Will the Ethereum survive the new influx of games?

Anyway we have a lot of time until housewives will find their interest in the cryptosphere. Too far.

They won't learn that there's something called "ether", or other info. If the mentioned games could attract some crowd to interest them with unusual features and there will be easy entry level, the users won’t be curious about the technical realisation.

What else can offer us the games with the blockchain use?

What else can offer us the games with the blockchain use?

Monetization of the inner purchases , real ownership of the game items instead of the situation when everything "yours" is attached to the publisher or Steam and can be seized back.

What else can offer us the games with the blockchain use?

In game items that will be your asset not only for that game but also in real life through selling it with crypto's.

That's the integration of most of the blockchain games who are developing right now. You've got to play and enjoy while getting reward with the hardwork you've been playing for that game. This is innovation along with the technology, this can even be better, gaming industry is big though.

There is Mobile Go project, for example. They releasing tokens for the cybersport tournaments.

I saw smth is this one you're talking about it - https://www.mobilego.io/?

it looks like and if I think with ethereum as the result of the game's victory, the game enthusiasts and ethereum coins will be lots and lots of people will play the game because they can make money because

Yep, exactly. I liked their approach. In the game they developed, they’ve took simple game mechanics and pixel-based illustrations to do not be distracted by trifles

[LingoMaster]

The transaction time for Eth is too long. And the GAS is too high to transfer Eth. Maybe is time to check out other Coin and platform.

[Guy Montag]

Btw, I think the network was initially projected not for the entertainment like Crypto Cats. Right now the founders got problems and Buterin’s working under the total system improvement.

that’s wrong opinion about the network creation is not for games. It’s pretty big section of entertainment & economics which is pretty innovative. Cryptogames are the future of profitable industry.

[EvilMilk]

I think that crypto games have a big future, those won’t break the Ethereum. Who can say what’s the near future of the market? Remember what happened the year ago. Now? I am talking about you can’t predict anything in crypto world.

[BBjoe]

There are numerous spheres except the gaming, those can be really popular with the influence on the network. For example manufacturing processes with the thousands of participants.

How dangerous are new projects for the real use of blockchain? We have already seen the story of the CryptoKitties, which brought down the Ethereum network. Can this happen again now? What projects can now grow in such a way that will affect the work of the network itself?

I haven't heard anything about good gameplay for such projects. Not so sure about the Ethereum network, but cryptokitties and others (numerous of) are same: buy something that's correlated with the project's token. Technically those are not real games, but another sauce to sell us more dishes called scammy ICO tokens.  

I don't know where you heard about cryptokitties and other ethereum games, but they are not scam. It's a collective game with microtransactions.
It's just a game and they are not stealing people's money. They have done a great job and many other projects just copied them.

Eth network had problems when cryptokitties released, but it was just for a few days/hours and never happened again. It was a good network test and was positive for the network. If ethereum is to grow, many games like this are going to be online

yep, it was like a test for the eth network. but cryptokitties was the only one project, what if there'll be more?

CEO of coinbase has invested in cryptokitties, but a lot of people realized about the fact that it's a child's game and no more. what's the usefulness of collecting the cat? It's a boring game and a lot of people have been staying away from there until there will be a good feature that makes the cat will be useful.

Yeah, large investors can easily to invest in some outrageous and high-profile projects. They don't have to be profitable btw. Others try to imitate them. Unfortunately, it leads to the huge risks because of the lack of assets.

There may always be something that will disturb the work of the entire Network - thats why are hard forks. Anyway, I think, that Ethereum is already so strong that it will be able to handle such "attack" as a few cryptokitties .. If not now, it will be in a few months when delayed hard fork will be made.

I heard that Ethereum is working hard on scaling its own platform because of the CryptoKitties debacle. It really disrupt its network and overwhelm the system specially last year. Or course its going to happen not only in Ethereum but other platforms as well. But just like any other hype, CryptoKitties will just die along the way and new games will pop up that's why devs really need to keep an eye specially on how to scale their projects.

Lol. So true.
It is just another hype which affected the crypto market because of fools trying to make profits as fast as they want.

Somehow they will all go down in a rush just like how they started it.

I know Ethereum will be back even if Vitalik says things in his imaginary world.
The market is being phased by people and not by his mind.
He just have to keep on doing his part on his job.
Let the market be for the people.

yep, it's a bilateral process. developers influence the network, the network influences developers, you know
