Even if they haven't said it out loud, Google has already decided to cancel Stadia, so unfortunately cancelling a game for it will have zero impact on Google.

> Google has already decided to cancel Stadia

I believe you were going for hyperbole, but it reads more like misinformation instead. Please reconsider saying misleading shit like this, especially on HN.

Google closed one of their first party Stadia game development studios. They haven't decided to cancel Stadia as a whole yet, at least not publicly.

  • We've seen the playbook often enough. If you think they aren't going to close it down in 3 years, you're wasting money.

      and

      > "Google has already decided to cancel Stadia"

      mean entirely different things. Of course people expect Stadia to get cancelled, but to claim they've already decided to cancel it is disinformation. It's a blatant lie. Don't spread fake news.

    • Stadia hasn't gotten a dollar from me, and won't. I absolutely think it'll be gone by then, but that's not the same thing as "has already decided to cancel".
