My buddy was toying with investing in this service. I cautioned him that he’d be a the mercy of a company that isn’t at all consumer friendly. Case and point
An expense or purchase is not an investment.
How so? The games aren’t purchased on GeForce Now and he could just cancel his subscription if they changed the service in a way he didn’t like.
The endgame of all these subscription services is always the same. They make you reliant, and then they jack prices and reduce service.
At this point, there are enough exemplars that anyone still buying in is just not paying attention.
Genuinely when there was actually some competition in this space, GeForce NOW was actually the consumer friendly one
Guess we have another case study in why competition results in worse outcomes for the customer in its eventual conclusion
This fucking sucks, even if 100 hrs/month isn't crazy unreasonable.
It will be 90 eventually.
This is why I dont care about game streaming. These corpos want us more reliant on them so they can suck out more money.

This could be reasonable depending on the limit. I think 1 hour limit for free tier is generous, 6 hour limit for medium tier is reasonable if most users play less than 6 hours per session. But 8 hours for the top tier sucks balls and is a major scam.
