Thanks for the comment. I'm Glad its working for you. Is it your main game streamer of choice? As far as amount of games I couldn't agree more and sadly they just got rid of a lot of games 😢
Nice overview - interestingly they seem to have now scrapped most of the channels and rolled the retro and family games into Luna+ which makes a lot more sense overall and at least bulks out the game library a bit more. They seem to be one of the only streaming services that managed to strike a deal with Falcom for the Ys and Trails games as well which I think boosts the value of the sub a bit.
Love your profile pic! Have you checked out the new Sonic Prime on Netflix yet?! So almost a whole month now I was either super sick and when I wasn't I was traveling. Figures during that time Luna made these changes and I missed them LOL So I appreciate your comment so I checked it out and here what I think..They lost so many games it just didn't make sense to have 3 small channels of games so like you said it now bulks up the one channel. And honestly I think it might be for the better because in theory its great to have options and the a la carte style... but if you didn't subscribe to family or retro you felt like you were missing out and if you did subscribe to all 3 it was a bit too pricey for something that isn't fully ironed out yet in my opinion. So now with just Luna+ for a "small" $10 a month I think makes more sense. Why they kept jackbox games is silly because you can get those games a dime a dozen most of the time so $5 a month is just not worth it. They prob signed a contract with them that hasn't run out yet would be my guess. And it seems like they are pushing ubisoft+ a bit more. Although I think if they could get a better deal with ubisoft to lower it by a few bucks a month would benefit everyone. And I still think they need to work in the Amazon games game library into the Luna app and just have one cohesive library. So all the free prime gaming games playable on amazon game launcher would work on Luna would be a big step forward. And they say you can buy games on ubisoft store to play on Luna but they need to work on their own store and or let you link other accounts like epic games or steam and if a game is playable on Luna it will show in your Luna collection...Just my 2 cents LOL
@@TheNerdCircle They are also advertising that if you purchase a UbiSoft game it will also be available on Luna too so I guess that's something as well. I was mostly curious as I just got my Husband a Fire stick for Xmas and set it up so it could run RetroArch but wanted to see if Luna was worth it as well but most videos were a year + old. I've seen ep 1 of Prime but I want to see the rest! Just currently lack a Netflix sub.
@@RebeccaGunn Yes I noticed that they mentioned the ubisoft purchases would show on Luna so that's interesting and I will have to test it for a future video. How did the Firestick/RetroArch work out? My 2 year old loves Sonic so I have seen Prime too many times to count LOL For whenever you get Netflix back I'm not sure if you know but they have gotten into gaming as well. Currently its just mobile gaming that you can play on your phone/tablets but I will have a video coming soon that they supposedly want to venture into platform/PC Gaming so I'm curious to see where they take it.
Good idea, but setting up to be able to use it is insurmountable even though I'm in the uk. My amazon account is linked to this usa or I have nothing working to change it and teach premium account to play
They need to add some basic features that every other platform has. Time Played stat per game... also some form of Achievement system and I really do not like how they have their store set up. I want to just buy individual games. Just my 2 cents.
Thanks for the comment! Your 2 cents are completely valid. Sometimes its just the small things that matter. I 100% agree with you. I love seeing my time played when I load up a game on Steam and at the same time seeing my achievements. The store UI isn't horrible. I've seen worse but It could use some improvements and I do wish you could buy games at a discount and those games were always yours to keep even if you are not subscribed to any of the channels. If they integrated the Amazon Games launcher/Amazon Prime gaming games into Luna so you could see your library of owned games inside of Luna I think it would make it a slightly better experience.
Yes I completely agree that cloud gaming is currently a mess and will hopefully get better in the not too distant future. Stay tuned for more gaming and streaming videos to come!
Yes although I do subscribe to ubisoft+ and enjoy it I think the price is a bit steep. And i still think that Luna could have found a way to partner with Ubisoft better to lower the price if you sign up with Luna just like they had the "founders" price there should be like a Luna Ubisoft+ "Founders" price. Save a few bucks per month and entice people to sign up. Maybe i'm the only one that thinks that would be a good idea.
first off rip stadia. secondly i cant see anyone reasonably trying to get every group that just kinda seems dumb. like 2 maybe but any more than that there are better options. id like to say the point about them giving away PC games and not cloud games on their service is valid considering the target audience. personally I didn't even know about the discounts so that's not the biggest L for them imo. but relatively speaking its still an L.
Hey, Yes the sting of losing stadia is going to take a bit to get over. Yes I think Luna slimming down their options is a good idea. Well hopefully either Luna or another competitor can come close to what we had with Stadia and possibly make something even better. Time will tell. 😁
Yes, I guess it depends on which plan/s you have. I don't disagree with you but I'm currently paying $5 a month for Luna+ so $60 a year I don't think you could build a gaming PC for that price but I get where you're coming from. 😄
It worked GREAT for me.
No complaints here. It just needs some more games.

Just subbed. Happy New Year!
Thanks! Same to you!

That's not good. Hopefully you can get it straightened out one of these days but it doesn't seem like they are putting much effort into it lately.

Need more games
Yes I agree! But I honestly dont see them being around much longer unless they make some changes..like opening it up to more devices for one.
I tried Luna and still preferred Stadia over Luna, but now it seems I might have to give Luna another go. Unfortunate.
Yes I agree it is very unfortunate but hopefully Luna will continue to improve.
Thanks for the review. I'll stick with steam and emulation
Yes I completely agree that cloud gaming is currently a mess and will hopefully get better in the not too distant future. Stay tuned for more gaming and streaming videos to come!
Figures that Ubisoft is the most expensive "channel"
Yes although I do subscribe to ubisoft+ and enjoy it I think the price is a bit steep.

I subscribed just to help to get you to your goal… I don’t watch mutch UA-cam
Thanks for watching! And I appreciate that, Every sub helps! 😁
No UA-cam what kind of evil person are you?!

The money you spend there in 1 year I can build a cheap gaming pc and get even more games for free.
