Vlog 384: Here's some Steem positivity because we earned it and because it's true.
The Steem blockchain is great! The community is great and the apps we have are far better then any other blockchain out there.
We are just not so great at telling the story.
It's bullshit and it needs to change.
Here's some positivity because we earned it and because it's true.
Enjoy.

I play EOS Knights with around 50 EOS staked.
But it is far from a smooth experience. @steemmonsters is running much smoother.
And I have much more fun ... I keep saying this everywhere .... :)
I tried playing with 2EOS staked, after maybe 6 transactions I couldn't play anymore. The most frustrating part is that my CPU is at 247% so I can't even stake anymore. Baffling design! I guess this game could only work for EOS hodlers.
Yes!
You are like trapped :)
The process I hated the most was setting up the EOS wallet(what wallet to chose, does creating that wallet cost anything, is it android compatible..), connecting it with the game, staking, not knowing how much to stake, learning about CPU, RAM, Network , getting stuck and not being able to play after few transactions.
To play this game you need to spend a lot of time to research it, and once you do all that you realize you still don't have enough EOS to play it.
After all that I can honestly say this was a very bad experience. Now I'm stuck with the game and to play it further I need to invest in EOS. At least now I know! I hope everyone can learn from this.
I got partway through that experience myself. The hostility towards the end user seemed to never end, I just wanted to play a game and couldn't do it. I'm sure I would've figured it out eventually, I'm not that tech illiterate, but it just didn't seem worth it to me. I don't know how in the world something like that could ever go mainstream with people who have no clue about blockchain to begin with.
Steem Monsters on the other hand is super simple. Pay with PayPal and most of the back end is taken care for you. You still need to figure out how to login, but it's not like it's anything difficult. You don't need to have intimate knowledge of blockchain technology to get going like with EOS.
And yet EOS is valued 2.4 billion while Steem is valued 88 million. Nothing makes sense anymore.
Yeah, I hear you. Market cap doesn't reflect reality in any way.
You should ask someone to delegate to you.

Hi exyle,
From the time I saw and listen to your advice on Dtube you have been the source of the reason for me joining Steemit. I want to thank you in maintaining a positive outlook on our cryptocurrencies in particular our Steemit dollar.
Steem can be threatened with mortality but a community that believes cannot die. There is a deeper missions and purpose.
Go and get them @exyle! Fill those FUDers hearts with positivity - it's an early Christmas gift for them!
Can't believe that it's over $1,000 (500 EOS) to play EOS Knights smoothly and it costs a couple of bucks to play Steem Monsters. If Steem Monsters were ever to evolve into a RPG strategy game or maybe some other dapp on the Steem blockchain does this then we shall see the masses roll in.... Especially from Asia lol, they are big into this type of game like League of Legends etc. Going off on a tangent there, but there should be more positivity on the applications rather than focusing on the price. 😉

I love this blockchain and all the dapps created on it. They’re amazing and they make the steem blockchain THAT much better.

Steem is the best blockchain experience available. Given the community and social approach, the journey here feels more fulfilling as it seems more real than others. When considering the way development has occurred here in many ways, our potential is limitless in my opinion!

Nice post, and positive is always good! I agree, we need to do a better job of letting people know all of the awesome things that are on Steem and are coming to Steem.
