he woke up fresh it's early in the a.m let's go what's good what's good what's good what's good
doing good man doing good it's uh it's a beautiful morning you know actually something funny happened
this morning right nelly gave arty to me to watch her. Cause you know, she was like, yo, I gotta make breakfast and coffee and all that.
This girl was on the bed, right?
And she's starting to learn how to launch herself and crawl.
Oh, she's moving.
Bro, she launched herself out the bed.
Like straight to the ground.
No, we're acting, bro.
She said, I'm ready.
I'm ready, Dad. I'm a walk. All right, all right. No, we're acting, bro. Yeah. She said, I'm ready. I'm ready, Dad.
I'm a walk.
All right.
All right.
But same way.
She's probably acting.
She's trying to get on the computer, bro.
She'd be...
Maybe when we was early days and she was loving watching you play video games.
And it was like, I don't know if this is good, though, because she was like...
She was locked in, bro.
She was like...
You stared at the screen, bro. Yeah. bro. She was like, staring at the screen.
But we're going to have a good conversation today.
Fableborn is,
We're going to, we're going to intro.
We got Tcaf in the building,
but first and foremost,
my brother from Nova,
you lot know him as Tito.
He's in the building.
As you know, Mr. Stark.
Look at him.
The almost number one player in Axie.
Oh, no, don't remind me.
It's okay.
I have 10 days and then I try again.
It was close.
It was close.
So final eras for you?
You going to be in there?
Of course, man.
I'm just dropping up a bit so that they forget that jinx is a thing
because if you if you if you're at their heel the whole time then they're they you know they
they get used to playing against you they prep against you i'm just dropping off the radar a
bit and then they're like ha we knew we could beat jinx all along and then bam i'll get them over the
last three days yeah yeah it was a surprise actually because there wasn't that many jinx
comps out there we'll have a conversation about it later on uh but here is our guest today bro i you know what big shout out to tcaf because he's
been you know he's been holding it down over the last week he got us access to play the playtest
it was fun we're gonna look at some of the gameplay as well but without further ado welcome
mr tcaf in a building representing fableborn let's go yo what's up guys can you guys hear me all right
sounding good sounding great bro great i'm on the the shitty webcam mike this morning
um but yo great to be here thanks for inviting me guys and i'm cracking up you probably can see me
like in the in the whatever it's called in the waiting room like just cracking up
it's funny you go to these so i just met up. It's funny, you go to these, so I just met Logic at GDC.
And you go to these events,
you never know what people are gonna look like
or be like in real life.
And then you meet someone like Logic
and I'm just like, wow, he's great.
Great dude.
You're a health degenerate,
the users of this space are.
And then you find out that they have kids
and I'm like, oh, dude,
this world might be fucked, bro.
Yep, yep, yep.
I'll tell you what, I'll tell you what.
We got a kid, man.
You never say that, GDC.
You know, I'm sad, though, because I was supposed to be there.
Me and Logic actually went out to GDC together the year before
and we were planning to make this GDC, but oh my God, the way the market looked,
it was not happening for me.
That San Francisco flight from the UK is no joke, ladies and gentlemen, let me tell you.
Yeah, it's a long one, a pricey one.
Yeah, I mean, we'll talk about it.
We'll open up conversation and, you know, get some of your perspective on it.
I think it's always good to meet
people in the space
and find out more about them
the show is not just about
oh let's talk about
and we follow this rigid structure
like let's have a cool conversation
and get to it
I want to say
shout out to everyone
that's in the chat
Inspector Mindblown
Proof of Travis the legend
he's calling Stark a legend
yeah it's just we are no Trav Trav He's calling Stark a legend, but yeah,
he's just a, he's just a
yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
A shout out to Kali as well. Kali's in here.
Logic just decided to disappear,
but we'll bring him back
whenever he's ready.
Bro, he went, he turned into his
PFP real quick.
You just traded the top spot to start so now
As you guys know uh tcaf here representing fableborn. I think we will start on that like conversation, you know
we'll start on that like conversation you know the play test all i've seen is all i've seen is good
the play test all i've seen is
reviews like people have enjoyed um the game itself there was additional um game modes and
characters as well so i guess like from your perspective tcaf like what was the playtest
test what was added um and and yeah like how was the feedback from from the actual playtest itself yeah so we took a little
bit of a of a different approach this time so basically like basically we haven't had playtests
between seasons before this time we did between s3 and the impending s4 because uh the features
uh were a lot more intense upgrades so essentially the, the biggest new thing was Ability Tomes.
And so this is a feature where as you upgrade heroes,
you can unlock new abilities,
and you can actually swap them in between heroes.
So it just provides a whole new layer of strategy of of metagame uh basically you're customizing
it here a loadout right and this will all start to play into the future equipment system and all
that good stuff so there's just going to be a lot more strategy than oh i want to pick glint or i
want to pick rift or whoever it is it's what what build are you making with those heroes too and
this was the first step of that so before we go live to hundreds of thousands of players we wanted
to test it with a nice small cohort um and then this is a new room that's on the screen right now
so there's new environments as well i was gonna be like wait don't go back and then i realized this is a recording um this is this is another uh new room so some of the environments are much bigger um so bigger
environments uh could have different impact on devices so we're testing that out right here this
guy with the two axes he's a new uh enemy so there's three new enemy units that guy the transformer
uh enemies so there's three new enemy units that guy the transformer the enchantress and the
sorceress who was i think the fan favorite she's she almost plays like a boss she's she's fun very
very difficult um but yeah so there was a lot of changes then like you know some smaller things
too like as you can see when the enemies spawn in uh there's now indicators of where they're coming from
um it's funny that was like a big request from people and now some people are backtracking on
it they're like wait i kind of liked it without it now so yeah give me the surprise yeah exactly
so yeah lots lots went into this and as you said the the test was was really really successful
yeah i mean talking about the test we have some some data
points here like i i personally you know watching the game and seeing how it performs like have been
really impressed and the fun fact here is we've actually hosted cam twice now um i think earlier
in 2024 well back in the 2024 and then earlier in the year um and cam is like super impressive as a founder the the understanding
like that he has and of course with pixie on um and beyond they've built products man so I've got
no doubt that like you guys know what you're doing when it comes to to building a game experience
um but he just he just seemed like really in tune especially like with the cross-pollination of this whole crypto
and the game itself and i actually played favor born for the first time i think it was
it was summer like august of like 2023 it may have been yeah it wouldn't have been
supposed to so like the first iteration of my world was when i was yeah when i was playing it and like
to see where that was um and to now see where the game is today like it's actually a huge difference
like it it really is so oh yeah the team has been at work and the whole concept model has changed
since then and she's played with the old the old heroes and the old art style. The old heroes, yeah. What was it?
