Subset Games is two people. The game has been available on Windows, Mac, and Linux for five years, during which they gave away a significant expansion for free. You're not punching up by calling for a boycott against EA or Activision here, these are indie developers and this is presumably their livelihood.
Instead, they are asking all who want to play on mobile to add a Netflix subscription. What?
It's not that deep, bro, just don't fucking play it?
So you care about me caring only enough to tell me I shouldn't care. Genius
I care about as much as you care to care because the care bears care to care and I'm living on a prayer
Care to explain that statement in caveman
Bear care. Bear, care.
Bear cool but I still don't comprehend
Instead? Instead of what? Just not developing a mobile version?
Presumably they could never afford to port to mobile themselves, without cooperating with Netflix. Since you don't want to pay for a Netflix subscription... You're not missing out on anything. It wouldn't have existed if not for Netflix.
I understand I'm not paying for it (not because I don't want the game; I'd gladly pay for it alone), and so I'm not playing it. I am missing out, what are you talking about? I'm voicing my displeasure with the situation. And it's totally valid. I think defending the subscription model is absurd.
