If blockchain does realize the vision of cross platform items, then yes, since the value of the item doesn’t die with the game, which life time is always limited

back in early 2000's when i was addicted to games,i am spending half of my monthly wages just to buy all the things i need for leveling my account ,including Sets and accessories.and all of the sudden after 9 years of playing that damn game shut down.

you know the feeling?i think all gamers can felt what i am saying here.

from that day forward?i stop playing games that need to spend money,all games i am playing now is free and don't need even single cent to enjoy.

Can feel ya mate, happened many times to me before.

What's the kicker is that a game goes F2P and those who paid for it are the suckers.

No, I never spent money on online game items and never wanted to. Because you play games like this or there are many games that you can play for free, even the premium eagles. I don't think you should spend money on playing games. You can open new accounts and play new games online at ease with free and premium time.

Its not worth it spending money on online games. Since all online games nowadays doesnt last long, its either going offline or the owner of the game messes it up  Grin so spending is pointless  Grin

I have never spend money more than 1 dollar in games. Even if i like a lot the game. I believe if you want to become strong in that game. You must not use any money, you will use all your skills only. Spend time to learn and earn everything. There is no short cut for everything, so even if you are farming and grinding in that game. You are gaining some patience and skills.

If you not a smart gamer then why you need spend money in online game? Actually right have many people spend money in online game but their have lot of skills so first take yourself. In fact many free games have still you can playing with free so no need spend your money.

Each person chooses what to do and not to do. But I believe that it's not rational to spend money on entertainment if you can have fun for free (there are a lot of ways). In addition, I say so, because I believe that the development of personality is important. Games most often don't give this, unless this is of course a special game for developing logic, for example. Therefore, my answer is: I never spent money this way, especially crypto in games.

And i'm not a boomer Grin

it depend on the game if i fell in love with this?sure i will spend some money to provide my needs like armors and weapons.

years back when i was still a gamer?i buy items but i also sell,so in total i dont really spend my money because it came from the items i sell,what i only spending is my time and effort hunting exotic items and for leveling.

In games like mmorpg and other pay to play games

This model has proven to be effective, the so called "free to play" games. Carefully balanced, it can be a hit, but do it wrong and you end in a "pay to win" scenario which will probably kill your game before you know it.

The basic idea is trading time with money. One group of players, have plenty of time but no money, the other group has money but no time (because they work, duh).

In this way you try to balance your game to cater both. Grind and farm for a chance to get the very same items that could be instantly bought.

It is bad when some things are restricted to pay only, unless absolutely cosmetic, it falls in the realm of "pay to win".


So the answer to your question would be yes, but only if the game is well balanced...

I was a gamer for a lot of period of time.
I never spend a dollar in the online games as I don't find it worthy.
Spending money would not make any difference in enjoying the game for me.

I am a lover of online games but I would love to be a skilled and experienced in any game I play without having to pay even one cent to buy items, You may buy these items but you are not a professional and have no skill so these items will have no value with you, better to be a professional player and get these items by your skills and not by your money.

I will rather not spend money on online game items,this is because it is not a wise investment to carry out.There are other things to purchase on line even Bitcoin can be purchased among others, what is the probability of getting the money you spend on online game back? and that is reason why  it will be more better to invest  my money than  to spend it on online game items.

I've always been a gamer and I used to spend money for my in-game items. And during those times, I'm unemployed and dependent to my parents and now that I'm employed, I can purchase every item that I want.

But now that I'm a family man, this is no longer a priority to me but I have games that are my type to purchase on steam.  Grin