The ice girl, bro.
I used to rock with her.
She was on job.
Chiara. I don't remember her name now.
Chiara, yeah.
I felt like I was in The Legend of Aang.
Very similar, very similar.
The inspiration was there.
But no, here are some of the data points, of course.
This is a tweet from Cam himself.
You know, no rewards, no incentives,
which I think is a great from cam himself um you know no rewards no incentives which i think is a
great thing to mention here as well because the turnout um and the retention is is is really
really good especially when there's there's actually no there's no return you know the
players aren't coming to to extract or to get to get something here they're actually coming to to
play the game legitimately but um two thousand plus days of play time in just three
days nearly half of season one uh with just less than one 60th of the players so you can see that
the people that did turn up 100 were putting in they were putting in grinding hours where they
weren't just insane yeah which is which is insane and that ties into the day one retention at 75 percent uh with 48
logging in every day so for the three days it was live almost half of the people who had access to
the play test uh were logging back in uh each of those three days let us know in the comments as
well if that was you if you were one of those people and you've got some opinions to share
please let us know in the comments and we'll keep we'll keep track of that um but yeah average daily play time four hours 42 minutes which a is not a
joke that's a whole 30 energy in in axi like this is these these are the patterns that um you know
exist actually for me super successful five hours is crazy when you think just an adult having five hours to play any game or to do anything in a day.
In this time economy, that's crazy.
For me, that's the stat that sticks out the most because it could be just players playing like half an hour, an hour a day, which is already a lot.
But five hours, that's actually, that's a crazy number.
You need to tone down, you need to tone down the addictiveness, I think.
No, no, no, Brigo, put it up.
That's the opposite of what we're trying to do.
Yeah, it's funny, like, in a, where our audience right now is primarily Web3, which is incredibly incentive driven. And we're seeing like highest daily play time ever for, you know,
a tech test that has some minor issues and, you know,
some really small bugs.
There was really nothing performance affecting or impacting negatively too
But when you take those things into consideration and then no incentives
to see this kind of uh commitment and enjoyment from the players it was it was unbelievable so
uh really bullish uh and motivating nonetheless uh indicators for our team to for for me for me
it shows that the that the web3 gaming community or this is my way of interpreting it is like starved
for for for fun gameplay uh the thing i i played it i played it a bit and what was what stuck out
the most to me was how smooth and optimized it was compared to which is like you know it's it
shouldn't be the first thing that games work on right there's there's other things like actual
the game loops everything like that so there's a lot of games you play and it's just they may be fun and you might have your you might have
bought assets so you're like you're playing just because you've bought stuff and then you're just
like the little things that are not optimized shouldn't shouldn't irk you as much but they do
and then here just having a a smooth gameplay experience is like yeah that's that was the most pleasant thing
what was that could become i was gonna say it's funny you say that because i made a post last
night on my twitter and shout out to the new chat gpt that makes incredible images really fast and can make words. But yeah, so it should be
Yeah, this one. So the most common, the most common term
used was smooth. In feedback, it was Yeah, I asked I asked
chat GPTS. The classic James Bond phase with a silky smooth
smooth text. This is what it made in one try.
It was pretty good.
one of the main
and most common feedback points is how
smooth it is. I think you guys are
absolutely right. Web3
are still gamers at the
end of the day. While the
incentives and the rewards are cool um
if the game isn't like everybody everybody says this but if the game isn't fun if it doesn't play
well like that's not the experience that people want like there's a lot of people out there who
won't sacrifice their like precious gaming time yeah for a game that's not fun like yeah my dude and that and that experience
i feel like changes to or that perspective changes and gets has a lot more magnitude as you go more
like west like for me the amount that i can earn playing you know axie is so different than someone in another country in the East in terms of like relative value of that money.
Right. Like, as you go more West, like the experience matters more and more and more.
And if Web3 wants to unlock the Web2 audience, like it has to have both.
So it's something our team's really focused on yeah even even even
even some webs even websites some websites are not optimized enough and that's way easier to
in my mind in my mind to optimize in a game you know like but if you have a website that's like
clunky to use it it really shocks me that they don't realize how, how like how much,
how much friction that puts onto their project.
like if you click and then you have to refresh it every time and your wallet
disconnects,
like you lose every time that happens,
you lose future players.
And when you come back six months later and a website hasn't changed,
you're like,
what are you guys even doing here?
It's real.
It is real, bro.
We got a question in the chat that just came in.
Shout out to all the chatters that are coming through.
They say, TCAF, what's it like picking Maria and Cam's brain daily
based on their expertise in the past gaming sectors?
That's a fire question, for real,
because that's two MVPs in a Super 1 squad, bro.
