If it helps someone said they come on to my chat to hear the comedic undertone...(I am my worst enemy...I admit every mistake usually with an OOFA or Oh Shizit and encourage others to find theirs) Gamer language is used on our voice chat and we are a diverse group of owls so our politically correctness tends to be broken but with that being said. We became a family by having each others back and if you are in our chat you could be a unicorn like me and still be loved...(no I am not a real life unicorn lmao but I would have loved to be)
In the world of video games, especially in the realm of free-to-play (F2P) games or games with in-app purchases, the existence of players who spend money on microtransactions (often referred to as "whales") is crucial for the financial sustainability of the game. These players are called "whales" because they represent a small percentage of the player base but contribute a significant portion of the game's revenue.
**Whales**: Whales are players who are willing to spend substantial amounts of money on in-game items, virtual currency, cosmetic upgrades, or other microtransactions. They can significantly impact the game's revenue stream, making it feasible for the game to continue running, receive updates, and support its player community.
**Sharks**: In addition to whales, there are "sharks" or "dolphins," referring to players who spend money on the game but not at the same level as whales. These players still contribute to the game's revenue, although not to the extent of whales.
**Guppies**: On the other hand, "guppies" represent the majority of players who play the game for free or may make occasional small purchases. While they don't generate as much revenue individually, their collective engagement and numbers are essential for the overall health of the player community and can attract new spenders.
For F2P games, the goal is to strike a balance between keeping the game enjoyable for free players to maintain a healthy player base and providing attractive offerings for spenders to support the game financially.
It's worth noting that some games have adopted alternative monetization models, such as one-time purchases or subscriptions, where all players pay upfront or periodically to access the game's content. These models aim to avoid over-reliance on whales and maintain a more equitable distribution of revenue among the player base.
In summary, the presence of spenders, particularly whales, is vital for the financial sustainability of many video games, especially those with a free-to-play model and microtransactions. Developers and publishers must carefully manage their monetization strategies to maintain a thriving game ecosystem that caters to players of all spending preferences.
