The game itself is worth it imo. There's a reason that we still have a dedicated playerbase of nearly 100 people daily on a game that's nearing 20 years old. New content is being made on the game all the time, so why wouldn't this passionate group of people want to show it off? Hell, a lot of people playing are REPLAYMAKERS. I think spending hours on a replay is reason enough to want to get people to watch it.

Anyways, I see that you want this thread to be a pivotal moment in Toribash history where we come up with a brand new detailed plan to save this game. I'll entertain this a little bit.


I think one big hurdle here is the size of the playerbase and the size of staff. Even though it would be normal for other fighting games, it's laughable to suggest that we'd see Toribash meetups where people meet up in person to play Toribash together. We also won't see Nabi Studios hosting a booth at a game convention due to their lack of pretty much any physical presence. This is sad because I think Toribash could get more recognition in the fighting games community. If anyone wants to contact key members of other fighting games and get them into Toribash then I'd be truly happy to work with them and try to brainstorm specific plans that way.


Unlike meetups, I think getting a booth at a fighting game convention is actually a really good goal for Toribash. We'd be able to show people firsthand what the game is like, talking directly to the kinds of people who would be interested in such a game. I think many people would even recognize Toribash and be shocked to see that it's still around and the kinds of new stuff we've been doing. The catch is that this booth likely has to be owned by an org rather than Nabi itself. The main hurdle there is finding people with the money, resources, and dedication to set up such a thing. This would not be efficient marketing, but I think it's just a really fun idea tbh and it's maybeee achievable. I'm not sure how the logistics work though.


Also, can you elaborate on how TC would be used as an incentive for advertising? Are you suggesting Nabi pay people with ingame currency to make videos on Toribash?