Yeah, I know one part of that question which is maria right because i met her at uh gdc also and bro she's way too smart like
i i don't understand it like shit that i never thought about as a gamer she saw it on first hand
like experience just like saw it and broke it down and i'm like i didn't even realize
i should think about that but like it's it's super correct but anyways yeah next level and
so it was funny when gila was talking about cam and the way that he speaks and and all that um
i was gonna say that i'm definitely like the least
interesting of the threes to talk to like if you get a chance to listen to cam or maria speak like
you better like tune in and listen um because yeah i mean they both have such a bevy of experience
in the space but not just like experience being in the space but like
dominating everything they do they're just consistent winners and being able to be on a
team with them or have that exposure is it's insane i'm like i'm incredibly blessed uh to be
honest with you guys uh because i've learned so much and I've grown so much professionally just over.
I've been at the studio for about almost a year and a half now and a year and a quarter, I guess.
And yeah, it's I mean, I've grown exponentially in myself.
exponentially um in in myself and they are just like every time cam talks about his vision one i
know he's going to execute it so that's the first thing and secondly i'm just like i just want to
run through a brick wall right now and i was going to say to you logic like you know first and from
meeting maria and like you were watching her pick apart i won't say what game it
was but um like that and she's like well this should be this and this doesn't make sense and
they're like damn like that's kind of true like she is so smart dude like she oh my gosh i i can't
i can't put into words like how amazing it is to be on a team with people
this talented and it's across the studio.
Like it's not just Cam and Maria.
it's everyone.
I'm probably the least talented person in the studio.
Don't do that.
Don't do that.
You've now set my sights.
You've set my sights where it's like,
we're going to,
we're going to run through the whole favorable team on the road radio at some point like every single member of the team
we would have on on the show for sure you should they're amazing it's wild but talking talking
about you though tcaf um you know you said about a year and a quarter uh in like on the team like
how did you get how did you get into this space like what's your
your you know starting road they didn't begin with actually if you say actually it's gonna blow my
mind a little bit no it's not actually no damn give me the rundown so okay i got into crypto back
at 17 pump i had just moved to florida and this kid i was working with was into
like xrp and litecoin and and all this stuff and he's like crypto is going to be huge and so i
bought a bunch like during the peak of that pump and then it obviously took a big dip right um but
a few years later during covid uh things started to pick up on the
NFT side and
I saw a TikTok for Zed Run
if you're familiar
the horse racing game
the horse racing game
I was like
yeah so my
girlfriend and her family they have a bunch of
horses and so
I was like oh now I own a horse.
I just, it's not real, but it's digital and I race it.
So it was kind of a joke how I got in.
And then once I got in, I just got hooked.
And you know how the rabbit hole could go, especially at the onset when there was 100 different projects minting a day.
And it was just, it was craziness. And everybody was looking for the next uh board api club and so i minted a bunch of this
game studios uh nfts um it ended up not turning out too well in the end but um yeah i i they
offered me a job because i was giving them advice. And so I left my career in sales
and I'd been with the same company for five years.
And I was like, you know, I'm young enough.
I was like 26.
I was like, you know, I can take a chance
on this new gaming, crypto, whatever industry,
see what happens.
And so I was there for like a year or almost two years.
I was there and then uh yeah i joined up fableborn uh
the beginning of last year and it was just you know leveled up and it's been like i said super
blessed to be at one of the best studios in the space you picked a good one bro you could be out
here trying to market some dog shit let's be real you picked a good one bro dude i know i know what
that's like and it's it's funny like people people often are like that was kind of like
like a little bit of a running thing at gdc like how did you go from there to to favor
born and sometimes like yeah yeah sometimes the world works yeah sometimes the world works. Yeah, sometimes the world just works in mysterious ways.
It's true.
I mean, coming from sales outside of this industry,
something that I look at when we're talking about Web3
and something that drew me in massively was the difference.
I wouldn't say the difference,
but I think the community effect would be equally as powerful
outside of this industry if it was capable to be organized wouldn't say the difference i think the community effect would would be equally as powerful outside
of this industry if it was capable to be organized in the way that it is in this industry with
incentive drivers and you know the transparency behind that but like as a marketer like is this
industry totally different uh what are the differences that you've noticed since kind of
working here um it's it's different than when i'm i was working
in for i mean the biggest reason is it's still so new like to us it feels like you know a week in
crypto feels like a lifetime sometimes but to the outside world that's not paying attention to it
like this is all still very new to them like uh the majority of the human population basically
has no idea what this is how it works why it's important why it's going to be the next big thing
like nobody really knows and like when you look at uh like web 2 gaming um and their perspective
on the space like scam and this and that and it's all negative it's really
just a lack of understanding and amidst some misinformation here and there um so i think
that's the major difference is that it's still so so new we're so early guys i hate saying um
but it's great i've been saying the same phrase for four years but it's still true i know it's it's insane it's it's wild so but to me
like where i see the parallels are like from what i was doing is articulating
really intense like contracts and dumbing them down to business owners to making them understand
like why certain parts were important and
that's similar to what we're doing when we're onboarding people into web theory
is you're taking this really intense new technology that nobody outside really
understands you need to give them you know the cliff notes of why it matters
but there's also so much on the line because you can make one
little mistake and lose it all like as we've seen it happen to even uh experienced people in the
space so it's definitely just a around and flying down space right like it really is it is it's like
osrs stills yeah free armor trimming like step into the the wilderness uh i think especially like in
in north america right and maybe like europe a little bit i think like south america and southeast
asia kind of is a little bit more ingrained and that may be because like you know like they realize
they can make more money in crypto rather than working a regular job and you know it's something that's more lucrative for them because it is it is valued kind of like in a
usd sort of like pairing standard and they're like yo i can just play this game and i don't
have to work you know some like manager job that pays less than what crypto uh can yeah that still
blows my brain blows my mind bro yeah but i think like difference
like being here in na like even here like my regular friends like they they all know i'm in
crypto they all know like i'm in crypto gaming but like they kind of refuse to to get in on it
because they're just like bro i could fucking work you know like a regular job make 60 80k a year
and they're like good you know like they're like
i'm not complaining about that like with crypto gaming or with crypto in general it's very hard
for people to make that amount of money especially if they're not like veterans or if they're not
lucky also so yeah i can definitely see that and yeah it is it is a little bit early like the
western audience isn't completely into crypto
yet and once the western audience hopefully gets into crypto then you know we'll see we'll see
something else especially in this economy right you're not going to have someone quit their job
when they have no knowledge base in anything crypto and then tell them come be my scholar
and actually to earn 50 dollars a month bro no you like
it feels like there's 500 people left in web3 gaming at the moment but uh
you know it's the ones that are like still like full-time doing it it's like you have to you have
to master you're mastering what you're doing you know or and then we'll see what it'll change when
things pick up obviously the the big the biggest biggest onboarding tool is the price action.
