Crypto gambling sucks, but developers can fix it
Crypto game not working. Developers need to focus more on the fundamentals and less on the cosmetics in order to fix this.
Opinion
What we have today in terms of Web3 games doesn't work. Play-to-earn didn't work and neither play-to-earn nor any X-to/and-earn. On top of that, mainstream players view non-fungible tokens (NFTs) with suspicion. They dunk on expensive monkeys and are skeptical of big game publishers lipsticking NFTs for extra monetization.
No one knows yet what a successful Web3 game will look like. To achieve this, we need more developers to experiment with more models. We need an infrastructure that will reduce barriers to Web3 game development and make it easier for developers to experiment. This is why it is imperative to invest in the development of the underlying infrastructure rather than getting carried away by the speculative hype.
The Web3 gaming infrastructure can be divided into two phases:
Prerelease: Infrastructure for Pre-Game Launch Post Release: Infrastructure for post-game launch.In both phases of development, Web3 games need technical infrastructure (blockchains, analytics and tools), financial infrastructure (marketplaces and launch pads) and a third category which covers both types of infrastructure, such as metaverse platforms and guilds.
Navigating Mint in Pre-Release DevelopmentGame developers have a wide range of options to choose from when deciding where and how to create game NFTs. Specialized gaming blockchains such as ImmutableX and Klaytn offer low or no gas fees and high throughput.
Many games also implement their own blockchains to enjoy maximum flexibility and scalability. Axie Infinity launched the Ronin sidechain, and DeFi Kingdoms has an Avalanche subnet called DFK Chain. However, launching an independent channel is not technically simple.
Emerging players like Saga are trying to capture this new demand by providing a simplified experience for developers looking to launch their own channels.
Unique active wallets connected to DeFi and GameFi apps from January 2022 to August 2022. So...
