every other day a web3 gaming critic and web3 believer draws swords at each other, arguing about the same things that have been argued for years with no resolution. critics are right about the flaws with current implementations and believers are also right about the potential of.

This weekend I found myself completely lost in vibecoding what I've always wanted to build: A Diablo-like, 2.5D isometric fantasy dungeon crawler (I am not known for my originality). I used @cursor_ai as the IDE and alternated between @grok and Claude Sonnet to build out the code
