    Instead, they are asking all who want to play on mobile to add a Netflix subscription. What?

      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.

      Instead? Instead of what? Just not developing a mobile version?

        No, you claimed it’s only two people and I shouldn’t punch down. Instead, these two people think everyone else should pick up a Netflix subscription just to play their game. Boo hoo

          The game’s been out for five years, they gave it away for free on epic’s shop, it’s available on three other operating systems without subscription, do you want them to come round and suck you off too?

            No. That’s a lot of words to not understand that I just don’t want a Netflix subscription in order to play a game. Hope I have a PC, what? But, since you finished it off with absurdity I have no more reason to speak with you.

              OK great, yeah nobody except the people profiting off it likes games being locked behind a subscription, but the only absurdity here is your sense of entitlement
