http://shadow.tech http://shadow.tech is still way better - you get your own PC so can run all games and work related software, stream 4k with 10ms latency from datacenters near you, it's almost impossible to discern a difference from running locally. All for 12$ a month, a stupid low price.
Sadly this has made them go bankrupt - but have been bought out recently so the future is uncertain.
Point being the market is more than ripe for this tech to accelerate - and shadow has had 1 year waiting lists, for years, so it's weird to me that more money isn't poured into this space.

- kossTKR 5y agoTrue, but personally i haven't had any hassle. Blazing fast connection speeds so you just install steam or another client and download your games, updates are super fast too. But yeah, the perfect platform would be 1-click games - but then you can't mod and have way less games available because publishers as in the film industry just cant figure out licensing.
- hocuspocus 5y agoThe business plan submitted by OVH to the bankruptcy court says the monthly subscription will need to be raised to $25 in hope for profitability within 3 years. It seems inherently complicated to provide the required CPU and GPU resources in an elastic way, when most gamers play at the same peak hours.
