Zedstrian ( @Zedstrian@lemmy.dbzer0.com ) English34•7 months agoI’d hardly count something like a simple Solitaire clone app that could be otherwise played for free as a full game release… In terms of actual games, I’d much rather support mobile ports that can be bought for a one time price tag than those that are locked behind a subscription in perpetuity.
Gamma ( @GammaGames@beehaw.org ) English1•7 months agoIt sounds like they’ve got some plans, though I’m not sure there’s anything I’d actually be interested in:
“And this is an area that we’ve been able to move in quickly in a particular space, which is interactive narrative games. These are easier to build. And we place those in a narrative hub that we call Netflix Stories.”
“I think the idea of being able to take a show and give the superfan a place to be in between seasons and even beyond that, to be able to use the game platform to introduce new characters and new storylines or new plot twist events […] I’m really excited to see where this goes.”
Peter_Arbeitsloser ( @Peter_Arbeitsloser@feddit.org ) 8•7 months agoI wish those things were separate subscriptions though. Now you are paying for Netflix being a movie/series streaming platform, a flmstudio, a game developer and publisher in one subscription. I just need a subscription for the first thing.
Gamma ( @GammaGames@beehaw.org ) English8•7 months agoI hate it! Would be so much better if they funded regular devs to make regular games that are sold like normal
katy ✨ ( @cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 30•7 months agoah yes, spend billions on terrible mobile games and wwe and then wonder why customers are fleeing when their prices keep going up
Lime Buzz (fae/she) ( @SweetCitrusBuzz@beehaw.org ) 20•7 months ago[Sincere] I feel for the poor developers who are going to be abused by being forced to crunch to heck.
