Games on Hive help in onboarding and retention

in #hive-16792210 months ago

Onboarding people to Hive has always been one of the most difficult things. But after onboarding, making them stay is the next most difficult task. When people join Hive and try to understand all the concepts, they initially start very well but later they slowly lose interest after they see the way rewards are distributed here. Some people find it hard to socialize and that could be one of the biggest reasons why they came to Hive leaving other social media platforms. But if they don't get any value on Hive, they usually leave Hive.

In the last 7 years, this blockchain has seen many people coming and going; if we take a look, many people have left this place. They either get busy in their real life or find another proper use for their time. There are still people who are sticking on and trying to find a common ground and those people find a good spot for them and continue their journey for years. User retention is one of the biggest things we need on Hive right now. Onboarding is the first problem but there is no point if, after onboarding, people leave.

Help from games

It is found that gaming on Hive is one sweet spot for people who are not very good at writing. Some people despite their bad writing skills, continue to write here and earn some money but most of the people look for different avenues we have on Hive. To get rewards from writing, quality, and quantity both are important with consistency. For people who don't have these, it can be a little hard. But the world doesn't end there, People can always play the game and continue their journey on Hive.

Hive games are getting very popular recently and many project owners are working on their own new game. For the available games in the Beta launch, many people have already started exploring games on Hive and can invest their money and get the fun they want. There is no need for such people to write any blogs because blogging is not always the only source of income for people. Gaming can be one good example because if our friends say that they are bored with writing and if their revenue is not very good with writing, they can still stay active and switch to being a gamer.

I know a few people who make a living with gaming income alone on Hive. They would have invested a lot of time playing the games and sometimes would have even spent a lot of money. But gradually it comes a comfortable active income or a passive income where the users will not have to do anything.

Need more games to onboard more people

Some of the biggest games on Hive have indeed brought us many users to Hive. One of the biggest actors here doing this is Splinterlands. They can onboard a lot of people by talking about their game. One of the biggest advantages of gaming is that it is not only fun to play games but most of these games are all Play2Earn. That's what makes it attractive. Let's hope we have more working games on Hive.

Right now the prices are low so people are not getting that much profit from renting things out but it is a good thing that in the future people will be able to earn this way too and this is the way of renting here. This is very good and new users are going to benefit a lot in the future.

Rental income is also a bit decent but yeah not as great as playing though.

Yeah you are right.

I’ve not joined any Hive game yet and that’s because I don’t have enough time to play it
I’d begin soon

Hive games are not something to miss. Should definitely try a few game.

Games are indeed a force, when it comes to adoption. Personally I was brought by Splinterlands. I still feel people have a huge role to play because a person eventually falls in love with the community provided they hold on and take time to research.

Very nice. Many people were onboarded through Splinterlands and then they slowly start blogging too.

I believe this is the best time for people to get on hive as they can still be early adopters before it is too late

You are right. Many people will come and go. We need to create mechanisms that will actually retain people over here and keep them staying no matter what

Yeah only a few people stick around for a longer period of time.

Sahe kaha apne, ye ek accha rasta hai logo ko yaha lane ka par aj kal bahut Kam he hote hai jin logo ko ese games pasand aate hai. 😅. Let's hope for the best 🤞🙏

Yeah let's hope. 🙂
