you buy when you feel comfortable, if you listen to internet nerds in the channel for the token you'll likely never be satisfied. Speaking as one of those nerds.

#

Don't want to spark a debate as I think it was spoken about a lot over on X too but, imo $50 is way too much & for the first (or one of the first) to market, wanting to bridge the gap to Web2 gamers... It'll put off so many of them straight away & the rest will follow. 🤷‍♂️ But what does little old me know hey 😂

young bone

kindred badger
versed verge
#

It's a difficult one that's for sure

livid marten
#

you go into overworld though and encounter effectively random illuvials that you simply have the choice to decide if you want to capture them after beating them.. though i think you lose out on energy regardless of your decision. "You can scan i know but still we are close enough to the ball park

versed verge
#

But a stage 3 run at $50 is a Web2 headline grabber & they'll jump on it like a tonne of bricks! They already hate NFT's & think all Web3 is a scam.

You're hopefully right mate 🙏 & I'm sure you will be.

livid marten
#

Gotta find the balance between people just wanting 1 of each illuvial for collector/normalized pvp, then the iv hunters, and then the fusing for max dark holo skin and at that point iv basically as well

young bone
#

Try to find the actual talk. It says a lot more than us being debated in twitter atm.

versed verge
livid marten
#

also still expect to eventually see us try something along the lines of a season pass thing likely more focused on pvp that ends up being the big revenue generator especially mid wave when people aren't really catching illuvials as much as they wait for the end of wave rush and next batch

young bone
kindred badger
young bone
versed verge
young bone
livid marten
#

it would be awesome if every illuvial was valued at multiple dollars but realistically its better to assume that a player might be willing to spend 20-$50 to max iv and max holo a single illuvial, maybe more for the really special ones.

kindred badger
young bone
#

In the past, I've paid PlayStation plus, with ESO plus just to be able to play so I'm thinking I wouldn't mind paying $20 a week or less.

young bone
livid marten
# versed verge Like a $50 a month fuel card that gets you 10 stage 1 runs, 5 stage 2 and 2 stag...

that is one potential but unlikely, more so just your play pvp and get various rewards. I would and could add overworld but it's hard because you can't just play for free besides t0... maybe if equivalent of trainers/gym battles and or raids? get added you could do overworld focused pass, special mode too with no capturing just battling any and all illuvials to train and get better at the game has potential for that type of system

young bone
kindred badger
#

Yah thatd be rough for everyone involved

young bone
#

For sure. It's bad enough when it happens now, when I'm having an off day.

#

I'm pretty excited to see how all plays out. I think the first few months of on chain gaming will be mental, then overtime the balance will be found.

timber torrent
#

1 t3 ,1 t2 ,t1 , 2t0 just for fun

livid marten
#

but for free. point isn't on will people do it because they do/don't enjoy it, rather how can you set it up so no more money beyond money spent on the pass is consumed and you just play the game to get rewards

young bone
agile tapir
#

Yeah 50usd stage 3 runs wont happen. Im pretty sure kieran has taken a different position from then

livid marten
#

50 usd will be acceptable if US doubles money supply in the next 4 months maybe XD

timber torrent

#

Kieran always brave enough to test waters and face the waves which is good

young bone
livid marten

#

Like your idea of a pass. With that do you see runs being a set price.

timber torrent
#

look at the pices of the games on the EPic launcher for a reference

#

50 USD get you a few games outright

#

game need to prove itself first before stretching the income streams

young bone
#

Yes, so it may largely depend on what you make back vs how much you pay. I have a feeling it will change a few times. Or do people see the price of runs fluctuating?

timber torrent
#

or it will be still borne but we need to trust the Boyz ...they havent got many things wrong in da past

young bone
sage falcon
#

Just back reading for a few seconds, did someone say $50

young bone
#

Yeah

sage falcon
#

For what

young bone
sage falcon
#

A t3 run is...?

livid marten
sage falcon
#

Getting tier 3.illuvials?

young bone
sage falcon
#

I'm sure this discussion has been going on for months behind the scenes. They probably have a good reason behind it. Especially because you can burn 3 atlas to make an axon etc. just do tier 1

timber torrent
#

oh crap forgott about the order book .......lol

young bone
#

I don't see mass adoption straight away. Plus like crystal said there is most likely plenty of discussion anyway.

livid marten
#

burning not only to evolve but also to get those holos just makes me think cheap is fine, since it won't be as cheap as it sounds, hence also reference to gacha system and prices

sage falcon
#

Yeah it's definitely not something they would have done without a thousand hours of debate

young bone
timber torrent
#

sometimes the lower tier runs throw up the goods ....its just shards are need'd from another source if not from da runs........maybe an Overworld Market place 😉

#

weve all got spoilt in beta though we knew the day would come ...........but at least I have 9 lands

sage falcon
#

When were you going to tell me this

young bone
#

Yeah, we just can't keep them.

