2018-01-19 19:00:05 UTC

2018-01-19 19:00:14 UTC  

mobile games? 😂

2018-01-19 19:00:18 UTC  

@JadenFrostwolf might be that shapiro is using all of them, but it sounds fake when he talks about them

2018-01-19 19:00:33 UTC  

Well didnt think that people mind anyway

2018-01-19 19:00:40 UTC  

its the same with all kind of talk show like sponsorships really, with ben.

2018-01-19 19:00:42 UTC  

Yeah, he does, but meh. I try not to judge people's intent or try to read their minds.

2018-01-19 19:00:50 UTC  

they are all written the same way so its clear its just another ad

2018-01-19 19:01:06 UTC  

only the ads are being recorded live, rather than pre-recorded

2018-01-19 19:01:15 UTC  

So with tim specifically

2018-01-19 19:01:20 UTC  

Tim pool soundboard with microtransactions to unlock every phrase

2018-01-19 19:01:24 UTC  

its just like any ad on tv with your favorite celeb really

2018-01-19 19:01:35 UTC  

an entire page dedicated to every time he said "I used to work for vice"

2018-01-19 19:02:15 UTC  

And "I'm mixed." <:Kappa:327142715592540171>

2018-01-19 19:02:17 UTC  

tim worked for vice? next you're telling me he is mixed race and wears beanies 😉

2018-01-19 19:02:18 UTC  

tower defense where you refute accusations of being alt-right

2018-01-19 19:02:40 UTC  

So people actually came forward to promo Mobile games? Well I guess its not uncommon in this day and age.

2018-01-19 19:02:56 UTC  

The marketing budgets for some of them rival aaa companies.

2018-01-19 19:02:58 UTC  

There are some mobile games that aren't money vacuums.

2018-01-19 19:03:19 UTC  

They're just rare, and even more rarely are they actually good or interesting.

2018-01-19 19:03:28 UTC  

the difference between mobile game and aaa game is getting smaller every day

2018-01-19 19:03:44 UTC  

yea the vpn stuff has no script or anything

2018-01-19 19:03:53 UTC  

particularly with Mr. "Games as a Service" Ea head.

2018-01-19 19:03:55 UTC  

none of the proposed sponsors have any script other than teach people about it

2018-01-19 19:03:55 UTC  

Actually, so then, how hard would it be to get a sponsor?

2018-01-19 19:04:12 UTC  

Though I am assuming you got some.

2018-01-19 19:04:14 UTC  

the other issue is that if I just did commercials for myself would I end up making more?

2018-01-19 19:04:27 UTC  

theres something about getting a service that people are more into than dontaing to me

2018-01-19 19:04:49 UTC  

the popular mobile games are 100% exploiting psycology, IIRC there was a Y combinator talk about how they attach triggers to anxiety to improve user engagement

2018-01-19 19:05:04 UTC  

So, doing ads for products or services that you like vs ones that you think your audience would like?

2018-01-19 19:05:19 UTC  

all games exploit psychology

2018-01-19 19:05:33 UTC  

What is your perspective of you current audience tim? Just curious.

2018-01-19 19:05:46 UTC  

in fact, when Destiny was coming out, the bragged about actually hiring a psychologist to make the game addicting

2018-01-19 19:05:52 UTC  

I'd say just do whatever interests you. There seems to be at least *some* crossover between what you like and your audience likes.

2018-01-19 19:07:36 UTC  

Besides hearthstone?

2018-01-19 19:07:40 UTC  

what do you mean commercials for yourself? your patreon etc.?
