"Why do I need this service?

The way EOS works is that new accounts can only be created by someone with an existing account. If you have a friend who has an EOS account, you can ask him to create one for you. If you don't, this website can be your friend for a small fee."

"How much does it cost?

The cost of one EOS account is currently USD 8.27 when paid with cryptocurrencies, USD 10.14 when paid with credit card and 0.9 EOS when paid with EOS. Included in the price are 0.2 staked EOS that will be transferred to your control and 4 KB of RAM."

Stellar nodes are hand-picked. It's a permissioned chain with public access really.
It also has very primitive smart contracts, you can't directly do things like create a smart contract for debt that uses another token as collateral.

It's clear the range of possibilities was based on bitcoin's script language.

that makes loom tokens only a way to pay for the equivalent of hosting. They are all sidechains so eth is almost certainly going to be used as the in-game currency.
It should be worth more than EOS though due to lack of ECAF bullshit lol. So you may be right, I will think about buying them.

Loom has much lower barriers to entry than EOS. An average user doesn't need anything, no eth account, no metamask. You need scatter and an eos account to play eosknights. Screenshot is from a youtube video about EOS knights... funny.

I actually went to look how the play looks like on youtube (as I don't have an eos account).
It looks pretty boring desu but the funniest part are two main comments under the video (pic). It's almost verbatim the marketing spiel of eosfags against ethereum. Hilarious how far eos reality from hype turned out to be.
EOS is dead in the water.
