I recommended this in it's own thread too. Have been through every ending now. It replays well. I hope they do more of these.

Something was missing. For me anyway. Like it became too burdensome almost, at a certain point, thus taking away from the enjoyment of the process, once I'd hit a road block, have to "Go Back," and then continue on via the other route. Once isn't a big deal. But I think I ended up doing it about 5-6x...and saw two different endings...not even sure. I think there are five altogether from what I read online.

I think it would be better with less moments of choice throughout (I'd guess there was a total of 15-20 or so in this)...maybe 8-12 would be good...thus making it less work. I also think the plot (stressed out kid trying to hit his deadline and perfect the game) coupled with the process made it less enjoyable...if that makes sense.

I'd prefer some sort of other genre.

I agree with that largely, but I'm a concept guy and the concept was pretty great and I thought they actually pulled it off pretty well. I look forward to Future similar content. Could get very interesting.

Choose your own porn? Hmmmm

Well...It's tough to watch but worth a watch simply because it's so hard to believe. The more it goes along it kind of leaves you more and more dumbfounded. Leaves you with more questions than answers. I'll just say that there's something else going on with that family they aren't saying. It'll probably leave you more frustrated than anything else.
 
I watched a few of the true crime shows, and the Ted Bundy tapes. Some of those are pretty well done. But now Netflix thinks all I ever want to watch is true crime. I have to search for other things to watch by name because I can't even browser anything else. Good hell their algorithm thing is so frustrating. Why can't they have like one "thread" or section or whatever for "because you watched" instead of it polluting every section and dictating only a fraction of the catalog that you are allowed to see.

It is also a vicious cycle. So I watch one of those, like making a murderer. The next time I'm casually looking for something to watch those shows are all they offer me, so I go, ok that one looks kind of interesting and you watch a few episodes of another one. Now they decide "hey he watched 2 of these, that's all he ever wants to see", so it gets even harder to find anything else, so I watch another one, and that's it. That's all I will ever see from now on. ****ing hate that so much. As a result I've shifted to Hulu way more than Netflix.
