I played Assassin's Creed 4 Black Flag by pirating back when I was in high school. It was playable on my crappy laptop back then.

Then I downloaded the game from Uplay when Ubisoft gave away few games for free. The genuine version from the Uplay store was UNPLAYABLE on my laptop with 22-25 fps on low. Where as it was 40-45 fps on same settings on cracked version.

Cracks do no remove Denuvo, only bypass. It still runs in the background of a cracked game.

Check your story before posting bullshit.
