How is GameFi's value model different?

  • The most traditional profit model for game manufacturers: paid game model

Game manufacturers make games, attract players to pay to buy to access all the content of the game, and earn profits by selling game products and DLC (downloadable content, "expansion pack"). For example, GTA and GOW (God of War) all adopt this model. Game manufacturers' The goal is to sell more game products

  • The profit model that has emerged in the past ten years: free game model

The game is free to download and enter, and profit is made by selling in-game products, such as skins/equipment/advertisements. Both LOL and CSGO adopt this model. The more players are attracted, the more skins/equipment will be sold. The game manufacturer’s The goal is to get more players to pay.

  • A new model emerging in Web3 games: the asset ownership model

Is GameFi cold?

If a game doesn't have quality gameplay itself, players will just focus on making money, get bored, and finally quit. Axie Infinity, a very popular Web 3 game in 2021, has a relatively simple gameplay design. In terms of player loyalty, it cannot be compared with LoL or Dota at all, so after a period of time after its popularity, players also quickly lost.

Second, players in the game lack freedom.

GameFi games are usually relatively limited in terms of customization options, which greatly hinders the creativity of players. On the other hand, Warcraft can customize maps, which brings unlimited imagination to players. In addition, most of the existing GameFi are centralized operations, and only the project party can change the rules of the game.

Finally, some mini-economic systems are also designed in the game, which are often considered to be a continuation of DeFi rather than a new game category, which also accelerates the loss of interest of players.

2. Builders in the field of Web3 games are still working hard

With the development of Web3 games, many excellent builders have emerged on GameFi, and some very innovative and top-quality games have gradually emerged.

Here are some excellent Web3 games and developers:

  1. @Treasure_Dao, known as the Nintendo of Web3, is the largest DAO composed of all well-known games in the Web3 game field. Although each game has its own game system, they can trade every $MAGIC and Trove An in-game NFT.

  2. @ohBabyGames, known as the SEGA of Web3, has more than 75 employees, ohBabyGames has released many excellent games and built a complete ecosystem, such as "Mario Kart", "Super Smash Bros", "Fall Guys" "Slay spire".

3. Blockchain needs active users

Blockchain needs to apply innovations to bring more active users. The blockchain itself currently lacks applications that can ensure that users continue to be active on the chain, and a more interesting, complex and immersive GameFi believes that it can attract more people to participate in the blockchain industry. Therefore, gaming may become a target area for further expansion of the blockchain industry.

We look forward to the performance of Line with hundreds of millions of users in Web3, and hope that they can use Line's brand influence and market channels to quickly promote their Web3 games and attract more players to participate in the blockchain world.
