Oh wow, I had no interest at all in trying these previously. Reducing the quality of the games by adding ads and in app purchases is exactly the thing that will push me to give it a try.
I’ve never even heard of netflix having games on their platform.
Eh, Poinpy is actually a lot of fun.
I take it that the word you wrote, is in fact a game on Netflix, and not just some word you made up?
wasn’t lack of microtransactions and ads the whole point of these?
The only benefit to Netflix games is that these games have no ads or IAP.
After the latest Dave Chappelle, I made Netflix walk the plank.
That’s a shame, just before they were gonna release the Dave Chapelle’s Transphobia Simulator
Netflix continuing to piss and shit and cum its pants after the one quarter where they had -1% subscriber growth, and the company lost 75% of its value. Investors are such smart cookies.
I didn’t know Netflix has games…because I canceled a long time ago when they went to shit and raised prices.
Netflix has games?
On mobile, yes. You can even play GTA 3, VC and SA
they can be easily patched to bypass Netflix account requirements btw, you only miss out on cloud saves
Really? How? I’ve been wanting to play World of Goo again but the only version available is the netflix one
there’s a non-netflix one tho
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.twodboy.worldofgoofullLink doesn’t work in Australia I’m afraid - lots of corporations have a big thing for giving us the shitty end of the stick.
wait what?
the original port isn’t supposed to be region locked?
but also it doesn’t work on android 14 anymore, Play Store gives me an error saying it’s not compatible with the device.Far as I can tell, the original port’s apk isn’t region locked, so much as the play store page is. Either that, or people who didn’t buy it before the netflix port went up can no longer view the page.
Netflix has games? Are they real games or trivia games?
I think they had exclusive rights to the phone version of Into The Breach and funded the expansion for it
This abusive business model is the dominant strategy.
If we allow this to continue, there will be nothing else.
Only legislation will fix this.
Unsubscribing from Netflix fixes this.
As if it’s just Netflix.
The point stands. Vote with your wallet.
Hasn’t worked yet.
A victory isn’t the totality of Netflix as a company sinking in the ground. It’s every step along the way, including directing your money toward those that respect you as a customer. Pretty much unanimously the best game of last year went to a game that’s sold DRM-free, with no DLC, with the ability to play mulitplayer without some stupid live service strings attached, and it sold about 10M copies. Rewarding those games is the other side of the coin of voting with your wallet.
Again, not a Netflix problem. This is becoming the entire industry. More big names are using it than avoiding it. There is almost no cost to adding this greedy bullshit.
We’re not going to shop our way out of this.
Don’t play big games using it then. That’s how you shop your way out of it. If you think every game is full of bad monetization practices, you’re not looking very hard for your video games. There’s an asterisk there on the addiction that a lot of them prey on, but if you’re sick of playing a game where they keep asking you for money instead of letting you enjoy the game, play a different game. There are too many great games that don’t bother with that nonsense.
Its easy as fuck to unsubscribe from netflix. I’m completely guilt free by not paying them money
Lol at that title. I just saw some post talking about how “Netflix games was my most used service”. Like, that can’t be true, either that or you don’t really play games lol.
It was a sponsored post on Android authority. That website really went down hill from a decade ago
