Yeah.... this one should speak for itself. Episode 3 and we're just finally getting to a game that we can actually launch and play. I wish we couldn't. This video features my first impressions and a full review of one of the largest and most popular Metaverses, Decentraland. In 2022, the term "Metaverse" seems to be thrown around constantly, with even places like Wal-Mart and The UPS Store having shops open within the metaverse. But... what is The Metaverse? What does it look like? Can I play it today?
I hope to answer all of those questions in more, in today's episode of "Worst Crypto Game Ever?". We take a deep dive into the $1B crypto metaverse of Decentraland and review it from the perspective of a gamer. Gamers are known to be a rather picky bunch, especially when it comes to games that include trendy things like Crypto and NFTs, so it's no surprise that there has been a ton of controversy surrounding Decentraland so far.
But with the game's poor performance, confusing interface, and overall poor gameplay, Decentraland stands in 2022 as more of a black sheep in the metaverse industry, with player counts hardly reaching over 200 on even the busiest days. How much longer will Decentraland be around, and will the players ever manage to sell the land that they purchased in 2021, hoping to double their money?
With players still trying to sell land at minimum prices over $1000, there is little volume in this Metaverse's economy, since it is very rare for new people to buy into Decentraland. Additionally, all of the initial plots sold out in the first 30 seconds of the game's first launch, so the land market is completely controlled by the players at this point. The result is the current state of Decentraland, a game with a stagnant economy, a declining playercount, and an overall embarrassing presentation. Buckle up, and enjoy the ride.

@@elitereptilian200You don't have to buy a mining GPU to get a good deal. Since most people don't give a shit what a card was used for, people with gaming cards have to price match to actually sell their card. and Actually Mining GPUs are usually in better condition. The most obvious reason is that miners literally have a financial incentive to keep them in good shape. So they do. The next reason is that they have probably been running in more ideal conditions than gaming GPUs. Most people use cases with shitty airflow, and stock voltage which is bad for a card. where as with mining setups, they are usually ran out in the open with tons of box fans circulating air in a climate controlled room to keep them cooler, and they are undervolted to maximize performance and lifespan. And the last major, and most important reason is that being under load is better for the GPUs longevity itself. While being on all the time can be bad for the bearing in the fans, that is a relatively easy fix if they do fail. But a GPU gets worn down much in the same way a spring or a battery does. It's the being on load and off of load over and over that does the damage, not just being under load. There is an unwarranted stigma around mining GPUs, when you can get crazy good deals on them if you are willing to just crack them open and reapply thermal paste as that's the most repairing they usually need.

@Frommerman 7 месяцев назад

A Tribune of the Plebs would actually massively improve this due to one of the unofficial, but historically verifiable, powers of "the crowd" in Roman politics. If a large crowd of commoners (Plebians) assembled outside the home of an important political figure, broke in, and ripped him limb from limb, the Roman state did nothing. No investigations of instigators (unless the crowd was suspected to have been created by a fellow Patrician). No executions of random members of the crowd to "send a message." They just let it happen and let everyone off. They did this because they figured anyone who got enough people angry at him to form a mob, overwhelm any posted guards on his villa, and kill him, had probably done something to deserve it. Worse, he had done it in a way which was visible to the Plebians. The mob was basically seen as the magistrate in a case against him, with a lawful sentence of death for the finding of guilt. This would massively improve the Decentraland experience. If a 75% vote of all users (for instance, numbers could be changed) could "execute" a massive whale, forcing them to return all their assets and blocking their wallet from the site permanently, their activities would be more constrained and they would need to vote in ways that most of the community didn't hate.

The way plots are given out, how they can be blocked off, even people's attempts to create actual games using a horribly ill-fitting engine and having to brute force a bunch of stuff with the base engine's barebones features.

@marquisoflabyrinths 4 месяца назад

Wow! I love how this game is so "decentralized" they don't explain anything so you won't have a centralized way to know what to do at all!

@fy8798 9 месяцев назад

Decentraland was already by necessity going to be garbage. The very idea that land ownership is a thing and that the land is the real estate of the game means that every game blocks every other game, gives hard limits to each game's size, so even if Decentraland devs were competent (which they are not, they're less competent than first time solo devs on steam) these limits alone would make good games impossible. Even the games that utilize teleporters for their maps are hilariously awful. The very visible box they're in gives the whole "game" less of an immersion factor than a cheap ride at a local fair, and the area limits for the portals constrain them to the point of uselessness. You cannot make anything good in something like this, even if you wanted to put effort in. And then the "you need X nft to play" on top for some of them.

@williamdrum9899 4 месяца назад

Oh, so the size of the map is based on how much digital land you own? Oh that is bad.

There are two obvious metrics one could use to define a company's success: Does it provide a valuable good/service to people that improves the human condition; 2) gibe money. It would be great if any of these projects cared about the first definition at all.

@GalaxiaStars 8 месяцев назад

I feel like the reason there's almost no gameplay is because this was yet another nft culture rugpull scam lol

@BobRobinson Год назад

Don't forget the sandbox it's just as bad and overhyped I'm building a Game and I'm just a roofer who taught myself to code and its far better than the crap games released that I have seen and I'm doing it with zero budget after work .they forgot the main part to a game fun

@jauwn Год назад

I actually have a review of that game on my channel! You’re right, it’s absolutely horrible.

Wow, it crashed when it ran out of memory. And even says that one solution is to compile it with a bigger memory cap. The memory cap shown is 2 GiB - 4.25 MiB. It simply ran out of the non-LAA memory limit for 32 bit processes.

I know this video is old at this point - but i have to point it out. The cryptobros can only make money when new players join. You, as a new player, asked a group of cryptobros how to start playing. Their answer is "go figure it out on the discord, i aint helping."

@battlion507 10 месяцев назад

Hey, Decentraland, I remember that "game". Folding Ideas called it: A Dead Mall. Yeah, the game sucks, the administration sucks and to tie it with the crypto/nft phase just makes it unappealing.

@DanielDroegeShow Год назад

Wemade has you verify a qr code from your mobile device linked to your account to prevent someone from hacking it. Not sure how hard it is to bypass something like that though.

@andreasottohansen7338 8 месяцев назад

22:47 God, who made that? that is a terrible representation of currency use! The canadian and american dollar aren't interchangable, same goes for the Danish, Swedish, Norwegian, or islandic crown. They might as well be Euros and rubles for how different they are.

@jauwn 8 месяцев назад

It's a map based on the origin of the word used for that areas currency. Now does it make sense in relation to my video, no, but it was the first google result and I guess I was lazy 🤣

Bruh they literally just took random Synty character assets and threw them next to other styled assets. (Also the performance was probably affected by playing in browser)

looks a bit like ai TBH. wouldnt be surprised

@robertwildschwein7207 9 месяцев назад

The one in the big picture clearly has relaxos face. The one on the right is slightly edited Emolga. I am pretty sure, the second one from the right uses Evees body and face. While I can't quite put the finger on it, the other three seem suspiciously familiar too. +They look VERY frankensteined to me.

21:38 - I maybe misunderstanding something here, but.. How is this definition of "interoperability" not the opposite of "non-fungible"? Oh, also.. Video Is Good!
