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.

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?

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 wonder why a lot of games still want to integrate "metaverse" into their structure? I mean, the game looks great as it is, and they can implement trading in-game items with crypto if they wanted to, without having to touch the "metaverse" thing. Mir4 did this, although the game ended up to be a classic MMORPG where everyone only wanted bragging rights, less about the money-making aspect but still it is somewhat successful even up to this day.

Imagine if all old games will be revived with the word "metaverse " on it, I'm pretty sure people will jump on board not because of the metaverse but rather to relive their memories and satisfy their nostalgia whilst playing the game.
They are free to adopt, and adoption is a good development if they want to attract more players and to retain the old one.
With this, I want to experience as well to gamble in a metaverse set-up and feel the casinos vibes even if you are at hope playing the games that you like.
I'm not familiar about the site Dragon's Tale, is there any reputable gambling site who also have a plan to update into a metaverse?

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.

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.

Completing the mission and the treasure hunts seems not like a gambling for me, is this just a metaverse with a gambling games or a gambling site itself?
I’m not familiar with this site but I’m curious how this thing works since metarverse hype didn’t last and they are down already. Let’s see if that site can still make a good updates and have a good promotions as well so many will be more familiar about this.

This is the first time I've heard of a Dragon's Tale game. I visited the website and quickly looked at the game and thought it might be interesting to play. Maybe I'll download this game later and see what it looks like.

And if it's really a free game and makes money, maybe I'll just keep playing and trying to make every satoshi. I think we can play this game on a computer or laptop without having high specifications. Do you already try @OP?
^Metaverse games are usually free-to-earn games or trade and purchase of an item on the game.
I am also not familiar with this game but probably it is worth it to give it a try if we really confused about it. I have done some searching and looking on google what is dragon tale games and I found an app that probably we can practice this game, https://apps.apple.com/us/app/dragon-tale-free-rpg-dragon-game/id725030261.

Not familiar with the site and I wonder how much your cost will be for you to play on a metaverse gambling site. This is actually cool if implemented properly since you can experience to gamble as if you are really there playing. How’s the performance of this site so far? Are many interested to gamble like this or you still prefer the traditional one?

I have never heard about this project and I like how it looks and the whole concept behind it.
Even though, the graphics are not good enough some people, I really like them, it remind me some MMOs I used to play during the 2010's.

The screenshots even remind me a bit of this game called Metin2 (https://gameforge.com/en-US/play/metin2), in the end the graphics are only part of the experience, if the rest of the platform is fun and well integrated then it is worth of one's time, not mentioning that more people with simple and cheap computers are able to sign up.

I am curious how efficient Dragon's Tale is managing the withdrawals and deposits and how much one can customize one's avatar, etc.

Thank you for sharing!

This game didn't get popular among crypto enthusiasts. Actually, it's the first time I'm hearing about Dragon's Tale. I'm not sure, however, if it is a metaverse.

They mixed gambling and mmorpg elements to create an online game, although the gambling games presented by them are also different from the traditional ones we find at virtual casinos such as slots and wheel.

I think to consider it a metaverse, games' features should go beyond. There must be more freedom, interactivity and customization on the virtual world, otherwise it is just an open world online game like GTA series or mmorpgs.

Metaverse is only adding another barrier between you and the casino.

I'm not agree with you, this kind of casinos are a different experience than gambling in online sites. This kind of games give a sensation close to those FPS games (First Person Shooter), I would call this gambling experience as First Person Casinos (FPC)

Another good examples of this kind of casinos used to be the ones in Second Life:


And as i mentioned before, the experience is totally different than online casinos or real ones.

I remember that game, it used to be fun and the statues worked as faucet, you could get 0.001BTC from them and use that to gamble on their different games.

Another nice feature was the parties, when someone wins big they used to buy virtual drinks for all.

I'm not sure if the game still working i will give it a try this weekend.
I actually haven't tried that casino/game actually and it is my first time hearing it. Based on your description it's like an MMORPG game because there are other players that you can enjoy with your drinks. 0.001 is a big enough amount for a faucet if we are talking about the current value today so I might think that it is a very old game and addition to that is the graphics, It's like RAN online (a MMORPG game that I played before).

