Thank you again for the response @WitekRadomski

I know there's a lot of survival games out there, like H1Z1, PUBG, Dayz, they all have very similar loot systems and monetize with micro transactions, how can ENJ enhance the gameplay of these games when the Digital Assets / Items are often gone after they die or the game is over?

The only items worth anything in these games are the one's sold by the company which are mostly cosmetic, but there's no way to trade them or even if there was, there wouldn't be that much incentive in it's current state compared to CS:GO.

I think it's a challenge for some games, especially first person shooters that are really dependent on balanced game play.

I can't say that Enjin Coin is a one-size-fits-all solution for every gameplay situation. Games with very transient items like the ones you mentioned may continue to implement them as a temporary item on their servers. Where I see the benefit of Enjin Coin in those games are things like dog-tags for player kills across any server, an in-game currency, vanity items, and possibly consumables.

We are also brainstorming how best to implement no-drop items and will update the whitepaper when we've nailed that down.

What Enjin Coin does allow for is new gameplay experiences that weren't previously possible on any platform. The dog-tags system is a fun idea, and it would be fun to see decentralized "kill trophy" dog tags handed out for various types of achievements, either by partnered games and/or tournament platforms - or by unaffiliated collectives of gamers. You'd have notorious gamers wearing them as status badges which could be later adopted into various games and websites as these systems become popular.
