Taking games that already exist and locking them behind their subscription. They already did it to Into the Breach. Time to boycott the the makers of these games for making shitty deals (Supergiant Games, Devolver Digital, Subset Games).
The games already exist, but not on mobile. I'd agree if they were available on mobile already and then went behind a paywall subscription. If the games would never exist on mobile if Netflix wasn't paying for them to be there, then I don't mind as much
I hear what you are saying. I thought a little about that myself, if they are paying to get them onto the platform. But that's just it. I don't know about ios, but it's Android that Into the Breach is on. That's the platform. Netflix is no gaming platform. Why didn't these studios bring their games directly to Android? I say fault them.
I def do wish that these companies were able to publish it themselves so they didn't have to go with Netflix, I can agree with that
