I tried to add more product names but Bing couldn’t handle so many product names that Google has killed.
I am a victim of Google Reader, Google One VPN, Google Podcast, Picasa, Google Play Music, Google for Domains, Stadia.

Stadia was severely underrated and misunderstood, and Google was to blame.
It was a great solution for me who didn’t want to purchase a game console but wanted to play games occasionally.
Yeah, and I can’t speak for everyone here, but I didn’t even bother trying it even though I was intrigued. It seemed like the kind of thing that could be completely game-changing and I wasn’t willing to get hooked on another Googler’s pet project that’d just get the axe in a few years. It’s a self fulfilling prophecy at this point, nothing new is likely to get any traction because no one wants to run the risk and then Google cancels it. If they were willing to put in writing that they’ll support something for x number of years (that’s end user facing, not just whatever contracts they make with devs or whatever), it’d probably go a long way, but they’re not willing to support an expensive flop if the product is what actually sucks, so, they’re not likely to do that.
Hell, even anything older still runs the risk at any time :-\
Xbox gamepass does the same thing. You can play tons of xbox games in any web browser. No xbox hardware needed
Xbox Game Pass rotates games all the time. That means if I want to play a 50-hour RPG, I might have to finish the game before it gets rotated out. And Xbox doesn’t make the schedule available.
With Stadia I could purchase games and play it at my own pace, even without a subscription.

Though i don’t know if this means you have to pay the subscription to play it or not
AFAIK, you can purchase the games but the purchased games are only playable via Xbox/Windows.
Xcloud is limited to the games available via subscription. Unless they changed this recently.
Official Xbox FAQ says:
That means only games in the Game Pass library is playable via cloud.
