So, again, it's not simple. If it were simple we wouldn't be shitposting about it on the internet.
I think it's pretty simple.
- Nvidia says they're building a Streaming Service "GeForce Now", says it's gonna test it and asks a bunch of publishers to be part of it
- They say sure, go ahead, you can use this, this and that game
- Nvidia at some point decides to go out of Beta, asks $8 per month to play TOP AAA GAMES from their servers, tells publishers "LOL u get nuthing, customers already paid for these games on Steam or your own Online stores"
- Some publishers like Capcom, EA, Konami, Remedy, Rockstar, Square Enix jump off board right there
- Some other publishers like Activision Blizzard and Bethesda that were a bit slower realize what's going on, go "U WOT, m8?" and tell Nvidia "Take our games off your service, or else."
- Nvidia realizes that there is no chance in hell they could possibly win a legal challenge for offering a GAME STREAMING SERVICE for a monthly fee Streaming TOP AAA GAMES from various publishers that they have no ownership of or distribution rights to from their servers without an agreement or commercial license with said publishers, complies with the requests and takes down all their games
End of story. Oh wait:
- Retards go wild on the RPGCodex claiming JUSTICE must be done and Nvidia should SUE all the Ebil publishers instead for making use of their legal rights and protecting their copyrighted content
