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
Well basically these games would likely have not been on mobile at all. Netflix is publishing them for mobile. If I had to guess, I’d say that Netflix approached these devs and offered to publish for them and provide them money for being on their service. For the devs, it’s free money for something they likely weren’t considering in the first place (porting to mobile). I definitely wish the devs would publish themselves (if they have the means) but it’s not how it’s happening unfortunately. And fwiw they are on the play store. You just need to sign in with a Netflix account when the game boots up.
I mean porting isn’t an effortless task to be fair.
I’d like to be clear I definitely do not prefer subscriptions to just buying it once. But really there are 2 scenarios here. 1. The game doesn’t exist on mobile at all. 2. It exists and you can play it if you have a Netflix subscription. I wish there was more than that but tbh I feel like I’d pick 2. At least with 2 the devs get more financial support and some more people have access to these excellent games
I’m… very cautiously optimistic for the sh2 remake. I really do not like bloober teams portfolio (and I’ve played most of it). However, I feel like since it’s not their own original thing, and it’s being supervised by some members of team silent, it could be good…
If it’s not good I won’t be too upset as the PC enhanced edition is so damn good. But I’ve got my eye on it.
Overall though, yeah townfall and f are more exciting to me

It’s about time that Intuit was called out for their scam. Hopefully, the attempt to stop the federal tax filing will get dismissed as well.
