That is false. Denuvo DRM works on Linux and has for many years.

I didn't say it doesn't work at all, but it's been problematic. An example:

That issue only happens if there are other issue with the game unrelated to denuvo on wine which requires trying different prefixes resulting in the DRM locking you out. Its the fault of the horrible DRM.
