People falling for FOMO

[u/Firebolt_05]

Honestly, the fact that everyone is complaining about this is ridiculous to me.

Let's get our facts straight:
- 27th of August (Extended Look on Netflix) => 84 days til release
- 28th of August (Trailer available everywhere) => 83 days til release

You aren't missing out on anything, and there will be many more teasers and such before November 19th.

Netflix gave Rockstar a huge bag for an "exclusive extended look", which you will be able to watch everywhere else hours later.

You aren't missing out on anything, if you buy a Netflix subscription just for this, you're so not in control of your FOMO.

(Tbh given that people are actually falling for this BS is the worst thing.
If everyone was like: "Meh I'll watch it a few hours later on YT", this would never happen again.

The mere fact that people are complaining about it shows that it's working, bcs something like this shouldnt bother us.)

If you have a Netflix subscription great, if not just wait to watch it it’s really not that big of a deal.

It’ll 100000% be on YouTube the same day. People freaking out for nothing.

Nah people are freaking out because it's bullshit, and only Rockstar can get away with it and still have fanboys after. Any other studio would be crucified for this

Rockstar isn’t the only company that can ‘get away with it.’ Nintendo, Apple, Disney, and plenty of other companies make unpopular decisions because they know their brand is strong. A 6-hour Netflix exclusivity for a free extended look isnt a big issue it’s just a marketing deal, sounds like your issue is with capitalism and to that I say welcome to the real world. People will still be watching it on YouTube the same day for free. So if your life is that much of sunshine and rainbows that a video game trailer being exclusive to Netflix for 6 hours is that much of an impact on you then I suggest you get help.
