A 'whale' is a player who spends a vast amount of money in an online game.

whales make up roughly 0.2% of the player base, and yet they spend almost 51% of the money.

Game Devs WANT whales, but they don't want to harm the rest of the community, so how do they balance this?

Thanks to my supporters on Patreon and Twitch for keeping the channel going!
