I'm using PSNow to play Bloodborne and even on my gigabit connection the input lag is REALLY noticeable, not to mention the awful color banding and compression issues. Granted, Bloodborne runs like shit, but surely it's not this bad on local hardware.

It's cheap, but having to use online connections to play games when online is variable depending on where you are.
Second, there will always be a market for physical copies, since filesharing. Also playing a physical copy is always going to be more solid then a digital download, and hardware memory hasn't advanced far enough to justify the sheer data sizes that are only increasing as more games are released.
It's honestly more convenient sifting through a bunch of discs then dealing with digital download shit at the moment. Especially since downloads and installations via disc will ALWAYS be faster and don't require an online connection, so disc sales will always reach more people of varying home, area and technology conditions.

Many people thought console FPSes would never take off, but they added aim assist and dumbed down the mechanics.
They'll just account for input lag, like Smash does now, for example.
As for "why", it's because it's convenient to developers. Kill piracy, kill used games, kill mods and forcefully move you to a new game the moment it comes out rather than letting you play old ones you like. It's every big corporation's wet fucking dream.

People think it's convenient, that's why they use streaming services at all in the first place.
Netflix is kind of smart to make exclusive content available on their own platform, but now, we have everyone doing the exact same shitty thing, so now we have 19 different competing 'standards'.
Have you seen those creepy Netflix tweets? The one where they ask about "the 23 people who watched X movie everyday for the past 12 days, who hurt you?".

Streaming gets pushed hard by publishers because it's the ultimate "games as a service" cancer, it makes players fully dependent on the publisher with zero options, not even piracy is possible, and publishers can extract continuous payments and terminate access to the game at any time for any reason.

Ultimate DRM and anti-piracy for the subscription stream-only model. How many Netflix originals can you make copies of files to and watch on your leisure anytime without an internet connection? And how many of these shows are actually good. Essentially by driving entertainment to be stream only and subscription based they create artificial scarcity without piracy to an already addicted consumer base. Which means as physical formats becomes impossible to read as they deteriorate and digital is full of piracy, then stream only is the only way you're going to see your movies from now on goyim. And soon you'll get bored of your old films and you want something new. So you have to tolerate our pozzed media because we're the only ones with the money to make them.

That's probably a bad example, given that anyone could use a capture program like OBS to make a copy of virtually anything on Netflix, providing that they have the appropriate storage space.
>How many of these are actually good?
That's got nothing to do with the business model, unless you're suggesting that they'll deliberately try and shit out garbage tv shows and/or game titles just because they can. It seems like Netflix shotguns a million projects to the wall just to see what sticks because they want to gradually weed out content from third parties and replace it with their own bullshit. With a streaming platform, Sony or Valve or Nintendo, and of course any given publisher that provides them with content, will just have more control over the content they provide (i.e. fuck you we can remove this game from circulation and there's nothing you can do about it; we can censor whatever the fuck we want and there's nothing you can do to circumvent it because this version is the only "international version" of the game and there is no physical copy that can be ripped and altered; etc).

Depends on how you want to solve it. Propose legislation that says consumers should keep what they pay for (you can't make my $60 game unplayable two years down the line, must provide private servers or end-of-life plan), or let consumers drive sales of online-only games.

Hopelessly, but they do it and they will do it. Will it kill the industry? I doubt it, but even if it did, the publishers would be happy because nobody pirated their games anymore.
The push will happen. It's a matter of when. I'm expecting, two console generations from now, Microsoft to have an experiment by launching a "stream-only" model of that Gen's Xbox for $100-$150, and go from there.

