So, hypothetically, let's say you could sell 100 widgets for $2.00 each and make $200, or you could sell 50 at $5.00 each and make $250, or you could sell 10 at $10.00 each and make $100. However, there's a 'sweet spot' of balancing them that will maximize your profit. The more you push the price up, the less you'll sell. Likewise, if you price too high, you'll only sell a couple, but you'll make a lot off each individual one. If you go too low on the price, you'll sell a ton of them and will certainly make a profit, though somewhat depreciated by the lower price. These widgets cost you $0.00 each to build*. You have an unlimited supply of something, let's call them widgets. Since you're having trouble connecting the idea of cars to the event, think of it this way. While it's true that restricting supply drives up demand, if you restrict it too far you end up losing business. Supply and demand are twisted here since supply is unlimited due to your manufacturing cost being zero.

In the above-cited quote, you seem to grasp the idea that the manufacturing cost is zero, but you're not applying it. Obviously, no is going to intentionally pay to build a 20k car/lower-level Colossus because you get it for free anyway.Ģ. There is no 20k/50k deal here since there's only one product we're talking about buying (Level 10 Colossus/Colossus Upgrades). And if they're real good, get us to buy more than one 50k. We're getting the 20K car for free, Inno has to convince us to buy the 50k. buy the 50k car) then Inno loses their profit, which is exactly my point.

And if players are satisfied with the lower-level Colossus and don't spend to upgrade it (i.e. If we're talking about a fully-leveled one, it fails because the Level-10 Colossus (which is what we're talking about) isthe '50k car'. If you're making a claim from a player perspective to be satisfied with a lower-level Colossus as opposed to a fully-leveled one, your analogy holds. You keep talking about the difference between different cars (costs, maintenance, etc.) This doesn't hold here because there are not different cars, unless you're talking about a difference between different levels of the Colossus. It's completely misplaced for a couple reasons:ġ. You keep using this car analogy, in great detail about manufacturing cost, maintenance schedules, accessories, etc. I frankly don't understand how you can get this right and get everything else so wrong.
