Future of blockchain gaming

[Rikimaruu]

What do you think about the future of blockchain games? Do you think they will work out? There is difference in playing game for the fun of it and playing games to earn money which is why I think that if Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft don't support blockchain games then it will sucks, consoles have the best games and gamers don't care wasting lots of time on them just for fun.. my point is if these top three gaming companies don't get into blockchain gaming I don't think I will ever be hooked with Play2earn games anyways, what about you?

[Cuda911]

You obviously don't need money it seems, I will choose to make money out of Play2earn games like axie over wasting time playing video games that will give me nonentity in return, do you know how many lives were changed in the Philippines because of axie infinity? Look into illuvuim too the graphic looks exactly like PC games if that's what you need.

Here is my own prediction about play2earn games

1. If big gaming companies sees how serious people are with play2earn games they might join the chorus, don't be surprised when the time comes cos it's definitely coming.

2. Good things takes time, it's not even long that crypto games start receiving interest from the masses thanks for axie infinite, many good games will come and console gamers might divert their attention to play to earn games, just have some patience.

99% of blockchain games suck, and will end up being just an unsustainable temporary way of making money. Pretty much just winning by getting in and out at the right times.

The reason why non-blockchain "play to earn" games have existed throughout the years(RuneScape, World of Warcraft, etc) is because there's a perfect balance between actual players who pay money for their enjoyment and people who only farm items for money. With the current state of blockchain games, like 95% of people pretty much play solely for the money; making the market unsustainable due to the lack of actual demand for the items.

^And probably don't expect AAA game creators to be making blockchain-based games any time soon. They're literally incentivized to make the in-game items untradable, or at least difficult to trade.

What do you think about the future of blockchain games?

Once the money flow ends, death!
There is no other future for games that rely solely on thousands of players trying to cash out.
In the end it's worse that a pyramid scheme.

my point is if these top three gaming companies don't get into blockchain gaming I don't think I will ever be hooked with Play2earn games anyways, what about you?

I would not play a game if I don't like it. I've given a more detailed answer here, no need to quote it again.

You obviously don't need money it seems, I will choose to make money out of Play2earn games like axie over wasting time playing video games that will give me nonentity in return, do you know how many lives were changed in the Philippines because of axie infinity?

That's just sad. You don't realize you're not playing a game, you're simply working.

And axie infinity is just a thing about money redistribution, the game doesn't produce anything, in order to earn from it you need other to put money in, I'm sure you already know that the end is near, everyone is earning money but...from where?
The SLP token has taken a 90% drop from the ATH, it will have the same fate as all the tokens yobit spwans.
Don;t forget when it comes down to come back and here and tell us how many lives it has also ruined.

Agree, we can took the example of ubisoft that intorduce the nft even tho get bunch of dislike, but we already see small of companies like senspark or nomad exiles who already gain from androd player games and bring to play 2 earn

99% of blockchain games suck, and will end up being just an unsustainable temporary way of making money. Pretty much just winning by getting in and out at the right times.

Also agree i join couple of VC and some Launchpad, metaverse and play 2 earn never stop pop up. one of my friend said that play 2 earn games and metaverse right now is far from complete the whitepaper, pithdeck and roadmap is good but the project right know just following the hype to make more money - Easy money grab

so becareful you guys dont invest to much on p2earn unless you totally know with what you're doing


ps. even tho my sig camp right know somewhat p2e too

Blockchain games are good. What do you think those players will be more fond of a game that earning money or purely for fun? I cant say players will leave their natural gaming hub just to jump on games with money but being practical here, you will pick the one that benefits your system for fun and also support your addiction to games.

[Skinny48]

Every games that I'm addicted to are available on console, most Play2earn games on blockchain that I've tried failed to win my heart over, maybe in near future when Ubisoft, konami and others start joining the Play2earn hype then I might develop an interest for crypto gaming but now it's a NO.

They have no future. Play to earn model is unsustainable if everyone is trying to earn and no one is putting real money in, and no one is going to put real money into such low effort products. And the companies that make AAA games are perfectly fine with their profit model, they report record sales almost each year, they would be nuts to implement any of that blockchain crap, considering the overwhelming negative response from gaming community every time someone tries to introduce NFTs.

Play to earn is great. Who don't like to play and earn but the big and very challenging question is

• Where is the money for your earning come from?
• Who do make that money and spend it to you?
• Developers don't make those money (in tokens, coins) with anything backed by real value behind. Gamers don't create those money. So if it is solely based on Play to Earn mode, it should be a Ponzi scheme
• The only way to make it more sustainable is make the role of Play to Earn in GameFi becomes smaller and less important. PvP mode is a good solution as well as others with more use cases for GameFi tokens

[crwth]

I do think that the future of blockchain games is just starting. Many gaming companies probably don't want to share the control over the game itself, but I think it's the fairest thing that developers have done towards games, and in that way, it's going to be shared in some way.

