Q&A
Community asked: I have a zombie. Not very recognisable?
Nova: Zombies and ghosts NFT holders can expect a special gameplay, which will open up later, and they can even complete dimensional traversal. Do you know what other ancient civilization had something similar to zombies?
Community asked: What can we gain by only holding Rivermen?
Nova: It will give you universal RiverArt airdrops. This year, holders will receive RiverArt as New Year gift. RiverArt will not limited to the Song Dynasty, for the lack of historical materials will seriously limit the scope of creation.
Community asked: Two NFTs composite a new NFT, and if the first two are destroyed to form deflation, it supports the whole price. Destruction or stake is a common way to safeguard prices.
Lailai: The NFT of the scene is combined with the NFT of the two pawns, and destruction of NFT will cause to its deflation. For example, if someone bought all the NFT pawns of the long scroll, and all of them were composited into the long scroll, which leads to some holders can’t participate in. Without value, deflation is not the
Community asked: Receive points from stake.
Lailai: Receiving points from staking the NFT can be realized after the points system comes online. The councillor will call for a vote to see if the majority supports it.
Nova: We are planning this recently. Community proposals can also be collected and submitted to the Council, and official proposals will also be submitted to the Council. When the RiverArt is in circulation, it can be used as the reward for the Rivermen to stake.
Community asked: What if I don’t want props, I want land?
Nova: It will happen and it is in process. The land itself is also a usage scenario for the products, which will be implemented in the next few iterations.
Community asked: Is the land planned by Rivermen the same concept as that of SAND and MW?
Nova: No, our future land will be a separation of ownership and tenure. The house is no longer completely determined by the land, nor will it be transferred passively because of the land circulation.
Community asked: Can the composited pawns be removed from the Open Sea? Or the total number will count less?
Lailai: Take a simple example, one holder bought 10 monks, his deflation finished, and left one, then how do you composite the other nine? I think deflation in NFT needs to be debated.
Community asked: What are we gonna do? The only good platform for P2E is Gala. If you think of the creator economy platform, it’s like The Sandbox. At present, our project is of national style, retro and traditional, with a much smaller market than The Sandbox with metaverse and bolckchain. But if we’re making games, we can do a better of broadening our market with Chinese ancient style games.
Nova: I have talked about national style trend and P2E on many occasions. But if I do P2E in the creator economy, I can’t solve the problem of where consumers are coming from. In my opinion, to produce something or provide a service requires consumption. I can talk all night about developing a page game.
Community asked: Does Nova know about this week’s news of tech giants? What do you think about that?
Nova: I feel sad and sorry about this, but in my opinion, 3A is often a forced choice, representing the greatest investment, the most advanced technology, the most avant-garde art representation, but not the best design. 3A is a mature business model, which means that as long as money is continuously invested in development and marketing, almost fixed income can be obtained, but all of this is also built on a mature and strong system similar to the film industry. Without such a system, 3A equals to blind and huge risk.
Selected Community Views
@陆路（郝思嘉）：NFT is over, don’t waste efforts on NFT operation, as soon as possible to provide Rivermen metaverse, to NFT holders (early believers and supporters of Rivermen IP) airdrop Land or Token is the most beneficial for NFT price. Public praise is the best marketing. The 10,000 holders of the Rivermen NFT are the seed users of the Rivermen metaverse, and the sales money of NFT is essentially the fundraising round of Rivermen.
@单调的咖啡：Staking NFT to receive tokens has never succeed. But overall, I think it is extremely difficult to design a token economy system that can effectively avoid the death spiral. Sustainability is the soul.
@夜晚最高频道：It is OK to stake the points and exchange points for land, but the current points system is not complete, coupled with the lack of infrastructure, it needs to be considered for immediate implementation.
@guo：1. How to get points? 2. What can holders get by exchanging points? 3. Is the exchanged product valuable?
