Hello, this is an entry response to this contest.
Introduce yourself, the amount of info you want to share depends on you.
You can imagine a handsome, reclusive peasant with obscure interests. If only five of thirty must be picked from this list, my soul gravitates towards, alphabetically: Freedom, Happiness, Health, Wealth, Wisdom. Or that's it for the moment of writing this sentence. Things that fascinate me are varied, though there are only so many hours in a day and so much brainpower in a man. No, I'm not going to put my face on the Internet.
How did you stumble upon Gods Unchained and what do you think about it so far?
Discovered Gods Unchained when I was duckgoing the dubious existence of Play To Earn games with no investment requirements. Now it's slowly raising in skill, collection value and power rankings, at 225+ lvl, and participated in every blessed weekend.
This is one of the few blockchain games aesthetically pleasant on the eyes. Seriously, who thought toxically coloured pixelated art almost painful to look upon was a great idea?
Every bit of evidence I have signals that GU has the potential to become the largest blockchain game in the world. And weekly development announcements further increase the confidence.
While it is quite clever how Moonpay partnership has no withdraw option, and gas fees prevent $gods price from ever dropping below 3$USD, this problem is a problem. I'm hearing ETH L1-L2 fees won't drop further for years, and they would have to bypass this eventually. Whether by working with more L2-fiat ramp partners, or by building internal swap for another coin on a low-fee blockchain, I do not know.
Longer posts are welcome so feel free to share your thoughts on other things such as blockchain gaming, play2earn, your first impressions of Hive, etc.
blockchain gaming?
I like trustless, mechanised anonymity with minimal KYC and no human factor, and hope the nascent blockchain gaming industy will take my, and other aspirants', wishes into account.
play2earn?
Like water flows downwards, the gamification of everything seems inevitable, and quality P2E is the natural way to outcompete other projects. One might worry that P2E incentives will mass distract people from more productive IRL pursuits. But then, it was a problem with other games as well, so maybe not.
Hive?
It will take a while to familiarize myself with this grand creation. As a rather inspiration dependent person, not yet sure what I'm doing next from my tasklist. But currently, tweaking a useful Gudecks Userscript, planned for publishing here when it will be debugged to my satisfaction.
Thank you for your attention, and so long.
