I am requesting the ability to buy claimed games through the app. This is an important feature when a game is on a good sale and a user has already claimed the game previously. With sales coming up for the holiday this should be a feature yesterday.
Also games that are claimed and then later purchased should give 2 licenses for the games to paly as long as the Stadia Pro subscription is still valid. The user has claimed the game with Stadia Pro and has an active Stadia Pro subscription and also purchased the game. This will allow for parents to share games with their children and still play themselves be it single player or multiplayer.
Hey @DarthTater,
it's definitely a good idea, I miss this ability as well to purchase claimed games (for the scenario that maybe one day I don't have Stadia Pro).
In this case though I would recommend to leave this also as feedback to the Stadia developers, so that they can work on such a feature or take it into consideration. Simply tap your profile in the top right corner on stadia.google.com or in the Stadia app and select "feedback".
I second that. There is also a point of supporting developers - for example, Stadia Pro gave me the SteamWorld bundle for free but I love their games and would like to support this indie company by shelling a few bucks their way.
I am waiting on my Pro to lapse to take advantage of this currently.
@FoxMindedGuy One issue is that once you lapse out pro, you lose sweet pro discount price. Unless you intend to buy games at regular price or with little discount.
Stadia had this feature before, but they removed it. I know, because I used the feature before, and kept asking Stadia to bring it back.
I think too many people complained how their purchased games became pro (free) and asked for refunds.
Omg, really? What if I only lapse out to get some games permanently and then get back on Pro right away - will I no longer have access to those deals, despite being a pro member?
