Feels like it’s going to end up like Stadia….

As YouTube was never ever profitable, they probably will not care if it takes off or not.

I can't remember where I saw it, but there was a quote a few years ago that said "Stadia is not the future of gaming, it's the future of YouTube." Looks like that prediction may have been accurate.
