NVIDIA’s first GeForce NOW update of 2026 mentions new games but “forgets” to mention the new 100-hour cap NVIDIA opened 2026 with a GeForce NOW Thursday
You are at work for usually 8-9 hours a day. Some games require so little attention you can play while at work. Like EVE Online mining could be optimised to only giving a control input a few times an hour. Isk/h would be shit, but it’s not zero.
Almost 4 hours if you only count weekdays. In other words, more than poeople should, debatably, have to work to survive.
I lean towards anti-work for the masses, but anyways, if that amount of time should be enough to survive-on; Does anything else, besides, unavoidably, sleep, ANY one thing, deserve that much of your time?
Honestly, I would bet they are having issues meeting demand, or AI demand is high-enough and pays enough to cause a supply issue, what with RAM prices and non-sensical gibberish I won’t bother finding to have a second bit for that “and”, right now. I was surprised to learn the GeForceNOW rates are still the-same-as-or-better than when I last looked-into it, a few years-ago.
EDIT: Math, verbiage to adjust to corrected figures, and another paragraph or two, Sorry.
Sub is tied to an account that needs to own the games. There might be a way around to trick it, but I’d be surprised if you didn’t need to buy the games twice with that method. You can extend the amount by 15 hours for $3 or $6 based on performance requirements.

The anti corpo part of me: That’s utter bullshit!
The middle aged part of me: That’s… 3 hours a day… That much gaming can’t be healthy.

Sometimes I forget that I’ve left a game open overnight

I’m gonna need to see that math
4 weeks and change gets … well fuck, I messed-up by a factor-of-two somewhere.
Some people have jobs that involve gaming for more than 3 hours. This is going to actively affect how some people work.
Fuck Nvidia and fuck Ai
Those people don’t stream their gaming sessions from remote servers. They have their own gaming PCs.
That or a second-subscription would be worth-it to them. Still five years to equal the cost of a high-end gaming rig.
