Google Stadia faces a lot of skepticism as it attempts to bring cloud gaming into our homes, and most of that skepticism is fair.
For one thing, it’s Google, and they’re not to be trusted. The company’s history of long-term support for its own products is far from encouraging. We also can’t trust the “AAA” publishers climbing aboard the gravy train, because they’re “AAA” publishers.
Stadia has also reinvigorated the conversation about game ownership, as many users are wondering what would happen to their Stadia purchases should the platform die off. Google’s attempted patronizing answers to such queries, and they fail to really address the concern.
The problem is, Google couldn’t really assure us even if it wanted to. No action plan for the security of our game libraries can be revealed without it also undermining the entire point of Stadia…

I can’t wait for the Stadia to be Dead on Arrival
If this become’s the only option im abandoning gameing outright
And this, along with brand loyalty, is why Stadia will fail.
Between this and Yong Yea’s latest on Stadia, the whole thing is falling apart like a cheap suit in the rain.
I refuse to trust any company that doesn’t allow me ownership after taking full price of the game from me
My internet is mostly 1 to 2 mbps so no way am i gonna get hd experiance
I went from having 0% interested in the Stadia to well in to negatives thanks to this video.
If I can’t own a game then I’m not paying for it lmao.
3:39 except that they completely stopped developing play music and instead during the coming month everyone using it will have to switch to fkng YouTube Music which sucks balls
“Why would it be cheaper?”
idk you’re selling permission to play something rather than a licensed unit of something. Like you’re not even selling the files, just permission to interact with a video of the game.
Notice how the Google rep said that the “games are yours too play”… not the games are yours to keep.
Stadia: We don’t know if you will own your games
Customers: Well I guess we don’t know if we will own your product.
So, basically, their argument number 1 is: Trust us.
Argument number 2 is: Please.
I’m a Google Glass Explorer; still waiting for my eyepiece.
I don’t want to go back to piracy, just let me buy my games and let me keep them…
Google : **Abandons Google fiber**
Also Google: **Creates a game streaming service which requires very high speed internet**
Surely they’re just trolling us at this point.
I’m so glad that Google made a console that encompasses just about everything I absolutely despise about both Google AND the gaming industry as a whole. No, wait…
I think I’m the opposite of glad.
People: *a well formulated simple question*
Companies: “Okay, but first we have to talk about parallel universes.”
