If Netflix cared about what members like, the games wouldn't be there in the first place.
Say what you will, and I agree, but Civ VI on the phone is awesome. And since I'm paying for the subscription anyways it's kinda nice
I agree civ6 is awesome on a phone.
However, if you own the game on Steam, you could have been playing it on your phone long before Netflix ever opened their games division with Steam Link.
Civ6 is literally the only game I actually use Steam Link for (it's the only game that plays nice with the touch controls and isn't affected by any lag because it's turn-based anyway).
Oh FYI not sure if you want to go down that rabbit hole, but... If you stream via sunshine/moonlight with hardware acceleration 4k120 is playable with minimal input lag. I stream Cyberpunk, RDR2, Indiana Jones to my OLED in the basement.
I'm usually playing over the internet when I am away from home. On LAN, everything works as if I wasn't even streaming, barring the occasional little hiccup in the networking traffic.
