Netflix He’s not experiencing his best moment, even if it’s not as serious as it seems … for now. While it is true that the service has lost users for the first time in its history, it is no less that this figure is not even a scratch for large N VODs. However…

However, it is an obvious sign that things are not going well, and what is worse: it is so a symptom that, if not corrected, can become a tendency and then yes, Netflix would be in trouble. We commented on more than one occasion: unlike the competition, which is made up of giants who make a living off the platforms they sell, Netflix is ​​Netflix and nothing else.

So, to take it seriously, it doesn’t seem likely that Netflix will disappear in the short term, but neither in the medium nor long term, given the prestige it has amassed as a brand. Eye !: as a brand. As a business, it could easily end up in the bag of another giant who takes advantage of the last stumble of a pile of bad things they’ve been doing for so long to seize it.

Yes, yes, now Netflix costs a lot. Or rather, his appreciation is very high, which is not the same thing. But if you don’t fix everything wrong and keep losing subscribers, the situation can change very quickly. It’s because of that the company is considering various scenarios that it can rely on and there is a little bit of everything: clearly self-destructive ideas, more logical movements and events, such as the one at hand.

I don’t want to leave you in any doubt, and if you’re interested in what are clearly self-destructive thoughts or the most logical moves, let me give you a few examples: when it also doesn’t allow you to raise the price of subscriptions and scatter assets for tons of poor quality content …

And following this last formula correcting the model, the more, the better, which according to the company could vary in terms of producing less content, but the vast majority of it does not fit. Identity issues what Elon Musk saidwe leave it to another day because it is the endemic evil of our advanced society.

Apparently self-destructive ideas and more logical moves, events remain and the latest deals with games. As you probably know, Netflix is ​​betting on games, so far timidly, simply as a supplement to its main offering, but with the intention of growing in this environment as well. But it’s not the only way they can enjoy interactive entertainment.

According to The Washinton Post, “in the middle of the Netflix losses, he is betting on a bold strategy around the games.” And this strategy is nothing more than … developing more games? But no: use the attractiveness of the environment to adapt … and vice versa. A bold strategy, no doubt, because it’s not about creating more productions at the level Witcher. On the contrary, although you will know Netflix there will be a bit of everything.

The example they give is Exploding kittens, a popular board game for mobile devices to form a series; and vice versa: just like them with their success foreign thingsIf you switched from a series to a playable format, there will be more series in the chain – probably the ones that were successful – that could eventually become games … without much fanfare, yes, because the range of Netflix games is still limited to mobile.
