I'm absolutely stunned that valve could make such a collosal blunder. There will be cases studies done on this decision. "How Valve lost the video game platform war".
Blockchain games, from my limited and recent knowledge, come in a limited variety of shapes and sizes. Personally, I pigeonhole them alongside gambling software etc. Core concept: Spend money to make money, playing games, right?
Epic Games Launcher MAY very well be the gaming platform, on PC, with the largest child audience (I have neither the numbers for this or the evidence. Purely using the, admittedly flawed, logic that Fortnite uses the platform). So let's pretend for just a moment I'm not making wild assumptions.
How would this affect those children using the platform, giving them possible access to blockchain games? Okay, parental guidance and restrictions will play a part, but we all know that doesn't stop it entirely.
Is it the right move, considering the nature of these blockchain games, to be included on this platform?
I really don't think so.
lol as you become more familiar with blockchains and crypto things wont seems so shady and suspecious.
remeber the internet was only for criminals and porn.
That's oddly dismissive of what, I feel, is a legitimate concern. Steam, the largest gaming platform on PC, has outright blocked cryptocurrency and NFT games.
Do you feel the concern is unwarranted? Steam are a big company and I doubt they'd be in the business of turning away legitimate means of making money if there weren't any massive concerns about the practice?
Realistically, it's going to be quite a while before we have the full launch of a crypto-game that isn't the sort of shovelware that Steam commonly offers and Epic doesn't. If a few years from now, an AAA game from an established, reputable game developer launches and allows players to trade in-game items akin to Diablo III's RMT, but this time using blockchain under the hood, why shouldn't Epic sell that game? Steam would probably sell it, too, if given the chance.
Until the launch of a blockchain game where the game part of the game is a bigger focus than the blockchain part, Epic's stance on whether or not they would host a type of game that doesn't exist is irrelevant. Steam's stance is immediately relevant, as they already host a lot no-budget games made by a single person in his free time.

Yes I do.
I was dismissed most of what was said because stated you look at blockchain games as gambling software. I rember having the same feelings about bitcoin and crypto in general back in 2017. Those feelings came from strange places and were founded in 0 understanding.
I remeber feeling good when I was sitting at my computer and heard the news that bitcoin crashed for 18k to under 8k. I laughed and said to myself I knew it was a scam. Your feelings are ok, it's good to be skeptical. Now go learn.
I look at blockchain games the same way I look at mmorpgs and mmos. I look for every single thing I look for in the former and ask myself does the latter hae it. At this point the mmorpgs do not, there are some in production that will though. The mmos are getting much closer.

I love the way they talk about "age rated by an appropriate group", as if in this day and age kids are not finding ways to play any game they please and that's on Epic, Steam, wherever.
Hustler used to say age restricted as well.. like kids didn't get their hands on nudie mags.

Egotism is the anesthetic that dullens the pain of stupidity, this is why when I try to beat my head against the stupidity of other people, I only hurt myself.
All seems to be a whole lot of nonsense about nothing.
The world still does not know how to deal with crypto, let alone adding it to gaming.
All it would take is a few countries to go after crypto's hard and ban them, to gen up enough controversy to keep people away.
Some people will make a killing, others will lose everything. Same thing for game companies. Not only are they taking a risk that people will play their games, they are adding on top, the uncertainty of blockchain too.
And yes, this is a huge gamble in every sense. We are talking about little 1's and 0's trying to be the same as gold silver or other countries currency's. That is a big bet when the majority of them are used by the more shady side of avoiding what all the countries live on...TAXES, and CONTROL.
Hard to believe that those same countries will allow this to continue for long before they start laying their bureaucracies on it. Which could make it all crash or maybe limp along....hence the huge gamble.
The future of gaming is crazy enough, add on blockchain and crypto, and might as well use one of those shake up 8 ball toys to see what is gonna happen.
I am leaning on Steams side so far, wait and see before taking the plunge. A no now does not mean no forever.
I personally don't. A lot here do based on my Zed Run thread.
I see the game as a sport, e-sport yeah kind of, more so a "real life" (metaverse) sport. I train, race and breed them. Stable Simulator maybe lol idk, fun to me.
I look at gambling like going to a track and betting a parlay . You can't bet on these horses only enter them in races.
You do have the ability to try and play a numbers game I think just buy horses in mass and spam races, but idk how that would turn out probably not well.

I'm absolutely stunned that valve could make such a collosal blunder. There will be cases studies done on this decision. "How Valve lost the video game platform war".
Valve is covering their ass - crypto laws are still being written all around the world, some very restrictive, some more open. Why would Valve want to get stuck in that mess when there are so few games that use crypto?
My guess is that it would cost Valve more in lawyers fees than they would earn from sales commission on crypto games.
Plus, nothing to say that Valve can't change their mind in the future, once the new laws are clear.
As for whether it is a collosal blunder?
Lol, no. Not a blunder at all, quite sensible really, and certainly not collosal. Gamers don't give a shit about the technology behind the games, they just want something fun to play. Blockchain technology, so far, offers absolutely nothing when it comes to gameplay, its just an alternative database structure.
The games that use blockchain tech, but no crpyto, will undoubtedly be allowed on Steam. The ones that use crypto will only ever appeal to a very small niche, so valve isn't gonna lose out on much. Nearly all gamers play games to have fun, very few care about making money when they game. There may come a time in the future where that changes, and we can have games that are both very fun and you can make money. but, we're not there yet, not even close.
I love the way they talk about "age rated by an appropriate group", as if in this day and age kids are not finding ways to play any game they please and that's on Epic, Steam, wherever.
Hustler used to say age restricted as well.. like kids didn't get their hands on nudie mags.
Sometimes you gotta say it, because the law says, you gotta say it.
Sure, but I would suggest it is easier to get games which are rated at a higher age group today than it was getting the top shelf mags back in the day.
Naw, when I was 14 I used to pick up my nudie mags from the same store which sold me cigarettes.

Great article, and yes Etherium has strong backers in the finance industry for several reasons while Bitcoin, not so much.
"He was asked whether he was “still in the Jamie Dimon’s category of ‘bitcoin is worthless'” or whether he saw value in the cryptocurrency. Dimon, the CEO of global investment bank JPMorgan, said earlier this week: “I personally think that bitcoin is worthless.” He also questioned the limited supply of the cryptocurrency."

When valve figures out how to get their cut the games will be allowed again.
I think it'll be more like when someone who actually matters to Valve makes a NFT game then they'll allow it. Valve likely doesn't want to be the giant corporation that has to worry about small indie teams using new kind of payment system. When someone like Electronic Arts wants to use new kinds of payments it could be different story.
