Expectations VS Reality In Pegaxy
I have been a race jockey in Pegaxy for quite some time now, and so far, I must say that I am still enjoying this game. Despite the price of VIS being down, I still have faith in it that one day, this game will also be known worldwide just like how Axie Infinity got its fame.
When I first got to race bmjc98, a Pega from AxieBCH, I was so hyped that I kept telling my friends that this is probably the easiest and stress-free play-to-earn game ever. That this game is not as time-consuming compared to when you are playing Axie Infinity. Everything I’ve said is true but not when you have more than 2 Pegas.
No-brainer game
Indeed, Pegaxy is a no-brainer game. All you need to do is pick a Pega of your choice, find a match, and wait for the result. It’s not like Axie Infinity that you need to think of a strategy on how to defeat your opponent. It’s so easy that even kids can race your Pegas on your behalf.
It’s an easy game for now, but it will change eventually. The devs are actually working on making it a skill-based game, giving the players full control of their Pegas while it's on the racing track. This way, the top 3 Pegas will no longer be random but based on how the players race their horses.
Stress-free
Unlike Axie Infinity, which you most likely curse during your every gameplay, Pegaxy is a stress-free version of it. Since it’s a no-brainer game, you don’t get stressed the way you got stressed in Axie but not until you invest your own Pega.Â
When you have your own Pega, that’s the time when you take everything seriously. You started to get stressed when your Pega doesn’t win a lot, especially if it’s expected to finish at the top, 3 then suddenly it ranks down at #4.
Another example is when you bought a virgin Pega with no experience at all in racing. You bought the Pega just because you thought its stat is quite impressive but when raced, it always ends at the bottom. Trust me, it is quite frustrating to see the performance of your Pega like that.
It is also stressful, even for those who only got their Pegas from their guild. Some guilds, like Chad’s P3 Racing, require their scholars to drain their energy way before it reaches 18 each. Then here comes the error that no matter how many times you have changed its RPC, it won’t fix the error and still won't let you race.Â
Not time-consuming
Racing a Pega only takes 1 minute or less but if you encounter errors, that’s when it starts to consume so much of your time. For instance, you join a match, but it says that the race is already full, or you join a match but finding a match takes longer than it is supposed to. Then you join a match again and the error keeps happening.
Now, imagine if you have more than 2 Pegas and have more than 15 energies each, and the error keeps bugging you, then it’s going to consume so much of your time and stress you out for sure.
Closing thoughts
This is the reason I finally decided to rent out two of my Pegas to a friend because if I choose to play all 8 Pegas, then I won’t have time for other things like writing articles.
As you all know, aside from racing Pegas, I also play Axie Infinity and Dracoo Master, which are both skill-based P2E games, so I kind of need more energy for myself before I can perform well for these two.
