Best Way to Manage Customer Support for a Gaming Website?

I’m working on a PC gaming website where visitors often have questions about games, installation, system requirements, and troubleshooting.

For those using Intercom, what’s the best way to organize these types of questions? Would you recommend using a Help Center with separate categories for game information, technical issues, and general FAQs, combined with automated replies for common questions?

I’d also be interested in hearing how other websites use Intercom to reduce repetitive support requests while still providing a good experience for users.

Build out your knowledge base (Help Center) with what’s important and expose it to Fin so that it can be used as a part of chat/email/voice support. Label your sections so that they make sense. And if specific articles answer specific questions, use the content guidance section to callout those specifics.  

For troubleshooting customer issues, that’s where I think Procedures will come in handy. From there you can get super prescriptive with what steps to take, and as part of the flow once the customer has reached a stopping point where they can no longer continue to troubleshoot, you send them to a team member for assistance. 

That being said, I don’t recommend trying to trap the customer in an AI loop. If they want to talk to a person, let them talk to a person ASAP. 

Hope this helps!
