It never ceases to amaze me how much humans are resistant to change. I know streaming isn't for everyone, just as many people prefer going to the store and buying a disc, versus buying a game digitally. But, the fact that digital games, streaming services, and whatever comes next exist is not reason to say that the future of gaming looks bad. It's just change. If it's not positive change, it won't succeed. If it does succeed, that'll mean it has fulfilled a need or want of a good number of gamers. Where's the harm in that? In no case does it necessarily mean the elimination of traditional gaming. If it does bring an end to it, that just means it is so much better that the demand for traditional stuff dried up.
