Probably not much of a stretch to expect a Amazon Luna (streaming) version of that game. “Too hardware hungry for you? No problem, just sign up to our game streaming service.”
Huh. So if games are just horribly optimized and hardware costs a fortune, it will push more people to cloud/streaming their games. The corporations just keep winning. What a wonderful timeline we live in.
FWIW, Amazon bought the James Bond IP last year (and also owns MGM Studios as of 2022). The relationship between this game and Amazon may be nothing more than that.

Indie games it is then.
If that means more stuff like Stardew Valley then I’m in.
And no doubt an optimized version of the game will exist but only at the enterprise level for streaming providers.
Yep its pretty gross.
Also why they love the ai bubble. They can buy up all the hardware and price us all out.
I foresee in 10 years the majority of homes not having a computer at all or a dumb terminal connected to Amazon. Hell it probably already is that way
Hey, Alexa…
The scary part is it will become the norm and we will be the weird ones who want to actually own their pc and control their data.
Ah well
Ah, induced demand. A cornerstone of capitalism.

Which is why I was very surprised to see the Bond movies coming the Netflix. What’s that all about?
Why the five screens worth of breaks?
