About the Data Usage Performance settings...

I'm sure plenty of us know this but I've seen a regular hole pop up in people's knowledge of Stadia. It's rather important when considering subbing too!

The Data Usage setting in the app has no effect on any games settings. It is purely the resolution of the video playback being received by your device. Just as you would turn down detail in a YouTube video. The game being played at Stadia's magical pink data centre does not change one jot. Only the resolution of the image you see on your screen.

If you've no 4K TV or surround sound... And won't miss the free games either .. Stadia is a free, high performance, mobile console to you. You won't miss out on a thing :)

Also... It does mean if a game has terrible optimisation, flicking between these three settings won't help one bit... Looking at YOU Borderlands 3! O_O

Re-edit : ok it seems I'm entirely wrong. The game resolution that's loaded does vary depending on the settings. My idiocy remains for all to see...

Remember me when Stadia is all we play 👍
