Well it's just about the amount of users on a blockchain. Why are there so many apps and so high fees on ETH? Because ETH has a lot more ppl using it than here. Double the user base and you can quadruple the coin price.
Just compare the prices for NFTs: they are multiple times higher on ETH than on other chains because there are more ppl. And more ppl means more $$$ and more $$$ brings in more ppl. Because of that ppl are still paying these fees on ETH.
But why would a game developer create a game here if there are other blockchains with more ppl and less fees? Just take a look at splinterlands, do you think it would jave survived with the current blurt fees? 0.1 blurt per transaction? And there are a lot transactions.
I don't see any advantages for blurt when it comes to games. Why would a dev chose blurt instead of hive? Not having downvotes is just a social media thing but not important for apps.
Your whole comment proves the first sentence I wrote in the comment above.
"Fees have nothing to do with games or development."
Why are ppl paying these fees on ETH? Because there are so many users and many users means more money. NFTs are selling for idiotic amounts of $ because of so many ppl who are trading them or are hoping to sell them for more. Take a look at NFTs on hive, they are selling for less because there are less users. But at least the fees are much lower there (only service fees and no fee from the blockchain).
And now take a look at blurt, even less users and higher fees than hive. Where are the advantages for blurt from the perspective of a game creator?
Why should a developer use blurt with it's fees when there are steem and hive without fees?
If blurt wants such thing like games then there need to be some nice blockchain features.
