Well im glad it already got mentioned, cause I was gonna make a joke about all those poor cg employees that would have had to be stuck at the digital star wars toy factory over the holiday to meet the supply demand if theyd have had a sale.
So heres the funny thing, selling a stun gun or some salvage doesnt cost anything for them (or shouldnt? Like maybe these examples cost in art assets but youd need to make signs and flyers for a sale anyway and you gotta pay the guy who codes it but youd need to pay the stock guys, sales people, and cashiers in a brick and morter) so wether we pay 1$ or 30$ for a stun gun it should all be profit. I dont believe theres any material cost per clone wars chewbacca shard either. So uh like id feel comfortable saying theyd have had net gains or at least an average days revenue if theyd have had some sales, and im not evening talking juicey sales. Just some sort of offering.
Personally I think black friday is the temporal personification of fat selfish American greed, and im American. I think its wrong to seperate families on a day we are supposed to show our gratitude to one another so that other people can buy tvs and carts full of things they dont need. But thats America baby! But .... CG is in America, they know what the day is about. They choose not to compete with litterally everyone else nationwide. They let so many dollars go to other mobile games and especially Amazon (go ahead rest of the world tell me you don't like Amazon on Black Firday)
Tl:Dr
Its dumb as an American company to loose sales on Black Friday. You can use whatever arguement you want, its still dumb to loose sales on Black Friday. Add it to the pile of "lul dumb move cg".
