NVIDIA have today released the Beta for their new Native Linux app for GeForce NOW, available as a Flatpak so it should run across most x86-64 systems. Thanks to NVIDIA I was able to get some early testing in to see how the experience holds up, with NVIDIA providing Ultimate-plan access.
What actually is it? GeForce NOW is a cloud gaming service from NVIDIA. It allows you to play games streamed from their servers to your devices. This includes various free to play games and games you own from your own libraries across Steam, Epic Games Store, Xbox PC Game Pass, Battle.net, Ubisoft Connect and EA. There’s currently over 4,500 games available.
This is the “rent a video card in the cloud” scam right?
Nobody cares NVIDIA.
Kernel anticheat probably does.
Nvidia wants to harvest your organs to feed Huang.
@Marshezezz @cm0002 Relax, they only want to skin you alive to make leather jackets 😂
available as a Flatpak
Sweet, input latency (lag) via my favorite app delivery platform, and tied to a paid cloud account hosted by the shittiest behaving company on the planet! Can’t wait to watch it wither and die.
Nvidia can eat my filthy shorts.
Yea no
Fuck all that ‘play on our computer and pay us’ bullshit. Jensen can eat a bag of dicks and share it with Nadella and Altman.
Don’t fall for NVIDIA scams. You’ll own NOTHING. Make Jensen hurt.
So is the Windows version
Lmao, like I’m ever going to install anything by Nvidia ever again.
Ok
Worst company in gaming can stay here entirely off Linux. We don’t care.
Dump nvidia
I happened to check r/halflife on reddit today and now I feel like I’m going insane
Just tried. Free version, no sub. Works well. I use GeForce Now like twice a year. Not something to sub to all the time. Something to sub like one month a year to when it’s the best option you got
I played all of cyberpunk on a MacBook Air using this back when it came out and it was pretty awesome
I get the hate but if you don’t own a gaming computer it’s pretty good
The hate comes from the fact that these companies don’t want you to own a gaming computer or any computer anymore. These tech companies want you to rent forever and never own anything because owning doesn’t make them all the money.
Combine that with the AI driven memory shortage and NVIDIA moving away from making gaming video cards and cutting their MSPR program it’s clear that they don’t want you to own anything going forward and just be only steaming on their servers and not just having it be an option.
I know, I said I get the hate but I don’t have a gaming computer anyway so it was pretty awesome nonetheless
If ai crashes out we can buy all the cards when the data centers go under and sell them all back
