> [@Jonah\_Gravenstein](#): > > Gaming itself, in the way that we understand it now, was a niche for nearly 20 years, until people discovered there was a ■■■■-ton of cash to be made by targeting the general public instead of the limited “nerd” audience. You are totally wrong about this. CCP makes around 350m a year, It’s no where near the 800-900m you get out of games like league, overwatch, etc. 20k people with 10k spending 100k = at best 2 million. 7 million people spending 300 a year = at best 21 million The competition between “catering to the masses” and “niche” Is SO stupid far away from each other its not funny, and catering to the rando’s is the best call to be made, not only for income, but also corporate identity and game health/longevity. EVE SUCKS compared to many other games. Hell, I know companies that make browser games that are making twice the amount ccp makes in a year. > [@Jonah\_Gravenstein](#): > > In the past CCP appear to have made a conscious choice to not pursue the big money, Stupidity. lets think about that. Hey im gona make a business, but i dont need a lot of money. So from the start, i’ll just be at best meh. Who makes a judgement call like that? > [@Jonah\_Gravenstein](#): > > I think that they were well aware of this, I believe that they chose to go their own way knowing the limitations of their design choices and product in relation to the mainstream; that doesn’t make them deserving of your scorn. Yes it does. By the way, the mainstream was not established at this point. IT was just birthing. It’s barely finding its place now. Ill let you know something interesting. Did you know after 9/11 the only industry to always have a increase in income from year to year was gaming? not even porn did this. > [@Jonah\_Gravenstein](#): > > You have as little an idea about the internal thought processes and design decisions that CCP undertook as anybody else, unless of course you are an ex CCP employee that was party to them. Actually this is not true and demonstrates your ignorance. Most gaming studio’s are very similar. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/ccp-hilmar-ccp-falcon-and-ccp-goodfella-reveal-their-plans-for-an-eve-era-of-chaos-in-this-new-interview/178261)._
