There are fewer people able to rip the assets now, but the 1 guy that's really good at it posts all of them online in the subreddit every time now. I believe this was to prevent people from ripping the assets early before an update and then posting them online, ruining any surprises.
I am, in general against trying to prevent this kind of things because it's time-consuming and largely pointless.įinal Fantasy Brave Exvius (JP version) started encrypting their assets a while ago.
