6 Reasons why Google Stadia will fail

#4. No offline play

We've all been forced to play T-Rex Run!

This is a rather obvious flaw since the entire premise of the Google Stadia console is to stream games without hardware limitations via the internet. However, if you have no internet connection then your Stadia is pretty much useless.

While internet technologies have grown and improved over the years, it still isn't perfect and players still want to play offline. Not to mention, some countries have limitations on the data their internet service providers give them. It's still a little early for the Stadia to release because the internet is not that widespread or cheap just yet.

#3. Internet connectivity issues

Not the sight we usually want to see.

As mentioned above, internet connectivity could be a major issue for Stadia owners. In the case of internet outages or just generally very slow internet, it can be painful to play. You could lose your progress while playing because there was no save game since your internet is slow.

While fast connections such as Google Fiber and fibre optics exist, they are not widespread due to the amount of hardware you require to even set up those connections. You need at least 10 Mbps to stream in 720p, forget 1080p or 4k. 4k streaming takes a huge amount of internet bandwidth and hardware power of your TV/Monitor.