Nobody does. It's largely all just engineered marketing to push people into "going along with the crowd" and get them to adopt an inferior and broken technology because it's more profitable and advantageous to the corporate entities and sounds good at the investor calls. It's like the bullshit fight with microtransactions where everybody thought it was fine, or a good idea that would provide the funding for better games, and the way of the future - until they actually got established and exploited to the point where the fucking government of all people has to step in to curb their kikery or at least get their lb of flesh in taxes. Another example, but to a lesser degree, is the shift to digitial distribution - which in principal is far superior to physical disks - but comes with an unacceptable loss of consumer protections when you let these shitheads trap you in a walled garden of DRM and closed hardware - reducing you to paying for a limited time, revocable for any reason, and terms subject to change without notice - licensing to an account (which you also don't own, but are only granted revocable access to). And for all that loss of consumer protections and pissing money into the wind, we've gained absolutely none of the promised benefits - such as lower priced games and more extras (like art, music, themes, production videos, etc). Game prices have gone up, and rather than getting extra content - they've chopped out even more shit from the core game to sell a-la-carte.
With microtransactions and (eventually) with digital streaming - you are/you will eventually see consumer pushback once it's too late - because the shit doesn't work and it's too late to reverse course. Digital distribution though, yeah - that's going to stick around and people will continue to defend it because it does offer convenience to people who don't actually play their games, but flip through multiple titles to kill time like people a generation before used to flip through their 250 channels of cable and then complain that there's nothing on. You can bet your ass there would be something worth watching if they had to get their fat fucking asses out of the recliner and flip the stations manually rather than just spam channel-up on the remote.

I hate that this wigger was too stupid to use something clearly visible to demonstrate console input lag. Many contemporary games have animation blending systems (Uncharted 2 had this, for fuck's sakes) that intentionally blur the line between an idle animation and a running/walking one. As though that weren't bad enough, he uses a fucking analogue stick without showing us the side view, so the viewer can't verify his measurements are accurate. THEN he measures camera movement (even though many modern games have "dead zones" for the characters to move without forcing the camera to move) as some kind of relevant factor.
I'm glad someone stupid enough to buy all these games actually did something, but he did it so poorly he may as well not have bothered.

The only means of securing their ability to arbitrarily fuck over their customers and resell them software they already own, which is the entire point of the You don't own nothing lol also you can't sue us lol parts of essentially ALL eulas which are copy pasted from eachother, is to force end users to stream everything from their hardware so that it can be actually be claimed as a form of licensing use and leasing.

Pick high resolution and high refresh rate monitors (120+ Hz). That way it drastically increases the bandwidth requirements for streaming. A lot of streaming services are relying on the fact 1080p 60fps will continue to be the standard.

The only people who think that are the ones who directly gain something from it or people who want streaming to be their main source of income. The truth is its eally an "Emperors new clothes scenario". Streaming is not the future. Some have filled a very tiny niche with is profitable and every idiot thinks they can be the new pewdiepie or some shit. Some anon posted about a survey conducted in an elementary school in england and guess what most wanted to do after growing up? Thats right streaming. They even sell streaming kits nowadays to further bank on those pitiful hopes that they might blow up eventually. The target audience of a streamer will always be kids because most adults dont care about some sperg looking at his camera and talk about boring inane shit. If youd take away the ability to earn money by streaming youd see a rapid decline in these channels because lets face it. It was always about the money. Youd have a situation like it was back then with that faggot Angry Joe who cried to his fanbase when it was made apparant that he might lose youtube shekels and income. They are literal garabge humans with no value whatsoever and if by some miracilious chance they couldnt stream anymore, most wont ever have a normal job because they dont have nothing to show on their cv except sitting on their ass all day shouting at themselves.

You have to consider the specs the general public is using. When they're watching YouTube, Twitch, playing on consoles, indie games on laptops they don't need anything more than 1080p 60 Hz television screens.
Higher than 1080p and 60 fps gaming is the exclusively PC.

The only thing that makes sense is that people believe it'll make gaming easier for them. That is, they won't have to worry about losing or destroying their discs, because it'll all be stored somewhere. They look at Steam and want to replicate that.
However, they don't look at Steam and realize that Gaben is a pos and will fuck them at a moment's notice. They don't think that some company somewhere can just remove their ability to play their game at a later time for various reasons without paying them back. Going fully digital is fucking retarded, because it takes too much power out of the hands of the consumer and gives it to some faceless devs faggots somewhere.
Having said that, I have purchased digital only games in the past, but I recognize that my vidya can be taken away whenever. I try and go physical when I can, but that's not always possible and especially with handhelds.

streaming doesn't make sense for people with bandwidth caps especially if you have to share such a connection and the other users in the house stream lots of movies and TV shows or even just watching a good amount of you-tube at 720p will eat through a terabyte fairly quick. forget about long gaming sessions at 1080p with a good bitrate

On what fucking planet is this true. Tech gets their money same way that videogame companies do, by getting people acclimated to paying progressively more and more for a worse and worse product.
