Nvidia, the company that makes graphics cards you can’t afford anymore and keeps vying for status as the world’s most valuable company, is taking a page from Xbox’s book and announcing a confusing change to its GeForce Now cloud gaming service that includes a monthly cap on the hours you can play games. As many people are saying in the comments to the announcement, maybe it’s time to build a PC.
I will be honest that after writing the lede above I had to look up exactly what GeForce Now is, and reaffirm that it is not one of the many Nvidia things my graphics card installed on my computer. Like Stadia (RIP) and Microsoft’s xCloud, GeForce Now can let you stream games your hardware might not be able to support. It has a bunch of tiers, some of which now have new names and new limits.
I guess the service is dying, the move seems like business oriented, next step would be to reduce catalog and finally cancellation.
