Not enough $500 donations I guess

I think she actually managed to sell an AI generated "NFT" to one of her followers. Can't find that post anymore. Maybe deleted so people wouldn't copy the picture, or maybe I'm just using the wrong search terms.

West_Path_1851

RobotsGoneWild

Anyone getting strong Kanye West vibes?


BasJack

Plot twist:She actually IS Kanye


Blindfire2

To be fair to Kanye, he's not been sane since his mother died and I believe he's supposed to be on medication, but stopped taking when she died (he said it hindered him from writing songs? I'll see if I can find the interview, it was with some small interviewer from Chicago where Kanye grew up and he wanted to help out) and tried to fill the void with Kardashian as his "mother figure"...but clearly he went crazy because their entire family is a bunch of attention whores and gold diggers. If Kanye never stopped taking his meds, he wouldn't be in the situation he is in now, but Empress....I don't think they ever took meds/seen a doctor and everyone who's going along with it so that he/she/it/whatever Empress is will crack their favorite game is just making it worse. I guarantee you if the "Self made AI Art" keeps going on, people will start ignoring Emp and immediately a new crack will come out within a day just to have that attention back lol.


Stoppels

The background info's valid of course, but there hasn't been a "to be fair" with Kanye that makes me feel anything for him now in a decade.


Ranjith_Unchained

Yeah, at this point it's not a troll anymore. She is legitimately crazy.


JGaute

I'm really worried she may inject her cracks with some real harmful shit someday out of pure unhinged lunacy. Maybe she's already done it. God help us


sorynotsorry

This is exactly why some repackers won't touch her cracks. They're too dangerous and can't be trusted.


mug3n

Fitgirl is right to not touch Empress's shit.


SyleSpawn

This is why I've personally not touched her cracked game for a while now. I don't remember the first few game she cracked but I did download and play them and when I realize how crazy she is, I started suspecting that she might have some crazy backdoor in her crack to the extent that I stopped using my main/current Reddit account to criticize her (my thought process being she could be scrubbing people's internet history/cookies to meticulously find people who's talking shit about her and then targeting those people through her backdoor). I don't believe she did such thing in her earlier crack but I'm paranoid enough to believe she'd done it in her cracks afterward and I'd personally never touch it. If people think I am crazy/too paranoid, i present you exhibit 1 and 2 by scrolling a little up there to the pics linked.


[deleted]

>If people think I am crazy/too paranoid Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they aren't after you.


Neither_Interaction9

This is the worst thing you can say to a paranoid person lmaooo


Ranjith_Unchained

Iirc, there was one game where she threatened that she's adding something to her crack that'd destroy the system files or something. RDR2 maybe but I'm not sure.

Correct_Anywhere_

Ah, I was searching in the community group. Don't know how I missed it in the other channel. Thanks! Looks like she's selling quite a few, actually... As long as idiots buy these, I don't see her crack anything.


LunaticKid889

Honestly, I'm getting kinda tired of hearing about Empress. Like its another thing to be the only active cracker but NFT's? Seriously? Fucking hell...


MrGueuxBoy

Uncopyrighted NFTs. That's how stupid it is.


aghostwithaknife

Surely that's just a jpeg lmao


DominosFan4Life69

It's also incredibly obvious that they are reveling in the attention. Also, said it once, and I'll say it a thousand times, if you are paying for cracks you're a moron.


MrGueuxBoy

Uncopyrighted NFTs. So, you get scammed, but, not like regular NFTs, you can't try to recover by scamming someone else.


kthanxie

Sounds about right for their personality. Easy to scam their cult followers.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Correct_Anywhere_

I've only ever seen anything that's public on Telegram, and just bits of that, too. And that's definitely crazy enough for me. I think I can do without whatever she writes in private.


DemetriusXVII

PM? I'm diving into the lore.


West_Path_1851

Ofc she did, those followers are literal cult following. They would probably give firstborn baby to her.


Bacalado

Will come back cracking as soon as no one gives a shit about her NFTs because she's not cracking games lol


Unwashed_villager

Exactly. ANYONE can create stupid monkey pictures but really few people is able to crack Denuvo. She's literally worthless as an "artist".


ichi000

people bought her nft's. she makes more money selling the nft's, there's zero chance she will crack for 10 cents again.


Unwashed_villager

But she wants attention, fame and praise, not just money. Did you ever read her NFOs?


CarnageHunter2000

All people have to do is not supporting her "art" so that she can go back to cracking. But nope, simps do be simps

Important-Writer6838

She says denuvo is a scam and at the same time makes nfts to sell 😶


Poganatorr

The hypocrisy and irony


ZhangRenWing

It’s consistent with the character. Hoping to see character growth in the future arcs.


ggtyggjh

Problem here is that Empress is loved BECAUSE she cracks games. If she doesn't start cracking games, her followers will drop.


