But do web3 games even need a token if there's ETH/SOL/etc??

What are the benefits of a game-specific token?

The only reason I can currently think of is immersion - I'd rather see WoW gold instead of ETH

Real-world money break immersion

We can talk about this during the podcast but I really think web3 games need to focus on building a game that ppl want to play and then maybe introduce a token. Too many games are focused on tokenomics first than a fun game
