Out of curiosity for anyone who's used the service routinely since launch and has recently cancelled: do you see a visual difference when you play games you've bought (now that the highest streaming quality is no longer available)? If you do, woud you say it's a big difference? I guess ultimately the question is, what kind of value would you assign to that difference?
In the end their goal is probably to be on everything, which would include apps for TVs. I think that's probably pretty low down on their current agenda though.

Happy Release Day Canceliversary! :( was hoping that definitely today they would announce some big hitters and new exclusives to keep us on board
I am. My renewal was yesterday and I was happy to let it ride. I still have a couple of the free games I want to get through.
I actual returned my Premier Edition within the returns window due to CCU issues so I haven't had a Pro subscription for a couple of months now (they cancel it when you get your refund obviously). Regardless, I'm gonna grab a month in the next week or so to play Gylt. Seems like a no brainer for me to pay £8.99 to play through it (I almost grabbed it for £29.99 at launch).
That was a fairly common guess, and didn't seem particularly unreasonable once it started looking like Google wouldn't have the base subscription tier ready before the 3 months that founders got started to expire.
I guess they want to start making money, however little, from Stadia as a service (rather than just as a storefront).
Another update and another Sale. Dragonball is on sale and 4 SteamWorld games are upcoming for Stadia. Two of them (SteamWorld Dig 2 and SteamWorld Quest: Hand of Gilgamech) will be free for pro users when they release.

Damn, tempted to get Xenoverse 2, played the shit out of it ages ago though...
Oh damn haha not my cup of tea and forgot about that, just had the other stuff of the quoted post on my mind. Sry
Cancelled mostly because I've had my fill of Destiny for now and can play the free version on GeForce Now.
I'll eventually resub when they're is a game I really want
Never got past the school, not really into the stealth no weapons to defend yourself type of games lol.
Same, I read initially digging the game but couldn't see doing this for an extended time
The stealth section in the beginning is pretty much the entire game. Finished it today but mostly because my kids really wanted to see the end. Thought it was a cool game with a good message but a bit too repetitive.
Yeah it seems like it would be good for younger kids.

Personally, I was assuming the reason why Premium for founders was only a 3 month period was because, Stadia Base would be out by then, which kinda puts this whole thing in a really awkward situation. I'm still curious to try the service, but not enough to pay for a founders edition or pay for Premium.
Steamworld franchise is a solid get. Stadia needs more indie support to fill in the gaps between big AAA releases.
Looks like you can't use Google store credit towards sale items... Surely that can't be right?
Ah crap. I forgot to cancel and got charged. I think I put in 3 hours total the past 3 months.
You can, but only if you have enough for the whole payment, it can't be spitted between credit and card.
That's bizarre since you can split between CC for full priced games.

It's less exciting for me as Ubisoft games work really well with GeForce Now, but if they really offer 4k I might bite

I'm in for GRID. That's a great game to give to Pro subs.
Definately.
Now that my interest is peaked again I am trying the mobile version of Stadia with an Xb1 controller but it is not responding at all.
Is it only the Stadia controller that works? I know it's not my phone as I use it with Xcloud and Geforce
edit: nvm it works just wouldn't let me cancel the opening cinematic for some reason
edit2: lol I don't seem to have an option to re-subscribe

I've been on the fence about getting Grid for a while, so I am super happy to see that it's going to be a Pro game.
piqued*
I bought GRID on launch, but glad that there may be some activity so I can try the 40 player races. Steamworld games are a nice bonus.
Maybe his interest can only reach a certain level tho.

Exactly!! :P
Playing Destiny on Stadia/Geforce/xCloud from my phone, the Stadia version is better than the others by far.
Sucks that there is no rumble in Android on any version
For anyone interested there is currently a livestream of Spitlings going on. They currently are playing solo but will be playing online mp later with viewers. Devs are also in the Chat .

It's 19,99 usd? Thought it would be 14,99 usd as it's often a direct conversion from eur

I've been bouncing back and forth between Stadia and GeForce Now for a while now (was in the beta for GeForce Now for ages so been using it for a while). They're both obviously very different in a lot of ways but there's one massive difference that really makes Stadia better imo.
It's the contrast levels. GeForce Now looks like a video stream. It's washed out and blacks look grey. I never ever feel like it's native, I feel like I'm playing a stream. On the opposite end, Stadia looks basically native on my screen. You'll get the odd hitch that'll give it away but I'm constantly surprised at how native-like the Stadia stream looks to my eyes on my nice screen.

This... Actually kind of nailed it. That's how it feel, and the black levels (colours overall) are a huge part of it.
Interesting, would love to see a in-depth video of someone like DF comparing the two
Do you mean on the big screen or a PC monitor? I find Stadia outperforms Geforce in stability but Geforce has the edge with color contrast. granted I only really just checked this with Destiny on my PC with it's crappy monitor
Both for me. On my 4k TV via a Chromecast Stadia looks essentially native. On my PC monitor (1080p) it looks great too. GeForce Now looks like a Steam Link stream. Like it's washed out.
