      That and the US being such a large market while having some of the worst internet in the developed world. Last I read only ¼ of the network is fiber

        I live in France, has fantastic fibre, would still hate to play civilisation “in the cloud”.

        There is just no incentive to do so IMO. Even a cheap mobile phone can render well enough, and I just hate any kind of even “possible” lag.

        I play games over 4G happily. Not likely to work very well with game streaming. Especially if everyone else is. I did it during covid and it was ok but input lag was noticeable. SSH dwarf fortress and got into cdda was a better experience.

        As with anything these techbro oligarchs comes up with. Unfortunately they do have the power to bend reality to their twisted wills.

      Would be cool to play civ5 on a long term server.

      I’m thinking something that emails you when its your turn too. Like playing chess over mail.

        Civ over mail. Physical mail. Like those old mail chess games in the times before online chess (use https://lichess.org/ btw <3 ).

        Move a scout, wait 3-5 days for the answer.

          Interesting. I mean it more in the sense that civ is just a long game regardless, so some async maybe help.

            Yeah, there’s a web version of the game if you want to try it out, though it seems to be based on civilization 2 or 3 rather than 5 or 6.

              Unciv is based on civ5 and has support for BNW from the mod list.

              I believe freeciv is civ 1.

      I completed Nier Automata via GeForce Now just fine. Competitive shooters maybe not, but that’s just a subset of gaming anyway.

        Shooters aren’t garbage to people who like them. Different people prefer different games.
