A 2,000-Member Community Gets a Clear Answer
Background: DAG’s first meme video has just gone live, and the community is expanding from longtime members to newcomers. Today: On Saturday, the group passed 2,000 members. Impact and next: Once the group crossed 2,000, the expectations facing the project became more varied, and one slogan may not be enough to keep every newcomer.

Background: DAG’s first meme video has just gone live, and the community is expanding from longtime members to newcomers. The practical question in the group today is direct: have these people come to play a game, see the characters, or wait for a token?
Today: On Saturday, the group passed 2,000 members. New arrivals kept asking one question most of all: “Will there be a token?” The official reply was standardized as “We make games.” The brief answer made no token promise to ride the market mood and brought the conversation back to what the studio is building.
Impact and next: Once the group crossed 2,000, the expectations facing the project became more varied, and one slogan may not be enough to keep every newcomer. The team chose to state its game-making direction plainly; it still has to answer, with playable content, why people should stay.
