https://sirusgaming.com/google-stadia-shutting-down-soon-rumor
According to Twitter account Killed by Google, a group that tracks all of the services that Google closes down, it will not be long before Google scuttles down the services of Stadia. They claim it could shut down by the end of summer. The worst of it all is this: there will be no license transfer of any sort. This means any game that was bought on Stadia will be gone for good when the services go down. There is some good news though.

Why would the social media manager know if Google was about to cut them?

Anyone else noticed the Stadia influencers? They made 10 posts a day about Stadia to reddit and twitter, and usually streamed a game on Stadia every week. They had some sort of prepackaged script about why Stadia is the future of gaming and good for disadvantaged people, blah, blah blah, they would NOT shut up about Stadia being the future of gaming and what a great deal it is.
if those people weren't paid shills, it's somehow even more pathetic

I mean, even during the xbox/GC/PS2 days people simped for companies for companies for no fricking reason. I do feel like they had to pay for stadia shills because cloud gaming is a terrible experience, just having tried it out of curiousity.

What are the benefits for "disadvantaged" people (whatever that means)?

Well, poors that have really good internet (lmao) can just get a pc (lmao) and then buy games (lmao) and play them on slightly substandard hardware. So this totally caters to literally no one.

Google loves to flex "the disadvantaged" to get what they want. They'll even stoop to portraying people/orgs as "hating the poor" if you get in the way of Google's projects. I've had it happen to me, and I quit a product group over it.

lol yes, I saw an argument with stadia people on twitter and they were like "Of course video games should be an infinite subscription. WHY DO YOU HATE THE POOR SO MUCH"
They would add up a ridiculous gaming PC up to a few thousand dollars, and then all the games, and then say Stadia is accessible compared to $4k or whatever they came up with
"yeah you can play all those games on a $100 ebay laptop, but not ARK: survival evolved... why don't you want poor people to have access to ARK with massive latency???"

first noticed them when a gamedev had his gmail and drive nuked without explanation. he went on a twitter tirade and cancelled his upcoming stadia game. the stadiaposters started calling him a karen, but since he'd lost like a decade of emails & files, the stadiachuds just kept getting dogpiled. eventually the stadia PR team told them to shut up and google apologized.
they are not paid. some are run by stadia staff, but many are wannabe streamers who are (no joke) paid with stadia shirts and baseball caps

I have a stadia because I got one for free. It's fricking garbage and the controller is weird. I tried playing destiny 2 and the input lag is atrocious. Now I have a shitty white controller taking up room in a drawer.

yeah, I tried the playstation equivalent service when I was moving and just had my laptop. It's pretty much unplayable for anything that needs reaction time. Tried to play some ratchet and clank and gave up after a few hours.

I played with an Xbox controller on my fiber connection and it was flawless.
I still would never use Stadia, Xbox cloud is way better. The idea of having a 'license' conrtrolled by a third party platform while games cost $50+ is insane.
$15/m for 100 xbox games that I can play on my TV without even buying an xbox is A+

They work fine at least with my Linux systems if I use a USB-C cable. Even the vibration works.
Not sure if it works for Windows.

Outdated and inaccurate. Google has denied this and, if you don't trust that alone, they are expanding into Mexico this year and also are still seeking to add major new releases like Saints Row and Fifa 23 to the service. It's not quite dead yet and the Mexico expansion could be a major boon.

Weeb? Skyrim and elder scrolls are American made video games based on European lore and history. I had too google the weeb word. I actually don’t like anime I just happened to like medieval fantasy genres which is pretty different than what you are suggesting and it was developed in the USA by a USA based studio. Learn what words mean and what about the subjects before you start talking shit you look like a 12 year old little boy btw get the frick out of here you little c*nt

i mean the theory makes sense, but google would never build edge GPU services. it would compete with their cloud.

I assumed it just got silently cut awhile back. The whole concept only makes sense for games that don't need reaction time. Like information takes too much time to transmit.
