I don't care if the games are free, the proof will be in the execution of the platform itself not the content, the pricing, or the cool new features. I expect the proof to be lacking.

Based on the beta, it is lacking.

As a stadia beta user, I can say that it was a noticeable step backwards from playing AC:O locally on a gaming PC with just a GTX-1070:

1)  Even though it was supposed to be streaming 60 fps, it was only rendering at 30 fps -- it was noticeably choppy

2)  Sound was mono

3)  I saw noticeably macroblocking every 10-20 minutes or so as my internet hitched (because it can't buffer)

4)  Controller latency was better than I had expected, but was still very apparent

5)  When I switched from ethernet to WiFi, everything got worse

6)  Lots of compression artifacts (like you would see an a typical internet streaming video)
