It’s Time to Get REAL About the Games We Play
from Andrew M. Laird · host Andrew M. Laird
Today’s Laird Social Club live stream is about expectations.Whether you play Sorare, MFL, Sport.Fun or any other relatively new platform, it’s easy to look at every decision through one lens: Is this good for me as a user?But that’s not always the same as asking whether it’s good for the long-term sustainability of the platform.These are young companies operating in a field littered with projects that didn’t make it. They’re going to experiment. They’re going to change direction. They’re going to make decisions we disagree with. And sometimes, what would make users happiest in the short term simply isn’t what’s best for the business.That doesn’t mean we should blindly accept every decision they make. It means we should be realistic about what we’re signing up for when we spend our time and money on relatively new platforms.Today we’ll discuss Sorare, MFL and Sport.Fun, what we should reasonably expect from each of them, the balance between user value and company sustainability, and why sometimes we need to appreciate these games for what they are today — while still believing in what they could become tomorrow.👍 Like the stream if you enjoy the content, subscribe for daily Sorare videos and livestreams, and join the conversation in chat! 🤝 Unlock exclusive perks and join the community in the Laird Social Club: https://withLaird.com ⚽️ Become a Sorare manager today: https://sorare.pxf.io/WyLBnZ🏟️ Begin your MFL journey today: https://app.playmfl.com/?referrer=F2047C📈 Get started on Sport.Fun: https://pro.sport.fun/login/?referral_code=UITMX28FXU9
