>pay $19.99 a month to stream games>reach 100 hours played in a month>now have to pay $5.99 to play for each additional 15 hoursAnd people said streaming games was the future...
remember when some guy, i think ceo, of take two said that paying per time played makes more sense? this is the future we are heading towards
>>729360513nvidia has to make money somehow lmao, gotta pay back all those AI investments
You will be able to play for over 1700 hours for the cost of one high tier graphics card.
>>729360771Didn't he said it meaning that a game with 200 hours of playtime shouldn't cost the same as a game that's completely finished after playing 6 hours?In some way it makes sense.
>>729360929every game with 200+h of playtime is just the first 2 hours repeated 100 times.
>>729360513This is what's called "rent seeking". Increasing profits without providing more products or services. The line MUST go up, so they have to find more and more scummy ways to squeeze money out of you.
>Try to make people rent everythingWestern stupidity>Get people addicted to gamblingOriental superiority
>>729360823So in just over half a month it recoups itself? Cool.
>>729360513>And people said streaming games was the future...Said nobody, anyone who said otherwise was selling something.
why the fuck are you still paying for streaming for fuck sake. Reminds me of the tards at work that complains that they don't have money for Christmas gift but are subscribed to every streaming service under our glorious Sun.
>>729360513if you play over 100 hours each month you obviously care about gaming enough to have a relatively good pc, no? I don't see this impacting a lot of people
>$19.99/mo for 5080 performance + 16vCPU performance(close to 500W TDP combined)>electricity for other parts and datacentre cooling>nearly 700W (0.7kWh) factoring overall efficiencies>100hrs x 0.7kWh = 70kWh>USA national average is ~18c/kWh (some states up to 40c/kWh)>70kWh x $0.18/kWh = $12.6Nvidia isn't ripping you off THAT hard since you've got to pay the tip for rentingObviously they get their electricity cheaper because datacentres can negotiate rates but they also have to pay for physical staff and maintenanceYou're still better off buying if you can afford the upfront cost (lol lmao RAM prices) but for people who can't afford it or live in VERY high electricity cost areas, GFN isn't the worst
>>729361670>VERY high electricity cost areasoon, electricity costs will be high everywhere because data centers are outbidding regular consumers
>>729360513someday I will leave the internet for good if this development keeps going
>>729361606it starts at 100 hoursthen 90 then 80etc.the point is to not let the idea get off the ground
>>729360513>ai took our ram>cloud storage took our ssds>now game streaming will take our gpus
>>729361994And worst of all>wage slaving took away our vidyaIt's over... I just wanted to play the heckin vidya but I am on the wagie cagie
>>729361994You don't need more than Nethack
I play at least a hundred hours of games every two weeks, and that's when I'm taking it easy. I don't understand who would ever pay for 100 hours of games per month.
>>729360513> playing more than 100 hours a month
>>729360513>>7293619842-3 years later>Who even plays 100 hours a month anyway?>We decided to cap it at 2 hours a day so people stay productive
>>729362194based Asian father
Most of the people here don't even play 100 hours per month. If they can get the shitty delay down this is going to work
>>729360513>goyoyoyoyoyoyoyoyoyoyoyooooooooyyyyyyy..........quiet at first, but rapidly increasing in volumeCRASH!>suddenly jensen huang bursts through your window, surfing on a magic dreidlhey, guess what gamers, I'm chosen now!>zaps your computer with heeb magicthere, now you have no ram and all your games are gay and full of niggers! oh, and you need to pay me every month! bye cracker hahahahahah>goyoyoyoyoyoyoyyooyoyoyyyyoooyyyyy.........moral of the story: keep a hand and cheese sandwich at the ready when you game.......
>>729362234>/v/>playing vidyachecks out
>>729360513>>reach 100 hours played in a monththt aint easy
This won't stop gamers from building PCs btw
This is shit is aimed at the normie consumer. Everyone who can pirate is still better off buying a PC
>>729360929No because quality is a thing.
>>729362364>threatening Njewdia by buying their hardware
>>729360513who the fuck plays more than 100 hours each month?
>>729360771Or, remember when the CEO at EA argued that First-Person Shooters should charge players real money for each bullet they fire in the game? Completely unrestrained rent-seeking is definitely where Wall Street corpoparasites want to take society.
>>729362520pilpul
>>729362527nah, that was charging to reloadsame idea tho
>>729362520>>729362138Ironic anti-semitism is still antisemitic.
>>729362489Nah, I'm AMD now.
>>729362628KWAB
>>729360513The really fun part is they are gonna use all your inputs and data to train their AI and use it against you. So in the end not only did you pay nvidia to fuck you over but the data you provide is infinitely more valuable to them then your shitty 10$.The world is fucking crazy man.
>>729360513>hardware as a service
>>729362628That's good, anon, join the 3% and give your money to Jansen's cousin.
>>729360513>"Gamers" will cough up for this so they're not considered poor by their peers that they'll never meet or truly know, instead of questioning why the fuck things got to this point, and not being complacent Gaming has been dying for at least 15 years. I can't wait to see it end so I can finally get some closure. It sucks having to figure out who I am and realize not much because gaming has been a core part of my identity since I was about 4 or so, and deciding to leave gaming before I'm totally sucked in and become complacent is leaving me with a hollow feeling
>>729360513>Jews remind everyone why were they "prosecuted"
why do retards like op think its people playing 10 hours a day buying this
>stadia 2No one is going to use this. Normie cattle uses phones and consoles, and gamers wont tolerate the input lag from streaming. It'll be quietly cancelled and njewdia will pretend it never happened in the first place.OP (faggot is he) knows this, but he keeps reposting this stale bait because amateur trolling on 4chan is the closest he'll ever get to human interaction.
>>729360513Why is last years news presented as somehting new?
>>729361921Datacentres don't produce shit tho, at this rate the LLM bubble will burst before any of them centres will even get built.
>>729367087don't worry NSA'll take everything for cheap after the bubble pops
>>729367087Do you forget how it works?Government swoops in and bails them out.They NEED their social credit systemYou think this is some open market?
