Don’t pay for this shit. It’s another case of “you’ll own nothing and stop fucking complaining, peasant.”

4.6 trillion dollar company btw.

Just save what you would spend on subscribing to tbis dumb shit for a few months and build your own machine so you don't have to throw money away on a subscription service.

Next up is rentable GPUs with a subscription. You'll eventually own nothing

100h is fucking nothing. Such a waste of money

what are people even paying for, 100h per month isn't that much if you have a fair amount of free time or would pause the games between doing other things. i'm expecting for posts about someone accidentally leaving it open and not being able to play for the rest of the month.

And now the other shoe drops. We can see what kind of future these companies are shaping for us. Where you have to pay them a subscription fee in order to use premium hardware. While they slowly stop selling it to the public.

First they came for your music. Then they came for your movies. They came for your Games. Now they want your computers.

I wish I could hit 100 hours of playtime a month.

Still cheaper than buying a gaming PC by far.

I hit 112 hours in Black Ops 7 in two weeks.

Genuinely eat shit, Nvidia.

Remember, you're borrowing their hours from AI data centers, and AI takes precedence. Don't use this service

From what I understand about this subscription (I never looked into it before) it's basically like a reverse Game Pass? So you pay the monthly subscription, and you can play the games that are on the service, on different devices aside from just a PC?

While that does sound pretty cool and impressive, I can't imagine most people, or most anyone that calls themselves a gamer would touch this service with a 20' pole. Like at that point, just own the game and system you want. You can play whenever and for however long you want.

Also, this may sound weird, but after reading the article I have a strong urge to start a game and just let it run idle, racking up playtime. Out of spite for Nvidia I guess.

That's. 3.33 hours/day. That's a whole lot of playtime...

Just part of the lifecycle of every digital service.

I wonder where they got 100hr?

I wonder if there's some metric they're going off of where the majority of the subscriber base only plays less than 100hrs and the "abusers" or whales play over the 100hr mark.

100hr / 30 days is 3.3 hours a day. Which as a father of two... I'd be lucky to get that much in a day.

100hr / 20 days(5 days a week) is 5 hours a day.

100hr / 8 days (weekends only gaming) is 12.5 hours a day.

None of these are outrageous and probably are the "average" user of the service.

Now if you're doing 8 or 12 hours a day for 30 days, that's 240-360 hours a month. Which is pretty much gaming full time.

I think 100 hours is a weird number to land on. I think 120 hours makes more sense (4 hours a day over 30 days).

I do expect Nvidia to lower the hours over time. Expect to see 80 hours or 50 hours soon IMO.

you really don't want to piss off your paying customers who have more than a hundred hours of free time a month to trash you online lol

Use Boosteroid instead.

Fuck NVIDIA.
