If the adverts are locked behind paywalls, it really doesn't bode well for in game content.
They said that “they want to reach a wider audience”, so that’s why they’re doing it. At least it’s coming to the Rockstar games website and YouTube 6 hrs later.
I feel like they could’ve done it differently, but I get it. I guess. Idk, all corporations suck at this point.
Erratic? Is that the right adjective to use?
inconsistent, irregular, or unpredictable
I'd say their desire to be FiRsT and sPeCiAl is quite predictable. That's how discord makes its money, why the crApple is "premium", and why digital presales exist.
This is how I view anyone still paying Netflix while constantly complaining about their "second screen" policy.
If you hate how shitty modern Netflix is, yet you still pay a subscription to them... YOU ARE PART OF THE PROBLEM, FUCKFACE!!

I don't have a Netlifx subscription but it worked fine couple of years ago. What's so shitty about it now? Do they have availability issues? Ads? Bugs? Less content? Or is the only issue that they don't let people share accounts anymore?
The "Second Screen" complaint is that they produce shows with shallow depth. So simple that you still get it while focussing on your main screen (e.g. Instagram, Tiktok on your phone).
Shitty content is definitely not just Netlix issue. A lot of content from many different providers is simply bland now. The issue is that production companies rely on algorithms to decide what will sell. "People liked this show about ghosts and this show about pirates so let's make a show about ghost pirates". That being said, many original shows are still huge success so they still try to branch out and try new things. So yes, there's more and more mediocre, bland content but it affects all platform and all content, not just Netflix.
For me personally fragmentation is the big issue. If someone made "Spotify for movies", where I could watch literally all the shows on a single subscription, without ads, with good UI and interoperability between platforms I would pay for it. I will not pay for 10 subscriptions to watch one show from each one of them. I think Netflix as a platform is fine, it's the market that shitty.
Preaching to the choir here
I dont have a Netflix subscription.
What's this referencing?
Netflix made a deal with Rockstar to run a GTA VI ad on Netflix six hours before it's on other platforms.
Wow that's really dumb
This is just a racket to get money from streamers because they need to be the first ones to see it to drive up engagement. I will wait until some youtuber makes a video with the most important parts. What I find unbelievable is that they made an announcement for an ad for a game.
