Off the Grid’s success is based on ‘best in breed technologies’

Off the Grid has remained popular, and my husband who is not a crypto enthusiast, played it.

On Empire today, Jason Yanowitz, Santiago Santos, and Gunzilla’s Theodore Agranat sat with each other. 

Some of Agranat’s answers really help explain the popularity of Off the Grid — specifically, that’s it’s not necessarily about crypto.

Instead, “it is about best of breed technologies. In this case, blockchain technologies that will enhance the user experience. It’s all about the gamer and it’s all about the gamer experience.”

It was also necessary to innovate to include the crypto elements. 

“To build up the marketplace, but we had to build our own blockchain because we didn’t find anything out there that really was up to the standards that we had … we ended up going with an Avalanche subnet that we highly customized, that we built on top of,” Agranat explained.

Off the Grid uses a storyline to help differentiate itself. In a battle royale game like Fortnite, storylines aren’t always incorporated, but — putting aside the crypto of it all— perhaps that’s also what speaks to players. 

David has tested it, but I haven’t. Although I’m not a fan of battle royale games, a good storyline is enough to convince me. 

Remember last month’s a16z State of Crypto? I looked at gaming data to see if it supports a possible boom, or if Off the Grid was alone on its island like its characters. 

Hot crypto subcategories — i.e. where everyone’s building this year — remain pretty focused: we have DeFi, blockchain infrastructure and socials at the top of the list. Gaming represents only 6.3%.

Fairly, it takes time and money to create a AAA-quality game. Off the Grid may have been the game that was needed to demonstrate the market’s interest.
