../../node_modules/grpc/index.d.ts:69:50 - error TS2314: Generic type 'Message<T>' requires 1 type argument(s).

69     [name: string]: GrpcObject | typeof Client | Message;

I've been running into all kinds of type errors with grpc and google-gax since trying to update my @google-cloud dependencies. This is one of them - these kinds of errors should definitely be caught by the Typescript build process before releasing the library, so I'm kind of surprised that it made it through.

I use esModuleInterop: true and "allowSyntheticDefaultImports": true, which was causing issues in google-gax for some reason - but I've turned them off to test and this grpc error remains the same, so its not related to those.

See #176, #393, #422, and #425, and this should have been fixed by protobufjs/protobuf.js#1086. Do you have a separate (possibly transitive) dependency on Protobuf.js that is pinned to an earlier version?

Ah that could be it.. I'm using a few libraries across @google-cloud. Trying to get them to all play nice is always a bit of a pain. I've rolled back for now because of some other TypeScript issues in google-gax, but will try again when they have been resolved.
