What do you think the impression is?
The average customer does not really dig very deep and read everything there is to know if the game is labeled 33% off, for instance. You overstate customer behaviour. Surely you did not thoroughly read forums, reviews and game content of the 48 games that you currently own on steam?
Furthermore, your previous post regarding Civilization is a perfect example how "whispers of P2W" do not affect new customers to a significant extent. |
I stand by the notion that more customers = more money, because it does. you can get way more money out of the huge number of potential players, than you can ever out of a small, already existing playerbase who clearly aren't happy about paying for this content.
The core of this type of business model escapes your notion. The net revenue from an unknown number of these DLC's over an indefinite period of time can potentially be greater than the net revenue of the game itself. While this is applied, new customers can be "hooked" by all types of discount sales of CoH2.
These DLC sales are independent of the efforts to acquire new customers. |
Its mind boggling where the hell you "read this between the lines".
It isn't there. There is no evidence for it. Its all in your own fucking head, and your own internal bigoted interpretation of what you FEEL people are saying.
Nobody has said they cant afford the DLC.
Nobody has said the DLC is problematic, because they "can't afford it".
If it turns out the DLC's have poor sales figures, it could be argued that players cannot afford it. The players in this thread, or in general, do not need to explicitly state they cannot afford them. These are "implied preferences", you should know this after 2 years of business studies, nurse Sebastian. |
the thoughtful reply I put here earlier
Your thoughtful reply only views it from the customer's perspective. From Relic's perspective this strategy is potentially the best if a decent amount of players are willing to spend a small amount on these DLC's. We do not know these figures yet.
You repeatedly mention "more costumers = more money", but these DLC's are aimed at current owners of CoH2. This type of Bait and Hook model certainly works, especialy since many players already took the "bait" by buying CoH2. |
Telling a complete stranger he fails at everything and that he should go scream at a wall is enough to get me started.
Ha Ha, he got you to go all out though, you are not a complete stranger anymmore, Marky Mark! On that note, do you consider it a good idea to post all your personal stuff on a forum? |
Are you normal? One day you gonna find girlfriend and you will hate people who tag you on facebook. Last thing I want to have, is for my girlfriend to sit down to order pizza and see how much time I spent playing COH2 (Yes, I lie)
Other than that I think its good idea
Then dont forget to turn your steam profile on private . |
I continue happily through life in the company of my numerous millionaire businessman buddys from my school days, including 2 years of business studies, who would never accept a peasant like you into their midst.
Would your numerous millionaire businessmen buddys be so kind as to buy me some DLC commanders, nurse Sebastian? |
Guys, Guys, Guys....I thought we agreed to slow topics featuring Nullist down to give me some time to catch up on all these beautiful quotes.
If I was you, I'd delete my account and start afresh. You aren't going anywhere, fast.
@GTTV: this is great first hand advice.
Fuck this game. Fuck Relic. Fuck the people who defend them.
And I've played every Relic release. Ever.
-I'm out
You'll be back.

much appreciated, really modern history is not studied deeply enough imho
Yes, because after reading hundred thousands of books regarding modern history you were just in need of these appalling youtube videos where an ignorant American tells you WW2 was most definately hilarious. |
Wow, just wow, i didnt think you could make less sense until this post.
Luckily it is not up to you to decide what makes sense and what does not. |
