With the Advent of Stadia by Google, is there any way that Linden Labs may be interested in pushing Second Life to Google's services?
At this time, Stadia supports Havok, the same physics engine Second Life runs on. Of course, transferring Second Life to Stadia would probably be pricy for Linden Labs, but it would reap a LOT of benefits.
Examples of this would be a push to the forefront of technology for Virtual Worlds, and truely make Second Life stand out again, drawing in new players. Additionally, more players means more income, and the push to Google's servers means there could possibly be lower cost for land in SL, driving up industry and development again.
Of course, all of this is theoretical, but it would be nice to push for some new experiences and development on SL to go beyond what it currently is.
