Overall: @BlankpopsiclesilviaASHs4 Great article! I would recommend ALT1 for the hook since the first hook seems less hook-y. Denuvo is pretty well-known (infamous) for their anti-cheat software, so making an anti-piracy measure for the Switch doesn't seem that surprising considering their history.

Alright then! I'm good with ALT1 as the choice hook, so I guess it should hopefully be good to go. Thanks for the review! silviaASH (User:BlankpopsiclesilviaASHs4) (inquire within) 05:49, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
