RE: A Bitter Splinter Moon

I have tried splinterlands once. The game was too addictive for me. And with so many games available on hive, I felt @dcitygame was a better opportunity from investment returns and with less amount of time needed daily.

Anyway, I planned that once I build my city in dcity game, I would buy cards on splinterlands again, and start playing. It's quite fun buying all those monsters and summoners. At least for the people who haven't played it a lot.

But I am consumed enough in dcity that I never had time. Maybe one day, I will. And be a late joinee...better late than never.

This raises the investment question as to whether I would have earned more from playing or from creating?

I think it depends what interests you the most. I see a lot of people who play games like splinterlands, dcity, risingstars etc. But they never create any content on hive. And are still successful to an amount.

The way I see it is that when you play a game, you can connect to only 5-10 new people. And only a few of them will be in your contact for long term.

But when you create content, it gives you the opportunity to connect with almost everyone on this platform. The reach is bigger if you are a consistent and a good content creator.
But on games, you will be left in a circle of maybe a dozen or so people in a discord channel.

Also, creating content improves you in so many ways, you are putting your thoughts in the form of content daily, connecting with new people, earning money.
But in games, you have a chance to earn money, and maybe get good at one of a kind game.

When I think about this, content creation seems better choice, whereas playing games is a worthy investment + fun opportunity. A way to diversifying your hive holdings😅
