Google Stadia General Discussion - Like any other gaming platform, but worse.

[Floop]

I think he's talking about the Steam Machines which never really did much.

That was 3,000 years ago though

How is this comparable to Valve?

Talisman to name one, was a dead on arrival beta test of a card game due to how Valve themselves seemingly had no idea what they're doing. So you paid full price for an underdeveloped game that died as soon as it came out.

But Gaben said it was the Half Life 2 of card games! No seriously I’m not making that up.

Yeah...

That reddit post I just linked shows that the guy has an Xbox one and a switch. How much product is there to be consumed?

He's also the kind of person to hang his Google bag proudly up on his wall. And his hand is... weird. It looks like he's wearing a glove made of human skin.

Oh god how did I not notice both of those things.

Theres a lot of weird stuff to digest in that picture. I'm uploading it here for backup purposes.

He looks like he's sitting in a bed, with a frame that looks like industrial piping, that's pushed very close to his table that has school locker-style vents on it, which makes his room look very small. Even the lighting is really strange, with the strong blue lamp in an otherwise red room. I'm gonna guess that it's not just from a bad camera, either, considering the kind of person who'd actually buy a Stadia Founder's Edition probably has a high-end phone.

Why are these motherfuckers always playing Destiny 2? THIS GAME IS FREE ON PC YOU BUNCH OF RE.TAR.DED FREAKS!!!!!11

It's the only game that's free on Stadia too. Even the early adopters who bought this junk don't want to pay those outrageous prices for more games.

 

[Gamepad]

Destiny 2 is probably the baseline in terms of comparison too, and you'll also notice that the ones complaining tend to be those with enough D2 playtime on PC/consoles to actually care about the experience.

I can tell you exactly why this is a thing. The idiots at google are living in a silicon valley bubble sniffing their own farts. None of them would blink at paying a "modest" subscription fee on top of full price to stream games just for "convenience". They also have that super blazing fast internet as well. Something like Dial Up or DSL is something whispered about in fairy tales about the medieval dark age. They dont exist anymore and everyone in the world clearly has the same access to telecommunication they do. Also their focus testing group drawn up from their young new employees all agreed 100% with the bosses ideas, proving the idea was good and a big hit with a hip young crowd

And so Stadia was born.

That's certainly their mindset. They really do think that most of the country thinks just like they do, which leads to hilarity like the never-ending bewildered panic over how Trump won. And also the whole trend of sticking wifi onto every single household appliance, which lead to retarded shit like the Juicero:


(screenshot of a CNet article that archive.is couldn't capture)

Silicon Valley operates like one gigantic cult. They'll bang on all day about diversity, but shut down any and all diversity of thought, and then wonder why the world thinks their perpetual products of incest never take off.

 

[Gamepad]

Go watch a teardown video of the Juicero. The thing somehow got to production without going through a cost reduction stage, and was such an overengineered device that even at its original price (700$!), they were still selling at a loss.

Ahh the Juicero

Silicon Valley: we need to design a mechanical squeezing device that uses multi functional pressure application, with smart technology to apply just the right amount of pressure and wifi connectivity so it can receive instructions.

Everybody else: so...you want to redesign the human hand and charge people 700 bucks for it...

Don't forget it had DRM as well!

What a hunk of shit.

Everyone in r/stadia is now gushing about how stadia fixed the toxic relationship they had with their father. I’m sure that magic is gonna fade when they see their internet bills.
EDIT: I made a thread asking that and everyone says they have unlimited plans with no data cap.

r/Stadia - Their first meeting went surprising well...

Be careful not to trip on all that google cum being spewed from all that sucking off.

 

[Raging Capybara]

...how much it's pissing off angry gamer nerds who're now realising that gaming isn't really just about them anymore. "Games don't work if they have 40ms latency"

Games don't work with 40ms latency indeed (30fps, that's already annoying, has 33ms of latency), but stadia has 500MS LATENCY you fucking reta.rde.d. Kill yourself.

EDIT - lol at the motherfucker with all the controllers. He doesn't have the avarege xboxone controller, it's the ELITE version. The one that coasts a kidney.

What a pathetic coonsomer.

lol, all I can think of is dumb faggots for paying full price for ported games that are years old. This is going to lead to that Jojo meme of PC Gamers, Console Gamers and Phone Gamers all beating the shit out of Stadia Gamers.

EDIT:
Fuck it, I did it. Call me autistic, I don't care. I laughed.

Everyone’s fucking playing Destiny 2. I don’t get this at all. Guys I might have to consume product because everyone in this subreddit fucking loves it. I mean there’s no way Google could fuck this up right?
Oh by the way Google is killing cloud print next year.

Google is killing Google Cloud Print

After a decade of making printing easy, Google just isn't interested anymore.
