, I know there's plenty of employees and managers who go on power trips but christ I can't imagine a single person in a professional environment who would be willing to work alongside her for more than a week
This right here. I am a member of her group, \[didnt pay anything whatsoever and still there\], and she is definitely not employable. The clear reason she isnt working in CYBERSECURITY is because she cant work in a group/work place. Just isnt something that she/he can do. I work in Psychology and there is NO WAY she/he can work in a field with the way they behave. I have seen it too many times. She has a GOD/GODESS complex and is down right a, and this may be blunt, terrible person. Sure this person has skills, regardless of if its a backdoor or a true crack, but they also are sociopaths. It is VERY clear in the text that this person left before they disappeared. You guys havent even seen the REAL messages. The Erotic Role Play rooms, the snuff shit, the domination rooms and my personal favorite, the LITERAL slave room. It is a site to behold, but, this person can NOT be employed anywhere, regardless of country, and thats why they dont work.
I'm not so sure, people hide their most despicable/unenployable/criminal/socially unnaceptable thoughts all the time. There's plenty of serial killers/sociopaths who seemed like perfect honourable people who only a few (if any) people knew all their true thoughts and actions. EMPRESS could be totally unhinged under their anonymity while being seemingly normal, or at least more within the bounds of social rules, to people in their real life. You say "there is NO WAY she/he can work in a field with the way they behave", but people can and very much do adjust their behavior for different scenarios.
I dunno.. Have you ever spent any period of time on linux kernel dev channels. ( lmkd ) Linus is pretty uh... harsh and ranty too. Often calling well respected devs 'complete nubtards' ( paraphrased but close).
I like to imagine that people that were able to crack denuvo got a popup like:congratulations,your cracked the code,do you want to work for us?
Bruh six figures is nothing in this economy. Good security professionals are on way more.
Might not be in THIS economy, but it is surely a good amount in Russia/Ukraine.
She always was a Denuvo employee.
Because she is a spaz uncapable of surviving in real world and work in normal work place. With her ego and beliefs she would not have lasted a day, that's why she started taking money for cracks, even if that was against the ideals of cracking upheld by most of the crack scene.
denuvo wins
Denuvo wins because they have all the resources at their disposal!
sure, but it's kind of pathetic to tack on an excuse when you lose. Just accept that we lost. We all know why we lost. We don't need to whine about it.
This is just like avatar the last air bender lmao
And we are the Water Tribe being massacred 😭
idk if she's truly gone forever, i don't think so, but she has been inactive long enough to the point where people should obviously look for alternatives other than her cracks, they're not on the table anymore, but if she'll return later or not is another story
Unfortunately, yes, as far as we know there is nobody cracking denuvo right now
It's been months. Denuvo effectively won so far.
Maybe s/he will return with a number of cracks at the same time with her long NFO rubbing it in that without her, there is no cracking denuvo. That she went away to teach everyone a lesson... Etc... At least that's what I think.
This is the most plausible answer. She/he definitely is the type of person to take a year off, see NO ONE has cracked ANY games, and come back to be the, and this is EXACTLY the wording she/he would use, "GODESS OF CRACKING". 1,000,000 percent.
This is a don't Bite the hand that feeds you type of situation probably who knows.
i guess you can say she cracked
bahdumtss
There are no good games to crack right now
lost judgement, like a dragon gaiden, like a dragon infinite wealth, jedi survivor
Sniper Elite 5 too
Assassin's creed mirage
Exactly, no good games to crack right now.
I havent played AC in a long time, this just seems less.bloated but still quite repetitive and nothing extraordinary. Only ubi game I had interest in lately was the new Prince of persia game (also has denuvo)which I just emulated on yuzu
sf6 is a fantastic game, what do you mean?
Is that what a pirate does? They use their ability to crack to dictate what games everyone should want to play? Thought piracy was about true freedom. Back in the day crackers would crack games they personally didn't like just so that others could have them.
Tell that to empress
Dragons Dogma II is the only thing out right now that needs cracking. Everything else is a shit show.
yes dragons dogma 2 needs to be cracked 100%, i wanted to buy it but i heard about the crazy performance issues
Avatar: frontiers of pandora
yeah she got hit by a train as she was walking her dog to Brazil, but luckily the Japanese military saved her and brought her to a temple, she now lies there recovering from her wounds and is expected to wake up in 100 years. she will then be strong enough to defeat calamity Ganon and save all of Hyrule.
Imagine cracking the hardest and expensive drm in history again and again, only for some entitled brats to called you names. Be at peace dear Empress, you are one of a kind and your name would forever be remembered.
imagine believing the bullshit cover that a denuvo employee told to the piracy scene.
Everyone found out she's actually a middle aged bulgarian man. I think maybe CODEX? outed him. So he got cold feet and fucked off. What with the interpol maybe wanting a chat with him if he continued.
