Blockchain can revolutionize gaming with transparency, security, and decentralization.

But many overlook the potential issues it can create for gamers and developers.

Let's explore these challenges and view them from their perspectives👇🧵:

1/11: Blockchain technology has created new possibilities for online gaming.

Players could potentially bring objects from other games into other games.

However, this system poses a significant risk for both the player and the developer.

2/11: One of the major problems with this system is that it is unworkable.

The blockchain technology that allows players to bring in objects from other games is new and untested, and the potential for bugs and glitches could create significant problems.

3/11: Another problem with this system is that it would be bad for the player.

The use of blockchain technology could create an imbalance in gameplay, giving an unfair advantage to players who have rare or powerful objects from other games.

4/11: Let's say you're a "whale" who comes into @Warcraft with the best and most powerful objects from other games.

This would give you an unfair advantage over other players who don't have access to those objects.

5/11: It takes away from the skill and strategy of the game and creates an unfair playing field, as you can easily overpower other players who don't have access to the same objects.

6/11: This type of imbalance would discourage many players and ultimately lead to a less enjoyable gaming experience.

7/11: The system would also be bad for the developer, who would lose control over the gameplay and could lead to a decrease in revenue.

8/11: If players can bring in objects from other games, they may not need to spend money on in-game items, leading to a decrease in revenue, which would be bad for the developer and could lead to the game's eventual demise.

9/11: It is important for developers to stick to a more traditional gaming model, which will help ensure fairness, balance, and continued success.

10/11: The use of blockchain technology to bring in objects from other games into games like World of Warcraft is unworkable and would be bad for both the player and the developer.

11/11: As a gamer, I want the best possible experience when playing my favorite games.

We need communities where gaming is exemplified via actual gamers and developers, and speculators are weeded out.
