minus-squareSavvyWolf@pawb.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up46·8 months ago We anticipate that this change will reduce average wait times for free users over time. Sure will. (Also, TIL that GeForce NOW has a free tier. I assumed it was one of those “pay $10 a month” kinda things even at the lowest level)
minus-squarem-p{3}@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up22·8 months agoBecause more players will leave the queue by closing the ads in disgust.
minus-squareOphioparma@feddit.delinkfedilinkarrow-up4·8 months agoHa, They just won’t count watching ads as waiting time.
minus-squarehelenslunch@feddit.nlOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up11·edit-28 months agoI mean it practically doesn’t. I tried it a few times and the queue was so long that I just gave up. And now they want you to watch ads.
minus-squarepumpkinseedoil@feddit.delinkfedilinkarrow-up8·8 months agoHonestly fair to show ads in the free tier. They could also simply not have a free tier.
minus-squareCoki91@dormi.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·8 months agoI mean, the more revenue free players can generate, the more reason they have to keep them in If you otherwise think queues will be shorter because people will quit over disgust of ads boy do I have news for you
