Are ads a good idea?
Posted: Wed Jul 04, 2012 3:28 pm
These few days I've been scanning through various threads and found many problems relating to the price of this game.
Some people suggested having a "full version" and a "free version". I honestly DISAGREE. It would really tick people off, so the numbers of players would plummet rapidly. Without many players, it would not be fun for people with the "full version".
The solution to this problem is advertisements. Why don't you use pop-up ads as revenue??
Benefits to players:
• the game would be FREE
• gold could become a IN-GAME currency which means you won't have to pay real cash for Auora's Blessing and other items of value
• in the game everybody starts out fairly
Benifits to Playmesh:
• a lot of people play Valor, so the ads get viewed a lot
• if you keep the game all free, more people would play, which also means more ad viewers
• right now you can't make money off freeloaders who don't plan to buy anything, but with ads everybody veiws them
• again there is always a steady flow of income (currently, if people stop buying gold, you won't get money)
• reduce the amount of angry mobs!
What do you guys think about this?
