I'd guess it's a typical "We built some amazing tech, but released it 90% finished with some critical bugs, and now the project is paralyzed while we fix those bugs rather than develop it."

What's worse is that, a lot of the time, that last 10% of implementation can require the majority of the development time. Not always, but often. Definitely with tech like video game streaming, I can see the last mile being the most difficult.

But, I mean, is it amazing? You can game on AWS with vanilla software if you really want to.

Could do this for a few years too and it worked really well.