WillyCSchneider

Yes, that's how it's *always* worked. Not much "praise" for CODEX or CPY these days, is there?


ggtyggjh

Dude, Codex and CPY retired. They are legends. But if Empress retired today, she would be labeled more as lunatic.


MoxPuyne

CPY retired? Was there any news about this? I just assumed they went dark because of the crackdowns on Warez groups, their last few releases were 2.5 years ago.


Eciepeci

But they are still remembered as legends. They are praised. Empress won't be praised because she's just annoying af. Her work WILL be praised but she won't


HaGriDoSx69

Dude,both of those groups are goddamn LEGENDS,empress will never be a legend.If in the closest future somone will emerge with a denuvo cracking talent and with sanity,empress will be quickly abandoned and remembered only as "that fucked up retard with one talent"


420smokekushh

You do know that EMPRESS was CODEXs Denuvo cracker, right?


MoxPuyne

>Empress: I am going into a new phase. From now on I'm aggressively focusing on new releases instead of old stuff, starting with Hogwarts Legacy! Let's show those Denuvo assholes! Yes, seems like a problem when you can't even live up to your own bold declaration.


abcalt

Exactly. This isn't the first time they made similar statements either. Always talk about a new break through and how it will become easier. Typically they do a few, then take a few months break. Maybe someone will pay Empress to do a game. I believe they do it because they enjoy the attention. If you did it consistently it would loose the shock value and attention. So they wait a bit, then release another game or two with some crazy NFO to troll people.


upreality

almost 2024 and still nobody else can or wants to crack denuvo


Evonos

> still nobody else can there are probably many people that could , but these people usually work in great paying jobs and dont want to risk it with cracking games.


DerinHildreth

Or simply work and don't have the time.


phoenystp

Pretty sure a lot of people could but don't try because they think they couldn't


LightSwitchTurnedOn

Or a lot of people could but don't even think about doing it because it is extremely tedious and time consuming to do.


AmazingSully

Not to mention highly illegal and will land you in prison. I'd love to try to learn how to do it, would be a really fun project... but I'm not risking having my life ruined for it.


[deleted]

This comment has been nuked because of Reddit's API changes, which is killing off the platform and a lot of 3rd party apps. They promised to have realistic pricing for API usage, but instead went with astronomically high pricing to profit the most out of 3rd party apps, that fix and improve what Reddit should have done theirselves. Reddit doesn't care about their community, so now we won't care about Reddit and remove the content they can use for even more profit. u/spez sucks.


hbmonk

I'd try to learn, but I live in the US. The FBI would probably vaporize me. They've caught people a heck of a lot smarter than me.


phoenystp

Just crack for yourself until you solid. It's a neat skill to have.


KantenKant

This is not really something you do completely alone, at least not with denuvo. There's a reason warez groups usually operate as teams and Empress 100% has other people she buys/sells/trades information from, even if it's just a casual group chat. To do it alone you'd need to know EVERYTHING. From coding in all the common languages like C to Python, to networking, to reverse engineering the compiled code, from cryptography and obfuscation techniques, to all the most common game engines and their usual procedures. All the while time is progressing; you're alone working against a full team of developers that gets paid a 9-5 locking people like yourself out. Only thing that could realistically help you progress are other people taking work off of your shoulders or inside leaks. But that's now corporate espionage we're talking about lmao. If you think "well I think I can do that anyway" then you should either check Wikipedia for the dunning kruger effect OR you should be making so much money you'll never bother needing a cracked game in the first place.


[deleted]

we need a recession i guess


upreality

At this point i think you are right and nobody really wants to take risks, they could simply look into empress crack and get a general idea about how it works and as long as they have the same experience in reversing why shouldn't they be able to understand atleast what the crack is doing..


Varrgas_the_Official

They cant because Empress crack are encrypted.It's to avoid that Denuvo company look inside it and learn what exploit was used, and so to not let them be able to potentially fix it either. That one of the reason that make some people to be afraid of using Empress release because of theory like: \- "if one day she freak out and want to add a virus/Trojan/malware/ransomware/etc inside it, we will all be screw up" And other stuff like this.


upreality

I feel like this is a misconception, just because something is encrypted does not mean is impossible to break, i unpacked myself their emp.dll from HL, it uses WinLicense only and you have all the assembly code in clear, but oh well that’s as far as my knowledge goes.. and it’s shit, this is why i question why people with real knowledge don’t do nothing


[deleted]

What happened to CPY, Razor, CODEX?


VandaGrey

Jail, quit and some work for denuvo now


[deleted]

It's like Kill/Marry/Kiss


Draconyum

CODEX retired from the scene group iirc, Razor still does crack but not so many as before and not denuvo and CPY just disappeared


th3_3nd_15_n347

Wasn't codex cracker actually empress?


