Hi everyone, I’m today’s host and I’m excited to be part of this official Laplap AMA. Although the crypto market has entered a cold winter, institutions still favor chain games. As a member of the chain game market segment, LapLap is also full of expectations for the development prospects of chain games. Finally, Chain Games must be the application scenario that allows users to enjoy the Metaverse ecology the most. To this end, the Laplap team took 3 months to launch the Laplap 2.0 version — Laplap.pro on September 23, to connect more high-quality chain game ecosystems. In order to give you a better understanding of Laplap.pro platform services and our views and prospects for Web3.0, we will communicate with the official Laplap official Usman through “talking Laplap2.0, embracing Web3 and GameFi”.

1. Please introduce the Laplap platform in the simplest terms?

A: Laplap is an ecological Web3 game platform focusing on Publish2Earn. We guide players to participate in GameFi governance and publishing by integrating GameFi and SocialFi. In short, for players, our platform selects high-quality chain game projects through game evaluation, project research, resource integration, etc., so that players can participate in chain game gold coins better and faster, and obtain significant benefits. . For the chain game project party, we solve the problem of user traffic by matching the corresponding user players with the project party. In essence, we are a bridge between premium chain games and player groups, acting as a liaison.

2. According to official news, Laplap has been upgraded to version 2.0. Compared with the previous version, what are the highlights of Laplap 2.0 that deserve everyone’s attention?

A: There are a total of 4 highlights.

First of all, LaplapPro has added a player identity system in the latest version, which is divided into three sections: player identity recognition, different identity rights, and identity acquisition paths. Become more attractive and create a really fun P2E metaverse.

Secondly, LaplapPro has improved the GameFi game task system on the basis of the original, not only has a complete scholarship program, but also allows more high-quality players or star players to participate in the early stage of high-quality chain game projects to obtain benefits. At the same time, the official also releases [Quest Airdrop] in the game mission system from time to time to encourage more players to participate in the ecological construction of the platform.

Furthermore, in LaplapPro, we will build a growth system of Laplap Kol to give star players more rights and interests, so that more high-quality professional players can participate in the Play to earn mode of LaplapPro chain games.

Finally, in order to let platform users know the most cutting-edge chain game information and high-quality content in the industry, LaplapPro also specially added a news section, which will interpret or analyze the industry’s most popular chain game projects from a professional perspective, so as to better Capture the value of chain game projects.

In general, LaplapPro is just a brand new upgrade of Laplap 2.0, and in later versions, we will launch more platform services to meet different project parties and gamers.

3 As we all know, chain games are essentially derived from traditional games. Last year, the popularity of the chain game industry was very hot. Compared with traditional games, what kind of connection does chain games have with it, and what are the core advantages of chain games?

A: From the perspective of gameplay, the division of chain games is the same as traditional games, including MOBA, Racing, RPG, Breeding and other types, just to add financial attributes, although many chain games cannot set too complicated gameplay, more will Use mini-game mode. But recently, with the addition of many traditional game studios, the types of chain games have begun to enrich. Big Time Studios, for example, has members from companies like Epic Games, Blizzard, EA, and Riot. There is also Directive Games, the game developer of Civitas, with teams from CCP Games, LucasArts, Weta Digital, Ubisoft and Tencent.

Compared with traditional games, the unique advantage of Chain Games is that it has the blessing of the metaverse and NFT. Judging from the market response, the top chain games such as Decentraland and The Sandbox also combine these two attributes. The reason for their long life cycle is their positive circular economic model, coupled with the huge advertising value .

It is precisely this point that we are very optimistic about the chain game track, which is why we established Laplap. Although in the short term, our platform will not make any chain games, but we choose to bring together high-quality chain games and players with different chain game attributes, so as to produce the effect of mutual benefit and multi-win, and on the one hand, solve the problem of high-quality chain games On the other hand, the problem of difficulty in obtaining customer traffic in the early stage also alleviated the pain point of the industry’s “bad money drives out good money”. After all, ChainGame is essentially a game, not a Ponzi scheme.

4. When it comes to chain games, I believe that everyone is inseparable from NFT. As an equity access certificate, why can NFT be well integrated into the chain game economic model?

A: The essential difference between NFT props and traditional game props is that they belong to the players themselves. A game alone may not reflect the value of NFT, but what if it is combined with a series of games produced by a game developer? Then its value will be magnified several times. For players, purchased equipment and skins can be used across games or leased to others; for game developers, players who have purchased props are very likely to be recalled to subsequent games. This is undoubtedly the real metaverse belonging to gamers.

