I guess the point is that they got this level of success (which GOG didn't reach) because they're based in US.
And I tend to agree with that, there are some reason, including the fact that it's a huge country with a wealthy population that use loans and credit cards to buy even more that they can afford. That creates a strong domestic market that you can leverage before having to look at international sales.
Nothing to do with the US government policies of course...
- yetihehe 9mo agoEpic was founded in US and didn't reach such success too. I think this is not because of US based, more like because of Gabe Newell.
- jackvalentine 9mo agoGood example. I’d want to look at the first-mover(ish) advantage Valve had and other differences in product timing/delivery before I concluded it was impossible to found a company like Valve in the EU.
- yetihehe 9mo agoI am interested in knowing why it's impossible. Only because of first mover advantage?
- jackvalentine 9mo agoI think you’re reading my post wrong. I’m not stating it’s impossible.
