It is SO obvious how so little attention is given to Stadia. So few AAA games: not a single top10 multiplayer game except PubG that requires bots to fill matches. Multiplayer on Stadia is a joke: empty rooms, yet still selling add-ons to games you can't play for a complete lack of players - is this legal?!
We got a AAA game for free, that's something, but does it bring more players? No way. They will pay $10 Pro to play it, then leave as there is so little else to do. Stadia is clearly a more budget game, single player experience.
Staff are leaving Google's Stadia: who wouldn't? The future of it is grim at best.
Hi @Kameleon,
Thanks for sharing your opinion.
I think you have a fair point with missing some large online multiplayer games like Call of Duty.
But there are more and more games comming. I think most "pro gamers" are not going to play on cloud services because of the added latency, so I am not sure it is the adding competive games is the way to go right now. Sure cloud gaming is great but it does add some possible latency (which rules out crossplay if done right)
Paying for Pro isn't mandatory, you can play your bought games for free.
Sure you are missing out on 4K and surround but you can play games without having a subscription.
Staff leaving Google Stadia, name one company which doesn't have leaving staff?
Great names leave Blizzard, Intel, AMD, Apple all the time. That is just what happens.
Do I know the future of Stadia? No I don't but I really enjoy playing Stadia right now.
Hope you will enjoy Stadia as I do and hope the games keep comming with crossplay support for now. ![]()
If you want to play high profile latency dependent shooters a X-Box Series S is only $300 (when you can find one). Games that are not as dependent on latency should be fine for cross-play via Stadia. More games would be really great for sure but I think it is getting there. Hopefully it keeps rolling and it is a great system for people who don't want to buy a console, build a computer, or have a Nintendo.
1. If you're mentioning latency: it means Stadia has a problem = a minus point.
2. If all players on Stadia experience the same latency issue, it's hardly a problem.
3. Only highly competitive players care so dearly about latency: I do not.
4. AAA shooters are what bring in the real money: Stadia does not. Stadia hardly advertises for anyone. Stadia is tertiary to even mobile gaming.
5. Putting 4K behind a paywall only further exacerbates Stadia's problem. Total lack of players, and having to pay for something cannot be helping any of us.
6. Staff leaving other studios is hardly an issue because those companies are MASSIVE in comparison to Stadia that clearly so few people care about. Leaving a relatively uninteresting platform only further adds to Google's problem running this.
7. Whether you enjoy Stadia or not is irrelevant. It's whether millions enjoy it or not that counts for longevity, support etc.
8. Asking me to buy an XBox or PS5 etc. to play high profile games further tells us that Stadia is a secondary or tertiary device to buy = less relevant platform = negative for the ones investing in it.

Google need to step forward and be transparent with its consumers. How solid is Stadia's future? Give us a solid roadmap.
Because of marketing people, who are professional liars and sell their soul for money.
And they don't have to worry about punishment, if they stop lying, because that is actually a lie that keeps them stuck in their own self created self punishing system of self chained suffering.
And most people become angry at that, because they don't know how much these professional liars are suffering and how deep the pain goes when someone forcibly denies their own eternal nature and infinite worth / true value of being. And they think there should be some sort of punishment for them, because they look happy, as if they are gaining from their malpractice, but they are far from happy. They can hardly enjoy the food they buy. And then someone gives them food for free, out of pure honest kindness, and they suddenly realise that that was the best food they have ever eat, beause they didn't have to lie in order to eat it, and it causes all the cells of their body to fully receive the benefit of who they truely are.
This is why you never have to worry about the eternal nature and infinite value of who you truely are. You will never be able to destroy it, no matter how much you fight it. Because it is a very meager kind of power that is the one who contradicts themselves.
