Not the first feature they took away but it might be the most high profile one, although I didn't use it since W95. But there is a reason for it, and it's control. MS has been slowly eroding user oversight and control in windows like the ability to control when and how updates are installed...

They keep saying this but cloud is simply DOA. For big compute usually means big data, so bandwidth and storage makes the cloud impractical and much slower. Not to mention the cost of terabytes of SSD storage on cloud. And for gaming they'd need faster than light communications to make the lag...

I did not predict the year of linux I predict the end of windows. Normies have already abandoned desktop PCs for smartphones and tablets. GenZ never even used it to begin with

That's what every "too big to fail" company thinks, until something happens to them. XBOX is already a dead brand. Windows can be too. I didn't think it possible even a year ago, but moving to Linux doesn't seem that far fetched now. And not because linux became so much better, but because...

If a company needs to be failing before implementing consumer friendly features then it deserves to fail. Why are these companies unable to learn from Steam? Instead of copying the model they'd rather destroy it thinking then all gamers would just flock to them. Like EGS. But if steam was...

This fits right in the trajectory extrapolated from the two existing games.

The best comment I've heard was: Somehow Concord returned

Yep, it repeats alright just not the history of home computers but the far more laughable and recent precedents of crypto, NFTs, and the metaverse.

Not the same thing. Computers were designed by engineers and were conceptually sound. AI is "designed" by AI bros throwing more computational power at the wall to beat the other AI bros. Well, not even beat as there is no finish line, just to keep ahead of them in a race to nowhere in...

I hope Ghost Recon is not among the axed titles. That's about the only game from them I was still interested to see.

Yeah, it's copies, not revenue. The Witcher 3 - 60 million Cyberpunk 2077 - 35 million Witcher 2 - 15 million Witcher - 10 million C2077: Phantom Liberty - 10 million

"It's not happening, but it's the memory makers fault!"

Teams typically only get slashed after their product is out and failed, firewalk studios didn't loose a single person until after concord was out. They enjoyed the full backing of Sony. Which is mostly the word of disgruntled and lazy workers amplified by hacks like Jason Schreier. Everything...

That's a really poor take. The computational cost of UE features is not corporate greed, unless you consider using UE as part of corporate greed. The issue is complacency, And no, it's not corporate heads who are complacent about optimisation, because they know F all about it. It is the devs...

That's what you get for not using a phonetic language like civilized folk.

This is what I'd expect AI to generate if asked to make a mashup of CP2077 and Fallout4. Also barely looks one A. Can't say it got my interest peeked.

More cards to make less of? Unlikely, I'm so cynical at this point I wouldn't be surprised if nvidia's big update would be pulling a crucial, I mean micron.

Up to 6X More Fake! I'd settle for just 1X real frame but nvidia hasn't or barely improved raw rasterizer performance in the last two gens. Not even a 5090 can run CP2077, a 5 year old game at playable frame rates.

Does it come with BYO RAM and SIYO GPU?

DRM is not the issue, people (and that includes me) only care about convenience. Therefore DRM only becomes a problem when it inconveniences people. Steam never did anything with the intent to inconvenience their users. If someone could make the streaming equivalent of Steam they would break...
