Lackluster Chromecast Support

So I keep hearing google getting praise for updating the web ui. I suppose that’s great for those who play that way but many of us play exclusively through the chromecast.  The UI experience through chromecast is very bad. I have a huge catalog of games buried in the back that I never play because they’re a pain to get to and I’ve forgotten about them. They need to improve the experience. I’m not really interested in hearing about the CCU hardware limitations. This the platform they’ve chosen to support and continue to market though promotions like RE and Cyberpunk.  If the hardware is limited than the UI should be streamed rather than ran directly on the CCU. Either way that’s google’s problem to figure out. Please take this as constructive criticism. The experience can be a lot better and google is more than capable of improving it.

I agree. UI should be updated on chromecast and the stadia app as well. I think you can tell the Google assistant to play games from the chromecast so that kind of helps. But sometimes I just want to sort games and search thru them though which you can't :disappointed_face:

I agree 100% with you on the poor way that your games are navigated on Chromecast as one big long linear list.  It can sometimes be easier to find the game you want to play in the app and then choose your chromecast as the screen to use, instead of navigating the chromecast UI.
