I remember trying another service like this years ago.
cant remember its name nor how it performed but the problem is ofcourse latency, and if the servers are not in your vicinity it would not really play well. So it really depends on how far you are. I dont know how well it works if you have a good connection to the servers, would like to see a demo of that

latency

prolly good for single player, but gotta try it out myself

All they would do is offer a good experience to start, then as more subs came along, they would scale back performance by overloading the servers, its what every web host has ever done to me.

You could probably get away with that on many games, but I would not want to FPS from it.

Not that I'm any sort of expert on this, but I'm also thinking the bandwidth and latency between connecting to their cloud and then the game servers is something I could not live with.

Good pc's don't have to cost a lot of money these days, especially if you're prepared to tone down a few key features, mostly resolution and one or two post processing effects which usually just get in the way anyway.

For me this is a service for 3rd world gamers and the costs they would charge in a year, would probably be like an extra monthly utility bill like electric or gas.

all pc's will be like this eventually.
TB's of porn history shoved up the cloud

This crap, again? Every few years some smartass crawls out the woodworks to present the world the innovative "gaming streaming".

Spoiler: It does not. Fucking work.

For too many reasons. Fucking hell, it's 2018, we still have a good percentage of the population stuck with crappy internet providers, and actually ever more people every year have no choice but volume connections. Volume. Connections.

We're going backward, not forward.

Also the lag is absolute killer even for single player games (multiplayer games are simply a no).

Also it's expensive.

Also, the best fix for hardware problems would be ram companies to stop fixing prices, kindly, and cryptominers to go fuck their mothers, kindly, instead of the gpu market.

Nvidia execs have already masturbated themselves raw, and wasted an impressive amount of blood transfusions to not completely bleed out in joy.

It would be nice to be able to buy decent graphic cards not at 200%+++ their value.
