    You could cry couldnt you, what a colossal waste of money. Just make a good game, spend the cash there, word will get around.

      Really good games flopped before because they weren’t marketed well. Marketing is budgeted for productions of any size, and influencer marketing in general is very effective for something like videogames. Larger amounts were spent on TV ads, or printing campaigns.

    I just wish companies would stop releasing games to streamers only. It does nothing but piss me off when I see someone playing a game, find it interesting then find out it doesn’t even exist to buy yet … no demos, no test play versions no nothing…just coming soon.

    Makes me not want to play it anymore
