The first ever Gambling Metaverse

[makishart]

I don't want to call something like that as a metaverse anymore. I meant you must also aware with the fact that if these days so many developers were only using the word of metaverse to create the hype while the reality the game itself didn't even represent what we called that as metaverse.
I know that game but i don't wanna to play that caused by it looks like 20's game rather than a metaverse. Metaverse itself was not oriented to be play to earn or free to earn. It's about creating the world that you will be connecting with others through this world.
that game didn't even represent some things that must be owned by the metaverse. I meant you must see how so many game was declaring themselves as metaverse while they didn't represent it. It's an old game.

I do not know if any of you guys remember, but the whole idea of metaverse is not new. Long before the metaverse hype, Second life had already introduced the concept and kept its leadership in the industry until very recently. Anyways, the concept was adopted by Dragon's tale, which was the first-ever Gambling metaverse Casino in the cryptocurrency space and where many players could get a lot of bitcoins simply by completing missions and treasure hunts.

Is anyone still playing Dragon's Tale today?

Metaverse is a very popular niche in the cryptocurrency market no doubt, and some months back, I think I read a thread on this board that discussed about the possibilities of gambling or building casinos in the metaverse, I will try to search for that thread and if I find it, I will post here for reference...

The above being said, I am just reading/getting to know about dragon's tale for the first time here, It is another win for the gambling community if indeed, it is now possible to gamble in the metaverse - (I honestly don't like mentioning this word "metaverse" though, it always seems so unreal in my imagination 😊.)

I will definitely check it out and see what they offer, and how I could earn those valuable bitcoins.

The Dragon's Tale game traces its history back to 2010, but the main launch of the game was in 2013. I don't know how it is now, but before it used bitcoin for internal payments and transfers between players, it also had mini-games like online casinos where bitcoin was also used, but I wouldn't say that it is a metaverse, but some of its elements are present.

I've heard this game was played by a lot of people at that time to get free bitcoins and although I haven't tried it I consider this the first game that supports bitcoin payments, it's cool but unfortunately I can't play this game because I don't have a laptop and computer at the time. it's forgotten, you remind me again with this thread and I see the game is still active until now and the website is still accessible, I also think Dragon's tale is not like the metaverse games, maybe I'll give it a try

I just found out about this now dude, but it looks like these games have been around for a long time, if I'm not mistaken it was 2010 or 1999?

And I think it seems that other communities will not pay much attention to it in these times because our technology is more upgraded nowadays than when the dragon tales game was established. Then it seems boring to play because the graphics are not that good.

Uhh isn't it more like a Play-to-earn gambling kind of thing? Now Idk if those are considered metaverse but what I do know about metaverse is a kind of central hub kind of sort where multiple worlds (3d or 2d) are connected and can interact with each other. A vast internet world so to speak (Basically Minecraft tbh, but that's a different discussion). It's rather different from what OP posted about since it's more of a game where mining is integrated into the system of the game plus a variety of gambling-related games. It's an MMO, but the currency, in this case, Bitcoin, is earned via mining through the game.

It's a rather interesting idea though. But then again if it does pop off, bots would simply fill it up and ruin the ecosystem just like any other play-to-earn games out there.

Metaverse has a very wide variation. Metaverse is already invented even blockchain doesn't exist and many people mistaken Metaverse as solely what metaverse right now in crypto but the original concept of Metaverse are an open world environment like VR that will makes user feel like he enters the world of the game.

MMORPG game is one example of the early Metaverse concept same with the OP sample game. They are just different on current standard of Metaverse but still they are categorized as metaverse since they are pioneer idea.

The Dragon's Tale gaming environment was unprecedented. What the world of online gambling needs most is more innovation. Online casinos have grown stale, with little incentive for players to return. What's most intriguing about Dragon's Tale isn't the gambling aspect, it's the world that lies behind it. It's a persistent world filled with different characters and Dragon's Tale has a completely different focus and approach than other online games. As other developers expand on this concept they may create new templates for gambling in the metaverse, but no one will ever build quite so strange an environment as Dragon's Tale.

Yeah, I have to agree with that. Nevertheless, this was a great project that should have followed the course of time and should have been developed accordingly. It seems to me now that the Devs abandoned the project but they could have gone for a Remastered version and this would most probably go BIG.

There are two types of casinos. 1-Real life physical casinos, 2-Online casinos. There is no such thing as metaverse casino, it is just another online casino. Whether it is encapsulated by metaverse or operating on a domain it doesn't make a difference. It is a virtual casino. Hyping these casinos is meaningless imo. There are already very good online casinos like stake.com, freebitco.in, primedice etc. Why would anybody make things more difficult? Metaverse is only adding another barrier between you and the casino.

I think it's not wrong if people can create their own terms and if you think about it, they also termed the casinos which use cryptos a "crypto casino" and the casino that uses a fiat are "fiat casinos". It's just casinos that has a metaverse on them are only rare but in case it became popular then I wouldn't be surprised if the term "metaverse casino" will pop out anywhere.

Hypes might be meaningless to you but many project owners are benefiting with it. Remember the hype projects that we have in the past? They aren't making things difficult but they only introduce new stuffs so that some people won't get bored on the usual way of playing a gambling.
