Comment on Divinity - Cinematic Announcement Trailer

And im giving you a context “why everyone does it”.

There is also plenty of other benefits in releasing cinematic trailer. First thing of course is to get knowledge of the game out there and create intrests, but it also:

Helps devs to gauge the intrest in their game, See how people react and if necessary change things early in the production, If company is in stock market, it necessary to make clear to the public they are doing something, If they have financial backers its easy to give them reassurences by telling how many times the trailer has been watched and commented. Especially important if they have nothing else going on that quater or financial year, Youtube statistics also give devs insight to their fanbase as they see who are the people watching it, and that helps them gauge things like need for localization

The part about moanin isint necessary about you, but more general thing. Sorry if it felt like attack towards you.

Alright, tell it to the person who has an issue with the trailer.

I only had an issue with the argument. If you have a valid argument, give it to the person who should hear it. It isn’t me.

  It all ready seems little counterintuitive to keep commenting here but you literally commented: “But my main gripe, regardless of the topic, is to say “everyone does it so it’s fine”.” and im trying to answer to that, why everybody does it.
  
  Also if you are speaking in a wider sense. When there are busineses that make hundreds of millions you can be sure there is a reason why they do what they do. For example Amazon does insane amount if research how their checkout works and how to make sure most customers that reach that point would finish the purchace. You can be sure what they do works, so why any other companies would use their time doing the same research when they can just copy the homework of others.

    I don’t understand why you keep going about the exact part I’m telling you I’m not interested in?
    
    I don’t want to know why everyone does this particular thing. I just want people stop using the argumentative fallacy of “everyone does X, so X is fine/good”.
    
    Everyone here is continuing to fixate on the X part, but I’m only commenting on the argumentative fallacy itself, which is separate from the instance of X in this case.
    
    Please, no more? Alright?
