Perception and Reassurance... New Players

So Ive reached out to some more local friends and family. Managed to get 3 of my cousins and a few of their close friends to try Stadia.

7 out of 8 have quit using the platform within 2 days. 

So I gathered some feedback. 

Chloe -" I'm confused by it. There's no guidance and I don't get it??? It loads and you game but there's no community interaction it seems?."

Jaye -" Why market it to YouTube and says it's gaming for everyone but the best gaming experience requires a controller and Chromecast ultra ? This is stupid. I payed for PRO ONLY TO FIND OUT I CANT GET 4K...my mouse is sluggish on half the games and theres no **bleep** support. Why wasn't I warned about not having 4K? Perhaps they can warn people it runs like trash on PC systems"

David -" I have steam with 600 titles in my library. There's nothing compelling keeping me here. Maybe if they had some original titles but what's the point?"

Joey -"It's good tech. Streams nice. I just don't get why they market this as a console for TV but leave all the other chrome devices and PCS as secondary units. There's no guidance on how to gauge compatibility with anything. It's like a but of tech guys with no gaming experience for together and thought this was a good idea"

Joey 2 -" They need to relaunch, refund and rethink what they are doing. Need original titles. 

Taylor -" it's not bad. I will stay on it because I have a Nintendo Switch. I don't get to play many PC based titles. 

Tasha -" I don't get it. I feel like it's a platform about to die. Maybe I'd use it if I didn't feel like at any moment Google was going to pull the plug??"

Dave -" has potential but it's been around for two years to show more. I don't think it's evolved to where it needs to be. Change of leadership perhaps. Get some people in who actually game and know what gamers need"

 

This was rough to hear considering I've been a fan since launch. I've brought attention to a lot of people on the platform. Even bought controller packages for some. The ratio is about the same 2/10 stay.

@Chiram Just want to say thanks for sharing your feedback in a reasonable, constructive manner. I've tried introducing Stadia to a few of my friends and had similar result. I think what your friends mentioned above do have many valid points. Stadia definetely needs some work done to be accepted into general mainstream audience.

Yeah the mainstream is accustomed to a certain product and platform style. 

They need to just create a Google Social. Integrate Stadia right into the side bar and mini games etc.

For what it's worth, I actually like Google+. It's the only social media I can stand since there were no ads, and I was able to engage people with the same interest as I do.
