netflix is publishing single-player games that require a subscription to play, with no option to own a physical (or digital) copy; this is a massive leap toward exactly what the gaming community has been doom posting about for over a decade. it's really no surprise, as this is a natural continuation of models like GamePass/PSPlus, which provide "free" games as long as the subscription is active. the gaming-industrial complex sneaked this on us under the guise of "but it's a good deal!"
and now they're taking the next step in their literally-you-will-own-nothing business strategy. what can we do? stop giving them money. we are at a turning point; if Netflix is successful with this model, other major gaming publishers will adopt the model and then we'll truly find ourselves in the apocalyptic gaming wasteland that SlayerFan87 soothsayed about on GameFAQs back in 2006. imagine current state of television/movies, all the streaming services you need, now imagine that with games.
(yes this is about Cozy Grove 2 lol)
