To get the conversation going and flowing strong consistently, this game thread needs
chatterbox, lots of
chatterboxes (okay that's an over-exaggeration but I hope at least someone gets the reference
).
What I noticed on the game thread that has large interactions are that they have 'dedicated'
chatterboxes posting just about anything, screenshots, memes, conspiracy theories/speculations/controversies, waifu wars every now and then, Patreon posts (about updates or progress report), patrons bonus renders (low res), fan arts etc. While most of these
chatterboxes are avid fans, I can't exclude the possibility that perhaps 1 or 2 are 'hired' or at least 'linked' with the developers.
There need at least 3, first to start the ball rolling, the second to put up an argument, the third to counter the argument and others (actual fans) chipped in. It doesn't have to be strictly sequential, the 3rd person with counter argument might post a little bit later, or he doesn't need to because some fans beat him to it.
But yeah, the main questions remains
how to attract and have 'dedicated'
chatterboxes exclusively for this game?
Although, this sounds kinda off-topic since we are not really discussing the game anymore
.
So, back to the game, to get the most players*, usually the game need to target a specific group/type of players* (the majority) and create contents that appeals to that specific group/type.
So, if anyone knows (with supporting backing data evidence) what is the majority group/type of players*, then
Projekt: Passion contents can be tailored for that specific group for it to gain the most players*.
(Personally, I am not in favor of this approach because I just love this game to be made just how
Classy Lemon wants it to be and not be tailored to what fans want.)
*Players mainly refers to players who are also (financial) supporters or backers.
