What Netflix has learned from its push into video games
The world’s biggest streamer wants to be a one-stop entertainment shop. Will its audience follow?
Maybe it’s just me, but I can’t get into the mindset of opening Netflix to play games. It’s too big a disconnect.
This is coming from someone who uses his Xbox to watch Netflix shows.
Your Netflix subscription allows you to download the games separately. It’s a licensing deal.
Like flash games but worse is what I would image netflix games to be.
From what I've seen, they aren't building the games, they are licensing existing ones. There are decent games in the mix.
Fire example Into the Breach
One of the games you can download on Android with a Netflix subscription is Into the Breach. I played that game so much while I had a subscription. It plays so well on mobile and I wish I could just pay the devs to own a copy but sadly Netflix is the only way to play it on that platform. I doesn't quite seem worth resubbing to Netflix for one game.
I love Into the Breach, I played it for quite a while on my pc. Never thought about it but playing it on your phone makes sense
Implying Netflix can learn..
Yes. Learn what makes them more money. The limited password sharing crackdown world, so they rolled it out worldwide, for example.
Oh wow, they picked up Hades. I could see some potential here, if they're getting high quality content instead of the MTX trash.
Awfully positive comment section here for a rancid shitty megacorp known for rancid shitty subscription services now trying to predate on gamers.
