Baratorch - how much total funding is needed to make it free?
1. I already wrote that 3.5 million rubles are needed for the online lobby. With the stated price for a monthly subscription, I would need to collect this amount for 20+ years (based on assumptions about current demand). Moreover, in 10-20 years, the demand for Heroes will likely not remain at the current level. 2. The lobby requires server rental and administration. These are not things that can be done once and then the result can be used for a lifetime. It requires money, attention, and work. It is possible to collect the amount and then ignore the server (stop paying for the rental, stop administering, and the lobby will naturally stop working).

1. I did write that it's 3.5 million rubles for the OH.
Apologies, I couldn't find that post. I'm just curious about what makes up such a huge sum, considering the product is already working.

I don't understand why $5 a month is a problem for people who play Heroes regularly. Anyone can afford that amount for their hobby, which takes up a significant part of their life. Why keep bringing up the topic of a one-time payment when it has already been repeatedly stated that this option is not very suitable? You don't ask your internet provider how much you need to pay to use it for 20 years; you wouldn't even think of trying to do that, I'm sure.

First of all, the amount isn't huge.
Secondly, if you were buying a house, you wouldn't say, "Why so much money, the house is already built?"

Specifically, the Overworld Heroes (OH) and the lobby are being developed together for 3 years. But in general, this is the culmination of my 9 years of work on the Heroes series. NINE! And I've already written about the development process of OH, for example, that it involves periods of up to 16 hours of work per day. The same goes for the lobby. Moreover, with the arrival of a family, this work undoubtedly comes at the expense of the family. At the expense of sleep and my own health. Once again: all this time, I could have spent on a lot of things that would be much more beneficial for me.

Sometimes I watch Heroes streams. Top Heroes streamers collect much more in donations than I do, and yet I definitely spend no less time, possibly even more, but this time spent is not visible to anyone. And I have a considerable audience - tens of thousands of regular users. I feel a little offended by this situation.

Specifically, in the last six months, my family income and well-being have decreased significantly. And the prospects are not rosy. I need money. That's basically why the topic of paid Lobbies and OH came up.

either I didn't read it carefully enough, or I couldn't find it) here are some questions: from what point will the payment start? will it be a subscription? what is the difference between a paid and a free lobby? what will happen to those who don't want to pay? and most importantly, what monthly amount is needed so that Baratorch doesn't shut down the project? because we could start pre-paying for it)

When will the payment start?
I will be ready to launch the paid mode on April 23, but I will most likely wait until the end of the CIS region's participation.
Will it be a subscription?
Almost. Technically, you will be buying N days of access to use the lobby with the Overlord Hero. At the start, it will be a purchase of 30 days. If I decide not to close the project, then there will be a purchase of 365 days at a reduced price.
What is the difference between the paid and free lobby?
There is no difference between today's free lobby and the future paid one.
What will happen to those who don't want to pay?
They will not be able to play through the lobby and, accordingly, with the Overlord Hero.
Most likely, those who don't pay will have access to the General chat in the lobby, a list of games and players, but will not have access to private chat and will not be able to create a game or join a created one.

Depending on the amount of money collected in the first couple of months, I will either close the lobby completely, or I will continue to operate it as is, or I will develop it further.
And most importantly, what amount is needed per month so that Baratorch doesn't close the project?
I don't know for sure yet, I haven't decided. But probably it's at least 15,000 rubles per month. I am even more concerned about the number of players who are willing to pay. Because if there are few of them, they themselves will have no one to play with, and accordingly, there will not be much point in this lobby.

Am I correct in understanding that if everything goes well, the project will continue to develop? Does this mean we can expect improvements to the generator (better roads, better layouts), the ability to choose skills in the hut and from the scholar, etc., or is this something completely different?

You don't force your internet provider to tell you how much you need to pay to use it for 20 years; you wouldn't even think of trying to do that, I'm sure.
Rostelecom pushed a lifetime internet plan onto my friend for around 20,000 rubles, about 4-5 years ago. It's still working.

Sometimes I watch Heroes of Might and Magic streams. Top streamers in the Heroes community collect much more in donations than I do, and yet I definitely spend no less time, possibly even more, on it – it's just that this time isn't visible. And I have a sizable audience – tens of thousands of regular users. I feel a bit resentful about this situation.

You have to admit, that's really the case. Twitch's professional businessmen are making a profit from someone's work practically for free:smile29:

Maybe it makes sense to create a poll?

Here, there is definitely no point in creating a poll (finally).
Because everyone will vote in the only possible way with the maximum possible accuracy immediately after the CIS tournament ends.
