Personally, @splinterlands @yabapmatt I hope this proposal does not get approved because I believe Splinterlands deserves better.
Actions Speak Louder than Words
Hive has shown over the years that they have not taken the necessary steps to market, promote, and incentivize the developer community to build on its blockchain. Unfortunately, the writing is already on the wall.
Go Where Your Valued
There are much bigger players out there spending REAL MONEY to fight to become one of the top blockchains in the space. As Splinterlands has yet to launch their validators to fully decentralize their game, this is a perfect time to migrate the Splinterlands ecosystem to another blockchain that better values your community and their own blockchains growth.
There Are Better Alternatives
Although HIVE may be better from a technical perspective, that often never results in a project becoming the winner. User experience and marketing trumps technical capabilities every time. Splinterlands is a game targeting mass adoption, and to effectively do that, the game needs to easily onboard non-crypto users via various methods such as account abstraction, greater Web3 accessibility, scalability, and mobile-first user experiences. Solana, Base, and even Polygon are focusing their efforts to meet these needs for their users and developers.
Upvoted, because I don't like it if users get downvoted just because of having different opinions.
Enjoy paying a tx fee for every move in the game.
Or they could just finally ditch the promises of decentralization, not having validators after 6 years is unacceptable, why even keep pretending. Just run the game on their own servers too.
