Farmville creator defends game beta releases, and crypto game rewards are not a “crucial” component according to Sam Saliba: Web3 Gamer
It can be frustrating to see your favorite blockchain game being released in stages when you just want the finished product. But according to Mahajan, the creator of hit games like Farmville and Pirate Nation, its worth it in the end because it leads to a much better game.
I actually like this whole build in public, always evolving the game. Its like release and iterate, Mahajan tells Cointelegraph.
He explains that while it might feel like a tease for gamers and a cheap tactic to generate more excitement, its incredibly helpful for the developers.
