Middle-earth: Shadow of War's Denuvo DRM cracked in a day

I'm talking about the post game, the portion after the story (besides the hidden ending) is complete. his is where the grind everyone is talking about takes place. During this grind you are given little in the way of relevant rewards, and you are incentivized to carry on through this slog to see the real ending. There is no reason that this real ending couldn't have came at the end of the story mode, where it logically belongs.

I just wonder if anyone has actually gotten to the point through normal gameplay yet to be able to gauge the impact of this "grind". I doubt whether the reviewers actually have because they only have the game for a limited time.

If it turns out that there is an interminable grind, I'll be the first to admit I'm wrong. But until anyone gets to that point through exploring all the areas, getting all the bonuses, and so on .... I reserve my judgement.

Let's focus on what we were actually talking about, loot boxes.

As I've said before, I'm not a fan of loot boxes. They're lazy content. I don't reward lazy content by buying them. It's like skin-based DLC; I don't buy those either as I think they are just lazy. Content is king IMO. And so far I'm seeing a LOT of content in the game .... certainly worth the price of admission.
