I believe that, despite everything that can be said about this whole announcement, yes, this is the beginning of the end. I am saying this as a Founder that has invested 500€ for hardware and software in this project (because, c'mon, for how this has been managed it was clear that it has been a project all along). I have loved so many things about Stadia, too bad it is now clear that I was most likely one of the very few ones. Yes, this is the beginning of the end, because this is how Google has always treated dying products: they progressively shut down services to postpone the inevitable. Look at Google Latitude and how they incorporated it in Google Plus before closing it. Look at Google Plus and how they separated it from Google Photos before closing it. Look at how they implemented VR in Google ARCore before destroying Google Cardboard. I have already seen this film. Yes, I will stay with Google. Yes, I'll stay subscribed to Stadia Pro (never skipped a month, actually), because I still enjoy the service. But now we can finally talk about WHEN Stadia will shut down. The "IF" question has been answered today.