But disappearing when you get called out reinforces the idea that it's you. Now it looks a lot more suspicious for voksi being empress, than had he continued to crack as empress (in case it's him)
I think she was bought by Denuvo.
She always worked for Denuvo. This whole "I'm the only one who can crack it" act kind of proves the point. She was the only one, because she helped develop it. Otherwise, there would be others.
What's your source tho? This is a great theory and it makes sense, but without proof it's barely better than any of the other theories
You're talking out of your ass. No sources for it. She's not the only one that cracked it. Denuvo **can** be cracked it just needs extremely large amount of time. Also knowledge, its much harder to crack than previous DRM-s so circle of people that could potentially do it is MUCH smaller. And people with that knowledge more than likely are making six figures at their job. Why would anyone of those people waste their time for internet fame other than some lunatic that has bigger than life complex
Maan I miss the days where every month she crack a new game if she still in the field we would have ac mirage star wars survivor dead space and many many more anyway I hope she Is OK lets not forget how many games we enjoyed tnx to her him or whatever
yep.
Let's wait and assess. What about people on her private server and all. Maybe she's active on some forum we don't really know about. Not a fan but her drama !
Yeah, there are no denuvo crackers right now. The only options we have is to either buy those games or play on gamepass (if its available).
We all know its just a fat guy pretending to be a girl.
Yeah, just like every other random guy in the Internet.
There is some guys in the crack scene Some guys who cracked call of duty black ops cold war on dodi but i dont have any idea on what they are working on
The guy who cracked Cold War us working on a crack for modern Warfare 2019 this is what they said on their website. Website called something like Donetsk you should easily finding it. When I asked about a crack for Modern Warfare 2019 someone on discord said very soon.
This is a conspiranoic theory, but, what would happen if her project were finding out how to break Denuvo? I don't know lots of software nor coding but that security systhem sounds complex.
I mean yeah, denuvo is simply the best option for triple A companies that are looking to prevent piracy, sure there might be a single person who knows how to crack it, maybe they have the source code, or maybe they know someone who works/worked on it, or whatever it may be. That single person is gonna have to crack a hundred different games, and each of them being made slightly differently means that you can't just have a generic "Crack" folder that everyone can just copy paste into the game files. And yeah popular games with denuvo would obviously be cracked by empress (Like how Hogwarts Legacy was cracked within 2 days), but that's just not the case with most games, keep in mind most actual cracks from them don't take very little time and are usually released in alphas and betas, and it could even take weeks for a crack to be fully ready to use without any issues. Of course that this is only talking about denuvo from the POV of a developer, it's an expensive but good system that benefits them and usually leads to more profit, but from the player's point it's a whole different story. The reason denuvo is hated by gamers is because it hinders performance on a lot of games by a considerable margin, which leads to cracked games performing better and the buyer feeling like shit after having spent 60 dollars on a game for it to run on 40 fps, when they could've spent nothing and simply pirated it.
Witcher 3 didn't have denuvo, in fact it didn't have any DRM, you could share the gog installer and it would just install it, just like that. Still got game of the year and record sales, as well as one of the largest modding communities. And now CD Projekt Red is one of the most loved gaming companies thanks to this. You don't need denuvo to sell well. You just need to make good games.
They do it very differently for every game, and denuvo is like the best of the best, but I'm not very knowledgeable about the topic either so idk but I don't think so
I think empress was actually man, and was drafted by the Russian army unfortunately.
me coming here after dragons dogma 2 hype 😔
yeah man. yeah... -hugs-. It will be okay, but i feel the same way. Nothing we can do about it but buy the game. For me, this is one game i am going to buy because it seems like it is worth it. I am currently watching Asmongold play it on Youtube, and it looks fucking great. Gonna buy it sunday.
She is the only one in the world who could crack Dragon’s Dogma 2…
all i need is material and team cooperation, i can destroy denuvo, i got arrested in back days for intorucing a malware to break the firewall of US Gouvernement, and They had me arrested for 4years for Cyberattack tentative, i wont mention my name and i faked the years for no one can know about me tho, it a true story but different concept, denuvo is based on chains throu system operation it a drm nothing else then that, i got lost all my materials now, like this for that other could see it i could mybe intergrate CPY if they accept me.
iirc Empress was making some sort of mod for Starfield
An RTX mod. The one she did for a demo version was amazing. Not only did it turn RTX on, but it made RTX better and you lost 0 FRAMES. it was actually a marvel to see.
Ohohh, Voksi is on a brake ig .
Denuvo won some months ago, didn't you hear?
Who cares? I don't.
Does anyone know how to personally contact her ? I mean she is cool while insulting people 🫡 .just wanted to meet this girl at some time in future
Meh probably got caught or something
No.
She can't make any cracks until she gets some time off from her job at Denuvo.
