All they need is an app to be installed on whatever supported devices, and the controllers/accessories will have their adapters I guess. https://www.theverge.com/2020/10/20/21525435/amazon-luna-early-access-cloud-gaming |
Since I've been playing FS 2020 daily I'm now convinced streaming is not for me. At least five times a day the "Connection lost" message pops up. Not much of a problem since the game (like Netflix) caches well ahead and it usually restores within a minute. And if it takes longer you simply lose some detail until the connection can be re-established.
I guess Azure is fine, my ISP is not. It usually happens when 'school' starts nowadays. All the extra online traffic, video back and forth from online schooling puts a lot of strain on the internet. I play early morning and the connection always goes south when 'normal' people get up. If the entire game was streamed my plane would crash every time...
@Permalite yep shit happens. I lost half my Laserdisc collection in a sewage back up. It wasn't a big issue luckily, I had replaced them all with dvd or blu-ray already which are all up on shelves. The old Laserdiscs were sitting on the floor in a moving box in the furnace room. I mainly kept them for the covers which is kinda sucky they are gone now. The insurance paid out anyway and I bought more blu-rays :)
I simply don't 'feel' anything with a digital collection. Can't browse through it, can't touch it, can't hold it. It's not real to me. It's not mine. It's just something I have access to. Not good enough imo.
