Game's Afoot 4 - Dynamic India

Updated: Jan 18, 2023

This is the final installment of EkaLore’s Game’s a foot series. This final piece outlines areas where Dynamic India has the opportunity, and risks, to create new marketspaces, revenues, and societal value from games, gaming, and gambling. Here they are:


Game Currency


Pseudo-crypto currencies have been used in many types of games. The transaction types, currency management, financial services, and operations are indistinguishable from operations on crypto-currencies. Monetary market management (like money supply (stores of value), capital flows, exchange rates, and funds management) look identical to “real money” operations. Financial market operations look identical to ‘real money” operations (currency exchange, escrow, authentication/authorization/execution cycles, transaction integrity, auditing, distributed/redundant ledgers). There is a reasonable argument for applications and functions (from handhelds to central transaction registrations) as being as capable in-game currency as they are in other marketspaces.


High-performance web-apps


Architecture services for MMPORG operations are high performance driven delivery services. Serious game platforms require and demand low latency, tiers of application responses, distribution of user interface functions, and continuous operations. The monetary damage from losing an hour’s benefits of game or gambling operations is as severe as losing a bank’s operations for an hour. The scale and service delivery of cloud compute and network resources supporting games and gambling is similar to the largest commercial eCommerce operations. Delivering these needs comparably to eCommerce is an Indian domestic development demanded for the games and gambling operations.,


Content Generation Operations


Development of content for India domestic market end-user interfaces widens the roles for continuing roles for artists, artisans, creators, and content managers. Global investment in game-related content has created an industry larger than traditional movie/TV-show content creators. Using the latest tools, media and medium management, dispersed contributor capabilities, and creating skilled employment for a different group of people is a net gain for India. Global content creation has created specialties in domiciles as different as Quebec (Canada), USA (California and New York), New Zealand (motion capture and animation studios), UK (combined media), and others. A Dynamic India has the opportunity to compete and gain just on the basis of the tremendous demand for local content.


Content Moderation


Recent employment actions in global tech enterprises has revealed many operations are distributed and dispersed on a global scale. Content moderation (highly labor intensive) is one of the functions likely to continue to grow in the near-to-mid term. Interests of regulators and governments in India create a strong desire for appropriate content moderation. This can create a large employment industry (and then opportunities for sophisticated AI applications!) with many lessons to take to the global marketspaces. A Dynamic India with many cultures and media memes has an opportunity to fit to local demands. A competitive capability is desirable for global marketspaces.
