If a cloud server becomes the only way to play the newest releases, I’m never playing the newest releases again. That’s fine. There are more games between 1980 and 2025 than I have years of life available to play.
If you can’t build a desktop and must rent an Amazon computing instance, I’m not doing computing anymore. That’s fine, people lived for thousands of years without computers, I don’t need computers to eat.
I continue to use GamePass because you can download the games to your console, but if/when they go fully cloud-only, I’m out. That will be the death knell for mainstream consoles for me. I’ll stick to my Steam Deck and modded classic consoles.
Playstation Plus was the last streaming service I used. The titles were garbage and so was the quality. I don’t know why I ever bothered when I’ve got thousands of games archived locally. I’ll go back to dumpster diving office PCs before I ever use a virtual instance again.
This is me with everything right now because of AI. There is a thousand of books, music, videogames, comics, movies that are before 2020 that I haven’t read, listen, play and so on.
I’ll never do cloud gaming/computing.
