It has been a privilege having members from the Loot NFT project or Lootverse on the Medallion XLN podcast to talk about emergent / collaborative art. Standard Combo is the third Lootverse related guest to be on the podcast, he joins Banners (for Adventurers) and The C. What makes me particularly excited about this conversation is that Standard Combo has been a game developer since 2004. He is working on a Loot related Massively Multiplayer Online (MMO) game called LootMMO. We talk about the difference between building a gaming experience in Web3 versus building a traditional game. We do a deep dive into gameplay mechanics and dive into real world techniques for scaling a game. Furthermore, we debate, “what a metaverse is”, and he shares techniques on monetizing video games. We discuss the role of AI generated art in video games and the advantages of Midjourney Vs. DALL-E 2. Standard Combo also does a live demonstration of the LootMMO and how it integrates Crypts and Caverns, as well as other Lootverse projects. I think what intrigues me about the Loot NFT project is it exist as art as a living organism. Sounds like a weird thing to say, I know, but just the way it evolves over time into this self-sustaining world is very interesting to watch. This was a great conversation, I encourage everyone to watch and share on their social medias.
The Loot project is having a hackathon. The promotion happens at the end of the podcast, but Standard Combo is teaching people how to build their own metaverses, which then leads into the Loot verse hackathon. Follow the instructions on the flyer to participate. Leave a comment below if you liked the podcast. Did you learn anything new from this conversation? I definitely did!
