Gross!
AI nonsense makes owning your own computer too expensive and your solution is to reward the same assholes by paying a subscription to use their hardware with bonus lag? Have you no shame?
Comment on Why is gaming becoming so expensive? The answer is found in AI

It’s better than what I could afford.
It’s pretty astounding actually. I have zero lag and the graphic fidelity is exceptional.
I couldn’t afford a PC system even before the price rises. So this is the bestway to experience high quality gaming for the majority of people.

Short term it’s cheaper, but to an enthusiast the lag, and the lack of ownership really rankles.

I’ve never had an issue with the lag.
The games are owned outside of gfn.
I’ve never lost access to any game yet.

That’s cool, where do you buy your games?
Even streaming from my desktop to TV downstairs using ethernet is noticeable to me! It’s alright for some games but not great for fast stuff.

Steam, green gaming man, epic, etc. Gay stuff maybe, I don’t think I’ve tried that but for single payer, I’ve seen no hurricane lag unless maybe I use WiFi instead of ethernet.
What cat is your ethernet cable?
The latency added by a Cat 6 cable itself is imperceptible, typically adding only about 0.5 microseconds (0.0005 ms) over a full 100-metre run. For comparison, electricity travels through the cable at roughly 200 million metres per second, meaning it would take a cable over 100 miles long just to add 1 millisecond of “ping”.
So cat6 which a lot of people use some new imperceptible. Maybe there’s an issue else where on your network
