there is some historic background for not using H-E yet (related to ETH as an example -was before my time) but we will see :-)

From memory didn't Rabona makers also made that space game on Steem/Hive as well?
It's pretty lame that its been a good game and am sure would succeed more if it implemented H-E whole heartedly.
Makes me wonder if its a pump and dump type since its not on H-E. I mean getting hive for being placed in a league is good but it doesn't give me any vote of confidence that it is not using Hive to its full potential.
All I can say is the appeal is there since football is a global phenomenon.
Yes - you mean nextcolony that was done also bei @rondras - was before my times on Rabona. Get your thoughts on H-E in general, we might consider again but Rabona is for sure no pump and dump type, all are committed to make this game a long lasting one and hey we are in season 45 already :-). The none H-E listing has some historic background i can not answer in detail to be honest.
Pump and dump. It kinda makes me worried when I look back on next colony because I put hours on that game and to get it shut off.
When I look at games and investing in them all that gets me is time on the game sinked into it. That is the investment.
So when I am now sinking time on rabona and it not being fully implemented into hive. It kinda makes me thoughtful that it could be just in the cusps of disappearing into the abyss.
Seasons are short lived so 45 is not that long or big of a deal to me. If you catch my drift.
Plus other than your post here I have not seen any recent announcement or status to the game and is plans.
Hmmm not sure why you always link serious effort to H-E only, we try to Update more frequently since a while
Because having too many chains, side chains then different wallets.
Its all going out of the ease or the control in an account. I mean why not use H-E when the game is already on hive anyway. And besides if you build a good game, and I can say this game has depth so you will always find players. But if you get them to create here and then create there just to play the game then it just gets to a stage where they will just to find something else to do.
Like play football manager on pc or console. There is a fine line between an enjoyable experience and the pull of making crypto since there are boundless amounts of games being released all the time. You get what I mean?
Updates are great but that is not what we are discussing here. Lets stick to the topic and not add things just to distract the issue.
Let me comment on why we did not implement a HIVE Engine token: The way all games on Hive are implemented today you need to rely on a central game server as Hive does not have a smart contract functionality. So even if we would implement a Hive engine token this would not change the risk that we shut down these servers - which we definitely not plan to do.
When Rabona was born, Hive Engine was basically a centralised service with no real level of decentralisation. This is the reason why we at that point in time decided not to do a token there as it would have meant that you add another layer of centralised services.
I agree that HE today is different from a year ago and we might at some point reconsider this decision. But this was the rationale why we did it this way.
Only time will tell what you guys will do.
I am playing Rabona till it goes away or stays, based on past experience.
