Topic: Can Blockchain Games Revolutionize the Gaming Industry? (Read 337 times)

I believe XAI has the potential for success if it manages to attract traditional gamers worldwide to embrace blockchain gaming. Currently, it seems that most players in blockchain games are from the crypto community. Their primary focus is on earning rather than playing because that's their or rather our interest. Take Axie Infinity, for example, it gained popularity initially, but when the price of SLP dropped, it appeared that players lost interest in playing Axie because their motivation was primarily earning money. However, if the doors of blockchain gaming can be opened to true gamers worldwide, it's likely to thrive.

I hope you include a link to the XAI you mean in your topic. Because there are several XAI tokens that have the same name, the difference is that other tokens are on other networks such as the BNB network.

Meanwhile, the XAI you mean is probably on the arbitrary network, right?
This is the cmc link from XAI that you mean, right? (https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/xai-games/)

At the beginning of its launch, XAI even had a positive response from the crypto community and they were immediately listed on the big market. And this indicates that this project does have great potential in the future. Offchain Labs which is behind this project is also quite strong in fundamentals from my view. But this is an altcoin so you still have to be prepared for the risks. Maybe this is already familiar to the crypto community, but I doubt it is widely known among game fans.

I think so.

People are attracted by easy income, the gaming industry adds a sense of entertainment to all this, and this is not the same experience as from computer games, but a feeling of excitement and hope of winning big. There are already a lot of gaming projects on the blockchain, but all of them did not create a revolution, but only gave a little hype. I think the situation will not change soon, because all such projects were created practically as a carbon copy, absolutely identical.

Don't know about others but I am not investing in any such projects that claim to revolutionize the gaming industry because my fingers have been burnt before.

I invested in a project called ChainGamingX which looked promising, had a doxed team and was looking extremely passionate and knowledgeable about what they were building. The ICO was a success and they raised some 600 bnb which is a good amount I believe.

Then the project went into a dull state and recently they announced the project will not continue and the price has dropped horribly.

I guess what's safe to say right now is that Blockchain games are here to stay. Revolutionize the gaming industry? Nah I don't think so.
Most of the games are being played by most people because of the money that they can earn just by playing through it. There might be some blockchain games that are entertaining for some, but most of them aren't.

Blockchain games will be here to stay, more games will be created. Those old blockchain games will just continue to develop their games by adding new features that may attract more investors. More blockchain games will be made like what's happening right now where some projects's focused on blockchain gaming, and of course, more blockchain games will try to scam investors.

We are nearing the bull market already. In a few months to a year, we might see the market entering the bull phase. Right now, we need to remain vigilant, not get FOMOed, and always be ready just in case the worst thing happens. More projects will be created during the bull market including these blockchain games that might scam investors.

since the token earned from the game was absymal, it was kinda getting abandoned by the entire community, mainly because well its not worth it anymore, back then there was even guild or organization that tries to earn the token as much as they can now that the total supply or circulating supply is more than the demand the game is dying, i think thats just how the cycle of blockchain gaming in general considering the unsustaining economic model its just gets abandoned when the circulating supply of token that gets earned as a reward is decreasing, I guess its gonna be the same with XAI, since if i've seen from the game presented, its not that great.

Blockchain gaming is not new but I think the warming up part is already over. They even got trending last time. I think they are now on a declining stage. I feel sorry for you or to others that still hopes for it to get better. XAI must be late in the party, so I'm not expecting anything that is extra ordinary to it.

But, if we are still planning to invest on it, maybe we can only invest small or skip it, as there are still better crypto projects than it. XAI is a gaming project so it's already expected that their focus is about creating a game and yes that this was still a business after all, so they are also after the money of those who will play/invest on it.

IMO, like many newly launched projects, it always has fluctuations and XAI is no exception. The attention comes from many different things but the potential they create cannot be denied. I am also quite confident in the long-term success of the project in this space, because basically, the gaming field in this environment is still quite limited in scale and has many challenges, the hype is still very there and not all projects have enough potential for long-term development.

