This isn't ragebait, clickbait or a joke. I genuinely want to have a meaningful discussion. Web3 gaming is in a really tough spot right now, and I want to keep believing in it and pushing it forward. But man, it's been ages since I've made money while actually having fun. "But what about Cambria Gold Rush?" I spent 7 days creating content, playing 8 hours a day and genuinely having fun. But I didn't make any money because I didn't reach a specific milestone. I'm not saying Cambria is bad. It's not. But it's been a while since a Web3 game has made me genuinely invested in its economy and excited to build alongside its community. Most things I've engaged with have either gone nowhere or ended in disappointment. A lot of people ask me if I'm going to mint X or invest in Y, and honestly, I don't want to. Not because they're necessarily bad investments. Some are already established enough that they could still do a solid 2x or 3x. I just want something new to believe in. Something I can discover early, get invested in, push alongside the community and watch grow. I don't want to keep jumping into things that are already at the top. I want to help build something that gets there. I'll most likely be playing Cambria when it launches. It's still my favorite Web3 game and, quite literally, the most fun I've had playing any Web3 game. This isn't a criticism of Cambria. I just wanted to share what's been on my mind lately. I'd genuinely love to hear your thoughts. Where is Web3 gaming heading? What needs to change? Are there games or ecosystems right now that have given you a reason to believe again? PS: I don't give a fuck if your entire argument is that "Web3 gaming is dead." Give me reasons. Give me data. Explain what went wrong and why. I'm looking for actual discussion, not people hating for the sake of hating.
