why invest in expensive hardware now when cloud gaming is inevitable?
>>727695503not everyone within the global video games market has as secure or reliable power sources / internet connection so it makes sense that they buy hardware unreliant on such things. maybe there's some dudes out there who want to video game in places the internet does not reach, would you deny them games? why?
>>727695503Because you need expensive hardware to run a cloud
Game streaming is the end goal of rising hardware prices.
>>727697118it's completely retarded and extremely wasteful
>>727695503people will just go back to low spec gaming and reject aaaa titles with gaytracing
>>727695503Because the games i like run on my machine and i'm not selling it.Cloud gaming is specifically for people that:1) Don't like consoles2) Want to play high end gamesand 3) are retarded enough to think cloud is a good ideaIt's a very small group
>>727695503I don't know dude, ask Google stadia
>>727697118There's no end goal, there's no grand plan.The ones in power are fucking retarded, and the ones trying to take the power are even more retarded.We're talking about retarded boomers and european royalty dreaming of a 1984 like world but not knowing what a fucking transistor is, and gay ass liberals that think that communism is a good idea.
>>727697118gotta do something with all those gpus when the bubble pops
>>727698629Sell em back, because there's no audience for streaming.Most people only play lightweight shit that runs on intel igpus (or phone chips more likely), and the actual high end gamers in most part just play on consoles.The only thing left is the small niche of high end PC gamers that will in most part not like streaming at all.
>>727695503cloud gaming could use quantum computers and it wouldnt be viable.if your countries internet infrastructure is shit then it still wont take off>inb4 in what 3rd world shithole are you livinggermany
>>727695503>OnLiveKinda wonder what happened to those guys after I heard about them say "We got the Wii U gamepad ALREADY guys!" and that Classic Game Room video.>On August 17, 2012, the company laid off all of its employees.>It was revealed in October of that year that OnLive was sold for only $4.8 million. For a company that analysts once estimated was worth approximately $1.8 billion, there was some surprise at the low figure for which the company was sold.>On April 3, 2015, OnLive announced it had sold most of its assets to Sony Computer Entertainment and would be shutting down all services on April 30, 2015.
>>727695503huh? why not retard?
