I just don't see the value in Stadia over buying a console. The only use case seems to be for someone too poor to afford a console, but that someone has enough money to buy a full price video game on Stadia.
- thethethethe 6y agoPeople who want to game on their phones on the bus, in the car, waiting in line at the pharmacy etc. people who aren’t serious enough to buy a gaming PC or a console but still want to play a games occasionally. People who want to keep their lives simpler by converging to fewer devices I am sure there are many more
- FridgeSeal 6y agoThe kinds of games they're pushing don't match up with those use-cases though. Doesn't matter how flashy Stadia is, you're hardly going to get past the loading screen on AC Odessey/whatever before you run out of time.
- wollef 6y agoSave $X00? I'm an occasional gamer, so it's a bit hard to justify a console, but for the 1-2 games per year I want to play Stadia is great. Put another way: if Stadia has the games you want (big if now, but improving over time) why shell out for a console?
- vikinglore 6y agoWell, if you want to play video games in your living room and you don't want your computer to be in there, a console is very convenient.
