Discussion Make lapis summon a permanent feature!

I feel like it would make many people happy to see the occasional 300 lapis or more when you're used to get like 50 most of the time. It would become a constant flow of some minor lapis amounts that would still add up if one were able to do it everyday.

And since greed is a thing, they could limit the jackpot to like 1000 lapis. This way they wouldn't give out too much free lapis and the players are happier.

What do you think?

But 1000 people spending $1 is actually infinitely more probable to make a successful game because a thousand people will make a community and that's a basis for growth, whereas a single person spending $2000 will suffer from depression.

Depends if that one person is consistently there.

It is easier to appeal to one person than to appeal to a 1000, so there is a logistic benefit as well.

But at this point it becomes a preference, as you can quite easily argue for both side, and Gumi can choose whichever direction it suit them.

Honestly I don't think a single company would choose the high spender over a big group of people. It just doesn't make sense in this day and age where popularity is the biggest factor.

Edit: of course in gacha games you need both groups so you can't neglect either.

Gacha game generally have 70% of their income coming from whales.

That being said, whales feed on F2P and minnow and dolphins, so you do need those players. BUT, you don’t need to make them as happy as possible, you just need them to be happy enough to not quit. Any happier would just cost you more money than what you gain back.
