Enjin is going to launch a platform where devs can use their api to create tokens representing the game items. But, firstly comparing OREN with Enjin is not valid because OREN is a totally decentralized platform and anyone can use it as no central authority controls any part of the OREN Platform. But, we can't say the same for Enjin.
Secondly, Enjin is depending on Ethereum's "future" offered update knows as Casper. If these third party "future" updates don't come through, or something changes on the way, then this project will face a massive challenge.
As for the path Enjin have to take if Casper don't come through is full of obstacles which have been described on page 33-35 of our whitepaper.
Ejin just solved the problem of creating in-game items and giving it a market value. But, OREN goes much further than that.
Core differences between Ejin and OREN Platform other than the blockchain limitations:
1. No revenue sharing model is provided in Enjin. OREN Platform's revenue sharing model between game developers and publishers is totally open market auction based where this is handled by smart contracts and the revenue distribution takes place automatically without any middle man or in fact any man at all.
2. The game itself is not protected by the blockchain on Enjin, only the game items are. On OREN Platform the game key itself is a blockchain asset which helps to takes down piracy of games.
3. Enjin don't connect all the required parties needed for the online game industry to work. It only connects the game developers and the gamers. We took it a step further by bringing in the game publishers and ad sponsors along with decentralized streaming services for gamers to earn a decent income.
4. OREN Offers built in decentralized exchange for game and game item trading. We are working on a way to integrate trade against other crypto currencies too. This also helps developers and host nodes/ game publishers to liquidate oren coins to something like bitcoin which can be cashed out to fiat easily. And also provides an easy medium for players to get oren coins.
5. OREN provides a means of competitive gaming which Ejin again don't. Players can arrange competition without any third-party requirements. Let's say, there is a racing game. 10 players agreed to play in a competition where they have to pay 10 OREN coins each. The winning prize will be 50 OREN coins, first runner up will get 30 and second runner up will get 20. This can be managed through the OREN platform easily. A user-friendly GUI smart contract system is going to be built to solve just that. The smart contract will ask for a deposit from all the participants and once it's done the competition can be started on any host node of the participants’ choice. After the competition is over, the smart contract will distribute the prizes automatically and instantly. All of these without a single drop of technical knowledge required by the gamers to use them and neither any third party required to judge or distribute the prizes.
6. OREN is a complete solution which not only solves the problem of gaming but also have means of protecting its coin value, which is similar to protecting its whole system. It comes with a safety mechanism for massive price drops from market manipulation (price dumps). There will be a coin lock up system where users lock up their coins for a specific time. During this time their coins will be inaccessible. After the time period is over they will get their coins back with an additional interest automatically through the Blockchain. Our unique algorithm will provide interest rates based on market analysis. Therefore, huge coin holders will find it more profitable to lock up coins instead of dumping them on the market. Moreover, as more gamers engage on the platform, the usage of the coins will rise creating more demand. This system will auto try to reduces the active supply of ORENs if a mega dump takes place by offering maximum possible interest rates on lock-up for early birds. Which will then in return nullify the negative effect on the price due to the dump in a couple of hours.
7. OREN also looks after its game developers. There is a built in crowdfunding platform for funding game projects on oren platform. It also protects the investor's fund by distributing the investments into milestones. Only if the milestones have been reached by the game developer, then that specific fund is released to the developer.
8. We are leaving off some other features so that this reading doesn't become too much exaggerating or boring. If you are interested in knowing more, then please read our whitepaper.
As you can see, Enjin only solves a single part of the problem which we are trying so solve. OREN is a much large scale operation which is moving towards a much bigger picture. But lets see what the future holds. Maybe we could learn a thing or two from Enjin's framework/sdk as well, we never know.
