Quoting: x_wingThe only big problem is QA. Even games that would be suitable to release for desktop would require this "extra" process which means that you give an extra cost on publisher side. In the end, it'll be more a publisher choice than something that Stadia could bring.Google can help with that.

itch.io needs more high profile releases. Besides being flooded with low quality games, it's a great store!

Quoting: ZlopezI read your subreddit and it's nice how you are trying to explain how DRM is wrong and it shouldn't be used. I myself always wonder, why the DRM is even used, when it doesn't affects sales. Who doesn't want to pay never will, with or without DRM. I agree with the movies, it is the most sick industry in regards of DRM.Feel free to comment in that thread. It's surprising how many DRM proponents are commenting there. I suspect most of them aren't sincere users, but represent the pro-DRM side of publishers.
I'm even convinced, that the sales wouldn't be affected if every software will be open sourced.

Stadia subreddit has an official community manager from Google. So I guess this is as good as it gets, if she can help directing this to anyone in the company who could use such idea.

Quoting: ShabbyXGoogle is huge, and so is the amount of feedback they get. Depends on the team, but they usually go through everything, even if they can't literally reply to everyone. Probably the first step would be to wait for launch, then submit feedback through whatever interface they have. Mind you, they could disagree with the suggestion or have it as low priority, but they won't be able to engage with you personally due to the massive amount of feedback they get.I posted the proposal here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Stadia/comments/b977ex/proposal_for_google_stadia_provide_drmfree/ [External Link]

Quoting: TheRiddickCan't wait for when SC gets Vulkan, that will just be amazeballs...What's the story with Star Citizen in general? When is single player campaign coming out, and how much of the multiplayer universe is ready? Last time I've looked into it, it was just a tiny prototype.

Unfortunately, faudio is stuck for example with entering Debian, so it's not recommended upgrading Wine past 4.2, unless you have faudio ready.

It looks like they are avoiding the question. Their own community managers answered other things on the forum, but not this one.
