So I hope I’m not being mean or anything, but like, this game doesn’t make me want to spend a single penny. There’s nothing that makes me go “wow! I can’t believe I don’t have this, I will throw my wallet at the creator right. Now.”.
And while I love the game to bits because of the aesthetics and the community, something is lacking, something that doesn’t make me want to spend my real human dollars on this game.
I seriously think that the issue, as the person who would like to get money from this game, is that the game doesn’t pressure anyone into spending money. And while I’m glad of that, because finding a balance between making a player spend money and letting a player enjoy the game is difficult. It really doesn’t seem to be bringing any money to the table.
Like, cool, you get to have all of the outfit slots unlocked, the extra time for grinding money, the reduced prices… But you can just be patient and not spend a single penny, you can grind comfortably with no pressure and that’s honestly amazing to me, a free player, but not worth the money to me, as a customer.
If you could have limited time items, I’m sure that it would make some people want to spend some money on the game, or maybe some premium items that are only available to those who spend their money on a subscription.
Also, becoming the prime bimbo and the whole political aspect sounds… kind of tiresome, I’m playing a cute bimbo game, not trying to become the president of the world, dealing with politics that seem to be serious sounds tiresome, I don’t want to work in a game when I already have a job in real life, and I don’t want to pay to have a job.

'something is lacking' - that's the key phrase, but what is lacking in your opinion?

That's true, you can get or achieve almost anything if having enough patience, like saving diamonds to buy slots for instance, or b$ for clothes. Now with artifacts it's much easier than before we got artifacts. Senatorship gives only 10% discount on shop items, it doesn't make a big difference in reality. When you manage to collect a decent amount of b$ it's almost the same if you pay a dress 2000b$ or 1800b$.

What’s lacking is pressure to make the free players want to switch to paying for a senator subscription, if there was a right amount of pressure that would make a competitive gamer spend money, but that wouldn’t turn off the game the casual gamers, so they could keep on playing the game, it would make some players want to spend some money.

How do you put some pressure on the players? Give limited time items, special -luxury- items, not just game currency or perks that can be obtained by grinding.

Exactly, Laynee!! I find myself spending money on gacha games because they have limited items or special benefits that appeal to me-
Take Cookie Run: Ovenbreak for example! I pay for the monthly royal club membership (3.50 a month) I get special rewards for how long I’ve been subscribed and extra rewards for watching ads and completing daily missions. I also get the ability to spin the Rainbow Cube wheel extra times (Rainbow Cube jellies are what you get to purchase costumes with) and to me collecting all the costumes is a lot of fun and worth paying for.
Also I’d like to mention another thing, in Bimboland the achievements are Extremely difficult and time consuming to get, for someone like me who LOVES completing things, the achievements seem super out of reach, especially since the majority are things I don’t like doing much (Debates, Duels, and Fights)

So it is about having something special that is not available to all players.

Achievements were even more difficult. Today they seem pretty realistic if compared to just 1,5 - 2 years ago. In order to get diva badge for example you had to have huge amount of make up (can't remember the exact number) but shop didn't have even near that number of make up (including all recolors and categories). These numbers are corrected and ofc a lot of make up and recolors got added meanwhile. Overall, getting pink badge for most of achievements isn't a big deal, but then things start getting harder. After 3 years of playing I still have only pink shaker badge and silver horny (the later one is getting closer to the gold). But getting Fashionista badge is def hard, only 1st place counts for it.

In MissBimbo premiumship was called VIB (very important bimbo), it had a lot of interesting options, no idea how much it costed tho. Anyway, VIB players had access to VIB clothes, now you can find in shop one dress and sandals that have VIB in title, they are from that period. Also VIB players had an opportunity to have their own shops, like they could make some clothes and put it in their shop. The sign 'visit my shop' is about that actually.

I just started and thought to try the subscription for one month. If I don't like it I'm going to cancel. So far it's ok but assumed there would be a bit more perks included.

It will certainly help you to level up faster. There is a senator artifact that gives senator perks for 1, 2 or 3 days, except when using that artifacts you don't get these 500 diamonds bonus as you do when subscribe for a month. That artifact is very handy for new players to try it out.

Personally I think the price is a little steep.. its about 9$ a month (7 pounds).. That's the same as most basic streaming sites subscriptions.. I feel like this sort of subscription should be maybe.. 75% of what it is now? like 6$ or maybe even 5$.. I know this website makes most its money from that and diamond purchases but I feel like more people would get the subscription if it were a wee bit cheaper :/

Laynee has really hit the nail on the head there. I'm new and immediately saw there was no real reason to get a subscription. Then I realised I couldn't enter the fashion contest without being level 16. That pressure is what made me buy the subscription, that being said, I will not be renewing it. Another reason I wanted to buy it was for the amount of time and effort I've seen put into building this community. However, I do not want that kind of responsibility, so being an SM doesn't appeal to me...like AT ALL. Some things that would make me consider keeping my subscription would be; Exclusive Items, Exclusive Events, More Duelling, Level locked areas/games. As a customer, I want to feel special, different, to all of the other players who don't pay, without making the none paying players feel like they HAVE to pay to enjoy the game

Well put together, thanks for your insight. Have to add it is bit different when you hear opinions from newer players and some of us who are here longer, were senators for months or even years and we got just used to the perks we get.
