Not really,,, real gamers actually put game experience far above anything else, earning should be an additional incentive, not the main pull of the game, as you can tell from millions of gamers who still play the same games after many years.

If NFT tokens stop being so profitable on Play2earn games, will the users still continue playing the games? I guess we'll see.

It's still a mistery if once the hype ends the games will remain functional. I think a good example to be watched is Axie Infinity which seems to have lost its momentum, as there isn't a constant flux of new players anymore to keep the prices of the axies and SLP expensive.

The problem with these games is sustainability. The infinite supply of raw materials created in game are too much at some point to maintain the perfect balance between demand and supply. Furthermore, players who cheat the games through methods to automatize the gameplay (bots) are a big issue at online games in general, which totally crash games' economies, devaluing goods' values and creating excessive supply.

If play to earn games' developers where able to ban bots, the economy would become more competitive, healthy and encouraging to legit players to invest their time and money on this activity. Sadly it doesn't happen, consequently making some players suspect the platforms' managers benefit themselves somehow by the chaos promoted by the cheaters...

To me it is not a mystery,,, there will be no games left. Actually you just need to go to visit Pancakeswap or BSC lists and see how many P2E games launched since 3 months and how many are already dead.

Axie was one of the first mover so no question they have funds to develop more game stories and characters etc.

And good point about infinite supply,,, NFT supposed to be "rare". Funny right Grin
