I already sent feedback through the Stadia phone app, but I would like to put it out there on here too so maybe you can both figure a solution. While most of Stadia's settings are locked based on their configuration on optimal play, there are a few settings still available to us. The problem however is you have to redo them every time you launch the game as whatever settings you change revert back to defaults once you exit Stadia.
Settings I go through every time I launch it:
1. Turn off the Music, I find it really distracting while I play.
2. Adjust Brightness higher, its current is too dark to see anything.
3. Adjust Screen Boundaries to maximum distance.
4. Turn on NPC Chat Bubbles,
5. Turn on Player Chat Bubbles, can't tell if anyone is talking to me because the chat window is closed by default.
6. Crafting - select checkbox "Have Materials, Have Knowledge" on every single character. This is more of a visual issue, not really a problem.
