Recently I have been farming NFTs on a game called Immersys which has a better earn rate than Alien Worlds. Immersys is a free to play, play to earn game that allows you to earn NFTs by gathering plants, fishing, fighting bosses, mining metal, or chopping trees. These NFTs can then be burned into the game’s currency called FATE. These FATE tokens can be used to buy items, stake, or be converted into WAX.
In my honest opinion, it is better to start with nothing in this game. The starting material you can farm is hemp which requires no tools. You do not need to buy anything or invest anything to collect the hemp NFTs. All that is needed is to gather from as many bushes as you can. The current extraction amount for each hemp NFT is 53.19 FATE, which is almost the same amount as copper (54.85) or tin (53.36). This is very profitable since you need a NFT to collect metal, wood, or fish, but not for hemp. In an hour you can earn an equivalent of 1 WAX ($0.08) for the hemp you gather.
I collect pine wood with a brass axe which is a NFT that is used to collect tier 2 wood resources. In about an hour I can earn 16 pine wood and 1 pine cone NFTs. When all 17 NFTs are burned, about 1868.31 FATE is extracted which is 1.84 WAX ($0.15) when converted. Pine is currently the best resource to collect due to the FATE extraction rate.
Overall, this is very good for a free to play to earn game since you do not need to invest anything to start earning. You can also craft tools to with blueprints to obtain access to the other higher tier resources. It is very surprising that Alien Worlds, which earns less in an hour of gameplay, is more popular than Immersys. Alien Worlds is more simple or a clicker, but the earnings are low and slow.