I also pay attention to some products in the space such as Ronin development, indeed if a team is serious about the process of finding opportunities in the gaming sector combined with blockchain technology, there is always an opportunity big.

Exactly what revolution it is bringing in? Can you please elaborate? Reward gaming is not something new. It existed before the Blockchain as well. So exactly what revolution Blockchain has brought in? What's the need of a cryptocurrency in gaming?


Web3 is a dead hype and it's pretty much suffering the same fate as NFT. Even companies like Meta has stopped funding their web3 project. My point is very simple, we do not need thousands of cryptocurrencies in the market just in the name of revolution.

IKR!! I also have been following AXS for quite some time now. I even had some axs on my dual investment with satisfactory APR. But TBH, XAI is also worth keeping an eye on, it appears to have the potential to rise in the long run

 I agree with you on the impact of blockchain on gaming, especially with projects like XAI, which is the first layer-3 in the arbitrum ecosystem, designed to onboard traditional gamers to web3 gaming as well as to create a decentralized gaming ecosystem where developers can create and publish games and gamers can enjoy and benefit from them. So I think it is worth trying it now, and hope it will offer more benefits in the future.

What revolutionary things do blockchain games offer? If you look through the eyes of gamers. My answer is nothing. This looks like an opportunity to hype the creators of these blockchain projects. If you look at regular games and blockchain games, there are fundamentally no differences. In both cases, there is a source code, there is an internal currency, and other attributes. Gamers get nothing new except big words about the blockchain.

Will the industry develop in this direction? It is possible, because games, like blockchain, bring good profits, so development will continue here. The question is which blockchain game project will be popular and in demand.

I think the price of Xai easily go down since theres a lot of xai node key holders and got a lot of rewards. Obviously they will sell it as soon as possible as they got some unlimited rewards from node running. Id missed the chance to buy these on early stage anyway thats my opinion. But if they can sustain the tokenomics economy or let the tokens be use to a lot of stuff on their platform it can be a good gamefi.

Being the first Layer 3 in the Arbitrum ecosystem and onboarding traditional gamers into the web3 aspect of gaming, I believe it will perform well amidst the bull run. Observing the price trend 📉📈, XAI is undergoing some retracement, which is normal due to those who received airdrops. I anticipate a reversal soon.

the gaming industry on the blockchain is still underdeveloped. The best coin in the axy infinity gaming specs ticker code is AXS. even then the game is now deserted because the small rewards are not worth the capital spent to make the account strong and win every time you compete in the game.

Blockchain games allow gamers themselves to own in-game items and currency.
This means that players can generate value for themselves
Some blockchain games have been successful and achieved massive player adoption, but many are not good because most games focus more on the play-to-earn aspect than the gaming aspect.
Blockchain technology has revolutionized the gaming industry. Blockchain games are already doing it. The future is now.

XAI? Lauchpool on Binance created hype about this project, but when the team closed all Discord channels. It made everyone panic.
I've never seen such a strange move.

Blockchain game is looking promising, it's a new revolution in the gaming industry and if gammers and investors warms up to it, then there's nothing stopping it's revolutioarizing the industry. What will set XAI apart is the innovations that it'll bring to attract people to it, and being listed on a top exchange like Binance is a good development because a lot of people patronize their services. Although I hope that the core focus of the project will be about the game and having fun, but you can not deterch the business angle altogether.

I think that blockchain technology can change the gaming industry much and projects like XAI are working on it and making a bridge. It is really cool to be able to own things in a game that are like real things in the real world and being able to trade them easily.
XAI is doing something good by creating a special kind of blockchain just for gaming. This makes it easier for gamers to use blockchain technology. They are making it simple and easy to understand. They want to make gaming smooth and easy for everyone.
XAI listed on big exchanges like Bitget and Binance is a good thing. So let's see how this project will perform.

Truthfully, Binance has been through a lot of challenges particularly regulatory issues but I think they'll overcome hopefully. Nevertheless, if it eventually gets banned in your region, you can explore other exchanges like Bitget. Op mentioned XAI being listed on Bitget too.

