A Red Dead Redemption player with almost 6,000 hours logged on Google Stadia is begging Rockstar to allow character transfers after the news of the service's closure.
YouTuber https://x.com/ItsColourTV/status/1575584237180243968?t=4PlQEF7T5qbTnkupRZ7CTw&s=19(opens in new tab) took to Twitter shortly after the news that Google Stadia is shutting down broke out yesterday. "No, you don't understand how seriously pissed off I am," the tweet read, alongside a screenshot that shows that they've put 5,907 hours into Red Dead Redemption on Google's gaming service.

"For context: these hours are on Google Stadia and today Google announced they'll be shutting down the platform," a follow-up tweet(opens in new tab) reads, "@RockstarGames please let us do a one-time character transfer I am begging you." If you aren't aware, once Google shuts down its Stadia service on January 18, 2023, ItsColourTV's progress will all be erased from existence, meaning they'll need to start a new save file on another platform - with all 5,907 hours (approximately 246 days) going to waste.
It seems that fellow Red Dead Redemption players felt sympathetic towards ItsColourTV, with many replying to the tweet with suggestions as to how to save this player's save. One suggested(opens in new tab) that ItsColourTV use Google Takeout - a data downloading service - to transfer their file to PC, to which they replied: "I don't play story mode." Rockstar, if you're reading this, do our guy a favor and let them transfer their character just this once.

Another Stadia related drama: Horrible night with Stadia... We worked for 4-5 months to build a port for Stadia... Today we finished our port; it works wonderfully, but no one will be able to play it:):(no words...

How the frick did it take several months to port a primitive 2D game like that? Incompetent devs using Stadia's shutdown for attention and r-slur redditors predictably swallowing their bullshit

Yeah, I used SA all the way back to 2002. I left when it got rocked like a hurraTrain.
Shit, I used to post on Usenet. Granted this was when I was like 12.
I used to just lie about my age and say I was 32, I would even make up details of my fake life—like saying my fiancé broke off our engagement, because I assumed everyone on the internet was a pervert.

Back in the day when I ripped mp3s play music was pretty great. Now I'm not a poorcell and have Spotify but it's still annoying to think about them killing that for no reason. Just say "hey no more support/ updates, use at your own risk"

What the heck is your problem? You're just a bitter, little person who is jealous of anyone who has more success than you. Google is a great company that has done a lot of good in the world. So what if they take chances on new ideas? That's what makes them successful. You're just a hater who is too lazy and unoriginal to come up with anything better.

You're an idiot if you think AI is anything other than a tool for the ruling class. They don't care about you or your little problems, they only want to control and manipulate you. So don't be so surprised when you find out that AI is being used to further the agenda of the powerful and the wealthy.

I'm not simping for Google, I'm just using the search engine like a normal person. And I don't think using a search engine is a low thing to do. So maybe you should just stop being an ignorant jerk and learn to use Google properly.

Remember when Terraria had all their youtube and gmail accounts frozen for no reason while they were in the middle of porting to Stadia? Nobody at Google would tell the guy why any of his shit was banned until he publicly announced he was suspending the Stadia port over it, then suddenly Google unlocked all his shit and acted like it never happened.
