I already have a gaming PC at home and decent rigs in the places I frequent except the places where there is no internet at all. So it’s a no-go temporarily. But in 2 years when my current PC needs an upgrade. Maybe I take streaming services into account and don’t get that high-end graphics card.

But in 2 years it won’t be just Stadia in the games streaming game.

It already isn't. Nvidia Geforce Now lets me stream (some of) my prebought steam games. And its a pretty satisfying experience.

Their free tier isn't too bad, as of now, too. I see very little sense in buying something on Stadia, when I can buy it on steam and play at my desktop, or stream on my laptop.
