Hey guys,
so I posted here a few weeks ago, with the idea of donating a gaming PC to a nursing home. I talked to someone in charge there today, this might actually happen.
Thing is, to try this out I would probably have to supply the software (Microsoft Flight Simulator being the most important now.)
As I understand it, you can only use the Flight Simulator with a Microsoft account. If I let them use my own account, that would mean a PC with my logged in account would be standing around there in the open, for anyone to access.
Does anyone have any idea how to approach this in a safe manner? I wish I could just buy a physical copy and let them have it for a while, before they buy their own. But even those need a connected Microsoft account nowadays, it seems.
Was also thinking of buying a used Xbox Series S (this might become the long term solution anyway), but same issue with the account, I believe.
(Man, modern gaming keeps finding ways to be annoying sometimes.)
P.S. If you have great game recommendations for octogenarians, bring them on!
tbh i would just pirate and block network
I’d recommend just making a new Microsoft account for them, then leaving the username/password with the staff, ideally someone in their IT crew.