I believe that even we don't have this casino/game before, we all will head towards metaverse since there were a lot of MMORPG games and concept before that is almost the same as this.

I'm not sure if it's obvious from the op what they're site is so I found the start of a description on their website (trying to keep it brief but with enough info).

Quote
Dragon's Tale is home to games unlike any other casino. You wont find a craps table, roulette wheel, or black jack dealer like in other online gaming sites. Instead you will discover a persistent 3D world filled with original games designed to attract casino gamblers and MMORPG players alike. While about half of the games in Dragon's Tale are simple as a slot machine, others require deep thought and skill. In addition to solo games we've also included unique player versus player games so patrons can stack their wits against others. Scroll your mouse over a game icon to view a short description, or visit the Dragon's Tale Wiki to get a more in depth look.

It looks like an interesting concept that might have something working well behind it but the lack of adverts have probably stunted its growth (games might take a long time to be matchmade too for pvp versions).

I'd be skeptical of how little it's being advertised though in case it has quite a few bugs and they're trying to keep it fairly hidden until those are fixed - unless it had its hayday and re-emerged as a lot of companies and products do (like wearable tech).

I am just hearing about this Dragon's Tale game today. However, I just checked the site and as per my initial thoughts, this is not a metaverse. 3D games or virtual games do not define the true definition of metaverse. Metaverse would be real where you will physically go while still remaining at your home. We might not understand this logic today but with 5G internet, the imagination will be limitless. It just a matter of time when the world will be transformed into a metaverse.
[/quote]

I guess that's debatable. IMO, Dragon's tale is much like an embryo of what the Metaverse is today when compared to decentraland or Sandbox. If you take a look at the Metaverse significance "In futurism and science fiction, the metaverse is a hypothetical iteration of the Internet as a single, universal and immersive virtual world that is facilitated by the use of virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) headsets. In colloquial use, a metaverse is a network of 3D virtual worlds focused on social connection." it does imply that online games such as Dragon's tale which is capable of gathering thousands of players in the same virtual environment are in fact an embryonic depiction of the Metaverse.

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?

It's definitely interesting to see all these older versions of open worlds and the terminology to reinvent this wheel. Obviously newer versions, which have since relabelled themselves as the metaverse, have more computing power available which will always improve them over time - but the whole idea has existed for such a long time now. Let's hope that the latest leach, Facebook, is prevented from stealing any patents in relation to their new open world environment because that is often what stifles new competitors from later joining the market, it often isn't about them being the first creator but the first one attempting to patent it without useful opposition.

I remember it very clearly, it was also not a small amount neither because back in those days bitcoin didn't worth much, so if you played it, there was a good chance you could have collected a few coins a month as well. However "metaverse" shouldn't be diluted with all these dragons tale, decentraland and such projects because these are just games, they are games where you use coins of those games and those coins are connected to blockchain, compared to all other games which doesn't have coin connected to blockchain, thats it. Metaverse should be something much bigger, don't know how but it should be a second reality, and if we can reach that level then we can call it metaverse.

I’m not aware of this but this project is really very old and outdated already. The graphics based on the images on the website looks like retro games in era of battle realms and vice city vibes. The game is only playable via windows game but I doubt that the developers is still incentivizing all players with Bitcoin since this is already pretty outdated.

Do you try it personally? I’m gonna test right sfter I run the app using my virus checker just to make sure I’m not downloading a game with virus on it. Thanks for sharing this gem

Yeah, I have played it for quite a while. A lot of people were actually able to win some coins out of this but I have never made it. I still hold my old account, you can try to find me in case you instal it and start playing the game. I recently installed it again and got in a couple of times eve though the game seems to be pretty silent.

There were similar 3D games before we just don't call it Metaverse back then. Metaverse is just the term used now to make hype but this Dragon Tale features games that are unheard of. They accept BTC though so maybe there are people playing.

Dragon tale graphics are just like the games we play back 20 years ago. if it's not a popular place, it certainly is not a place for players.
