there's been a rush of AI startups trying to break into the games industry

Why I am bullish web3 gaming:  
  
Gaming VCs increased in size vs. 2018. A lot of funding is available for gaming projects.  
  
80% are actively investing in web 3 gaming.  
  
Buts it’s a tough industry to invest— there are only 19 notable exits in the past 10 years.

### Mitch Lasky (Benchmark) — The laziest VC move in games is "pedigree chasing"

The laziest VC move in games is "pedigree chasing": only funding ex-Riot, Epic, or Blizzard employees (and not always leads). The founders of those massive companies (and countless other successful ones) had zero "big game company" experience. But now they're the Ivy League. ![😂](https://twemoji.maxcdn.com/v/14.0.2/72x72/1f602.png)

Great discussion with a gaming VC's about web3 UA/ad network models  
  
Agreement on what it wont look like:  
  
\- NOT a mobile ad network 2.0 - high ECPM/crypto ads  
  
\- NOT Google Ads 2.0  
  
\- NOT wallet ads ( at least in the current form)  
  
Billion $$ opp for whoever cracks it.

### Tommy Ngo (Zynga) — Higher user demand than product supply makes Web3 gaming promising. Esp since there's no playbook yet.

On gaming —  
  
![🎮](https://twemoji.maxcdn.com/v/14.0.2/72x72/1f3ae.png) PC/console gaming is all about IP and graphic  
  
![📱](https://twemoji.maxcdn.com/v/14.0.2/72x72/1f4f1.png)mobile gaming is all about microtransactions and LTV  
  
![🕸️](https://twemoji.maxcdn.com/v/14.0.2/72x72/1f578.png) no web3 gaming playbook yet, but cannot be more bullish on a space with higher user demand than product supply  
  
2023/2024 should be fun
