@TomLarrow 100% this. It needed a free tier, at something like 480p or 360p, to get more people using it. With your free plan you get access to a new game every week, and you can subscribe to keep playing that game, access more games, and get better video quality. It was a pure business failure. It did nothing to shake up the market.
@popey is the Stadia controller *good*? Like, I'm sure it's perfectly decent and well built, but would it worth me procuring one to use as my main gamepad on Linux?
@omglinux @popey yeah but you can buy a battery pack for it, i did and works great but if you wanna spend a bit more the 8bitdo ultimate wireless is great too
Ooh, I hadn't heard of that! That looks right up my sidewalk ๐ (plus a charging dock so it sits nicely on the desk). Thanks Liam, gonna have to look in to that - my current gamepad is a 8BitDo SN30 Pro and the quality is ace but I'm starting to miss the "full hand" feeling modern controllers like the Stadia/Xbox controller offer.
just flashed mine on fedora, worked flawlessly only needing to use chrome was annoying. u-dev rule is understandable, but might be problematic for some users.
I managed to update my Stadia controller to use bluetooth, but I can not for the life of me make it work under Steam. I assume I might need to do something to map the controller correctly, but for instance playing ARK I could not get the aiming to work, although I could move around using the controller.