They might have an effect but they are not revolutionizing anything. When you think AAA+ games, it's most likely better and cheaper and most importantly less confusing, if the game items are controlled by centralized service. They aren't really that decentralizede anyway when you think about it. As when those games stop offering servers and die, so will the items.

I really can't see any upside of storing and trading your own gun skin to centralized service to trading them in decentralized marketplace. But for argument's sake, let's say that game company can ban your account and froze your assets. Then the question isn't really if you can trade your assets in third party market, but why we are supporting such a companies in the first place.

Also XAI isn't most likely going to be one of the success stories even though you are trying to make them relevant as only example for this thread.

The matter the XAI is well design to gap the tradition it will not be interesting like the real games because XAI is already design and configured games so the interest of playing by yourself is not there. The XAI Blockchain gaming will not take over the traditional gaming industry but it might take over the web3 gaming. Though Blockchain games are to remove (revolution) the tradition games but that will not be easy because the tradition games have gain ground.

Blockchain will start to revolutionize it so that many games will switch to Blockchain technology to be more efficient and have better value. In recent years, many games have used blockchain technology and implemented games that are integrated with Web3 so that integration is easy to simplify. Some are quite successful but some have also been abandoned. Like P2E games that don't develop because they don't have the hype anymore.

The impact might not be significant if it gets listed on Binance because we are aware of the recent issues associated with it, and here in our community, there are concerns that it might soon face a ban. Nevertheless, the success of such technology will likely depend on the quality of the games it supports and how well it can maintain its user-friendly approach as it scales. I hope that as blockchain gaming evolves, the fun aspect doesn't get overshadowed. This is what happened in the past years with play-to-earn games; they focused more on earnings rather than the actual gameplay, and this led to their downfall.

Although games have had in-game items that have real world value even before the intervention of blockchain, people still played, so probably people will still play for the sake of fun. Your curiosity isn't wrong. The traffic might increase for the sole aim of profit.

We're not sure yet but it may be possible. The gaming projects have been hyped before and many gamers got crazy about them but the sudden collapse happened and we're not sure if gamers would still trust these new gaming projects anymore. They have to work hard in this just to gain attraction on the gamers and investors because that will affect the future of these projects and developers must know that it is hard to change the minds of the gamers/investors if they had a bad experience in the past. It should be more promising, not just a game.

Blockchain games could have the potential to revolutionise the gaming industry by introducing decentralised & transparent systems. With blockchain technology players can own and trade in game assets eliminating the need for centralised authorities. This opens up possibilities for new gameplay mechanics, cross game interactions & player driven economies. Blockchain's immutability ensures fair play & stops cheating. There could be issues with scalability & user adoption. But if these obstacles are overcome blockchain games could reshape the gaming industry by empowering players & creating new opportunities for creativity, ownership & monetisation.

Love to see how the gaming sector is up and doing , got a couple of them in my portfolio. Get to see new upgrades and features, Xai on the other hand is another worthwhile one. During the course of my research realized it’s a layer 3 blockchain on Arbitrum, simplifying in-game item trading and enhancing accessibility for gamers by addressing issues like high gas fees and complex interfaces.

Hundreds of gaming projects have already launched and we're still no where close of having the perfect blockchain gaming project yet. I know a few comes close to traditional gaming. The user experience is nothing to write home about and performance is an issue. I will keep an eye on Xai and try out their gaming platform.

Even if Xai is being built by Offchain Labs (Arbitrum team), I'm still not convinced yet until they can change the "gaming" on Blockchain narrative.

like Axie, the blockchain is necessary to reward gamers. rewarding gamers had been awhile even before the blockchain but because these tokens are classified as crypto assets also it makes it revolutionary.

the web3 is becoming a hype so its not so bad to see young blood in crypto. teends playing online games utilizing blockchain is an adoption of cryptocurrency. good to see younger people in the industry.

