[@sasquatchanbearhunter]

I honestly think the binge model was always inferior to the weekly model. Specifically because releasing on a weekly basis means everyone is on the same episode so there is more discussion and hype around the show. The more discussion there is, the more people get engaged and in general you feel part of a community (kind of cheesy but true). It also becomes an activity where everyone can get together and watch it once a week. Like the only reason I watched Euphoria was because my friends were doing a watch party every week for it. Watch parties of like 7+ people don’t really happen on the binge model imo.

[@gamepro0167]

Also people who want to binge watch a show can just wait anyway

[@zzeroara9511]

For example, JoJo's bizzare adventure had been airing weekly all the way up until Part 6, where it was put on netflix started releasing it in batches instead. And guess what? Nobody fucking cares. As if Netflix itself isn't already dying, they're butchering one of the most beloved animes of the last decade because they're too lazy not to. At the end of the day, it's just straight up better for something to foster engagement and fan support than for it to be convenient. Them's just the facts.

@@moehasan7534 i am in legitimate awe at this comment. have you been living under a rock for most of your life?

[@sasquatchanbearhunter]

@@moehasan7534 Yea but internet friends aren't the same. Having the weekly thing means more your in person circle is more likely to watch it together. That's way more fun than random internet strangers. If you just want to watch a show, just wait until its fully released and you can do the same thing. Additionally, if we take it from the company's perspective, the hype and discussion is basically free marketing. Additionally, stranger things most recent season had a of hype because they released it in batches. So community hype was able to build up between part 1 and part 2 releases. So similar idea.

[@bloodwolf2609]

NPC is an acronym for something but I can't quite remember what it is, it's on the tip of my tongue, almost like something isn't right with people playing as NPCs but I can't quite put my finger on it.

[@vyldim3401]

Netflix saying they'll move on a weekly model is definitely a dub for fans of a lot of shows. I am a big JoJo's fans and they quite literally killed the hype for it by releasing the season 12 episodes at a time.

[@zzeroara9511]

the episodes came out at all at once and nobody talked about it. Nobody went "HOLY MOLY DID YOU SEE THAT ONE FIGHT THIS WEEK" and that's incredibly detrimental to a fandom. There's basically no new Part 6 fans because nobody is getting the word out at all...

The thing with not doing binge watching is that you can cancel your subscription, come back when the whole season is done, and binge watch it. It doesn't really solve much.

[@albingrahn5576]

it works because people don't wanna wait when they know they can just watch the episodes that are already out. the temptation + fear of getting spolied will make people watch the episodes as they come out and in turn make them pay for a subscription longer

7:16 the infinite money glitch is relating to using other people's money to make money. Get a good enough sales team to sell investing opportunities to investors, use their money to buy that 8 million dollar thing, sell it for 10, give each investor their money back plus interest.

[@blublubblub]

I've paid for our Netflix account for years, since they came to our country. Doing away with releasing every episode at once is far from the worst decision they could make, I hope it helps them return to a sane state of mind, just because they basically invented it doesn't mean they should stick with it. "What will people say?!" is basically a form of the sunken cost fallacy. Placing ads, increasing price, restricting password Sharing that's worse. They've been producing loads of crap, cancelling good shows and didsapointing me in many ways, if they stop failing I'm ok with this. If they go forward with this but fix nothing else... the day I cancel my Netflix subscription I'm never coming back.

And I would be so heart warmed if I knew that all of the npc’s, were people that rely only on the hope that I don’t suddenly decide to abandon the game!!! They depend on ME for survival, so it really gives you a sense of power, so if you want to, you can try and get those naggy annoying npc’s with side quests, off of your world, and all of us Cristian non-drug abusers that make up all of the nft community, really have our hearts broken when people aren’t open minded about cryptocurrencies, nft’s, and the metaverse as a whole, we really hope theese ape minded individuals, will someday understand that they’re sinful and destructive behavior is creating festering infections in our wounds in society and Mother Earth as a whole, which even if treated and healed, the scars will never be forgotten, we hope you can understand that nft’s, cryptocurrency’s, and the metaverse, are our only salvation in this desperate period in humanity😢, god bless, and Jesus loves you 😢😢😢😢❤❤❤❤❤❤.

I mean on the netflix going away from whole season posted is really only useful for kdramas and animes, but anime fans has very much hated the "Post it all" system for netflix, because it then ends up being posted much after all the episodes has been released in japan, where when a streaming platform like crunchyroll can post the season episodly at the same time as it drops in japan in netflix you might be forced to wait 3-4 months for the season to be pushed which then gets more people to rather just pirate it over watching it on netflix which in the anime community has been called netflix jail.

Overall it revives the exciting storytelling that came from cable/satellite tv. So it’s more than just a money grab imo

Besides the subscription piece, binging just sucks. You get so burned out, watercooler discussion is impossible, and the final experience is just not that good, but you can’t choose not to binge unless you avoid the internet entirely for a week (not happening). I enjoy shows way, way more when they’re released episodically. I do think that once a week is too slow, and maybe every three days would be ideal, but weekly still trumps binging.
