-snip- blockchain gaming might take over gaming industry some day, Unity and other big giants are already getting to web3 blockchain gaming projects, I believe that play to earn games will make some biggest gains in 2024, let's wait and see.

Blockchain games are struggling to grow because most players are focused on "profit" rather than fun. The success of traditional games is because they are (players) willing to give their time to play as entertainment. Whereas in the era of blockchain-based games with P2E systems, the hype made this game appear as a phenomenon to get instant profits. This changes the way of thinking in playing., so, when players feel they are not getting any profits anymore, even though they have spent money to buy NFTs (for example), in the end they leave the game. actually, i don't really understand how they are thinking about spending money, because many traditional games nowadays are willing to spend money for in-app items purchase without any chance to resell it.

for now play to earn has been abandoned by many people, because it is no longer profitable, but if in the future there are big game companies that make new innovations about play to earn, then maybe play to earn will be of interest to many people again, because for now there is no play to earn that gives profit like axie and metamon (which I have played), so people stop playing and invest in play to earn, but I'm still sure if play to earn can back in existence and booming again in the future (just waiting for the market to recover).

The hype may be lower but I think a lot of people are still playing games like Axie or Splinterlands. The token price of all blockchain based games has dropped a lot but it was also up without any good reason. You can still make some good money with these games if you get in very early and can sell at the right time.

The big drop that happened was not just based on these games but the whole market crashed, so there is a truth in the fact that it will recover and there is nothing wrong with them, it wasn't their fault and it was a market thing.

However, when we are talking about something that is a bit more towards how you could make a profit with these? Then it has to be about the hype, in order for them to grow bigger they need to make the users profit, and they are not doing that right now, which is the issue. If they go back to profitable point then the users will come back and when they come back there will be more buyers and even more profit and the hype will be back again.

What do you think about play to earn blockchain games? Do you think that video game players will one day abandon Sony and Microsoft companies for play to earn games or Microsoft and Sony will one day be forced to allow play to earn games to run on their gaming devices?

What? LOL I think what you are thinking there is crazy. First of all, there is no way that we can compare the games of those two giant companies from the games that we are seeing here in the crypto/blockchain space because their differences are just a million miles a way. Sony and Microsoft have been making games ever since the world began but crypto/blockchain game developers are most likely new to this industry and as you can see, their games are pretty basic.

Second of all, I don't think owners of those two companies will play crypto/blockchain based games once their games have been beaten up by it. They will only play their own creations because they believe that it was still fun than the rest of the games out there.

This was how Nokia used Apple to laugh at launch, you will never know what will happen, blockchain gaming might take over gaming industry some day, Unity and other big giants are already getting to web3 blockchain gaming projects, I believe that play to earn games will make some biggest gains in 2024, let's wait and see.

The most entertaining, well done and complete Play to Earn games developed so far didn't show any respect and consideration for the community of players, rather their only goal was to milk money from players, without caring about long term goals and survival of the game. They were MIR4 and Ni No Kuni. Bots and toxic players killed the environment. And that is so sad, because the games were really good and promising.

With some adjustments those games could be popular until nowadays, while working as side income for many players. If at some point in the future a studio comes with a similar idea, but propitiating a friendly environment for every players (not only the addicted, wealthy ones) I think it will be a huge success.

I'm not sure but P2E in this market is still not really clear, a few successful projects and excessive hype make it inflated in terms of value and demand.
Personally, I also tried to experience some metaverse games but it did not meet my expectations, the game format is simple and they just exaggerate the token price.

The core concept behind play-to-earn is not something that has just entered our lives. In fact, it has been appearing in different forms and names for a while; one of them is to earn income by watching ads, for example. However, the rapid transition to web3, the new version of the internet which focuses on decentralization and user ownership, and the increasing number of blockchain games started to add real meaning to play-to-earn as a term. So what is play-to-earn, and how does it work? Which games can you earn income from while playing? You can find answers to these and many more questions in this article.

As for the P2E issue in this space, I think it is still too young and flawed, we need time to develop and also popularize blockchain crypto knowledge to many people. It can be seen that this or many other areas of life today are too familiar, and there will be a change strong enough to make us see P2E completely different from what happened.

It needs changes to perfect p2e so that it is of great interest and not boring so that it gives comfort and satisfaction in playing. That problem must be fixed with technology that is developing at all times, for sure in the future it can be perfect. now losing to gambling game systems such as online casino machines

What we had from the last bull run was really incredible on play-to-earn games which I believe was really the hype before and trend.
Future of it, for sure it will not be the same again just like before where you can earn too much money while just playing, maybe in the future there will be some twist before you can earn, like maybe there will be some combination of Decentralized Finance (DeFi) like staking/liquidities or/and NFT combination.