When we talk about blockchain games, the most important factor we must pay attention to are the games themselves, and not exactly the technology or cryptocurrency operating behind them to make the financial transactions involving the games.

You may have a top notch crypto project proposing to revolutionize the gaming industry, but if nobody is willing to play the games they promote, it's just not going to work. Games have to be addicting, exciting, popular and bring some innovative concepts in order to encourage potential players to join on long run. To make ripoffs of popular mmorpgs will just work (probably) on short run, for hype and speculative reasons, meaning it's not revolutionazing anything.

We have already seen this before with several blockchain games. On the other hand, I believe the opportunity of making something new and bigger always exist and it's pretty possible it comes from a crypto project, because many people nowadays resumed their lives to playing computer and smartphone games. Their lives are passing, and they are spending (or wasting) their whole time on this activity, so naturally it's fair and desirable they make some income from it to survive...

Games aren't solely entertainment hobbies anymore, like they used to be decades ago, when people seeked games to relief from daily stress. Now they are integral part of people's routines. Actually, that is how the gaming industry revolutionized the world. What comes next is just a consequence of this revolution.

Games have had in-game items that have real-world value for a good while now; even way before blockchain existed. In-game items will have demand simply because the players want it; regardless if blockchain is used or not.

No sure what revolution you are talking about? Why launching a separate token is necessary in the name of Blockchain gaming? Why a Blockchain is necessary for in-game purchase? What innovative idea is a token is bringing in?

I don't think the market needs millions and millions of tokens for specific applications. This is simply clogging the master network with huge volumes and pushing the gas fees higher. What's the utility?

It's fascinating how blockchain gives in-game items real-world value. But I'm curious, do you think this will change the core motivations for playing? Will fun still be the main driver, or will maximizing earning potential take over?
This whole Arbitrum Layer 3 thing for traditional gamers sounds promising too. Cause It could be something big here, especially if they start bringing out some killer games.

But I'm not saying it's guaranteed to moon and all. Although the price has been on an upward trend since the listing.

They need to make it more attractive to the gamers not just the Earning opportunities because it will be crowded by bots and other abusive players that will gonna be just there to play the game for money. they need to balance it more and not cause any trouble to the players that dedicating their time to grind items most of all, don't make it a PaytoPlay game because these kinds of games will only last for a while, and with lots of updates to make you spend lots of money, it's not really good for anyone who is looking for fun in a game.

XAI and blockchain gaming look pretty exciting! Owning in-game stuff for real, easy trading, and even having a say in game decisions is like a gamer's dream. XAI seems to cut through the blockchain complexity for gamers, fixing things like high fees and tricky wallets. Getting listed on big exchanges is a good sign, but the real deal is if gamers jump on board and XAI delivers what it promises.

Blockchain games stand a chance of changing the game industry because they're probably blurring the gap between gaming and investment. which means one could just be having fun and at the same time making an investment that will have real-life value.

For XAI, it's perhaps been growing exponentially, and it seems to be a success among others because it has been listed on Binance, and I bet it's already making an impact.

While XAI was successfully completed on the distribution of its token through Binance. I don't think that we're going back to the era where these gaming industries are going to be revolutionizing this market again. Maybe some might still survive but I just don't think that the entirety of them will still be bought by the community. However some of the people can stay on their own community playing their games and owning their tokens, it's that it's very different this time.

Blockchain technology is poised to revolutionize the gaming world, offering the tantalizing prospect of owning in-game assets as real-world items, seamless trading, and even player involvement in game governance. Projects like XAI are leading this charge.

XAI aims to bridge the gap between traditional gaming and Web3 by creating a dedicated gaming-focused layer3 blockchain, simplifying blockchain integration for all gamers. They've also tackled issues like high gas fees and complex wallet interactions with innovative solutions.

XAI has already secured listings on major exchanges like Bitget and Binance, attracting a crypto gamer community to explore this blockchain in its early stages.

Ultimately, I would love to hear your thoughts on XAI and the potential future of blockchain gaming.
