It’s honestly extremely funny to see Google burn millions in R&D on the AMD hardware, Linux porting tools and runtime, as well as the improvements to WebRTC while their competitors just used AWS GPU instances (like Shadow) or their own GPU farms (GeForce Now) running Windows to run games with little modification.
Stadia is an unmitigated disaster outside of playing Cyberpunk and I’ve been a longtime fan of the streaming games concept -
I was an early fan of OnLive and used the GeForce Now beta regularly. It’s ultimately a case study in how investing only in tech isn’t necessarily customer obsessed.
- detaro 6y agoIn what way is Stadia an "unmitigated disaster"? The people I know that actually have it are (to my suprise) quite happy with it.
- neolog 6y agoDo they all have low-latency connections?
- detaro 6y agonot extremely so, but probably also not terrible. (major cities in Germany, so likely mostly fast ADSL. You don't really get below 25ms on DSL due to the last mile, but if the connections and peering from there are good also not much more)
