As good as Blue Prince seemed to me (and at least 4-5 friends I talked to after they finished it, too), I couldn't recommend it to anyone without a list of caveats. Imo it has VERY high highs and quite low lows, especially for non-native speakers - but also bc. of general game design.

My point was that from what I've read - it's both. In most cases it's what you mentioned, but some additional people might be swayed towards a pixelart game with a non-PA capsule, while you won't usually lose anyone for NOT using PA in a capsule if it's a PA game. Difficult with max post length...

Tbh I might be biased (halo effect) because the first thing I've seen from this analysis were their personal takeaways, not the "raw" data that is indeed just purely helpful and good. ^^

I definitely agree that this is an incredible free ressource. I just fear people might take the wrong conclusions from it. Not only because some numbers seem to be related but are just correlation, but also bc. current trends might change quickly.

I agree in general, but non-pixelart capsules have one advantage. Many people don't like pixelart because it's pixelart and are more willing to give it a chance once lured onto the store page by a non-pixelart capsule.

Still, there is some mixup with correlation and causality, as is apparent from their Reddit post.

Additionally (taken from different sources): If you've a pixelart game, marketing it on Steam with e.g. DRAWN capsule images makes games perform much better than having actual pixelart in the promotional material.

Larian Studios is indie and Dave the Diver isn't. :^)
(Yeah, this discussion more often leads to nothing than actually helping anyone, but it's still clear to me "indie games" are saving the industry currently, however you define them.)

Yeah, it's quite a catch-all. And it's even neutral in meaning by itself.

The first thing that comes to mind is "Erwartungsspannung". But there's like a hundred different ways to say something like that in one word. ^^'
No actual commonly used word comes to mind right now.

The music accompanying his Haiku videos STUCK with me. Every Haiku I read or write has to be done with that music in mind.
