"I listened to the audiobook and as memory serves, it was as competitive back then as it is now, although the battle now is over exclusives rather than any hardware/software wow factor. TL;DR they are competing harder than ever but the game has changed." - Jake

We will always have a free version of our API, we want to be super clear about that. What we plan to do is to improve our API so you can do more with less requests (eg batch requests/specify fields), this will give more power to the developer and be perfect for mobile applications where minimal requests are important. Right now we have 619 projects using our API and it's starting to take a toll on our server due to it's current state.

When we do improve our API, and the new features are implemented on dedicated hardware, we will most likely introduce premium tiers with higher limits. Should any of our projects need more requests today, we would find a solution, most likely involving dedicated hosting.

I have a hard time seeing that we would ever ask our partner projects to give back their data. We just don't roll like that. We are looking into safe licensing models that will protect projects in cases like this.

Thanks for your kind words!

Hey there! The longest video game session a user added in our database was 4296 days which is strange considering that counter strike global offensive hasn't been out that long. "The longest video game session I have played is 48 hours in final fantasy 7" - Christian
