It would be a rather dangerous precedent if they don't care about the save games. On some games, the world / game save file can have hundreds of hours invested into it. If they were just like "well sucks, we might lose it, eh", it'd say something about using stadia.
- kadoban 4y ago> it'd say something about using stadia. It'd say that Google is not serious about Stadia, long-term. Which was already known when they announced it for the first time, so not a lot of loss there. This is very likely just a bug they'll fix soon though, at least I certainly hope so for the players' sakes.
- smueller1234 4y agoI can tell you that the stadia team don't look at it like that at all. I've worked on storage, I know their storage system design, and I've discussed it with the SRE team in the past. I'm not involved in any of the ongoing and wouldn't comment on it. Came here to assert that this team is neither stupid nor callous.
- influx 4y agoOk, when this issue was escalated did that team get paged in to work on a potential data loss issue? If not, I’m concerned. I’ve worked at storage at scale too, and this is standard practice.
- jsemrau 4y agoWould be a big red flag if Stadia would be losing save games. If I'd have invested 100+ hours into a game and it would be lost-> seriously annoyed.
