    Google, that company famous for creating new technologies and supporting them for long periods of time. Definitely something I am interested in becoming an early adopter for.

    Honestly? Google has been killing every project it started, so even if this happens, I guess it won’t last long anyway

      This. Stadia was one of the last example, they’ll kill this new service too after a few years, it’s not worth to even consider using.

        Stadia was likely killed by Google’s own reputation for killing products.

        After all, who wants to spend money on a library full of games you won’t be able to play next year? It’s a self fulfilling prophecy.

        Then refunding all the software and hardware was a surprising turn of events.
