Yeah but a while back they capped your monthly hours for the paid tiers to 100 (i think you pay to keep streaming after). I was easily averaging 3 hours a day as a kid, especially with weekends and summer vacations.
What about Sunshine/Moonlight instead? Assuming they have a good PC themselves.
I am judging a book by it’s cover here, but they said they’re not tech savvy, and asked the question in the post, so my assumption is that they themselves do not own one.
Yeah it’s probably enshittified since I last used it.
I could not spring for a gaming rig but wanted to play BG3.
