irl speed runs and dungeon raids are the natural evolution. There are those who participate = play the game. And those who watch others participate = the bystander. You need players to play the game and bystanders to observe the game. And now, those who will bet on the game. And soon, prediction markets will assist in the creation of “games”. A monetized flywheel of event creation and re-creation. What came first, the game or the bet? Decades of streaming and decades of video games: the medium is the message. Video games as simulation. The future of labor is part completing tasks, completing missions, completing bounties [via prediction markets]. Capital will go from reacting to events to creation of events = ♾️. The future of labor is “re-creation”. See Baudrillard on Hyperreality.
