when I worked at was to the coast we were the first to bring Pokemon into the United States we were having an in-store event we were expecting a few kids to show up but in actuality like half the mall filled up with kids this is when we knew
this was a paradigm shift in in gaming and I feel like blockchain is going to be the same blockchain gaming is gonna change gaming forever for the first time ever you actually own all the game assets that you buy so that means that if you want to play
them in another game you can if you want to sell them you can with traditional games what I am capable of doing that and is fairly limited with blockchain technology we could take that same game and allow users to do things with their items that they've never been
able to do before which allows game creators and gamers this brand new space that has never existed before imagine if you had a pokemon card but as you played the stats actually got better and no one else in the world had one just like that as an art
director designing assets that are unique for each player is very exciting Peter James Douglas and I all got to work at a game studio where we worked on games for Marvel DC Disney several of us worked at one of the top game invention studios in North America making
board games and video games I was working as a producer on Halo at 343 and I got a call from Douglas one day and we had worked together in the past on Disney and whatever other projects and I thought for sure he's gonna ask me for a job
but instead he's you know talk to me about blockchain and about blockchain gaming and he had me sold blockchain games used to have this negative connotation where there was slow and they didn't really feel like games when we first started working on blockchain games we were working in
aetherium and it was so slow and every transaction costs money and I thought well this is never gonna work they were watching his before but they were much slower and you had to pay every time you took an action and that just made it not much fun all
you could do was wind up your pieces and see what they did with the new iOS i/o blockchains you can really game you can take an action every half second you can really make decisions and it's much more engaging in fun we want Drake a ski to be
the first mass-market style mobile game on blockchain the Draco's keep dragons there's trillions of combinations each player to end up with right now we're working with some of the greatest fantasy artists in the world one thing that's interesting about this is people will have these digital assets from
all kinds of games and others can actually design whole new games that the original publishers never imagined it's a little bit like if you took mousetrap and monopoly and dumped all the pieces on the table and tried to make a new game out of it you can do
that somebody could take our dragons and then somebody else's giant robots and make some completely different game the reason there's a massive change in blockchain gaming right now is because of third generation blockchains based on iOS i/o yoson Telos give us the opportunity to make these games better
gonna change the world and now we can use unity in deus technology to make visually appealing blockchain games that might not have otherwise been possible blockchain games is gonna change the future gaming finally all the money you spent on mobile gaming is actually going to something that you
own and not just the game company regular in-app purchase and mobile games will feel like throwing away your money gamers who have strategy and trading card games are gonna love their generation blockchain gamers it'll be really awesome when we get to the point when we're talking about games
with great blockchain features and technology and not just blockchain games personally I don't think that there's a good blockchain game yet but now it's possible with ESA oh technology and I want to be the one to make it it's not just that you own and sell assets it's
that you have real investment in the games you're playing yoson tell us our block chains that allow us to make great games
