Good day guys,

Not trying to break any rules so I will not give self promotion details. Serious question - We are developing a Fitness based VR game. A proper one with real goal setting mechanics, huge gamification, the whole 9 yards. I would like to know whether you prefer to buy a game outright or rather have a F2P with in-game purchase and/or monthly subscription.

Side note: I see most games in this genre go for about $25-$30, so we would be the same it we go that route, otherwise I was thinking F2P with a $10/month sub for additional content.

If I am breaking any rules here, I apologize, I am trying to stay within the rules by purely asking the question. For me to ensure I build something the community really wants, I need to first know what they want.

Thank you all in advance for any feedback.

Doepie308: Yes, we looked at this. So any payment into the app will have to go through the Quest payment platform. They will remove the VAT of the appropriate country and then take 30% and 6 weeks later you can withdraw the amount inclusive of the VAT which you then declare in financial year end. So there is no real way to skip this 30%. Even if you use tokens of some sort, it still needs to be purchased initially and that purchase, regardless of what it is for, will be eligible for a 30% commission.
