I play Destiny 2 semi-regularly with friends on Xbox at the moment. Latency issues are sometimes noticeable (and quite irritating), even though it's obviously sending a lot less data down the wire than Stadia during play. Theoretical concern or not, if that can't work flawlessly over my broadband connection then I don't see how Stadia can: it's not magic. Sadly it doesn't actually matter how well it works for other people because it has to work well for me on my internet connection. The evidence I have so far suggests it's not going to be that great, so I'm not going to pay for it. The reason this doesn't bug the heck out of me already is because I don't actually play that many online games: I'm a fan of single player story driven campaigns, and (to a lesser extent) single player sandbox experiences, as well as arcadey racing games with couch and online play. Finally, I also play a lot of more retro titles. These are all experiences that work really well when played on local hardware that absolutely aren't going to improve via any kind of streaming experience as those services currently exist.
