The amount of games doesn't matter it's the messaging, stadia first big exclusive released im going to go buy it on the play store, what it's not there why can't I buy it on the play store
And it wouldn't even be stadia games either you would be buying a game made for windows and a game made for stadia, I'm sure that's not free
Boot up PSnow on your pc and see if you can download it to your pc
Nothing I said would stop them from having Stadia only games.
Maybe we will get multilplatform games that have stadia specific features too and not just exclusives. That wouldn't be possible if we had a box to download to
And water is wet.
No it's not.. WTF?
Yea it's just the same uplay that you can use on pc that was ported to stadia there's nothing special about it
I don't think this negativity is that unwarranted. Google does have a history of experimenting with new products and services all the time, with a lot of them leading to their eventually discontinuation. And I think in general the sentiment towards "online-only" features has always been negative for various reasons.
Right in that post I explained it's how the media and gamers interpreted Google's statements.

My entire point was I DO NOT THINK THEY ALLOW THAT. Like read the posts you are linking to dude.
No one? Steam provides Steam keys absolutely for free to devs/publishers to do with what they want, provided they also sell the game on Steam
And I explained why I and other's thought they alluded to this.Sorry, but you don't get to simply go to the past and change what you said. I asked you several times to provide proof, for when Google alluded to the idea of developers being able use multiple Stadia blades per user. To allow 20TF or 30TF per user.
That's exactly what they said, in the first reveal.
So after talking about how amazing Doom was with just one GPU, they talked about how developers will be able to make even better games with multiple GPUs. They then went on to show a game where the player was fighting a giant demon, using multiple GPUs for better lighting and water effects.Google said:
You don't get free steam keys when you buy 3rd party games on the eshop or psn
Yeah as I suggested the "download version" would need DRM that blocked the ability to play on both Stadia and locally at the same time.
Not happening, the whole point of stadia is to get away from the limitation of boxes
Again; nothing I said limits anything to do with Stadia. It just adds (rather massive) value to their product (at the cost of having to support a PC download store.)
There's no reason for Sony or Microsoft to have a cloud only game because their servers are just Xboxes and ps4s same thing you can use in your home

Good lord. Of course they're handed out to publishers. Who do you think hands them out to stores to sell, Steam? The point is PUBLISHERS get Steam keys which they can give to other stores to sell their product. They are perfectly allowed to bundle them with a Stadia purchase of THEIR GAME if the publishers wanted (and Stadia would allow it), and it wouldn't cost them an extra cent to do so.
Giving people choice is not putting something back in the box, unless you think people will not choose for the streaming option, but then that's their choice. Either way they'd be able to use it, and they would've used the store so profit made.
Problem is that would essentially give people 2 disparate copies of the game that could be played independently.
