That would be another death blow to PC gaming. The biggest draw of PC gaming is the freedom to spice things up with mods next to cheap sales. The whole PC gaming is affordable spiel comes from cheaper games. Not renting them from the cloud.

Streaming has already been tried on PC and rejected.

And purists won't like the extra lag, streaming artifacts etc.

The increased prices are coming to consoles as well. Whenever the PC gets screwed over, there is a trickle-down impact to consoles that literally use the same PC technology.

There is just a pricing delay due to supply/contract agreements... But I would expect sticker prices increase by hundreds of dollars for consoles... Perhaps renting from the cloud might one day be the only financially viable option?
