>$20/month vs $1,500–$3,000 upfront
>No drivers, no Windows bloat, no upgrades
>Runs max settings on a Chromebook / junk laptop
I might just cancel my plan to buy a new gaming pc after my last ones motherboard got fried.

The option to buy a PC will always be there, and you need a GPU for any series programming, but as far as gaming is concerned it's clear to me now that cloud/remote hosting is the future. Anyone on any shit laptop can log into this and play top tier games

Especially now than ram is going up in price, the free market is going to move in this direction. I know which stocks are gonna be up soon, and it's cloud gaming

$20*12 is $240 a year to buy pc parts
absolutely enough to have a really powerful gaming pc
>>
>>107631613
How is the latency?
>>
>>107631635
240 dollars per year.

If you made 240 dollars per year, it's going to take you years to afford a good gaming pc. And when you buy it probably will need replacements and upgrades after that anyway. Are you high?
>>
>>107631634
if you are under 18 and use your pc for gaming or you're a wagie with no life ambition, then cloud computing is good
if you are a student or have an iq on the right part of the bell curve you would realize that a work pc is better
>>
>>107631638
It's fine if you're not playing anything competitive.
It's been playable for years t bh - I actually finished Bloodborne on the Sony one years ago and that's one of the worse ones.
>>
I only make $40 a year
>>
>>107631647
A cheap Chromebook is good enough for most work or student related tasks. Or an entry level computer with a decent ram and GPU if you're doing serious pen testing or developing
>>
>>107631655
which brazilian city are you from
>>
>>107631638
Its better than you would expect, counter strike is enjoyable even on the free tier (but on free tier you only get 1 hour per session) after that it gets better. 20 dollars for 8 hours.
>>
genius ahead of its time
>>
>>107631669
somewhere in the north east

>>107631638
i tried out Street Fighter 6 on it and it wasn't playable. played some platform games with no issue. overall good imo, within boundaries.

>$20 to lure cattle in
>the second they create user base $50
>then 50 10 150 for latency tiers
>then $200 because you dont have computers anymore

It's simply more efficient to provide compute for complex tasks like high level gaming from a data center. You are being socially irresponsible if you want to run a 2000W behemoth to play a game.
>>
Fuck off
>>
>>107632065
you can play every single game on a 240W pc
>>
>>107631613
>getting service cancelled and banned after saying nigger once in voice chat
>>
>>107632063
I don't see how they have that much pricing power considering the service has to compete with PCs and consoles.
>>
>>107632095
Can you read the whole thing
Even at $100 a month you need 6 months of subscription to pay out 32gigs of RAM
In world where food is on subscription and pay later like that whats their name bullshit i can see this happening
>>
>>107632076
I recently power tested mine. Running uncharted 4 with max graphics 60 fps and it barely broke 200w. Don't know where people keep getting those goofy wattages from. Fucking LoL at 500fps on 2 SLI cards or something?
>>
>>107632166
Most people run chilled 14900Ks with uncapped power limits and hardmodded 5090s that pull a kW+.
>>
>>107631613
Yes, you'll of own nothing and be happy
>>
>Non local hardware
Utterly deranged.
>>
>Have to pay extra if you play more than 100 hours
Why would I ever do that?
>>
>>107632181
>most people
did you just pull most people out of your ass anon
most people are using 1650 pr 3060 and 6 core Ryzens, you have Steam hardware survey
