# Existing problems Up to now, we have researched many pain points in the GameFi industry, directly related to 3 stakeholders. ## **1. For Real Players** * Players have to pay high "entry fee" which also makes it difficult for new players to enter the game if they do not have a strong financial base or any strategies to gain breakeven * Gameplay is geared more towards earning than making it fun, which makes it a poor experience for every player. * Only a few game studios offer multi-devices when launching. * The high gas fee rate in blockchain games is a burden on the players. * Once added to the staking pool, players cannot use their staked tokens or NFTs for in-game tasks. * In the game ecosystem, there are fewer tasks to enjoy, less utilities for tokens & NFTs. ![](/files/RAoSl0ctO9902MwMYkzN) ## 2. For Crypto Investors (Individuals) * Investors get a lower and shorter return on investment with ponzi gamefi models * Crypto markets fluctuate in general: every sector goes through a winter period * Several big gamefi names have come down as Axie Infinity and Step N, losing investors' trust in the industry * Gamefi projects have an average lifespan of 2 weeks to 1 month, which poses risks to investors. ## 3. For Game Publishers * High competitive rate for fun gameplay/ product development * Tokens and NFTs are unfamiliar to traditional gamers. It is a complicated technology for most of them. * Platform restriction as on Apple store and Google Play store for featuring crypto/NFT project * Inflation of tokens and NFTs can lead to a decrease in the game economy and its collapse. When the crisis peaks, users leave the game quickly. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