So when price goes up, all audiences all over the world get more interested.
And then, yeah.
And then if they get sick of Mipcoins, they'll come on to gaming.
Utility, bro.
Number go up, bro.
It always circles back to it.
It does circle back to it.
I mean, we've got a lot
of this is a good thing though this is a good thing because there are a lot of experiences that
don't have like you guys actually have a grip on the entertainment demand as well which i think is
not it's not it with an ignorance to the fact that like favorable and economically and the things that
will be capable in terms of blockchain will you know expand outwardly but like you guys have the grip of
people's mind they actually want to play the game we've got a fucking gamer in here who's
who has adhd severely mr cairo bro he's like flip the switch back on
saying yo we need we need or when season four um the this is i think this is the next place to go
here because,
people have known about the play test.
They arguably were part of it and finding out more about favorable on the
team yourself,
but really and truly they want to know what is next.
what are things look like moving forward?
When will the game go live?
And also we can dive into some conversation about the kingdoms and staking
and stuff like that.
So first of all, shout to Cairo. He's a big supporter of ours, conversation about the kingdoms and staking and stuff like that yeah afterwards yeah sure so first
of all shout to Cairo he's a big supporter of ours uh big kingdom holder primordial holders a shout
out to Cairo we love Cairo that's also also always great to see Cairo in person uh we saw him at GDC
honestly me Cairo and Logic we're we're hanging out a lot at the Wolf's Den. So that was fun.
It did have me questioning, like, am I on the right career path?
Because I was whooping Cairo's ass at every game.
So I was like, maybe I should just start gaming.
You know, I'm going to bring Cairo up here.
If he can make it right now, we can go gaming in, bro.
We're going for a him in here, bro. We're going for time.
But, yeah, so what is – I think we – what?
He's not done with Laura, though, bro.
No, go ahead.
So, sorry, I got a side check.
Here's my ADHD.
So we said, what's up with kingdom staking
so i'll get i'll give everybody a quick tltr of what um kingdom staking is going to be and how
it's all going to work so essentially what we have is our kingdom entities there's seven rarities from common to legendary and basically the staking game is like
a metalayer outside of uh the core loop of fableborn where you can stake power tokens uh once
they exist obviously to your kingdom and you can merge two like kingdoms together into the next rarity having more rare kingdoms yield
you points for staking season leaderboards that will yield you uh rewards like power tokens more
kingdoms some other fun stuff etc the other cool layer of it and how it's tied into the game is
what you need in order for that we call
it merge to mint process right so if you want to go from two common kingdoms to an uncommon kingdom
let's say you also need what we call kingdom supplies nfts um those will start to exist uh
soon um and you'll be able to earn them from playing the game so uh you can't find the the supplies yet
on on ronin um but yeah basically you'll play in fableborn events you'll complete uh quests or
challenges in fableborn and you'll get these kingdom supplies nfts as part of the rewards
um and those will be you know fully tradable And so it's creating this kind of new ecosystem economy
for Fableborn where players can kind of farm
the game a little bit, play and get these resources.
They can sell them to whales or to other players
that want to merge and mint if that's not their thing.
So it kind of creates something uh you know it creates something for
everyone so if you want to just whale and kill you can buy kingdoms you can buy supplies if you want
to be a supplier to those whales you can play fableborn earn some uh some supplies and sell
them or you can be kind of the you know the what i would consider myself is like the the kind of
middle of the road where
yeah i'm gonna play a lot um i'm not a huge whale so i'll try and earn some kingdoms i'll stake the
or i'll use the the supplies that i'm earning i'll stake the power that i'm earning and and
i'll play the game that way um on the outside uh yeah so that'll come i've gotta get i like i need to get into it i think at the end of the day like
there's a good loop it as a flywheel here that you're explaining through the but there was a
huge surge in price right like uh for the floor price at least there was a discrepancy between
um like common and and the the higher rarity of uncommon and they got swept up so you know
and the the higher rarity of uncommon and they got swept up so you know it was two days ago
yeah well i mean look it's still kind of existing right now you see like i would be scooping these
motherfuckers up bro like this is uncommon this is a common like the difference in price is is
it's almost as if someone swept all the commons to kind of boost their floor up but they just they just left the
uncommon as a gift once you turn it on i think we'll see a lot of price action across the board
like i'm really interested to see what happens like it's it's understandable um you know uh
but but what i look at is i i tend to look at the top like If you look at where the price of legendary is... Oh, yeah.
It's fucking insane.
