HI!
As a major Pokemon nerd watching Presents this week, I immediately thought about the possibility of NFTs with TCG Pocket. Albeit, mine was less concern and more excitement when they used buzz phrases like experiences only available through digital means. I know we're trying to think about value outside of ownership, but I think that will still be the driver for something like a CCG. Gamers have never known true digital ownership with provable authenticity, so they don't understand it's value. The end game for web3 gaming will be driven by UX where they have no idea they're actively participating in web3. That said, I do think there are other interesting methods of utilizing open graphs. I think matchmaking as you mentioned is a great choice. Also helps break down walled gardens like Steam. I've been brainstorming a way to disincentivize "review bombing". What about the future of playtesting or early access both from a developer and a user perspective? Not everyone loves them, but they must make money; crossovers via interoperability seems like an interesting opportunity. With more web3 games following the Roblox/Fortnite/Halo Forge models you could see a world where you follow your favorite community developers across different games seamlessly. Sorry for rambling on, but I think there's a lot of potential to add value. Looking forward to being an active participant while watching the landscape evolve. 💪
