I find it kinda funny that the service eats up bandwith like crazy even on small games, and that fluctuations in your internet connection results in audio hiccups. Even fans of muh precious walking sims should hate that latter part.

Visual quality is also never what it should be. It's a bit like Youtube compression. Pretty great for a service that has better visuals as it's main selling point.

The visuals look amazing. A shame they no longer do by the time they reach your screen

It's perfect.

I really don't get how they thought that was a good idea, and how they got away with that.
I mean, their shiny Stadia interface is most likely just html with some Java- or other script, sending bog-standard PHP requests to a bog-standard database, which can handle bog-standard queries like "select every fucking thing from the fucking game table where the fucking name is kinda like fucking x" (to somewhat paraphrase common SQL queries).

There's no way they didn't leave this out on purpose, whatever that may be.

So it's harder to look what is available. Remember, they can pull any game any time. Not like Steam where it'll still be available for those that bought it but entirely. After all, they would actually have to run it.

I guess it's to prevent something like when I browsed Netflix and they didn't have a single movie I searched for. They want to show you what they have, not make you look for something they don't.

Someone got caught faking Cyperspunk on the Stadia, showing how smooth it plays and how good it looks but it was really running on something else. But don't worry, the studio making it promises it will be just as good on Stadia! Consoom!

Semenspunk dosent even look good or perform well on PC.

This just in, google just closed its first party development studios for stadia games. This just proves google doesn't know what they are doing meanwhile microsoft is setting itself up to absolutely dominate next gen with xcloud and actual exclusives people care about like halo, gears, forza, and literally anything bethesda going forward.

Yet another failure for Jade Raymond's resume.

Did that studio even ever make a game?

From what I can find, no.

It's almost like google has a history of immediately stopping things while the consoomer holds the bag.
