Although I believe the entire endeavor to be wasted funds, I see value in Peakmonsters developing it. Made Splinterlands playable back in the day. You have my trust. Aligning with my beliefs, my Hive and

Then SPS DAO's priorities are misplaced.

Web3 people like to forget that web2 exists, and on the verge of bankruptcy, they worry more about web3. It's like a game company hiring another just to manage the drop rate of gold and the storage of

Splinterlands and SPS DAO are intertwined in their financial interests. To think one can function without the other, is comedy. And Splinterlands is in the process of asking the DHF for 500k. I find it

This is comedy. SPS validator nodes are pointless Splinterlands-specific baggage. No one really cares. Not the players, not the whales. Instead of asking DHF for 500k, use the 480k that's being wasted

I strongly agree with you that Splinterlands is not fun. The new game Soulkeep pales in comparison to Crazy Defense Heroes (which also has crypto elements.) The only people who find Splinterlands fun are

Finally, I remember one such game: Crazy Defense Heroes.

So back in 2021, I looked up the tournaments requirements /prizes etc. Not only did they have collection power requirements, and then later on SPS staked requirements, the prizes were also unattractive

HBD is only as stable as hive. I've withdrawn all my hive stuff anticipating collapse. 20% APR is unsustainable, and you don't want to be around when people scramble for the exit.

Hmm, I can compare several projects. Card games: Splinterlands, Gods Unchained, Skyweaver Econ games: Dcity, Cryptomines (dead) Axie, and a clone: Karastar (dead), Axie Infinity. Maybe a meta analysis

What are the projects that have lasted the longest under crypto conditions? I wonder if this includes "dead" projects, like Illuvium. Projects that keep promising to deliver but actually never

I found it close enough to Hearthstone Battlegrounds. Was that the inspiration for it? I enjoyed that on and off. First game put me at 5 hp vs someone at 15, so that seems like an error?

I agree that a fun experience should be first. The creators of the game are overly fixated on economy manipulation whereas for games with economies (real money trading) even though it's not supported or

I don't think being free matters as opposed to literal pennies. The prizes are far too low relative to the costs of investment. Who's going to spend $400 to win a $20 top prize (if even that.) (Yes, you

MTG arena has a $25 fee for tournaments. 2.5k Prize. Splinterlands is still for peanuts, and requirements to enter (power, sps.) Are so large relative to winnings. Prizes are too low, cost to enter is

It amazes me that this game still doesn't support a tournament like the ones from MTGA. $25 entry, 2.5k prize. (I assume entry fees are net positive for the company.) I suggested something similar like

Fees do not make sense. From the above example, neither do 3 steps offer 0 fees, nor is it that the fees = zero.

Things like Hive are "free" but to put real money into it? nah. I did slowly trade up from an initial $10 Splinterlands account. As for exposure to crypto? I don't think that's needed anymore

But here, value is zero. Wouldn't it be better to bet on things where value > price?

Since I'm looking at this again, do you need workers for full building benefits or just income?
