RE: SPS Governance Proposal - Hire @cryptomancer to Develop the Secret of Praetoria Land Expansion UPDATED

in #spsproposal3 days ago

Thanks Pardinus, I'm trying to come from a genuine heart and place and not one that is trying to throw mud at anyone person or decision. I've had my time to be frustrated. Man I love this game, I met some amazing people through it. I think this game has an unbelievably resilient community and I think the game itself has riddiculously untapped potential. And yet I am sad. Not because my bags aren't pumped. I mean I'm still here with $1000s in assets, but I have nothing to play for I can't get just staking. So that is what I do. I sit and stake and wait, wanting to play but unwilling to risk more $ because I don't have anything I stand to gain from it, be it a free pack and random DEC or SPS drop or even if it's a crappy 1 cent common. It's what drew me to spending 10sk on this game in the beginning.

I was never 'making' bank buying 1000+ Chaos packs or Rift or Dice packs I bought in the beginning, but I was earning tangible assets no matter how cheap in value they were. There was always the rush of getting lucky and getting a good drop every few seasons and then that rush made me want to buy more so I could increase my chances. So I spent more, knowing I was never actually making back what I spent but paying for that 'thrill' via exciting battle. With those things gone from the game and replaced with things that were less desireable, the idea of battling leaves me empty.

Sure there was the hope that so long as this thrill was activated, eventually my earlier assets might begin to work for me in a net positive way that is envisioned in NFT Crypto Gaming. That is the goal of making limited NFT's after all in the first place. And like it or not that is the idea of crypto gaming most crypto enthusiats take some comfort in.

When we shatter that hope and thrill, we lose players in this space no matter how much we try to say this should not be the goal of the individual. It's a incentive thing. It's a sentiment thing. Without positive approach to those 2, you get to where we are today. Just wish others could see that.

I completely understand and feel the same. It's not the "devaluation of investment", it's seeing bad decisions after bad decisions, and making the game less and less appealing; and it's frustrating to see that time after time it seems the obvious is being overlooked, and the why is not something I understand fully. Oh well, crossing fingers for better days (and decisions).
