>It costs money to download the platform itself
>it's a monthly fee

it only lets you rent games

There is a cheap way to rent but it is a lootbox that gives you a random rental

it has to be on while playing and its a massive resource hog because its mining me bitcoins

>it's a streaming service only unless you pay a monthly premium to download the games on your PC to play them

>comes with a game-making software, and your monthly fees are subtracted if you make games.
This way an endless stream of shit is created by the children who join.

>it only lets you rent games

But that's exactly like Steam, Origin etc..
You don't own a game, only a license of it.

>all loading screens in your games are replaced with ads

>>379065725

rentals in the truest sense where it uninstalls after 2 weeks unless you renew

>>379065725
I think he means in the old fashion sense. You'd rent the game for $60, but after a certain amount of days, it would be "returned" and the only way to get it back would be to pay again.

you have to pay a tax every time you buy a new game that is equal to 3/4 of the costs to buy it regardless of price

Only games the service distributes is early access.

So a console?

Whenever there's an update, you need to reinstall the entire platform from scratch.

Over 10GB

There's a memory leak in it, and it keeps growing until the entire thing just crashes

It records your usage data and sends it to advertisers without giving you any options to switch it off.

windows store does this though.
fortunately, they're still not jewish enough to restrict the amount of times you can download something

I wish they'd actually make a digital distribution platform that crushed steam while still being extremely anti consumer. maybe I could finally stop playing video games if they jewed them up to 11

Same here, it was great because there were some good games on there, but the latency and other streaming issues fucked it up

It was great if you had a shitty computer that couldn't play anything

Took me a while to see how that trick worked even from this perspective.

t. homo sapiens

you download the entire, uncompressed game at a fixed rate of 123kb/s

yet when you go to run the game, instead of running off the files you downloaded, it streams them from a remote zimbabwe server

>>379066260
Anyone with any knowledge of networking could see Onlive would never work, at least until the global infrastructure is fucking beyond what we have access to now. It was a terrible idea, and I tried PSNow as well. Still not playable.

It would also make all the server connection issues for always-on games even fucking worse.
