NVIDIA’s Cloud Gaming Service GeForce NOW Shamelessly Ignores Linux
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
NVIDIA’s [GeForce NOW][1] cloud gaming service is something promising for gamers who probably don’t have the hardware but want to experience the latest and greatest games with the best possible experience using GeForce NOW (stream the game online and play it on any device you want).
|
||||
|
||||
The service was limited to a few users (in the form of the waitlist) to access. However, recently, they announced that [GeForce NOW is open to all][2]. But, it really isn’t.
|
||||
|
||||
Interestingly, it’s **not available for all the regions** across the globe. And, worse- **GeForce NOW does not support Linux**.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
### GeForce NOW is Not ‘Open For All’
|
||||
|
||||
The whole point of making a subscription-based cloud service to play games is to eliminate platform dependence.
|
||||
|
||||
Just like you would normally visit a website using a web browser – you should be able to stream a game on every platform. That’s the concept, right?
|
||||
|
||||
![][4]
|
||||
|
||||
Well, that’s definitely not rocket science – but NVIDIA still missed supporting Linux (and iOS)?
|
||||
|
||||
### Is it because no one uses Linux?
|
||||
|
||||
I would strongly disagree with this – even if it’s the reason for some to not support Linux. If that was the case, I wouldn’t be writing for It’s FOSS while using Linux as my primary desktop OS.
|
||||
|
||||
Not just that – why do you think a Twitter user mentioned the lack of support for Linux if it wasn’t a thing?
|
||||
|
||||
![][5]
|
||||
|
||||
Yes, maybe the userbase isn’t large enough but while considering this as a cloud-based service – it doesn’t make sense to **not support Linux**.
|
||||
|
||||
Technically, if no one games on Linux, **Valve** wouldn’t have noticed Linux as a platform to improve [Steam Play][6] to help more users play Windows-only games on Linux.
|
||||
|
||||
I don’t want to claim anything that’s not true – but the desktop Linux scene is evolving faster than ever for gaming (even if the stats are low when compared to Windows and Mac).
|
||||
|
||||
### Cloud gaming isn’t supposed to work like this
|
||||
|
||||
![][7]
|
||||
|
||||
As I mentioned above, it isn’t tough to find Linux gamers using Steam Play. It’s just that you’ll find the overall “market share” of gamers on Linux to be less than its counterparts.
|
||||
|
||||
Even though that’s a fact – cloud gaming isn’t supposed to depend on a specific platform. And, considering that the GeForce NOW is essentially a browser-based streaming service to play games, it shouldn’t be tough for a big shot like NVIDIA to support Linux.
|
||||
|
||||
Come on, team green – _you want us to believe that supporting Linux is technically tough_? Or, you just want to say that i_t’s not worth supporting the Linux platform_?
|
||||
|
||||
**Wrapping Up**
|
||||
|
||||
No matter how excited I was for the GeForce NOW service to launch – it was very disappointing to see that it does not support Linux at all.
|
||||
|
||||
If cloud gaming services like GeForce NOW start supporting Linux in the near future – **you probably won’t need a reason to use Windows** (*coughs*).

||||

||||

NVIDIA 的云游戏服务 GeForce NOW 无耻地忽略了Linux
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
NVIDIA的 [GeForce NOW][1] 云游戏服务对于那些可能没有硬件但想使用 GeForce NOW 在最新的最好的游戏上获得尽可能好的游戏体验玩家来说是充满前景的（在线推流游戏，并在任何设备上玩）。
|
||||
|
||||
该服务仅限于一些用户（以等待列表的形式）使用。然而，他们最近宣布 [GeForce NOW 面向所有人开放][2]。但实际上并不是。
|
||||
|
||||
有趣的是，它**并不是面向全球所有区域**。而且，更糟的是 **GeForce NOW 不支持 Linux**。
|
||||
|
||||
![][3]
|
||||
|
||||
### GeForce NOW 并不是向“所有人开放”
|
||||
|
||||
制作一个基于订阅的云服务来玩游戏的目的是消除平台依赖性。
|
||||
|
||||
就像你通常使用浏览器访问网站一样，你应该能够在每个平台上玩游戏。是这个概念吧？
|
||||
|
||||
![][4]
|
||||
|
||||
好吧，这绝对不是火箭科学，但是 NVIDIA 仍然不支持 Linux（和iOS）？
|
||||
|
||||
### 是因为没有人使用 Linux 吗？
|
||||
|
||||
我非常不同意这一点，即使这是某些不支持 Linux 的原因。如果真是这样，我不会在使用 Linux 作为主要桌面操作系统时为 “It’s FOSS” 写文章。
|
||||
|
||||
不仅如此，如果 Linux 不值一提，你认为为何一个 Twitter 用户会提到缺少 Linux 支持？
|
||||
|
||||
![][5]
|
||||
|
||||
是的，也许用户群不够大，但是在考虑将其作为基于云的服务时，**不支持 Linux** 显得没有意义。
|
||||
|
||||
从技术上讲，如果 Linux 上没有游戏，那么 **Valve** 就不会在 Linux 上改进 [Steam Play][6] 来帮助更多用户在 Linux 上玩纯 Windows 的游戏。
|
||||
|
||||
我不想说不正确的说法，但台式机 Linux 游戏的发展比以往任何时候都要快（即使统计上要比 Mac 和 Windows 要低）。
|
||||
|
||||
### 云游戏不应该像这样
|
||||
|
||||
![][7]
|
||||
|
||||
如上所述，找到使用 Steam Play 的 Linux 玩家不难。只是你会发现 Linux 上游戏玩家的整体“市场份额”低于其他平台。
|
||||
|
||||
即使这是事实，云游戏也不应该依赖于特定平台。而且，考虑到 GeForce NOW 本质上是一种基于浏览器的可以玩游戏的流媒体服务，所以对于像 NVIDIA 这样的大公司来说，支持 Linux 并不困难
|
||||
|
||||
来吧，Nvidia，_你想要我们相信在技术上支持 Linux 有困难？_或者，你只是想说_不值得支持 Linux 平台？_
|
||||
|
||||
**总结**
|
||||
|
||||
不管我为 GeForce NOW 服务发布而感到多么兴奋，当看到它根本不支持 Linux，我感到非常失望。
|
||||
|
||||
如果像 GeForce NOW 这样的云游戏服务在不久的将来开始支持 Linux，**你可能没有理由使用 Windows 了**（*咳嗽*）。
|
||||
|
||||
你怎么看待这件事？在下面的评论中让我知道你的想法。