The ones that Coco Bear hasn't swept up.
Yeah, basically.
It's not cheap in terms of Ron or USD
to get into the legendary side of things.
Mystic Assy prices right now bro that's
a that's a good realm to be in you know um yeah i wonder you know have any of these sold
recently are there going to be some bells that come in if i was a web3 gaming whale right now
like there is no way i would not have exposure to a project like favorable after after the the
figures that you guys have been pushing out and the real kind of demand on the ground with gamers players and even content creators
alike like this this has especially as a Ronin project this had the most reach that I've seen
like even be in some of like the extra participation or the enthusiasm of outside or external Ronin
or the enthusiasm of outside or external Ronin creators
and just participants, more so than Axie, right?
Like we had a lot of people that I just don't regularly see,
you know, back in Ronin products essentially
were like really bullish on Fableborn.
So there is a huge scope here.
And I think the top end of this being the legendary.
We even saw it like during for the
mint we saw an influx of of of money from outside running yeah yeah yeah so ron went up and then when
the raffle ended ron went down because people were selling to to re-exit the exercise and that's
like this this is when we were thinking like open road and all of that this is the kind of
uh as as a long- Axie Ronin person.
This is this is what you want.
It's like to to to have games that are so good, it brings in
out like people from the outside, you know, and liquidity from the outside.
And here it was like it was it was it was front and center, like an hour
before the thing ended, Ron went up and then an hour after the Ron
gets given back, Ron went down.
And that's like moving by one game, moving market.
So we're planning on world domination with Ronan.
Shout out to the Ronan team.
This is the other asset though, TKF.
And I mean, no, Kyra is putting it in the chat.
And I've actually been thinking about this as well because of the benefits.
I wonder if like TKF, you give him, sell sell us primordials even though you don't have to sell us primordial shout
out to opensea ronin ronin uh is here on on opensea but primordials were originally uh an
eth based asset as well so they're here also um and i think that's going to be a lot easier to now
be represented you know you could buy with your r own wallet, for example. But this is the current state of Primordials right now.
Sell us Primordials, bro.
I might go buy one after this stream.
Yeah, I'm curious too, because Cairo said, buy Primordials, thank me later.
So, like, what the hell is going on here?
I was actually watching these at the Wolves then when I was, like, sitting down, I think, like, with Maria.
And I was just looking up, fable born assets and at the time it was like 0.4 something like that 0.4 0.45
yeah and uh and now it's it's up so yeah so it's it's it's funny with primordials so they have a
i'll give you a quick background so they minted in
it was before my time with the studio um which is unfortunately by the time i got there like they
were like they were like a couple hundred dollars a piece so i couldn't really ape in but um so it
was honestly what's funny about them is the primordials were originally a failed mint well
primordials were originally a failed mint well kind of they didn't mint out so i think there's
1 392 and i think there was 2 000 supposed to be minted it was like a 30 mint on polygon in
october of 23. so this is like deep bear nobody gave a about any new games any new
mints mints were awful this was back when people were like
you can't do eth because nobody will spend on eath you have to do uh polygon or another
l2 or whatever and yeah it was it was not great um but like looking back and seeing that there
was a time when you could have scooped a ton of these for $30, $40 a piece is unreal.
So right now, as you can see, the art is interesting.
So the art was more aligned with the original style of the game that Gila was talking about.
We didn't change them uh we just didn't uh prioritize it to
be honest and now we're here and so what can i say about primordials what can you say that won't get
you in trouble yeah i'm just like running i'm running through my head real quick like what can i say so what i'll say is that primordials like the focus is always for the primordials to be like
our core community our foundational um community we have a ton of insane like diamond handed holders
uh some people that are really respectable in the space too like uh cairo and and some other
people a lot of wolves have primordials so we always want to treat them as our foundational
community but what i i've been saying is like think think bigger than than just primordials or just uh fableborn for what we have
uh planned for for primordials oh well think bigger um i can't exactly say what that is
going to be soon but um yeah we should have i think i think i think our our viewers can read
between the lines there you know i think you've've already said the magic word, so to speak.
And also, like, another selling point is, like,
there's 3% of the power supply is going to primordials.
So that's, like, I mean, not financial advice,
but it's a nice amount of tokens.
For the cost, if you do the math.
So again, 3% at TG.
So it's a really nice way to get access to power tokens that you'll be able to instantly use to start you know adding into your kingdoms and
all that so um yeah not financial advice but the the three percent is a is a is a nice it's a nice
number it's one of the biggest honestly and the reason why we did uh that large of a number for
that small of a collection is because of honestly how
amazing that foundational community is and we just want to keep that going like
yeah we're pretty confident putting that kind of value into their hands and yeah
no I mean that's a few good things with it that's a it's a it's a bold it's a
bold move that you don't see many projects necessarily doing, but I think it's, when you say it, it sounds obvious, right? But it doesn't, in the boardroom, when, when people are discussing these things, it doesn't seem, it doesn't necessarily pop up in most people's minds, especially when you have, as you said, a mint that didn't quite, that didn't mint out and then those people you know those are the people that held after they paid full price because we all know usually when something doesn't mint out usually the price
crashes after so you have the people who minted before you were well known that held on they they
and that they've held up till now that picked some up even after because you can't blame them for
doing that either on a discount i think it's uh it's a it's a it's a good move. And you don't necessarily see that many projects
doing it or they're not doing it well enough, not doing it clearly enough to highlight, put their
Genesis collection and the Genesis community on a pedestal.
Yeah, we incessantly take feedback and have done from the get-go from the community
and uh you know we have the kingdom holders now too which is amazing because they've been really
really great with feedback that's a lot of like new ronin community members right so um we have
these two cohorts um but yeah since day one um the team has really relied on a lot of the feedback
that the Primordials provide.
