Lisbeth_Salander;n10147442 said:are you that guy who was planning to create a rumor involving the game? anyway, thanks obama
Shavod;n10147782 said:That was before all the controversies started happening.
Lisbeth_Salander;n10153112 said:On the good side fake rumors generate attention to the game.
On the bad side it generate attention to the game (which goes against CDPR's strategic marketing vision) and also misleading facts.
Snowflakez;n10153162 said:What's their strategic marketing vision? I'm assuming it's the whole "keep things quiet until we have something big to show" sort of deal.
Lisbeth_Salander;n10153242 said:Yep. Marcin Iwinski said that CDPR will follow Bethesda's strategy of launching the game a short period after the announcement. (Bethesda announced Fallout 4 in 2015's E3 and released it 6 months later in november of 2015 and it sold really well)
But why use this strategy?
In my view It's all about using Cyberpunk 2077's trending value to favor its marketing.
In other words it's all about managing people's interest with something new. Most people have a pretty short attention span specially in an over saturated informational age. When a new product appears to someone, it is usual for most people to want said product immediately, but this person's interest fades over time. So if you keep showing the same game for over a year, people will see it as something old and even if the product is something great that desire may have been long gone. By making the gap between the announcement and the release short, it not only manipulates people's desire of wanting something new, but it creates a marketing opportunity of focusing every one of CDPR's strategies in only a few months. So instead of making a long marketing campaign that lasts for 2 years, they instead will probably make one that lasts 6 months in order to achieve greater impact.

Snowflakez;n10153292 said:That's one thing I really enjoyed about Fallout 4's campaign, even if the end result wasn't necessarily to my liking.

Snowflakez;n10153292 said:There's actually quite a few benefits to the user with a campaign like this, too - we get gameplay videos closer together, without 3-month-long "dry spells" that typically accompany major releases (Skyrim, anyone?). We can get information and interviews packed into a tighter time frame so we never feel like we're waiting ages for something interesting.

"Y-yeah, I'm ok...Thanks for the assist with this jerk." she stammers, looking at the now stiffening heap of a once human. "Where did you learn to do that, if you don't mind me asking?" The old man, slyly grinning at the girl who, under different circumstances, could have been his grand daughter, replied: "Yeah doll, I could tell you. But that would require that you either have a drink with me or I have to kill you in an alley somewhere. C'mon, let's have a seat at this booth over here and I'll tell you all about it...."
Snowflakez;n10153782 said:Context?
Snowflakez;n10142002 said:Jesus, Mary and Joseph TLJ was awful. I re-watched 2049 now that it's available digitally, though, and that managed to get the garbage out of my mind.
