With the bull run in the sights of many it's time to turn our attention to the web3 space of gaming and how that will most likely explode in value as well. There are few projects that actully made it through the last 2 years of the bear market but those that remain and soon to launch stand a good chance at being something great.
Now of course we have some great games on the hive blockchain already with a few coming soons here's a quick list of those.
Current Active...
Splinterlands
Dcrops
Coming Soon...
HoloZing
It's been wildly said for a while now that crypto would revolutionize the gaming sector. While we have seen some of this happening a lot of the triple A game studios have been meet with a lot of criticism. But honestly if a game can provide it's own economy and asset ownership I see no issue with that what so ever. However when crazy promises are made on top of it that's when I and I think others see the gaming/crypto sector getting a bad rep.
Gaming and AI
Part of this now is AI being incorporated into some of these games. AI can play a rather powerful role in building gaming. In fact many studios now do this and some mods have also come out that have been legit night and day life changing for the games.
The biggest example of this was a AI NPC mode for Elder scrolls in which interaction with NPC felt more life like and depending on previous conversations or conversations with others the NPC would form up totally new dialog with you. It really drastically gave the game a lot more depth.
But that's just one use case. AI also plays a big part in rendering and building worlds. With a few minor command lines the AI generates forests, landscapes and even cities! The person can then go in and make fine tweaks etc to thee areas to give them even more depth but it creates a fast powerful canvas to work with.
Elevating
Now many of these are building AI type studios where the groundwork is there but many games are then built on top of it. We are seeing more and more studios like this launch and then have smaller games under them.
We are also now seeing some that use meme coins and meme like figures within the game to create a partner like system that builds their metaverse.
But the one thing I think these places lack are any real large scale development. The mini games are fun and the ecosystem but they are just that. Mini games and not something like for example Elder scrolls online a game that has been around for years with a powerful economy that keeps players coming back.
These games also take years to develop so I don't see it happening any time soon. However if the platform can build for long enough and fast enough over years then I could see it adopting into this larger scale gaming ecosystem.
Currently people don't own games anymore. Gone are the days of CD's and cool box sets and instead it's all digital. Lose your account or get banned or if that platform shuts down then goodbye to all of your games.
Other places are also trying to bring on celebrities' again to get their "meta verses" going and honestly I feel like this is a mistake. Most people today don't care about celebrities' and look down on them.
What are you thoughts? Should web3 gaming focus on metaverses of large worlds with mini games or should they focus on single larger scale games that have more depth to them?

That's the real challenge with WEB3 gaming to create a compelling gaming environment.
I'd probably play a simple dungeon crawler/RPG with simplistic graphics if the gameplay is fun.
This is a great topic and very interesting. Blockchain has the potential to change the gaming world. For me the point is very clear. To make web3 gaming work you need to have a gaming platform with a convincing tokenomics. One of the best examples of this today is Splinterlands. A tradable card game that runs on HIVE blockchain.
I'm really hoping Holozing ends up being something that can keep people engaged and interested in investing. I have been looking for something new to play for a while now.
