Spells of Genesis Game Resets for Further Development

[Ezekial2517]

The popular blockchain-based trading card game Spells of Genesis (SoG) has just announced a game reset. After last week’s soft-launch, the game started over on Thursday and all game players began a fresh new experience.

EverdreamSoft explained the purpose of the reset was to prepare for a new solo rewards experience. All players must now compete again for positions on the solo leaderboards, and obtain new in-game items.

Wasn't that game that had cards ? If I remember well, a card of Satoshi worth a good little fortune was for sale here. Will those cards get deleted ? If so, that's pretty unfair for people :/...

They will exist until BTC and counterparty exist. Even if SoG game dies. Cards will stay. No one can delete your card so as no one can delete your bitcoins.


PS: OK there are some silly blockchains that do rollbacks or whatever they call to hide their mistakes. With those you can lose your asset. With BTC and Counterparty i doubt that will ever happen.

Satoshi card is an counterparty asset: https://blockscan.com/assetInfo/SATOSHICARD  here are all owners of Satoshi cards. Was 1000 issued but 801 burned. So only 199 on different wallets.
Reset that will happen when game start will not influence blockchain cards. Ingame cards and ingame asset will be reseted.

Blockchain cards are yours forever and soem like Satoshi card are used in other games. I am sure in future wil be in quite many with new gaming platform EDS is developing.

What is so bad about this reset news? The coin crashed badly after the release of this news.

This is not uncommon for games that are still in a beta. Newbies are just dumping which is good for whales to accumulate more of this coin cheaply. In the long run, this game still has good prospects.

First of all when you launch the game the first screen says that all gains will be reset until the full game launch, so everyone who plays the game is aware.

Second, the reset is only for in-game items like gold, crystals (different than BitCystals BCY) and in-game (free) cards which are not blockchain cards and whatever upgrades were done to all cards. Whoever owns blockchain cards will still own them as they are Counterparty assets.

Third the recent rise of BCY price was due to the news of 2 soft launches: spells of genesis (the web soft launch) and Book of Orbs (Android and iOS app built in collaboration with IndieSquare). Both soft launches happened the same week and that's when BCY went up in price.

As with all altcoins there are speculators who buy and sell to make a profit. Nothing different than any other coin. However the difference with Spells of Genesis and most other alts is that the team actually has a working product in its final revisions before full launch on the Apple and Google appstores.

The reset was a known thing to all SoG fans and players so it didn't cause any crash. What caused it is very short-term speculators cashing out their profits.

I don't mind at all when the price goes down because all it means is moar cheap coins for me! Keep dumping!
