@andrearene@WhatsGood_Games - I'm a week late on replying... but I listen through to the end of each episode and have since... like, episode 10ish? I think that's when I discovered the show.
@ForbiddenRelic@KahliefAdams And it's just going to get worse with the consolidation behind N - F - T -s (which I have hyphenated not because I'm an idiot, but just so I don't get mobbed by bros)
@ForbiddenRelic@KahliefAdams Agree that it's going to get worse. Not sure I'd blame console gamers as the problem. If anything there are more mobile gamers than anyone else. The point is that when you're a big enough company you get to mostly push the market around if you can get enough investors behind it
@ForbiddenRelic@KahliefAdams So this take doesn't bother me at all. I'm purely talking from a realism perspective.
Worth noting that the billions the company makes are in microtransactions. This has far surpassed game sales for them. That's where the bulk of the growth has been in the last decade
@KahliefAdams I'm sure there are good arguments against what I've put out; but if you're going to base your game on addictive gameplay, then just let people subscribe, get all the content, and just play.
@KahliefAdams I think it is imperative to find a middle ground - because while I think we should just take MTX outback old yeller style, I also know that it is fiscally an impossibility. I think from there it depends on the style of game...
@KahliefAdams Mobile F2P is different. At that point... honestly? Just go the Spotify route and ask people for a $10/month subscription. Then let them just play.
@KahliefAdams So let's say AAA. I don't think you should have microtransactions that more than double the cost of your game. This doesn't include DLC. Sell your 'fits in bigger packs, or whatever.
@thesunismygirl I like how... whomever wrote this has been copy-pasting the same text to women for YEARS. My friend got this same message I think 2-3 years ago
Look I know I'm off Twitter mostly and late to the party on this; but, I just have to say that as a Jew with acid reflux, if there's anyone out there who should be worried about the gazpacho it should be me OK?
@cconowitch@venturemaidens OK - I've been off Twitter for awhile, but signed on to say CONGRATS! I've been following you since... episode 6 or 7 I think, and am super excited for the grand finale. I can't join in person tonight - but much love to the team from a big fan πππ(and am excited for the book!)
