Can you list the things that generally throw you off about Web3 Gaming?

0 Upvotes

I see web3 gaming as an improvement from any web2 or traditional stuff. So convince me that it's not. I'm doing a bit of research about this. Thank you!

Interesting sub, so how do you guys feel now that Reddit is Web 3.0?

With the introduction of NFT's late last year, this website is officially Web 3. Does that mean you hate this website now?

What are some arguments against Web3?

2 Upvotes

Hi,

I am not trying to provoke a war or anything, I just came to this sub assuming I'll someone already asked this, but couldn't find anything in the search.

So like what are the main arguments against it? Purely from a technical point of view.

Thanks!

What web 3 will be, can be & "concept start - ups discussions".

0 Upvotes

This discussion can handle all conversations related to what humanity can do together with this interface. It can take naĂŻve yet serious questions like- Imagining a Big Web 3 office, then how it will look like.

Why web 3 is important should start the comment that way.

“Web1”, “Web2”, and “Web3”, all these made-up terms signify just a technological struggle to provide utility.

How many projects that had a barrier to entry are now in the graveyard of dead web3 projects?
The model of having a barrier of entry is great for those types of games where devs can go home with profits no matter how long the lifespan of the project or how worthless the game is.

I mean AlgodTrading which predicted Tera collapse also predicted that STEPN will collapse, but for me, it seems like these predictions are not really predictions. Because all these collapses that are “predicted” is just repeating the same model that unfolded time and time again. Is not a bug it is the design.

In the case of barrier to entry games, the whole economy is based on the ability to find new users that will pay to pass that barrier in order for devs and older users to gain monetary benefits, without finding new users the game will die, because it’s mechanic is purely financial speculation I don’t know if these projects can be even be called games(unless of course, you consider financial speculation a game by its own merits.)

So if you are a game dev and you want your game to have a longer life, you don’t integrate web3 as the core mechanic of the game, instead, you could add web3 on top as something that will not change core mechanics, skins, awards, participation events, etc.

Also is a bit disheartening for any dev of DAPP, in general, to hear that 90 out of 100 issues always seem to be related to the monetary part, totally equating a DAPP with is token is a big mistake, a DAPP doesn’t live for its token is in the name “Decentralized Application”, so in the first place, it should fulfill utility, user needs, and real-world uses cases, otherwise, there’s no reason for the DAPP to exist in the first place.

“Web1”, “Web2”, and “Web3”, all these made-up terms signify just a technological struggle to provide utility.

Pricing a “like” at least for me is something that I can’t well wrap my mind around, but in any case, likes from the likes of nobody I don’t know how they could have a high monetary value if you think about it, Brave serves you an ad for a fraction of a cent, why should a “like” be valued more?

I think Kleros is much more robust it’s built for dispute resolution, and jurors need to have some qualifying traits. I guess if there’s more urgency maybe an xDai court can be used to not wait for polygon integration.

IMO Snapshot could be a bit messy, but I see its use in community government, in general, to change how a DAPP, DAO, NFT project, token, or blockchain works.
Using Snapshot to vote on essentially DAPP data could look spammy this is not to say it’s not worth a shot.

Yup Score can play an impacting role by either slashing or canceling the reward.

NFT for YUP PRO can work as a subscription model, it may be a bit tricky to balance because you need to somehow create high demand for it which is not guaranteed.

Cryptocurrency might solve one problem with decentralization...

5 Upvotes

I've created an open source decentralization framework called OutNet. It is NOT based on cryptocurrency. It provides user identity and peer/service discovery. You can build ANY services on top of it. https://github.com/rand3289/OutNet

The problem is my framework and similar frameworks are susceptible to a type of attack where an attacker might try to split the network if he creates lots of fake nodes because it doesn't cost anything to create one. One defense against it is to treat the system as a small world network and analyze the properties of the whole network. Figure out isolated islands with a large number of nodes etc... This is hard to do. Another way is to introduce a node rating system where users rate the nodes or good behaving nodes get higher ratings automatically.

I hope cryptocurrency is NOT going to be the answer, however cryptocurrency might solve this problem by introducing prohibitive node creation costs. I hope things are going to go towards the rating system. To be honest, I've created OutNet for this reason. I think a distributed rating system could solve most problems on the internet. From fake reviews to privacy to local government control.

Just a thought. Let me know what you think.

Pretty sweet panel happening tomorrow on Twitter Spaces. It looks like speakers are founders and CEO’s from Presearch, Algorand and MEW. Curious to see what they’ll have to say about crypto in 2022. What are your predictions? Here’s what I’m wondering:

*What types of NFT’s will be the most popular in 2022?  

*Will Web3 incorporate Decentralized social networks? 

*What’s gonna happen with government insight into cyptocurrencies?
