Why do you Splinterlands, oh why ?!?!???

in #splintertalk3 years ago

Why do you play Splinterlands? Is it to relax? Do you play Splinterlands to connect with friends and make new friends? Why engage in this online activity? Is it to make money? Build reputation? To find success? Right now with the pandemic; I don't think anyone can be blamed for it being any of these answers or other reasons. Post why you play if you would like. Or just give a newbie a like me a heart or sign that this made you think about something positive.

Thank you,
Dom

Since you have many questions, I would break down my answers into multiple parts. 😅

  1. I play #Splinterlands because I mainly want to get both entertained and earnings at the same time. 🎮💵 I kept hearing the name "Splinterlands" alongside "play-to-earn" games which means it is popular, so I joined it. 😏
  2. I did think that the game would help me "relax", but not until I battle against opponents with Legendary Summoners such as Yodin Zaku which defeats me roughly 80% of all Battles with them. 🤯😅
  3. I can't connect with "friends" IRL because I don't know any who play the game. 😐 Anyway, it's hard to make new friends if you don't know anything about them (apart from the fact that they play Splinterlands). 😐
  4. Do you mean reputation on Splinterlands itself, or Reputation on Hive? 🤔😏
  5. I don't think Splinterlands alone can bring us to "success". 😮

Welcome to #Hive and #Splinterlands! 🤗

Have you voted for Pizza teams Hive witness (pizza.witness)? (6/10)

Savvyplayer,

Thank you for the responses to the multitude of questions I posed.

For number one, I joined along those same lines, I kept seeing it in play to earn and thought with Covid in full swing still. Not many safe in person gatherings.

For number two, I have not been successful enough to fight anyone with Yodin or Mylor although I have seen the name and seen the card mentioned on a plethora of posts in July about the game as I backtracked. What league are you in right now? (silver, gold, diamond)

Number three, any guild action to assist you with learning more about the people who play or going lone wolf right now?

Number four, really either in game or in the hive network.

Number five, success is relative and I find sometimes after a three battle losing streak a success is just eeking out a victory in a battle :)

  1. Yes. 🤔
  2. You can rent Mylor Crowling for about 25 to 50 DEC per day. 💸 I know that's expensive, but it's worth it! 😏
  3. Guilds in Splinterlands are only for working together with people you already know (either on Hive or Discord), not typical for getting to know new people. 🤔
  4. I don't think there is a "Reputation" right within Splinterlands, because your Rating (and Power) is all that matters. 🤔 On the other hand, you can post about Splinterlands on Hive to get Reputation, upvotes, and engagement. 😏
  5. Are you referring to the "gambler's fallacy" where a series of loses increases the chance that the next one is a win (or vice versa)? 🤓😏

It isn't the most relaxing but I do play for the loot chests :)

Have you gotten any good lewt chests, Rexmillerson?

I got a Gold Harvester once. That's about as good as it has gotten. Also a couple of 2,000 DEC rewards chests have been pretty sweet too.
