my 2p worth.
I havent been playing in EU and mostly look around in other crypto games as of late. And none of these crypto games have even 1/10 of the stuff MA has put out in EU, which is why i am surprised EU isnt more popular compared to other crypto games, i mean some of them dont even have a mention on google. Like lets take decentraland for example, some of their small land areas can easily go into 5 digit figures, yet they dont have the sophiscated gameplay that EU offers in the form of hunting monsters there, so the pbase thing imo is should be easily fixed in theory...although i dont know what it is hehe.
Maybe introduce custom games in LA aka a game maker style?

and yes i think EU with UE5 will be a huge changer in gameplay.
I'm not sure in todays day and age, what crypto holders seek, but i remember one thing that people were drawn to it for before, and i would presume still today, is that it is not tracable (unless you almost on purpose make it tracable...) And it is not taxable (it is in most of the world taxable, but since it is not tracable the only way to tax on it is if someone is not smart and lets mr tax man know how much they have).
This means that EU is not attractive as when you play EU, and you use the currency we have which is PEDs and PECs, the currency operates more akin to what it would be traveling abroad to a different country, and using the currency in that country. When you log onto EU, you essentially log into a different country that has its own economy and its own currency, that is directly like most of the world, tied to a real tangible currency. It is transparant, there are taxes, and if you want to withdraw, it goes through actuall banking systems . All of which are held up to a fiarly high standard as MA still runs out of sweden afaik. And nordic countries to not take lightly on regulations and wealth.
Crypto games, its compared to EU, a lot more "willy nilly" in the regard that its not tied directly to a real fiat, (US Dollar in entropias case). So that by default, makes EU very unattractive to the new age of crypto gamers as it really is not at all crypto and its simply just "another country and another taxed fiat".
Personally, i don't mind crypto, for reasons i may or may not have crypto. But I am glad and in a way hope that EU does distinguish and keep the distinct difference clear still. We can depo with crypto, but i'm not sure if id feel ok if we could withdraw in crypto (due to regulations, and what makes the game likely able to operate as it is out of a nordic country, and not a tax gaven ala malta or cayman islands etc) for us, players, that it operates out of sweden, is a good security to have, to know its following the rules and wont just go belly up and the owners ghost the face of earth with our own money some day. if Eu were to transfer to a tax haven, id be very vary of wanting to invest in any item in EU that had a higher value.
