  They really want to put us on hardware as a service. Eventually you won’t be able to buy hardware, digital ownership will be eroded, and you’ll pay more for it than if we’d kept the hardware market alive. Better to just cut the cord now and if it doesn’t run on your old pc just don’t run it. Don’t pay for streaming services.

    I completely agree, and I guess I should have qualified that I meant AAA and multiplayer games. All my other games I play directly on either my Steam Deck or my old 1080ti box.
