Quoting: GuestThe one platform that would've ticked all the boxes is, of course, Stadia. Epic didn't want to go through Google's payment methods though, and Google wasn't about to give that up either, but it would've solved the cheating problem and given GNU/Linux users a way to pay play it.

Quoting: EikeWell, if you could elaborate on your "no they didn't"? Google Stadia is a service you can pay for (AFAIR there's a free base service) and where you need to buy games to play them (there's some free games included, especially in higher tiers). So what's wrong with "they made you pay for each game on top of paying for the steaming service"? You can also get free games on Steam, but it's still a service where you (usually) pay for your games...

Also premium subscription for a couple of years may cost you more than cheap xbox version + game pass.

Quoting: devlandCloud gaming makes as much sense as working full time in the metaverse with a headset on your face all day. It doesn't. Never has.

If you can afford a fast and stable internet connection then you can afford a console or medium end PC.

I got a few games from Stadia via of their rewards program. The rest of the games I play on there are free. No pro or payment card needed.

Oh yeah, forgot about that one :) Not sure how many they are, I think is at least Destiny 2, which can be a real time sink-hole.
