[quote]Do you even know what the roll of a publisher is?[/quote]
I would assume every person within each publishing company has a different roll. I prefer dinner rolls.
They don’t make their money via micro transactions strictly, but the role (edited from roll because word pends the legitimacy of my post lol, what an ass hat) of the publisher and developer relationship plays a strong hand in how those profits are doled out.
For example EA has a huge stake in Dices micro transactions as EA actually owns Dice respectively and EA is the company that also owns the rights to the video gaming platform of anything Star Wars.
Activision does not own Bungie, does not own the Destiny IP and simply has a partnership with Bungie regarding a ten year publishing deal of Bungies game Destiny exclusively.
The micro transactions created by Bungie are strictly a Bungie revenue stream. Activision will certainly give Bungie their two cents and may make a small percentage of the micro transactions revenue that Bungie pulls in, but Bungie itself is the main company capitalizing on the sales of micro transactions, hence Bungie stating its purpose to fund the live team and grow the game through said micro transactions.
The idea that Activision is the one making all the money is completely false and shows your naivety towards how gaming contracts actually work and again, the actual relationship between an independent developer and a publisher.
Why do you think Hello Games took all the slack for no mans sky and took the blunt of the refunds on the game and not Sony, because again that was an independent developer contract with Sony being the publisher.
Learn the difference between companies contracted by publishers and companies owned by publishers/owning the IP the developer is using.
How is one supposed to take your opinion seriously when you keep using "roll" instead of "role"? Kind of takes away from your credibility -if there was any in the first.
Roll:
1. move or cause to move in a particular direction by turning over and over on an axis.
2. a cylinder formed by winding flexible material around a tube or by turning it over and over on itself without folding.
Role:
1. an actor's part in a play, movie, etc.
2. the function assumed or part played by a person or thing in a particular situation
"Learn the difference between..." "roll" and "role" before you use it in a statement constructed with the intention of invalidating someone's opinion.
