I love Stadia and the technology behind it, but wow I had low expectations for Connect and still got disappointed. With all the hype from these gaming events this summer, you'd think that Stadia would only have an event if there were some large announcements to make. Everything featured today may as well have been a blog post. What the community expected/speculated: Platform features such as Family Sharing, messaging, even a search box for the store Future news about the hardware and Gen 2 as next-gen consoles are coming soon News about UPlay+ and those games being ported to Stadia Support for additional regions Large AAA game announcements Instead we got click-to-play for only Pro members, and a few decent games padded by a lot of indie titles. Ubisoft Forward made me more excited about Stadia than Stadia Connect did because of Watch Dogs: Legions, Assassin's Creed: Valhalla, and Far Cry 6 all releasing day and date on Stadia. I mentioned I had low expectations, because at the very least I thought we would hear about new platform features. Even the "Summer of Gaming" sales aren't that great compared to previous sales on Stadia. What do you guys think?