So they've been –
You've been the feedback in the chat.
Let me play.
Shout out, Trevor, my man Trevor.
No, I would say rarity does not matter of primordials.
I don't think there's
a plan for rarity to
come into play. I don't
want to say never because
I don't just want to stamp that.
But right now, there's
nothing planned for rarity.
This is probably my biggest fumble
because i played this game in 2023 the primordial mint was like up and coming i think it was some
it's so stupid it was like something so simple as to like share an eth wallet like to the the team
and i just didn't do it and then i and now they're 800 like i'll really
flop this is this is it's that's classic gillardolph it's like for every story this you know i go
through yeah i go through i go through like the hardest roughest most retarded and worst experience
of web3 just so like i can i can relate you know all the monkeys out there you could you could add
a hundred of these for like one and a half half east oh no thanks tcaf you made me feel so much
better i didn't buy him either i i didn't it's funny like i did when when i was beginning to
talk to the paperwork team um i didn't really know much about it to be honest with you
like i missed this mint like it was just such like bad times for for web3 gaming when they minted um
that like yeah i mean i was in wolves and there was a bunch of wolf style guys and gals that had
them um and that's how i met maria through wolves and i was like oh this is
cool and then we started talking and then you know this is such a good space would would you say that
would you say that the the fact that it didn't mint out was also maybe due to marketing and
things like that or was it just because i think there's a couple of mints this week on or in the past week on ronin
uh that didn't mint out and so the the topic is is is is current but because it's also you have
you know it's like a it's a whole other game to to make sure you mint out and
to to do them all the marketing around that and get the get the tokens and then if i mean the
nfts in the right hands so how important is it
yeah it's it's definitely really important and i i would say
the the primordial mint was more attributed to um i would say the the external market like it was
really down bad like crypto was down bad gaming really down bad
um but they did have a really awesome game um and and obviously but yeah I would say it was
less of a marketing issue more of a more of just a timing but for now I would say yeah I mean it's
obviously incredibly important to have a good marketing strategy and campaign um i think we're still in
a time where i mean if you look at um like our kingdom mint right which was only a month and a
half ago i mean we had 15.4 million ron which was it was a dollar 20 run at that point too yeah it's
like 21 million dollars of of uh of value just in for the pre-sale right so
it's wild yeah it was of watching that number give up on the last couple days i'm just like
i couldn't believe it yeah i think it's also like maybe because it was in in polygon right
like i'm not trying to throw shade oh no no that was a huge problem too
it was it was like that was that was kind of the thing is it was like
it lacked a little bit of identity because everyone was saying if you try and mint something on eth
you know you're cooked at that time like nothing's minting on eath nobody wants to pay gas fees because everything's so shit right now. And then
it's like, okay, well you can go to Polygon where
there's like zero liquidity.
And so that's just another barrier.
And so it was kind of like a lose-lose
at the time. But I
think it was, they were at a point where
they felt they had to mint.
And they were just ready to go and
ready to roll with the punches.
They had confidence in the product and the team, basically, no matter what happened.
And it turned out pretty good, I would say.
Yeah, for sure.
I mean, now market kind of adjusted, right?
Like now that it is on OpenSea, it is on these marketplace platforms, like people are buying them up. And I think with the recent thing too,
of Ronin assets going into OpenSea,
it kind of pumped everything that was good.
Not everything pumped, for example,
but everything that was actually good in Ronin
definitely got the eyes it deserves.
And Fave Warden is one of them for damn sure.
And hey, shout out to Ronky.
You know, that's one of them too.
The blue boy.
Yeah, the blue boy.
Before we get onto that topic though, because I took a piss, came back.
I don't know if we covered it, but we did.
How long are all the fiends in the chat?
How long are we going to have to wait?
Can we ballpark figure it, or is there a date,
or is both of those not really on the table right now?
So the date isn't on the table right now,
but we're not far, I would say.
So the test that we just had was to test those new features that are going to be prevalent in S4.
We're going to actually do a test of staking next week, which will be cool.
So it'll be like it'll be testnet. Obviously, it won't be real, but we're going to get the staking platform all tested out. So we're, we're, we're close.
You know, we got a lot of really bullish indicators, obviously from the test and
things went pretty well. So we're, we're, we're hopefully not too far away from, from S4.
S4 is going to be a nice season. I think everybody's going to love what we have planned for
it. Just, just a matter of, of getting there and hitting, hitting that nice season. I think everybody's going to love what we have planned for it.
Just a matter of getting there and hitting that launch button.
I know everybody's on pins and needles, and I am too. So trust me, I can't wait to get it out there.
So hopefully, hopefully very, very soon.
On to the Blue Monkey.
Let's talk about it then the blue monkey
yo bronchi is healing it by the way for an asset that was about three four days ago what like a
hundred run floor or something and now we we're doubling that we're going for 200 wrong floor
bare minimum 200 dollar floor i think it was what we were aiming for um but the amount
of sales that's happened since we've uh gone onto opensea um you know that's his running project
products have been on opensea is actually ridiculous when you think about it like
that's a that's so much volume there's so many sales like wait can we like i need to comprehend it like how do you how
is this fucking retarded monkey doing 700 000 in 24 hour volume like bro rocky say ronin bro
actually say navis okay rocky say ronin bro that's what it is it's actually nuts like you have to be real though
this has probably been one of the like this is a tough time we're going to talk about this a
little bit later on but there's there's actual like chains uh and projects companies that
essentially are aiming at doing the same things that ronin is doing that are on their fucking
hands and knees right now like it's not
easy in this space it really isn't and the market and where we are right now is really fucking tough
i genuinely think we would be in a crisis like it probably would feel crisis a little bit
if ronky didn't happen that's my honest opinion like if ronky didn't happen over the last two three months we would be like
i mean it's not even like a financial thing like to be honest though if i would have put
my entire portfolio into a bronchi token and bronchi nfts it probably would be uh uh
probably more valuable than it is today
i was pretty like that right and it also showed like in these tumultuous times like
you know when assets are bleeding if you have a community and a cohort of people that are just
like you know what fucking blue monkey coin i'm not gonna touch it just leave it there
like you actually do save some capital like as a, as a unit,
I'm not saying that Ronkey hasn't gone down as an affected by this bear market.
