How durable is the #CustomerBase?
How dependent is revenue on the owner or a handful of relationships?
What capabilities would become more valuable inside a larger platform?

yeah it's super sketchy. :/ for better or worse it's probably not functionally that different for us since most of our site content is already posted directly to IG/FB and it continues to not be viable to fully leave the platforms bc so much of our customerbase is there :(

Destiny fans, you haven’t won anything. You have been deemed valuable enough by Sony to be leveraged as a live service customerbase whose only purpose will be a reliable source of revenue that will justify all of their godawful, destructive business decisions to shareholders feeling a lack of faith.

Watching @patagonia.com get absolutely ripped to shreds for trying to sue an activist drag queen for no goddamn reason has been delightful to watch
Like they're about to learn reallyyyyy quick how much of their customerbase is queer and doesn't put up with money-hungry B.S. (read: a LOT)

The Wii walked so the Switch could run a marathon. :)
It introduced a completely new customerbase (i feel like) to gaming, plus it slam-dunked the motion controls. Wii Bowling was simply magic!

People (and COMPANIES) vastly underestimate the need for tech literacy. If your product is unreliable, you'd have to run years of research and spend millions of dollars to figure it out.
Or you could make it easily repairable so that your customerbase can INFORM YOU OF THE FLAWS.

The moment Bad Dragon and Furrjoi realized that their customerbase was comprised of the pay-any-price bourgeois was the day that they alienated themselves of a future catering to the average person. I fully expect one of them to have an IPO in the next 20 years.

Quite welcome!
And don't forget,if you're an artist doing commissions,you'll also get customers who like what you like,thus you'll get to draw it more if you're willing to be open about it,and build a customerbase who enjoys the same thing!
Don't think you have to worry about being judged ❤️

yep, i said that same thing, which is even better because a lot of the AI reddit threads are getting more and more pissed off at the AI companies because their new models are either worse, more expensive, more restrictive, or all of the above lmao.
theyre pissing off their own customerbase.

wishful (maybe naive) thinking but im kinda hoping they bring all these "new" games to the og switch in like a year or so. making your entire customerbase spend close to A THOUSAND DOLLARS to play your shiny new game is kinda shitty.

There's a Tumblr post I'm trying to find but can't. It was referencing work that is satire, or a critique of e.g fascism or masculinity, which fans instead take earnestly. I don't know if the quote was *exactly* this metaphor, but it was *something* like it, condemning the source material

yeah people staking their "livelihoods" on a game that can, at any point in time, completely take away your entire customerbase or you yourself whenever it feels like it always felt like a rather odd decision
granted these people dont exactly seem like the types to make good decisions anyway

you know what existentially terrifies these ghouls, though? you know what’ll keep them up at night?
CONSUMER REVOLT.
their entire customerbase turning on them, starving them of revenue. mass cancellation of services. no money being spent in their storefront. user data going silent.

…do you believe that these companies truly “opt in” to having their games be featured as mainstage titles at an event whose sole purpose for existing is open entry bracketed competition for the precise audience & customerbase that not only play them but act as word of mouth marketing staff for them?

It’s only “the direction we are all heading in” insofar as we financially support it, and that all begins with people - the desired customers in said customerbase - not being critical of it when it’s announced. If we normalize it in conversation, then we pave the path to normalizing it in practice.