So now, your question is, if the player is playing it for fun or money. That would depend on how much the player needs it, and the part that it could be the next great thing is a bonus.

They might get overrun with the idea that they would stick to how it should be. I think it's an inevitable change.

Sure, it is future and not only the gaming industry but also the whole world will switch to blockchain-based technology for many industries. With on-chain gaming, there will be no way for game providers to cheat gamers. All things are transparent with open source code and on chain data. For server-based gaming, game providers can cheat users if their games are not provably fair.

So now, your question is, if the player is playing it for fun or money. That would depend on how much the player needs it, and the part that it could be the next great thing is a bonus.

Many games are on-chain already but there are something to consider and also are challenges

• It's easily for Click to play games because there are time for on-chain confirmations but gaming experience in such games are not too attractive
• For more complicated, well-designed graphic games, gaming experience will be much better and surely more attractive. However, there are problems with on-chain confirmations. You can not play such games and have to make transaction for each of your click and wait for confirmations. It will wipe out the gaming experience. In the end, there might be a server in between but on this point, there will be more issues with security.

Who don't like to play and earn

People who have jobs, lol

• Where is the money for your earning come from?

They should come from people who buy in-game items. But if everyone wants only to earn, this model is not sustainable.

• The only way to make it more sustainable is make the role of Play to Earn in GameFi becomes smaller and less important. PvP mode is a good solution as well as others with more use cases for GameFi tokens

What does PVP has to do with it? The implementation of a game is irrelevant, it can be anything - an MMO, a puzzle game, a shooter, a card game, whatever - the only thing that needs to happen is people spending enough money on the game. Which they don't want to, because all those play to earn games suck as games. Remove the "earn" part and no one would be playing them.

Yeah, lately, a lot of people are in huge loss. I talked with a guy yesterday since I'm writing a blog post on PlayToEarn games. He said he is in huge loss, around $2k which you know is a big amount who think like life changing chances. In short/hype, a lot of people made some good money. That's true but in long, they suck.

• The money come from players, because the games are actually Pay (Requirement) 2 Play (Work) 2 Earn (Maybe)
• The money of course is made by poeple from their wages or gains in other investments.
• Probably more like MLM scheme.
• The only way to make it sustainable is to actually have a good game, not a cheap card game, and call it the next pokemon...and btw, yesterday poeple exchanged 70 million gifts in Pokemon in 12 hours, and you have to walk for a gift for that to a pokestop and nobody pays you a dime for it.

You've mistaken a decentralized game with a blockchain game.
Even with Axie infinity, nerfing, and chaining of every stat is something ordinary and the developers decide that they could change everything the next day and none of the players have a say in it.

[Peanutswar]

Today one of the trends is the play to earn of course imagine you just playing a game and now you are earning but be careful there are a lot of P2E games showing up and after they created hype for a month they left their game with the money of all investor. Its easy now to create a game and release a coin just make sure you have proper research and invest what you afford to lose. Still, a high risk-reward if you play and earn at the peak well. Invest in the rumour and take profit when it releases.

[riskarcher]

The future of blockchain gaming is disgusting, game publishers from blockchain games are the worst at developing games with tokens in the name of the metaverse maybe publishers can pay players to play their games but not make players happy with the games they provide. Play to earn is sucks

[JeffBrad12]

What do you think about the future of blockchain games?

Ponzi scheme, how profitable this game totally depends on how early to get into the ecosystem. if you're late joiners and say bye with your money. Take a look at bombcrypto if you didn't believe this. This project is play to earn project and it's almost dead.

Do you think they will work out?

I don't.

There is difference in playing game for the fun of it and playing games to earn money which is why I think that if Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft don't support blockchain games then it will sucks, consoles have the best games and gamers don't care wasting lots of time on them just for fun..

Play to earn gaming is only selling its ponzi scheme but it's not with its game. It's 2000's game from its graphic. I rarely seen a project used latest engine.

my point is if these top three gaming companies don't get into blockchain gaming I don't think I will ever be hooked with Play2earn games anyways, what about you?

I do believe those companies will never try to do speculation on this field. this will give a bad impact on their business.

[lousie9]

Blockchain games are now included in MMO games and of course will be very fun to play than monotonous NFT-themed games just to be produced and maybe with some updates in the future there will be many game publishers who include blockchain systems in their games because apart from we have fun playing games but we can also earn so that it becomes an added value in the play2earn game on the blockchain.

[wajik-tempe]

I think it will be a good system when the devs could handle the abuser like doing multiple accounts in case just for farm for real money it will broke the fun of the game itself. Because it's still new less than a year maybe, there will be a lot of new blockchain p2e games in the future, i'm sure it will be better in the matter of time. I heard netmarble said their new games will be 70% on blockchain system and it seems pretty interesting
