Is this idea stupid:

An mmorpg like runescape, but the gold is a real cryptocurrency.

but the gold is real gold

that would be pretty cool

Yes it's really stupid because P2W in not fun except for whales. This has already been proven for WoW and Runescape.

No it's not stupid it's inevitable. In ten years we will see millionaire progamers in their teens.

Nice, just bought 100k.

I have to love that the actual use cases for crypto are so low that ideas like this come up all the time. How about instead of using a volatile decentralized currency for no reason -- being this is a completely centralized market, i.e., the game studio's world -- you just use GameCoins (TM) sold by the game studio for USD. Oh wait, thousands of games already do this.

Fishing lvls?

Many games sell you currency, few games buy it back for USD.

Do you realize that RSGP is a real cryptocurrency on Yobit and each coin can be redeemed with the company that made it for 1 mil Runescape or OSRS(at some other conversion rate) gold?

Bitcrystals you stupid fuck

What value does it add to the game? This is already a game that does this FYI. I don't think it an MMORPG like Runescape though.

But man I played the shit out of RS. Countless hours I sat in the top F2P world's (world 2? can't remember) Varrock bank scalping god armor and Easter eggs. I was 14 I dreamed about becoming a millionaire just to sit on my ass all day playing Runescape on a massive screen in my home theater.

Then Fagex wanted to play FEC and fucking banned trading and made the grand exchange. Fuck that shit.

>sell currency for usd
>buy it back for usd
No shit, no one does that. In fact, no transaction works this way. What an idiotic comparison you've drummed up. Even in OP's case this still wouldn't be happening. Instead, the game's auction house would take a portion of it.

It's quite good actually.
If the game client would work as a wallet and would calculate algorithms while the user plays.

>centralized botnet to mine currency for itself
lmfao

what abour osrs mobile then

poorfags aka most gamers would hate this. It is a cool concept though.

Having gold in your bank could be your proof of stake for mining.

dicing but with real crypto. Instead of betting against the house, u just let people bet against eachother. Taking 1% transaction costs

Look up decentraland

What the hell do you think this game you're playing is?

Technically already is

GAME WITHIN A GAME WITHIN A GAME

ILL BITE.

you get tokens for exploring the world ->think POKEMON GO style

thats retarded because spoofers will ruin it

>what is Gamecredits

This has been done before

It was called bittorrent and it got shut down by The Man.