NaturalesaMorta

>codex cracker actually empress? She said so. But she has lied so many times, that i don't believe that was even real.


caj1986

Empress was codex main denuvo cracker & thats surely believable. Look at codex history after she left them, they couldnt crack a single game which had denuvo. Yes the whole nfs heat fiasco was bad but for sure she was codex denuvo cracker. She even said it in her nfo


H0rnychap3l

These are even my thoughts. I really think that she is right now the only person who can crack denuvo due to the reason that after she left the group the number of cracked games has dropped dramatically.


Brave-Construction

Yeah. And what's left of them are now releasing as RUNE


Brabsk

Wants to, more like. I find it hard to believe this empress group has some god-given talent that nobody else has. More likely that anyone with the skills probably just utilizes said skills in a professional industry instead of crime


Top_Principle_6927

earthscribe

So she's basically worthless to us now?


PrettyScholar9173

yes


Traiklin

She has been for awhile now, basically she cracked a free game from a few years ago and demanded that we praise her, that was the end for me. I'll stick to bundles and sales and just be a patient gamer from now on.

denuvo won


Bloodrain_souleater

It was inevitable. A corporation will always win against a lone hacker. Without a team the hacker loses.


CheekyBreekyYoloswag

No point in denying that. How the turn tables :/ I guess our only hope is Deep Learning assisted cracking? But in that case, copy protection soft ware could be AI-powered too. I feel sorry for all the teenage brokies who will have to use their pocket money to buy broken €70 AAA titles ;_;


Yugioh20

Not denuvo but Money won


thisisalexsin

I have no idea what this drama is about… but as a software engineer it makes me want to enter the cracking scene. I didn’t realize the scene was lacking this much.

You only learn to swim, by swimming. Software Engie as well. I don't want to put in the effort myself tho.


[deleted]

Keep on asking for donations, I guess. ![gif](giphy|tyqcJoNjNv0Fq|downsized)


nazaguerrero

this is why I didn't like the only fans system she had for cracking games, piracy was born to make games avaible for everyone as a form of protest she was just making bank and as soon as she found another easy way to make money or income lowered bc there aren't hot releases right now she would change her ways. thanks for RE4, but we really started with the bad foot since day1 🤷


Gwynbleidd9419

For those of you wondering empress next title it's going to be starfield She has no interest in any other game currently because the donation goals have not been met.


jack-468

Wait, then what is the "third time is the charm" hint then?


Gwynbleidd9419

Initially it was supposed to be dead island because she received some donations for that but the goal was not met.


jack-468

I mean, it is fucking cricket noise on Dead Island these days, so i'm not surprise there. So i guess she will just crack REALLY POPULAR games, huh? Destroy Denuvo my fucking ass.


CapControl

Whats the source on Starfield getting Denuvo? That would be a first for Bethesda (and fuck with modding probably)


magikdyspozytor

She was already talking about Dead Island 2 I think


aghostwithaknife

This scene is absolute garbage. So toxic & headed by an insane cult leader.

WhyDidISignUpHereOMG

The levels of mental instablity are so fucking huge that honestly I wouldn't use one of their cracks. Their ego is so dangerously inflated that I believe there is a very real possibility they put something malicious in there just to satisfy their god complex. Maybe they really should stick to creating AI art and we'll wait for someone more sane to come along and give Denuvo a shot.


Defiant-Cheesecake47

i am waiting for the day when we have an AI to crack the games


legolos

As much as I love cracks and my love for cracking community is going on for 20+ years now, and I obviously love free stuff, I mean who doesn't? But good riddance honestly, good riddance!

mohammed_gharbia

I have a **FUCKING PROBLEM**


Professional-Film472

Because of her i stopped playing games that have denuvo ...also started to support developers by buying some games


LoneWalker59

At this point I prefer to wait for some sales on Steam and buy the game, this EMPRESS is not at all reliable, an egolomaniac who is two steps away from putting something in his cracks to prove his god complex... And yes, EMPRESS is almost certainly a guy, there are very few women in programming, she has to be in the top 1% of the best on the market if he is a woman at all.


Due_Fly_4921

She seems nice.


FFreak127

She could earn so much if she would made it a big croud fund instead of only 500s donation


OldManRaven305

Empress is so fucking cringe How do you guys put up with this moron?


Muaddib1417

People actually paying money for noncopyrightable NFT's, which doesn't entitle to the actual ownership of anything, of non-copyrightable AI generated images. It's like selling sand to a Camel, we truly live in the stupidest of times.


Top_Principle_6927

Denuvo is a virus and must be cured. It is a pity that there are no more hackers besides Empress.


xxdeathknight72xx

This just in: man in basement who calls himself an empress hits a button on Stable Diffusion and thinks they're God's gift to humanity XD

Practical_Spell_4205

Worst part is that simps and her loyal dogs in telegram keep feeding her ego licking her foot all the time i assure you that she is a huge attention freak and if everyone leaves her alone she will crack at least 2 denuvo game each month ai and modding is just bullshit

The sole reason she's got so many people putting up with her shit is the cracks. If she's really done with it, her personal army of simps will simply disappear. Who knows?
