For the last 2 years I am tackling cloud gaming.
Tried it first on Stadia (Rip) and was impressed at the time. Enjoyed some games I missed in the past like Doom 2016, Eternal, Mk11 and others.
But although I've played in 4k@60hz nothing stood out in the graphics department. Was on par with what I have seen on last gen consoles or older PCs.
Long story short, Stadia closed and I moved back to my switch with that awful, underpowered architecture.
Could not stand the thing, I am at times wondering why I have sold my WiiU to buy this shit but anyway the deal was done.
Enter Geforce Now. At first I took the cautious way in and played on the Priority tier for while, where you get a RTX 2080/3080 gpu. Nothing spectacular but I could play again some good games at a decent graphic level.
Last month I bit the bait and leveled up to Ultimate tier with it's RTX 4080 equivalent gpu. FUCKIN SHIT this is a jump!!!
I am playing Witcher 3 the wild hunt at 1440p@120hz, everything maxed out, DLSS 3, vsync on etc on my 65 Oled and it is breathtaking.
Also restarted Crysis 3 Remastered because it looks like a different game now. I am glad I did not finish Cyberpunk on Stadia so now I can play it on the 4080.
Now I know that the RTX 4080 is fucking expensive but seeing what it can do, I would argue that it deserves the money.