Of course it has,
but there's a lot more stability in Ronkey than there are in like some real
utility based,
large backing tokens out here in this industry.
it's been a phenomena to,
to observe and to be a part of and you know
i think in a few years time you know it would be a proud moment to like look back on and laugh
do you own do you own a ronky oh yeah oh yeah so you're in the army i yeah so i actually i saw i believe honestly again shout out my boy cairo i swear i think it
was his tweet about it um very early on i bought in at 200k market cap um so i got in pretty early
i was just like oh funny blue monkey bye like first time in a long time that that I didn't mid-curb something.
Now, what I
will say, and my PFP,
it's like the Studio Ghibli
version of it now, but
it was like Runkified.
It's been Runkified basically
for the last, basically since Runky
came out. But I will say
I will say I thought
the Mint was going to be bearish um i am typically
anti meme coin nfts and they were like making fun of me like on the
like on the official twitter bro they were they were cooking me because i was like a big like i
love this monkey meme coin then they were like we're gonna mint these entities because i was like a big like i love this monkey meme coin then they were like
we're gonna mint these entities and i was like no please don't do that like please don't ever
make anything about real it did split people to be honest it really did like i mean even one of our
um you know normal hosts out here as well you know even 1437 he was like i'm more bullish on the nft
than the token so there was a mix you know mixed bag when he was like i'm more bullish on the nft than the token so there was
a mix you know a mixed bag when it was first brought up so i can understand why you were you're
in that yeah you wanted the pump you wanted the pump right the token you got so many of them it
wasn't even that it's like i just seen in the past like so many meme coins try and do the the nfts
and they've typically crashed and burned or they've had this ip the huge pump and
it's like oh it's cool and then for some reason there's just always this huge crash but bronchi's
been been strong dude so i still got my romkies um i'm rocking with them still. I did fade by not buying more after the mint,
but man, shout out to the Ronke community.
I got so many requests to put Ronke in Fableborn.
Are you considering it though?
Make it a monster or something.
It's got to be considered.
I'm not joking, bro.
That shit has to be considered. Dude, it's gotta be considered i'm not joking bro that shit has to be considered dude it's so
funny um i would say like i said before like nothing's off the table um ever um in the near
future no it's just it's one of those things where it's like it's it's very expensive to do and we
want to do uh just from terms of like testing and making it right like you've seen like we haven't
even introduced a new character in you know probably six eight months i think the last time
a new character came out was in season two i think with shade um uh in terms of hero so
we're really diligent about making sure things are right like we don't have skins in the game yet for
for characters or cosmetics or anything so like it's not that it wouldn't be awesome um because
i think it would be but it's just in terms of like if we want to do something like that we want to
do it the right way and we don't just want to throw in a blue monkey ronky just to do it um we would want to
make it impactful and make sure it makes sense across the board so but i know the ronin community
absolutely loves it and they're big fans get hard when we see a blue monkey
i don't think that will help me sell it to the
how no bro that's a fucking perfect picture like
i don't think so
i thought we were right or something maybe not that's why you're the marketer and i'm not
tcaf bro i'll be honest with you but um guys it's been interesting to see the the ip itself though like it's a bit of a joke but
genuinely like i i can see it expanding uh in many ways there's one thing that's been going
around on the timeline actually which i'm i can't not share it to be honest um with this game this like look at this i'm a fighting game
fan right so i want to see this so bad but ronky oh yeah fighting game this shit looks so goaded
when are we getting this i mean and this is this is this is arguably where my mind share is is at
in the boredom right now i messaged this account i was
like yo if you're an indie dev like give me the access to this game i will play it a lot i give
you all the feedback you need and i haven't been replied to so i guess i'm a damn messaging messaging
random people on twitter and asking them to send you an exit file is a very interesting way oh i'm
i'm i'm going it the other way around bro you ain't got a fishing link me i'm a yeah can you you're
just messaging people can i please yeah you're going after it yeah
i think we lost gila and the stream or did we lose oh we lost
i don't know what the hell was lost yeah yeah yeah
it was i clicked i clicked on a fishing link oh sorry lads
no no i actually don't know i don't know what the fuck just happened but you got that you got
that arsenal caliber wi-fi over there bro damn i know we had this on the space um you know i forgot i would have wore
i would have wore uh one of my jerseys my chelsea jersey oh god not chelsea i'm so yeah see
stark see chelsea's not too bad though like it's not it's not it's not so bad bro i'm actually i've
liked chelsea more especially than Man United.
So you can... Oh, yeah.
Man United, it's not the season to pick up my jersey, I don't think.
It's not the decade.
We got London Darby later today.
Chelsea Spurs.
We lost Gila again.
We lost him again.
There was a couple of questions that Cairo asked,
and I don't know if you're able to answer them,
but he wrote them right as we were pivoting.
But he was wondering if kingdoms will have utility in-game
in the upcoming season, whenever that does happen.
And then the second question he had was,
will primordials ever do anything in-game?
And I think Trevor had asked earlier as well
if they would be playable or...
You can plead the fifth.
