Well, I came here for the games, I even spent some money for Hive, and 2nd layer tokens, that I could receive some post rewards from the beginning.
At the moment, I regret that sudden jump. Nobody advertise these games in the way: you double or triple pay for everything. No they advertise as free to play games, or in better case NFT games, play to earn games. So nobody ever suppose any kind of front spendings.
The 2 games what for I mostly came here, the Splinterlands and Genesis League Goals are totally the same.
I just picked the Hashking game, as they have no shame to write out: 8 Passes Left...馃榾 Next to that the page looks like bad, actually awful. Much worse than the average similar scams out there.
The reality:
It's much worse than any other kind of gaming. In the traditional gaming industry, you buy a game for any kind of platform, and that's yours. Most of the case in some kind of physical form.
Here, it works like that: you pay (usually $10) to get access to the platform, where you have to spend more to be able to play...
Who these people want to scam? In a time, when the totally free NFT games with free earning opportunity are on the rise. The fact, actually these kind of games are doing much better than any game on Hive. The Gods Unchained is the best example.
What is in the mind of the people, who have found out this upfront cost, what for I basically get nothing???
I can't find better words for that, simply greedy, stupid, insane...
I am not wondering further, why their in-game tokens in free fall, worse than other similar games' tokens out there.
I still will use the Hive, but obviously for different purpose. Or post about different blockchain games, what are much better and cost much less or about traditional games, what I actually play in my free time.
Huge disappointment! More or less everything around here...
