Great article, imperfectly reminds me of the Great Recession / Dave and Busters episode of IASIP https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PS691lJzW1E

Nice article. I am bullish on Play2Earn games but nice to read another perspective.

"all these games are very underdeveloped and frankly very boring"

Overtime better and better games will be built. I remember the first mobile games being very basic and kind of lame but now mobile games are much better (and a $90B industry).

"...because their entire business model relies on them being the only supplier Robux"

Yes, they make more profit by being the only one selling Robux. Players don't benefit from this, only the business.

"It’s also against T+Cs so users can face getting banned if caught"

Yup. If I buy an NFT I own it and can do whatever I want with it. I don't want a business telling me what I can and can't do with items that I paid for.

Keep in mind majority of players don't spend money in game. Overtime if the average player can play game A and make $0 from playing and own absolutely nothing in game or play a very similar game B and make $$ from playing and actually own the items they collect in game, what option will they choose?
