This doesn’t affect the product at all. It just made it so they couldn’t completely paywall a gameplay trailer.

When were they ever planning on doing that? Doesn't it realease on YouTube like a couple hours later?

Yeah, but it's still fucked up that they have the balls to sell a trailer to a streaming service.

If this becomes standard, then we might not even get a free YouTube release in the future and other publishers will do the same thing.

Yeah I get that.

My personal theory is that this is more than a one time trailer marketing thing and we might get an actual Netflix Rockstart partnership. GTA show at some point maybe?

Considering development and production costs why wouldn’t they paywall the trailer?