Play to Earn blockchain games have a really good prospect because more people are getting to know crypto and it is usually exciting to know that you can earn some of your favourite cryptocurrency by spending your time on a very cool game. P2E games are a big threat to traditional gaming companies no doubt because they are competitors.

these kind of play to earn game has done for, it shows that their economic model aren't really sustaining therefore their valuation plummets overtime, meanwhile they also losing their userbase slowly because as is the nature of game in general, it gets boring overtime, with the fact that most of cryptocurrency based games aren't that good honestly, if some project could pull off some good games that's worth the money, then i'm sure it could easily succeed but the truth is, most of the game are just normal ordinary game that usually didn't sell and just add some cryptocurrency feature in it and they call it a day.

I do not think Microsoft and Sony will implement play-to-earn games when they are earning massive amounts of money without that function. Why would I, the owner bother myself of giving away my profit when my product is already in demand and in profit? They may allow integrating play to earn games in their system but I think they will charge for it, instead of them developing such kind of technology.

As long as these two company is delivering what their client and audience want, I think game players will not abandon these two company.

I have played several of these games and invested in improvements to my character option. But for a long time I was not enough, and after about three months, interest in this is lost. And apparently it's not just me. So I think new ones will appear, but also not for long.

I also do not have enough interest in games for a long time.In such games, the goal is to earn most often and as soon as possible to recoup my investments and make a profit, and after I get the first profit,interest in the game fades.

Perhaps gamers have an interest in this kind of platform when the price is high. I can really remember those days when the market is bullish and many got crazy joining them like in Axie Infinity but sadly, they are quite leaving when the price dump. And I expect such a scenario in the coming days, they'll turn back somehow but then just leave again just like what they did before. In this case, P2E is seasonal and as an investor, it never gives us security and possibly, they will totally collapse for another interesting gaming projects.

I don't see that happening soon with the big companies. Steam doesn't like blockchain stuff, they see it as a gateway to money laudering and scams. They prefer to control their in-game items and the marketplace.
Sony and Microsoft - not so sure.
Epic is set to launch like 10+ blockchain games this year, we'll see how that goes but Epic alone cannot make a change, they don;t have that many users using their platform for games other than Fortnite.

I agree, I remember last time I have a client in my freelance work they already have a game om steam but I asked why do people need to buy the royalties, tokens in another website or platform they said that steam is not yet open for that. I just hope that steam can finally accept cryptocurrency so that they can cater more and more people and also they can go with the flow of web3.

We'll see, maybe during the next bull run Grin

They had crypto payments enabled but they stopped them because they were getting a lot of fraudlent transactions and the currency conversion was cumbersome for them.

There are large number of online gaming that us based on blockchain technology and it entertain the individuals who are involved in gaming. Future is unpredictable and we don't know that what will be in future, there is no guarantee for tomorrow so how we will know the results after some years. Now these crypto technology related games are very interesting and without entertainments these games gives the opportunity to make some money and spend their life happily.

It was never really a profitable business model in the long run and people failed to see it. Just to take Axie Infinity as an example because it was by far the most popular one, that was a terrible one with a very bad approach only because we are talking about unlimited amount of axies that could be breeded, and there weren't enough people in the world to stop that from going down, sure it could go on for a while, but even if all 8 billion people wanted tens of billions of axies, there is this curve where it has to go down, so it was always doomed to end in a crash. That's why I think all these play to earn games will end up sucking big time in the future.

I would say, it depends on the taste of a real gamer since most gamers doesn't need to actually earn just to play the game. I, myself would like to play a good storyline games where I could enjoy the graphics and challenges. If ever someone could put those good storyline and good graphics in a P2E then I think most gamers would switch to it but I believe it won't last long considering on how they would actually give a forever payment.

It's like trading, someone will win and someone will lose. Soon these people will realize that it's not gonna last forever just like how P2E NFT games did. There has to be a flow of money in order for this to last.

Most people talk about the same game, which is Axie but look at the prices and how much people lost and you will realize that it is not a good business model. I mean I know a guy who lost 22 thousand dollars worth of value on his axies, imagine spending 25k on axies and then it worths 3k dollars instead, does that even make sense as an investment.

Look, don't get me wrong, I lost some money too, but I lost about 60-70% range at the biggest rate ever, and that is from the peak to bottom, losing nearly 90%? That sounds like as bad as it gets. And that is the most know and "successful" one, think about all the ones that weren't this good and failed in the end.
