- Comment on As The Outer Worlds 2 hits $80, director says "we don't set the prices for our games" and wishes "everybody could play" Obsidian's new RPG 1 week ago:
With a game like there has probably been existence market research to account for how much buzz the game will get. They may even be counting on the buzz to sell more copies at full price.

That is exactly how people making these decisions think. Its all numbers to them, there are no people involved in their thinking.

right, so that would put you into the 50% or the lower 25%, but there are people that will buy higher price, and as long as there is 1% willing to buy before the first sale it is worth it for them.

If you assume 25% of player will buy at 80, 50% will buy at $50, and 25% will buy at $20. Per 100 buyers they stand to make $5,000. However if they start at $50 with 75% of buys buying at that price, they will make $4,250. This is about maximizing profit by selling to fans with deep pockets first then discounting latter to captured the rest of the player base.

Never really was my problem to begin with. I am going to write my report with or without his information, its just that lot of people will be angry about the report without his information. But even then, its still not my problem because he will be the one that has to address the issues in the report.

If I have to come to you desk to ask for something I have likely lost respect for you and I don’t care that you think I am a whiny bitch. Different business units have different priorities, but you should still set the expectation of when you will be able to get to it.

CYA is very important but some time you just need to get shit done and this is where we are at. My manager and director are both working it too.

What is the implication for Lemmy and other federated platforms? Is running a Lemmy instance going to now come with a huge legal risk and moderation requirements that three people with day jobs can’t handle?
