Gaming Industry also benefits from block chain technology since there a lot of valuable data needed within a game it's clearly safer and more secured. Gaming Industry in blockchain also benefits in every transactions made in the gaming ecosystem.
It's not so easy as you said consider about the fact that the blockchain system used the peer to peer distributed ledger system but only a dapps that can adopt it right now.
It's a bit difficult to imagine about what will be used by this game. Decentralized thing looks a bit difficult to be implemented on the game
He was right and also he was wrong.
he was right about Gaming industry but he was wrong about its usability.
just like what you said, right now those gaming industries are using dapps to incentivize their players, sponsors and else. The blockchain is used as a form of payment for them to operate their game, and actually, it has been used as a kind of payment in some store too.
like Steam? Microsoft? and others.
As far as I know those blockchain projects which are connected with Gaming industry, let's say Mobilego for example, they are not only focused now on implementing crypto payments by all means but also we might be seeing deeper attempts to connect both blockchain and gaming such as tournaments being paid for with crypto as a ticket for professional players etc., such benefits as "mining" some alts in a background mode if you are having decent PC specs etc. I mean most likely they are starting to think deeper now than "another payment method" or something.
