https://www.techpowerup.com/264156/bethesda-removes-games-from-geforce-now-game-streaming-service NVIDIA's GeForce NOW game-streaming service had been hit or miss lately depending on how you look at its current situation, given the fact that Activision-Blizzard removed its game catalog from the GeForce NOW service and the fact that CD Projekt RED announced that Cyberpunk 2077 will be present on the platform. Some moves like the one coming from Activision-Blizzard are taking a tole on the new game streaming platform, while others like the addition of Cyberpunk 2077 are giving the platform users hope to see it become a viable option. To add to the pain, Bethesda Softworks, a maker of many popular titles such as the DOOM, Fallout, Wolfenstein, and The Elder Scrolls series, has decided to pull a big part of its game library from the NVIDIA GeForce NOW game streaming service. In another surprising turn of events, a part of NVIDIA staff announced that Bethesda Softworks will pull most of its games form the GeForce NOW platform, excluding Wolfenstein Youngblood, which will remain playable to give users a chance to experience it with "RTX on". We do not know why big publishers are pulling their game libraries form this platform, so we have to wait for more information in the future.

2nd company to pull out its games. They are pulling because the companies dont like how Nvidia does business. Am i surprised? Nope.
T hose who abuse power, are nothing but scumbags! The challenge of power is how to use it and not abuse it. The abuse of power that seems to create the most unhappiness is when a person uses personal power to get ahead without regards to the welfare of others, people are obsessed with it. You can take a nice person and turn them into a slob, into an insane being, craving power, destroying anything that stands in their way. Affiliate Code: 3T15O1S07G

Looks like maybe Nvidia did not have good contracts in play or failed to meet some sort of requirement

I wonder if we might be about to see another company enter the market or maybe Google is offering piles of cash for exclusive rights.

At the end of the day it looks bad on Nvidia, not the game developers. They are all to make money but it seems that Nvidia greedyness tops all of them up.

Makes you wonder what sort of stuff is in the fine print with their contracts. Are they using the Steam playbook with the service?
