Probably Runescape, but it didn't make much of an impression on me.
Anyone else kinda like the Assassin's Creed movie? I didn't think it was complete shit.
For a video game movie, it was pretty decent. Good action and slick visuals, no oscars coming but I enjoyed it. What's been your greatest achievement and how has it shaped your life? |

We use a content calendar that you can plan a week ahead and it could look like this http://imgur.com/6YtBw73. In addition I suggest using a tool like Buffer (free to a certain degree) to schedule posts ahead. That way you only have to interact with fans since the posting is automated. As main social platforms we concentrate on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook and Tumblr. Reddit is another good but tougher to reach. Another thing I suggest is creating lists on Twitter to keep track and stay in touch with certain people & fans, we for example have: 1. Most Active Followers 2. Top Gamedev News 3. List of Top Influencers 4. Industry Leaders 5. Competitor List Nurture them over time (the most important ones are Top Influencers and Most Active Followers to us) I suggest making most of them private. Your overall goal should be to drive people to a certain action (Call to Action). This could be a link for a newsletter sign up or a new blog post you created. Track every tweet and post and test what worked and what didn't - adapt if need be. Hope that helped a little  Wow, this is awesome. Thank you so much for taking the time to add such value to this post, not only for me but to anyone else looking for information on social media promotion. |

Generally speaking, it's hard to find out what site converts the most players, but Twitter, Facebook, and reddit are the highest in terms for acquisition/bringing people to our steam page.
Thank you for replying and passing on the information. Much appreciated. |

 So I start by asking a question, the next person who replies answers the question, and then asks a question of their own. The next poster replies to that question, and then posts a question of their own. And so on. Here Goes: You can have one superpower – and only one. What is it, and why did you pick it?

Name: Virtual Earth Online The game play for VEO is based on the “sandbox” concept coupled with stunning Google Earth technology to produce what is not just the worlds largest online video game but what could be considered the future of the internet. The entire Earth is in the game, every river, every road and yes, your house is in the game. Players have tools and building materials available to them and the players are able to build anything they like in the game. Players can purchase a block of land anywhere on Earth, finally you can own your dream home with an ocean view.   |
