Is there another wave for Adventure Island?

Since the service opened on May 12, Adventure Island has attracted a large number of players. According to the official announcement, the daily trading volume exceeded 150,000 transactions during the initial activities of the game, peaking at 846,414 transactions.

On the day of the server launch, there were more players in the beginner village than monsters, and the currency price surged to $3.50 due to FOMO. Now, a week later, the currency price has dropped below $1.85, nearly halving from its peak.

So how is the gold farming efficiency now? Are there still so many people playing?

I have roughly organized some situations for your reference:

1. Currently, apart from the old players who came from the internal test without data wipe, new players are still striving to level up (average level 110). Before level 70, there is basically no gold to farm. Even current full-level veteran players find the gold farming returns somewhat underwhelming compared to the past GameFi champions.

The current gold farming mechanism in Adventure Island: High levels (above 70 can farm) can fight bosses (the equipment dropped by bosses is unstable; the higher the level of the boss, the higher the value of the dropped equipment).

Neso dropped from monsters: nxpc exchange rate is 100,000:1 (approximately 4 per day for 24 hours of earnings).

At higher levels, after defeating a boss, players can participate in a lottery, and the chance of winning is related to their level; the higher the level, the higher the value of the equipment dropped, ranging from $4 to over a thousand dollars.

However, the probability of winning below level 125 is very low; after so many days of playing, I haven't earned a single penny, all relying on expectations to hold on 🤣🤣🤣

2. New players can play without spending money; it seems that spending or not spending has not made a significant difference yet.

3. The game feels more like a Web2 game rather than a game specifically designed for Web3 like Big Time; the mechanisms resemble traditional game developers with a bit of Web3 elements added, and the mechanism is not considered a Ponzi.

Of course, we should also see some possibilities:

The game's mechanisms can be changed; for example, today's announcement from Adventure Island is about changing the algorithm, and who knows when they might finally come up with something lucrative.

Most players who continue grinding are betting on the potential big returns after the Reactor starts and the mechanisms are optimized.

Now that gold farming returns are poor, it might actually be a good thing for newcomers, because if the earnings of old accounts were good right now, the competition for newcomers would be even fiercer, and the selling pressure would also increase.

So, will you bet on $NXPC?