I won't plead the fifth. That the the so when it comes to kingdoms like there's we're working on some like actual like
legitimate in-game utility it won't be in season four um what the utility and the role that kingdoms will play in s4 is really just with
the the the staking seasons the merge to mint um the kingdom supplies nfts that you can earn from
s4 from playing in the game so that's kind of going to be the first inclusion of kingdoms
it won't be something like irate logic and logic has a rare kingdom and so therefore like it looks like
his rare kingdom that's not what it's going to be um for season four i don't even know if that's
what it's 100 going to be in the future but um not not for season four um and then primordials
so as i said earlier the primordials art style is aligned with the old style of the game.
It's something that hasn't been changed.
We've talked about changing it with the community before.
It's probably something that's going to get changed.
Primordials probably won't look like Primordials um in the way that they look now
and so no i would say like that character the chances of that character being in the game
and looking like that very slim um that's one of the reasons why i didn't buy one as well because
they they do look like not like they're from two different games i mean in some ways arguably
like the tie-in wasn't there um but i think now you know favor one you guys have like a clear
direction a clear path visually ip wise and also you know as a game so like i i don't think there
would be a lot of people in the camp especially if the utility aspect is not removed from prime orders which obviously is not having a brain dead as far but like i don't think they
would be too bothered by an ip revamp on the most people requested it to be honest it's just okay
when we're looking at everything else uh that needs to be done it was just lower on the priority like just to make
uh a superficial change to what they look like but as i was saying too like when people are
asking about utility for the primordials like outside of the token and what their role is going
to be like as i said like think bigger think what else is is coming and we want them to be the
foundation of the whole ecosystem not just fail-worn and so um
yeah there's there's there's cool stuff on the way for for those holders i would say
i'm about to do this right now live
the viewers have been told that twice the stream so if they don't act on it they cannot
complain in the future insufficient funds what does that mean
that's what that means and on that note ladies and gentlemen yo tecaf bro it's been a fucking
pleasure having you here.
Like really, really enjoyed this show myself and, you know, shout out to everybody that's been in chat.
Cairo said, yay there.
Thanks, there's my leak.
There's some comments I'm going to put up here.
Stark, this one's for you, bro.
Look, you got admirers out here.
Look at that beautiful face.
But then contradicting by saying, yeah, my man just definitely just woke up bro shout out to inspector
he's a dope creator on youtube and we met in paris we met in paris for nft paris and we
he's a friend of travis and but i had never met him before and travis was arriving the next day
so i just met up with him in a bar that guy i'd never met before and then
we just had we just went to like different bars we did a bar call with different people and we
had a an amazing night with a guy i just met there look i hope we get as a as a four here
we get to have an in-person event at some point because uh i definitely think we'll have a really good time oh yeah baby you go out with this lad stark bro yeah you're gonna have
a good fucking night
a testament as well to fableborn's um addictiveness uh we had some of the
cobbets coming in saying withdrawal symptoms so you guys are already on watch for those
things but that is true i have withdrawal symptoms right now can't wait for
season four uh some great leaks today as well around the assets uh in in the ecosystem so
hopefully you guys take advantage of them kingdoms are there now staking is soon to be tested
with those kingdoms and of course the primordials have all of their benefits too so big shout out
to tcaf for being here bro appreciate you uh any any anything you want to leave us off with uh on today's show um no just thanks to everybody that that's tuning in watching
we we love you guys and you know as we continue to like ingrain ourselves in the ronin community like
you know as i was saying we're always open to any and all kinds of you know constructive feedback
things that we can do better and you
know we've we've really been enjoying the the ronin community so far so shout out to you guys
and you know for doing things like this and and thank you guys so much for for always having us
on and being huge supporters of us on this show it's i love watching this show you guys are so
entertaining and like uh a space where there's like some pretty, like,
like I'm not a big spaces guy because I think they're so boring.
they're boring,
They're boring.
I'm sorry.
And this show is always like,
you guys get me fired up to listen.
you're awesome,
I think it's just because I'm retaliated.
No, no, no. That, I think it's just because I'm retired. No, no.
That's not the root cause.
There's a lot of that in this space.
are you London-based, Gila?
No, no, no. I'm in
a city called Birmingham,
the other side of the country.
Oh, shit. That's far. Right now, if you check the
news on Birminghammingham we're having
uh you know bin men strike which you guys will call the trash can man strike um yeah but yeah
it's literally a shit hole right now and the plan to get out of here is is is in effect i'll actually
be over the atlantic with you guys um at some point in26. Oh, you're coming to the States?
Yeah, I actually studied there. I went to university
in North Carolina.
Got a lot of friends out there,
fiancés out there now as well.
Wow, nice.
Let's see what happens.
Come on, the tariffs.
I'm not really for the market.
I'm joking, I'm joking. But yeah, the tariffs. I'm not really for the market. I'm joking.
I'm joking.
But, yeah.
I actually want to shed a light on this before we do go.
Tomorrow, Fableborn is actually hosting an AMA.
So more questions if you guys have them.
You know, be in attendance.
The team will be there answering those things.
Join the Discord and join that conversation.
But from us over here on this side i think that's all she wrote
i've got a few points to kind of string off here uh you know welcome to my um welcome to my bookmarks
but uh d finnizer i don't know what the fuck his name is but it is what it is one of openc's co
is d finzer i don't know why he's the ceo bro he's the ceo of open sea okay well the ceo of open sea is this ronky is wrong
tarded he's in there bro like yesterday we had the rocky space and we saw the stuff that was
going down he actually posted about it at the time saying um wrong versus in the top 10 and
this wasn't him but he i think he commented on this uh saying it's a top 10 nft trading volume
today on the world's biggest nft marketplace let's be real uh and then he went and bought
