Web3 games are said to be the future of the gaming industry. Thus, Web2 titles are gradually diving into GameFi. However, conventional titles also have many great features which blockchain ones inherit, preserve, and adapt. Let’s point them out!

Storylines

Web2 projects are widely renowned for no-cap intriguing original storylines crafted by experienced creators. They highly vary, but their main common feature is quality boosted by strong narratives with bright characters.

Even if worlds look too simple and stories too short, they tend to be involved. Web3 creators are inspired by them and refine the catchiest cliches in titles that help users to earn!

Genres

Many Web2 titles have impressive gameplays, and many enthusiasts even have their personal tops, dividing projects by genres. For instance, some people claim that Cyberpunk 2077 has the best one among first-person shooters, while Senran Kagura: Peach Beach Splash nails it among third-person shooters.

Web3 projects inherit this classification of genres, such as sports, adventures, RPG, etc. Meanwhile, GameFi introduces new ones, such as collectibles and metaverses.

Soundtracks

Web2 top games are appreciated for snatched soundtracks. For instance, experts say that Ballblazer (1985), Crypt of the NecroDancer (2015), and Doom (1993) are among the conventional titles with the best music in the gaming world. To stand the competition, Web3 titles follow their standards.

Representation

Classy gaming has always been considered a fit way to entertain oneself. So does GameFi. The only difference is that Web3 titles have a P2E model, which makes gaming rewarding.

Customization

In some Web2 games, users can customize their characters and equipment. In Web3, personalization is even better. The thing is that users can acquire assets to upgrade their experiences.

Rewards

It is not a secret that Web3 titles have revolutionized the whole gaming industry with the help of the P2E model that lets users earn by playing. However, this idea was initially designed within the Web2 community, where users of titles like Dota 2 could participate in battles to win money or trade items.

However, in conventional gaming, the focus is on the P2P model, and only esports gamers can win, while in GameFi, P2E is accessible to everyone. As for the property aspect, in Web2, in-game items still belong to the gaming companies, but in Web3, NFTs are owned by players.

Conclusion

As you see, Web3 gaming has taken the best from Web2 and made it more players-oriented. The secret is that GameFi titles tend to be crafted by true gaming lovers who know the industry from the inside and want to make it fit for everyone. Stay tuned and get convinced in it with Prom!
