RE: Pokerlands: A Splinterlands Parable

Hey dagger! Sorry for taking so long to get back to you. I appreciate your comment.

To be clear, I'm not mad at investors and I think it's good to encourage players to build their deck. I just think the current system pushes players away and attracts people who only want to extract value from the game. Nobody is investing thousands in a game that isn't fun to play unless they know they can make a profit at it. And not everybody in the game can make a profit. Now, if people enjoy playing the game, they don't care as much about profit and would be more inclined to spend rather than invest.

I believe in the team and I believe in this game, but I sometimes wonder how much their vision differs from mine.

Yeah, it's a fine line to walk. The real key will be having the pieces in place if and when the next bull run hits. If they can get land operational and, as I said, almost a standalone game by itself, then there will be multiple avenues to either spend or invest. And if the crypto in peoples' bags is all of a sudden worth a bunch more, then a chunk of that will find it's way into the game. Time will tell.