#

Yet

sage falcon
#

Hmmmmmmm

young bone
#

Playing overworld you can catch all the illuvials.

sage falcon
#

Can you catch em all

young bone
#

You knew that

young bone
sage falcon
#

I have given this game about 5 minutes thought in 2 years

young bone
#

Oh okay lol. So we catch the illuvials in the Overworld to build decks for PVP and arena

#

The illuvials will have different tiers and stats.

#

We can fuse them to make them a higher tier.
Also we can burn them to make skins ( I think that's right)
So other than the bonding curve ( they get harder to catch) there will be a decrease in supply from fusing and skin making.

#

Some will just catch too complete a collection, me, or sell , also me.

#

Then we can make augments and other things that will help illuvials and Rangers in battle.

timber torrent
#

funny thing is since the annouced they date I slowed down playing overworld cuz I know im going to get reset

lusty citrus
#

Early adopters always pay more in video games. People will pay for early access or to be the first to play a campaign. The consumer in me does not like this but ultimately if I like a game enough I will pay to be the first to experience a game.

Im good at overworld but suck at arena so it might work

But you won't know which one it was

And you will be too lazy to test

young bone
livid marten
#

High IV illuvials gonna have a real chance of making overworld profitable early on just because people will probably be willing to pay to get higher tier illuvials asap even though they don’t have a strong enough team to catch them

sage falcon
#

That's my personality

for future financial negotiations

sage falcon
#

I reckon I've got about one or 2 times more to use that, before I stop thinking it's funny

livid marten
#

Also i hope there is a wormhole augment to suck in enemy illuvials for a period and then or perhaps just immediately yeet them to random locations on the board

#

Maybe small chance to super smash bros and watch them disappear into the distance like team rocket

You can contact #❓❓〕support to look into it more, but just checking it out right now, it looks like what ever happened 25 days 1 hour ago. The person (if its not your address) started swapping all the tokens in the wallet for ETH and then transferred all the ETH out. So if thats not your address that the ETH went to I would say yeah your wallet was comprimised somehow.

My heart sinks just reading this. 3 eth is a fair chunk. I'm so sorry dude.

Hi. I asked when it was first announced that Illuvium would be launching on Epic on the 28th Nov but was told the answer wasn't know at that point. Like to ask again. Will the full game be exclusively and only accessible on Epic or will it still be downloadable from Illuvium.io. In other words is it going to be essential for a player to have an Epic account? Might seem like a trivial question but I have so many log ins and passwords these days I rather not have another one if poss.

Free To Play

Begin your adventure with a free-to-play experience that takes you to our richly detailed world, where everyone starts with equal opportunities. Immerse yourself in thrilling gameplay and grasp the fundamentals of the game. The free-to-play experience in the Tier 0 regions offers a full and engaging gameplay experience, without any limitations.

If you enjoy the free-to-play experience, you have the option to dive into the paid elements of the game and discover higher tiered regions, collecting valuable NFTs and embarking on more exciting adventures.

Please keep in mind that after the game's launch, it will be possible to list Tier 0 NFTs on the IlluviDEX to sell them for ETH. However, the value of these NFTs cannot be guaranteed as it is an open market and the price will be influenced by supply and demand factors controlled by the players.

#
Game Economy

Illuvium offers various ways to participate in the play-to-earn (P2E) economy, including the option to:

  • Sell captured Illuvials
  • Sell farmed materials
  • Sell crafted items
  • Earn a portion of the 1 Million ILV reserved for in-game rewards

Please note that while the game itself is free to play, a monetary commitment is required to fully participate in the earning aspect of the economy

Illuvium Private Beta 2 Access

We've paused the distribution of beta access codes for now. Why? Because we're gearing up for the next big update! Our next beta release on November 28th is packed with significant upgrades across the board, including the much-awaited Ascendant Arena, our new PvP Mode.

In the Meantime:
Head over to the Illuvium page on the Epic Games Store and wishlist the game: https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/illuvium-60064c. This ensures you're ready to dive into the next version as soon as it drops. Staying updated is key!

Because the game currently isn't thought for mobile at all. Building a mobile version would easily take 2-3 extra years because of how different both platforms are and the technical limitations on phone.

# twilit slate Somebody have any idea 💡 what can be bigger then a massive mainstream announcem...

I have thought about it a lot. Netflix is huge. I thought a partnership with Apple would be huge as they have been anti-crypto. So them changing their tune and choosing Illuvium would be massive. Maybe Amazon, if they partner with us to make the tv series, we could use them to distribute our merchandise as well. That would be a massive win. Too hard to speculate when all Grant wants to do is tv series and he says this news is bigger than Netflix. It's kinda of wild to think about.

Once Open Beta launches

And you would miss out on key Augments that will require you to get the overworld resources from higher cost runs
