Will Zynga Leave Facebook?
- Thread starter Andy Chalk
- Start date
That explains a lot from March, and why we keep getting reports and updates on the game when most of us don't seem to give a crap. Now what we need is more Robot Unicorn Attack updates. Granted there are none to be had, but I still feel like 99% of our content here should be that game.Marmooset said:
Zynga wants to leave Facebook and make games independent of a social network?
Who do they think they are!? Game developers!?
EDIT: Facebook should be getting like a 90% cut, they're the ones doing all the work

Zynga would stay on Facebook if they are smart.
Equally, Facebook is doing what is smart on their part by eliminating the annoying nuances of friend whoring. It's not supposed to be a slap in Zynga's face, rather it's something Facebook is doing to make their site easier and more convenient for their users old and new. If Zynga feels threatened by that, then they are too selfish and greedy for their own good. Facebook shouldn't be accommodating an entity like Zynga, they should be accommodating what brings them revenue, which is repeat and new users. Zynga can choose to embrace that and continue to thrive on the biggest, most popular website on the internet, or they can take a chance and leave, and probably fail.
It's true that browser games are integral to Facebook and one of the driving factors of repeat visits, but 90% of those people playing the games don't care if it's Zynga providing it to them or if it's another company. All they care about is that it takes a couple mouse clicks to get to, and if Zynga decides to leave, I think they'll be screwed. So /end rant. That's just my 2 cents.

Yeah, I don't think Zynga players play it because they're good games... they're easy games to play on an all ready popular website. If they go it alone, it might not end well as casual players may lose interest...
I say they should go for it and leave Facebook.
[sub]Then maybe I can go on there without hearing a thing about those 'games'.[/sub]

Yay! No more will the FaceBook pages be flooded with some bastard asking us to take their Super Stove piece or that they a sheep!
I don't use FaceBook and that was one the reasons I was avoiding it.

I tried, but apparently I didn't click enough options, or they reset, or whatever. In all honesty, I didn't feel like digging through all the options and ferreting out the culprits, I didn't visit FB enough to care. I was still annoyed by it, though, so that sentence caught my eye, that's all.sylphmortem said:

The problem is, most people only play farmville because its something to do one facebook. I'm sure as hell not going to a totally different site just to play farmville, etc. Screw that, if i have to go to a gaming site for games a'll stick with Armor Games.
