[ANN] PLAYKEY: DECENTRALIZED CLOUD GAMING PLATFORM

[loup]

If a gamer does not have a powerful PC, then he does not have licenses for new games. How will this issue be resolved.

there is no issue to be resolved?

he does not need to buy a powerful pc, he only need to have the games he want to play and the playkey streaming service. thats all.

so the performace of the computer doesnt effect on the gaming when using tha plattform?

I guess the only think you need is a good Internet to play the games.

Good Internet and hardware which is able to run the stream, but that shouldn't be too hard, at least not as hard as getting a high end gaming pc.

That's what I mean, because otherwise this project has no sense.

in order to play he would always need a game license to play, playkey just saves him money by not having to upgrade his computer in order to play the latest game

Well, to play online games then the license will have to buy

Playkey is turning into professional sports
for the new generation. Playkey will change the games

WoW, now play key will be almost as popular as utrust, it's getting on track, this will become a good investment in a couple of weeks, and have a successful ICO, although i'm one of those that has a good rig to play any game, i think this will get new people and casual ones to play the more hardcore games without paying too much, the technology is already there, now we must manage it properly.

Lets see if Playkey can get a wide audience and can scale accordingly before we start counting our profits

Let's . but I think at the moment all the prospects for this are there. Fees go well and the idea is excellent.

The Idea is good, but many competitive idea's in the gaming market. Everyone trying to claim their spot. Also Nvidia their biggest competitor. Many things need to go right before it can be a succes

Wait Nvidia is a competitor? Do they have a cloud based streaming service or what do you mean by that? Or that they will produce cheaper graphics cards?

Yes Nvidia is a competitor. They created a cloud gaming service. It is called Geforce Now -> https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/products/geforce-now/

You have to buy the games through e.g. Steam. If you subscribe to Playkey, you only rent the hardware power, but not any games. I think Playkey has some "free" games, but especially new games, you have to buy yourself-

Which game platforms we can use besides Steam, when i scrolled trough their site i haven't Origin where you can buy EA games, are they maybe looking for more partnerships later?

he does not need to buy a powerful pc, he only need to have the games he want to play and the playkey streaming service. thats all.

And even some games as I understood it will not be necessary to buy

There you can play only in the games that they have on the site (since these games are installed on their gaming computers), and games need to be purchased to have a license key.

Playkey is less expensive than a competitive gaming computer, so you can easily buy games you want with the economy you make by not buying this computer, you will realise a lot of economy in the future thanks to playkey.

But more expensive than other cloud gaming platforms :-)

I think PLAYKEY will definitely specify the minimum system requirements to  run the PLAYKEY service.

Since it is basically a only a stream, you don't need much. So if you are able to watch youtube videos etc, you will be able likely to play games with it. The only thing you need is a good internet connection ... and then you just hope, that the PlayKey streaming pc has also a fast connection and is somewhere near you :-)

Gaming is always booming. Curious to see how this will combine with this project!

Games are already some kind of cult at the moment. I think everything will only develop

is there any info that you can maybe link your steam account with their service ? to make a license key check?

would be really great, dont you think so ?

I suppose you can link your Steam account. On the website, it is always written, which games you can play from which sources (e.g. Steam).

[alexsmalex]

Well, I'm thinking of connecting my steam record so you can

So what's the point with playkey - you rent the hardware to stream play your own games, or they will also have a renting game system along with the monthly subscription?

I don't think so. Playkey let you just rent the hardware ... you still have to purchase the games yourself. Renting games is a whole new area that is difficult to takle.

[pynetx]

Games subscription will be provided by you guys or user will able to load his own game on the playkey system?

I read that there will be only a list of games. Allowing to download games to the system to all users is not safe

It's better to provide subscription in the platform itself but consistently updated catalogue is must then.

What do you mean? everyone is entitled to buy a new game if they can afford it

Only thing that matter is internet connection, if computer's performance affect the gaming experience while playing with playkey there's no point on using it, don't you think?

There would be some issues with renting games. I dont think you can charge someone a fee just for playing the game, that would mean a violation since you would earn money on behalf of developers.
