Incentivize the Theatre

I dont know about you guys, but my favorite moments of tower unite and old GMT was when tonnes of people join the theatre and queue it up with boatloads of videos to watch together. Now with a bigger lobby with other things to do, lower player counts, and every single person having their own theatre in their condo, the lobby theatre is rarely used. Id like to see the days again where 10+ people will randomly decide to watch stupid stuff in the theatre, but I don’t think that will happen without either planned showings/planned groups going to the theatre, or incentivizing it.

Just as an example, perhaps every 5+ minute video you watch gives you a random item drop as the likes of the wheel in the casino, where you can get nothing, a potato, etc, all the way up to a shrine or something.

Perhaps when the game comes out of early access and the player count is bumped a bit this wont be a problem any more, but as of right now I don’t ever see anyone going into the lobby theatre

Yeah, it is a good idea. but now we have a different problem, you see.
people can just go in there without even listening or seeing the video, and being afk, now, that would need a afk thingy like the one in casino where it tells you to press a button, BUT

That’s basically a ad, and that would be super annoying if you’re watching a video, and suddenly you’re greeted with a popup saying you have to do something

i think it would be cool if the plaza theatre autoplay videos when nothing is being played
maybe like a playlist that videos can be added to, (that the community chooses and is voted on to be added)

also i think having special times for videos to be played like movie nights and stuff would make people go, but i think that would have to be a community organised thing.

I know that we will have the TV addict achievement from GMT but seriously, milestones?

I think maybe an incentive of the way of some units or something for chilling and watching would be neat. Not super big but a little extra.

Ooh this reminds me that we still don’t have those splash screens from GMT, I’d love to see those return as well.
