hey guys I'm back for another video and today I'm gonna be talking about the
potential monetization of high tell so before I even get started this game has
a ton of hype around it many minecraft youtubers are claiming
that this is where trends are going to be going for them a lot of people aren't
really happy with the current state of Minecraft anymore and they're excited to
see how great of a game it's turning out that high detail looks like it's going
to be so if you take a look on their website you're going to notice that the
hypixel team stated that they are not currently sure what their monetization
policy is going to be regarding the game and at first I didn't think much of it
and I was like yeah I'll easily drop 20 bucks in this game and be happy with it
but now I've given it some thought and I think it's actually crucial that
hypixel gets this right with hightail so I'm going to state right off the bat I
think it would be in the best interest of hightail to make the game
free-to-play of course there's always gonna be some way to make money which is
what I'm getting to later I'm pretty sure that none of us are expecting the
game to be triple-a prices like 60 bucks like Call of Duty style if that happens
it's pretty obvious that the game is going to only be accessible to people
that either have money or have very generous family members that would be
willing to you know get them a game like that and I think the game would still
succeed if it was $60 but I feel like there'd be a lot of people that just
simply don't get it because they don't want to invest that much in something
they might not like there's gonna be a lot of kids that just can't get it in
general a lot of parents aren't going to be willing to pay that much for a game I
can tell you for a fact back when I wanted to buy minecraft I asked my
mother since of course at the time I was only like 12 13 years old and at first
she didn't even trust the website enough to send 20 bucks which at the time that
cost that much I believe that the best course of action is that hightail should
be free to play so you can get it from their website I guess download their
launcher and be able to play the game straight away and make an account and
have a good time playing the game without paying any money
as far as monetization is concerned then I think the best course of action after
that would be similar to what discord does almost everyone watching this video
probably has noticed how discord basically came out of nowhere and
completely killed off Skype and teamspeak in 1,000 it is an amazing
service and it has changed my life personally in
the past year and a half because it's connected me with tons and tons and tons
of people that I would have never talked to before it made a lot of communities
spring up out of nowhere including the hypixel community discord which is very
young but what I think is intriguing about discord is that the program is
free it's free to use there's no obligation to pay money whatsoever but
there is a exclusive club and that's called discord nitro it's a subscription
service I believe and what it allows you to do is change your profile picture to
something animated and it ups the size of files that you can distribute and
there's probably a few other things mixed in there that I'm not really sure
about but the point I'm trying to make is that what high tale could do is be
free to play maybe even have some microtransactions for the aesthetics but
I think the best way for them to make money would be with a an exclusive nitro
or in this case probably pro club kind of like MVP plus plus on hypixel the
server and minecraft I think that would be the best bet
what would hightail exclusive members get um I'm not sure yet you know I
haven't gotten a chance to play the game maybe it would give them access to
developer tools maybe it would maybe there could be a developer package
although I don't think that's something that would be a good idea to monetize
considering the amount of people the percentage of people playing the game
that would be then you know a lot of modifying it animating and scripting
their own characters would be a very small minority so I think the best bet
would be to something to do with cosmetics or maybe emotes in addition to
like hightail pro members or exclusive members I think it would also make a lot
of sense that community servers once popped up that they will have their own
stores where you can buy things like ranks or you know any sort of in server
transaction again like high pixel I think it'd be a good idea to get to
endorse it officially and then to take a profit from a percentage of the profit
so say hightail were to have its own servers right where they make a hundred
percent of the profit because they're the ones running it but then some other
person decides they're gonna start up a big server Network and they know the ins
and outs of how you know people work and they know what game modes would be
really fun and how to get a lot of people online and playing and then they
offer in-store transactions and stuff I think it'd be really neat if the game
had official support for these kind of custom shops but they would get some
percentage of anything that's bought on these community service so maybe twenty
percent maybe thirty percent it depends thirty percent would be pretty safe I
would think cuz that's like basically what YouTube does with super chat
donation and who knows it could be whatever but I
think it might be a good idea to go with the sort of policy that you're losing
money to begin with but in order to do that you are then you're making your
money back elsewhere so there's gonna be a lot of people a lot of young kids that
play the game and they'll never be able to play anything serious to the game
because their parents won't even let them have access to a card or credit
card but they will still increase hype for the game and then you would have the
people that have a lot of money and would spend a lot on whether it be
cosmetics or server packages that are not even officially made by hypixel
I think it would be extremely beneficial if they let that sort of thing happen
because then they would pay a lot of money towards these servers and then
hightail we get a percentage or hypixel you know percentage of course
everybody's been referencing fortnight I'm not going to go into detail on it
