I thought Stadia was incredibly well-engineered, had good performance playing modern games with a Thinkpad. But none of my friends had any idea what Stadia was, the ad campaign was atrocious. Time and time again, Google builds great products and then shelves them a year or two later.

Google is not alone. Intel halfheartedly develops GPUs. It doesn't work without strategy.

Then take a look at how Nvidia markets a similar product (GeForce Now). It not only works way better (much better GPU) but also is growing by leaps and bounds every year and adding hundreds of games. And it uses your existing steam library for cross saves and cross plays. It was around before Stadia and survived long after Stadia.

Google has a bunch of amazing engineers and finance people but apparently they just can't productize anything.

Only works if you have a very stable internet connection
