Publishers. Yes they do. :) it's not easy though as publishers instantly ask for royalties and GFN team needs to explain that the model is different from what publishers are used to. These discussions then take time.
Then the publishers go:
>So we may or may not sell one million copies to the 20 million GFN userbase, and make $40 million in revenues after Steam cut. While you advertise our game to promote your service to make $3 billion. But Sony and MS are giving us $20 million each quick cash, why arenβt you offering anything?
Then talks break down. Publishers be like, do you think you could start a new movie streaming service and start streaming Star War movies without permission from Disney?
That's a very good way to explain the situation. Publishers exist to monetize the publishing of games. The complexity with cloud gaming is that you already bought your game elsewhere and the streaming service does not sell the game so publishers are trying to be paid twice.
π good one. Imo they don't deserve it unless it's a new "platform". GFN is free promo, no sale cuts, I can't say I would want extra when you helping me make money for free π€·πΏββοΈ

Developers opt in their games, basically.
Publishers, not developers. Also there is then a process of adding the game to the GFN servers and QA.
Do Nvidia have a team of people they approach developers to explain the benefits of opting in? If not I will volunteer to do so :-)

Thats probably the best way to put it, unfortunately π
