I have bought this game, but never install it. Maybe give it try? I do not have much time to play and can play too many games. In fact, I do not have drive space to install each game I can play.

Similar case we had with web browsers. Before creating pages supporting web standards was advertisement/focused by professionals, many web pages claims it worked only with IE, but it worked in Firefox (many times) better.

In my opinion, Google should start cooperation with Valve. Valve have the store and giant amount of games working on Linux. Google could provide infrastructure to deliver cloud gaming.

If you would not play with Stadia, you could still download not expanded title on your Linux desktop.

Sentence about lost of market, because game will be available on new platform is stupid.

And it will receive provits, because users of these new platforms will buy an game licenses.
