It's horrible. Bad quality, bad latency, can't mod the games etc. And worse you have to pay for it when you already have a more than capable computer.

  i wouldnt go as far to say "its horrible". i would never recommend it to someone who otherwise has a capable computer, of course, but it really isnt that bad. i gave it a pretty thorough test out of curiosity, and when they sponsored a few streamers i watch, it was totally fine. with the caveat that you have a decent internet connection and its probably not good for twitchy games like counter strike. and, as far as i know, there is limited support for modding and some unsupported workarounds.

    And it works on the Vision Pro via the next update.

  I used Shadow PC for a long time. Never any issues over several years. Lots of reasons in preferred it over GeForce. I can expound on that later if needed

  Is the computer in question really "more than capable" if it "can't play the games [you] want to play"? I've used geforce now on my mac before and didn't have latency issues. I wasn't using it for any competitive games where you need ultrafast twitchy response, but I did use if for plenty of FPSes and never had any issues. And I don't have super fast internet, just the basic package from Spectrum. So I wouldn't say it's bad, though admittedly it might not be the best latency achievable in the gaming world.

You have to be joking, you don't own anything and enjoy your price hikes as people adopt it

  What are you talking about? Geforce Now is specifically only playable with games you own.

No idea why you're down voted... I blissfully played cyberpunk 2077 for two years on GeforceNow. I still keep my membership even though I have a dedicated gaming pc now, for occasional laptop or living room pc use. It was beyond brilliant to play a hyper demanding game on a bare spec pc :-) Mind you,I have gigabit internet. I don't know what the experience would be like on other types of internet / worldwide.