because you've probably heard it a hundred other places before but it's
obvious that one of the reasons why for tonight is as popular as it is is
because it's free anybody can just install the game and get playing and I
think that is something that led to its success and that being said even with
even for people that have money it is still a barrier to have a game cost
money for example I was hanging out with my friend Sebastian yesterday and
recently the epic games launcher announced that subnautica was going to
be free for a certain time if you were to install the epic games launcher and
the game you would keep it free and I was hanging out of his place and I told
him about it and he immediately decided to install it because why not it's a
free game and then he proceeded to spend the next like four or five hours playing
the game that he didn't pay for but it got him playing
and had that never happened I don't think he would have put in the time
investment to actually play subnautica of course that being said subnautica
doesn't have any micro transactions but I actually think that their goal with
that is to promote this below zero a DLC so there's probably gonna be a lot of
players from the Epic Games launcher that have the game free and they've
played it and they love it and then Sub Zero comes out or below zero comes out
and then a whole bunch of them buy below zero I think that's their plan
personally but I think this is something that high pales shouldn't the high tails
should learn from I think a free game just to get people in the door is a
great idea and there should be this exclusive group that pays money for some
benefits I'm not sure what those benefits are all right so in conclusion
I think the game should be free-to-play because that gets the maximum people in
the door playing the game and then to monetize the game they should have an
exclusive subscription-based club similar to disc or nitro with some very
minutely useful benefits whether it be development tools whether it be having
an animated name or profile picture or maybe extra cosmetics i don't know i
additionally think that they should officially endorse stores on fan-made
servers so that they can market their own stuff and then hightail would get a
percentage off of those purchases on the third-party servers and then finally I
think it'd be a challenge to implement cosmetics considering there will be mods
that pop up very shortly after the game's release that will allow people to
see whatever skin they like through a mod so I mean sure they can do that they
can have a store with cosmetics and it'd probably be pretty successful maybe even
creating key-based maybe it'd be battle pass or Rocket pass style where like as
you progress in level you get more stuff but if you pay money you
even more stuff as you level up it's all great ideas but if there's gonna be a
mod that adds that sort of thing client-side where you can just apply
whatever skin you like right away that might diminish that kind of profit but I
think that would be enough for the developers that they have maybe even
multiple tiers of subscription you know what I mean it could be like a twitch
subscription where for five bucks a month you are a Tier one exclusive
member for ten bucks a month you get extra benefits but that's how I think
the monetization should work I think that would give the developers of the
game the most success but keep it free-to-play because we need as many
players on this game as possible of course there is the cheater problem if
somebody you know somehow manages to cheat and then gets banned they can make
a new account and join again but I think one of the reasons why high tail even
exists is because since they're the ones developing the game they will have full
access to the game's engine they'll have full access to tools that can be used to
prevent hacking or even modding in competitive environments so I think the
cheater problem it would be different but I'm not necessarily saying it will
be worse there will be more accounts being made
in order to hack probably but at the same time it'll be a lot easier to
detect these sort of hacks before they cause any damage to the competitive
communities that will inevitably pop up during this game so yeah those are my
thoughts for hightail I think it could be a really successful game and having
no pay wall to enter will get people like my friend Sebastian playing even
like even if he shows zero interest in the game he will still get it because
it's free at least he would give it a shot he gave fortnight a shot and that's
like not at all the type of game he likes to play so the point I'm trying to
make is that people that maybe even like that kind of game but don't want to
install because they're afraid it's gonna be bad
those type of people will still get the game and play it an increase hype even
if they never end up playing it would still benefit the game and then who
knows maybe they've been playing for three four years and then they finally
drop a rank on some server and you get 30% for example me I never spent any
money on Minecraft after I bought it until about 2016 when I got my alt
account VIP so that I can leave my guild and then make the alt the leader of the
guild so that I my main account 30 virus could be in some other guild in bed
worse like things like that it might take a while but in the long term I
think the game would greatly benefit from computer play I'll leave a like
down below if you guys enjoyed this video I really hope that somebody on the
hypixel dev team sees this because I think this would be the ideal way to go
about doing things there could be more ways to monetize the game I would advise
against doing any pain a win type stuff I would not recommend any sort of you
know clash of clans gems type of deal nothing like that I think it should be
100% equal in not only a competitive environment but even in the
single-player environment I think make game mechanics-wise everything should be
an even playing field because nothing makes me more demotivated as a player to
see somebody drop a hundred bucks on like gems or something and then get
their base to be like at the point where mine would be six months from now
something like that it kind of turns you off from the game I would imagine so
anyway that's it so I hope you guys enjoyed and I'll see you guys later
you
