Welcome back to the People's Guild. This week we welcome in a guest for his second visit to the show and first in the last 6 or so months. He's the VP of Creative over at team Splinterlands and Praetoria's primary peddler of the best eyecandy in town.
We proudly welcome @nateaguila to the show.
Nate gets things started in sharing his remarkable artistic journey and what inspires him. He expresses his deep love for fantasy and science fiction literature and discusses his aspirations in the world of comic book artistry. Nate also mentions the profound influence of independent publishers like Todd McFarlane, who has continued to push the envelope throughout his career and taken an innovative approach to NFTs and blockchain technology.
Our episode also delves into the decision-making process and restructuring within Steemmonsters. We emphasize the crucial role of competent leadership and unity, as they lead to increased efficiency and quicker decision-making. Nate tells us that within the creative team, they've retained members by reducing tasks or hours, and the level of responsibility and involvement within the Splinterlands team varies depending on the project. Invenium provides invaluable support in UI design and graphics, with the aim of fostering mutually beneficial partnerships.
We discuss the board's sentiments regarding the team's financial situation and future, focusing on proactive measures for stability. Over time, the perception of certain situations has evolved, and the team is now in a position to prioritize quality over rushing deadlines.
Furthermore, we touch on the presentation of the impending web 3.0 project's to venture capitalists (VCs), emphasizing the importance of utility and infrastructure development. The project strives to stand out in an industry where NFTs without utility are commonplace. Nate highlights the significance of utility and revenue in the cryptocurrency ecosystem and how it can provide substantial value to VCs when they partner with a company built on a strong foundation.
Overall, this episode of The People's Guild podcast offers a comprehensive exploration of the Splinterlands universe, covering various aspects such as game development, artistry, decision-making, and the importance of utility in the crypto space.
Upwards & onwards!
Enjoy the show.