This is exactly what Yuga Labs did. Holding the big IP of the boring ape, they will create the use scene of the boring ape, which is subversive for the game launch process of traditional game practitioners.

The biggest difference between traditional games and chain games is the part of gold. Loyal players value the experience the most. No matter whether they spend money or not, they only want to gain pleasure from the game itself. Once the financial attribute is added, it will inevitably deteriorate the player’s pure experience. Furthermore, the threshold for chain games is extremely high, and it is necessary to understand a series of background knowledge such as blockchain wallets and NFTs, which will directly dissuade traditional players. Therefore, if traditional games and chain games want to integrate, they must make trade-offs in these aspects. .

Now, many chain games have begun to abandon the paid mint model to lower the threshold of the game, in order to reduce the difficulty of entry for players, coupled with the attention of leading VC institutions and developers on infrastructure such as cross-chain and NFT leasing , the future chain game will definitely be more suitable for the majority of ordinary players.

A considerable number of traditional game players also rely on gold to earn income, such as selling equipment, boosting, etc., and later even spawned the now hot e-sports industry. In the field of chain games, gold players have spawned chain game guilds, and e-sports elements are gradually being introduced. Before, Binance and Big Time held a live broadcast of an e-sports competition in the form of a flash book competition. A total of 16 teams signed up to participate, attracting many players to watch.

Judging from these changes, chain games and traditional games are bound to start to seize the game market and compete for gamers. And once players accept the gold setting of chain games, it is difficult to return to traditional games. This is also an important reason why traditional game developers are eager to try Lianyou.

Finally, as a side note, we Laplap will also sell our own NFTs. We will give different equity NFTs according to the level of different players. There are basic models, advanced models, and advanced versions. The attributes of each type of NFT are different. At the same time, platform users can also earn points by doing tasks, including participating in game evaluations, participating in official activities, and linking with project parties, so as to upgrade their NFTs.

It is worth mentioning that our Laplap’s NFT will be deeply tied to the economic system of all cooperative game parties on the platform, so that players only need Laplap’s NFT to play any game, not every account. All need to log in to different game accounts, which greatly reduces the operating threshold.

5. As an autonomous organization, DAO has always been highly respected by the guild for its concept of decentralization and autonomy. As a decentralized chain game service platform, has Laplap also borrowed the concept of DAO?

A: Yes, in short, Laplap is a web 3.0 organization formed by gamers and project parties in the metaverse era. Laplap takes DAO as its core principle and hopes to share the dividends of the metaverse fairly to guild members. Specifically, Laplap will build a game NFT asset economic cooperation platform to reduce player risks and improve game revenue; at the same time, through flexible airdrops and token repurchase policies, guild members will benefit.

The first phase of Laplap will be based on the Chinese-speaking communities in East and Southeast Asia, and then it will gradually expand to less developed regions including Eastern Europe and Africa to communicate with a larger-dimensional metaverse community.

On the other hand, through cooperation with the project side, Laplap hopes to help games and players resolve the Prisoner’s Dilemma, better implement the token model, prolong the life cycle of the game as much as possible, and provide better users for its next development. Base. At the same time, Laplap will also provide users with better game walkthroughs and explanation videos to help players participate in the game better and more efficiently. In the future, we will build our own IGO platform, which will be able to continuously bring high-quality gamefi projects to Laplap users, which will also bring Laplap and its members more game participation opportunities and investment opportunities.

6. What Laplap has achieved today, what will Laplap do in the face of future challenges?

A: At present, LaplapPro has reached cooperation with more than 20 well-known game developers, covering more than 150K+ players, 31.4K Twitter followers, and 280K global community users. Laplap has also entered the Laplap.pro version, and the platform functions have been improved a lot, compared with the first version.

In the future, LaplapPro will provide developers with blockchain technology to ensure content supply and solve the market demand and pain points for high-quality P2E games. In addition, LaplapPro emphasizes an “open” tone, which can provide game providers with technical support for easier adoption and more time for game content and ecological design. In addition, we focus our operations on technology research and development. LaplapPro is not just a business platform. It will develop a full set of distribution and incubation plans by integrating game asset distribution, on-chain transactions, traffic integration, etc. Tailor-made suitable service packages can greatly reduce the operating costs of chain game project parties.
