Episode 62: A Hardpoint Conversation
Episode 62: A Hardpoint Conversation
Welcome back to the People's Guild. This week we have the privilege of sitting down with yet another team member on the Splinterlands crew. In his first public appearance since 2022, our guest walks us through what's been keeping him going, where his ambitions for this game see us heading and, most importantly, he provides the community with some much appreciated proof of life.
Without further ado, we proudly welcome Hardpoint to the show.
We get things going with some of our guest's high level views of the future of crypto, web3 and a bit of speculation around both Splinterlands' and gaming's role in the bigger picture of crypto adoption.
From there, we take a turn down the massive rabbit hole that is Hardpoint's current passion project - Praetoria. Our guest shares a metric ton of goodness and, we daresay alpha, around the future of land, including the (as of now) imminent introduction of land surfing.
Throughout the episode, we are treated to a whole slew of our guest's aspirations for what's possible within the Praetorian landscape. As we tumble down the rabbit hole with Hardpoint, it becomes abundantly clear that creating moments for our gamers and stakeholders within this ecosystem is a major driving force behind all that is happening behind the scenes. All things considered, and despite all of the salt and negativity, its an exciting time to be here and watch as these stories unfold towards a revival of the game.
This conversation proves itself as yet another example of the passion that the leaders over at Steemonsters operate with on a daily basis. Over the last 6 months, the variety of team member guests we've hosted here at have all consistently conveyed their excitement and their dedication for the community, the ecosystem and the future of the game. Inspiring stuff.
We have an absolute blast in this episode and its our sincere privilege to present to you our conversation with Hardpoint.
Enjoy the episode!

As someone with enough cards to work about 5% of his land, this was really good listening.
Thought ya might find some interest in the land surfing. Some cool strategies sure to be borne out of this for folks lookin to purely surf.
Did the treasure golem strike your fancy?
Not bad. I was slightly outside top 200, so no title; but I have enough titles and didn't want to cost somebody else the chance.
Generous move, hermano. What ya gonna do with that land plot? Surf's up?!
Did ya hear Hardpoint discuss his thoughts on the in-game treasure golem battle?
Almost midnight here, but I'm halfway through and freshly enthused.
Ah, yea probably haven't hit his comments - my brain immediately went to bar fight. Enjoy the rest of the episode dude 😎
Good to here from hardpoint, land surfing sounds really cool! thanks for another good show. 👍

My previous @v4vapp proposal has expired. I have a new one which is running but unfunded right now. I'm still running @v4vapp and all my other services.
I've just updated v4v.app and I'm getting ready for some exciting new features after the next hard fork.
Please consider asking your friends to vote for prop #265 or consider unvoting the return vote.
For understandable reasons in the current crypto climate it is harder to get funded by the DHF, I accept this so I'm asking a wider audience for help again. I'll also add that I power up Hive every day and usually power up larger amounts on 1st of the Month. I'm on Hive for ideological reasons much more than for only economic benefit.
Additionally you can also help with a vote for Brianoflondon's Witness using KeyChain or HiveSigner
If you have used v4v.app I'd really like to hear your feedback, and if you haven't I'd be happy to hear why or whether there are other things you want it to do.
Great interview again 💪. Keep up the good work, nice guests you had the last view episodes.
Thanks for taking the time to tune in and drop a comment, Beaker! Glad you've been enjoying the episodes. We've got some more cool ones teed up for the next few weeks - keep your eyes peeled!
