So it isn’t cloud gaming, but it is game streaming and the streams are peer-to-peer. That stream is then sent using low-latency networking to the connected device, which renders the images. Rainway captures the screen in real time and encodes it to a stream. When you launch a game via Rainway, it’s running on your gaming PC at home.
Rainway has also launched its Android app. While free may be good for getting attention, Rainway still has to figure out how to use money. It took Apple a while to approve the app, but it’s finally ready to go. And this service doesn’t use the cloud, which would be very costly, as those other services are likely to find out. All you have to do is download the Rainway app from the App Store, and you can stream games from services like Steam to your iOS devices. (Which has happened to me once.But CEO Andrew Sampson, who once upon a time was homeless, believes he’s got the right price: free. Except maybe the second, if the dev confirms that they intend the copy to be DRM-free. If there exist any ways to circumvent the others, discussing them is probably not allowed here anyway. The first one is true DRM-free games on Steam. * Steam CEG, or custom executable generation, which I think means that the game executable that Steam installs is tied to the hardware and won't work if you bring it to any other hardware. * Steam Wrapper DRM, which according to its details (linked here) says it obfuscates some of the game's stuff. If a game depends on Steam for multiplayer, it probably belongs in this category.
* games that don't run (or don't run right) because they make Steam API calls and if Steam isn't running they fall flat on their face. install management, cloud saves, trading cards, etc.) * "soft DRM", which is basically no DRM, aside from just the conveniences/perks of the Steam platform (e.g. Steam has four forms of DRM, from what I understand: "digital rights management", or basically copyright controls). I mean, you're essentially asking to circumvent Steam being a means of DRM (i.e. If you can't, ask the publisher to release it on a DRM-free store. If these don't work, buy the game from a DRM-free source. (For example, don't start Steam, or exit Steam - not just the window, but make sure you right-click the tray icon for this.) It may or may not run, depending on whether it requires Steam.ģ. You can try running the game executable while Steam is off. If so, they may tell you how to get it working.Ģ. Check the web to see whether the game is known to be DRM-free on Steam. Is it possible to put my games somewhere else, and never think of steam again? Some possibilities:ġ.
