It seems like a lot of you don't understand that Stadia is a PLATFORM. They have no access to triple A games unless that games development team and publisher ports the game over to their platform. That is a very intensive process for the game developers due to Stadia running off of Linux, most games are created for Direct X and not Open GL which is a Linux standard. Have you ever wondered why you must hack a game / run the game on an simulated windows program within Linux to play it? Because the games are not nativity created for it. Stadia has a huge up hill battle to get triple A games on their platform. They have to try and make deals with huge game companies that may not think it profitable to redesign the game for controller support and Linux. --If you want triple A games... Start telling these game companies you want the game on Stadia! They are the ones that need to Listen to their communities and consumers. They are the ones making the games for specific platforms!-- So seeing small Indie games is awesome, that means these indie companies took the time and resources to port the game over or made the game mainly with Stadia in mind. Stadia is going to take quite a while to get going. Due to they will have to create most of their own Triple A titles through their own game studio. Most large companies are after your money and not a quality game for Stadia. They will create a game and kicked it out on a single platform due to contacts with Sony/Microsoft X BOX or even Steam. Ever heard of Gran Turismo? Ever seen it released on anything other than a PlayStation? (NO and you never will as long as their contract stands with Sony.) The contract will stipulate how long that Game can be sold on that platform before it can be ported to another. OR the game creators will make a game for Steam, Xbox, OR PlayStation and not worry about Stadia due to it being on a different platform than the PC/Consoles. Some game companies just don't have the budget to create their game for PC, Xbox, PlayStation, and Stadia. People have to understand porting a game over to Stadia is not a click of a button and poof the game is there. They may have Triple A games coming on the horizon but who is to say a large game won't take a year or two before it is ready to be played on Stadia. This is due to the massive changes that may have to occur for the game to run smoothly on Stadia. If you are impatient and are not liking the titles presented then don't pay for the pro sub. No one is forcing you to do so. Right now the main convenience of Stadia is being able to play games across multiple screens (If and it is a BIG if! you have an internet connection fast enough to do so.)
