Just a friendly reminder, as sarcastic as it sounds with the “good job internet”, this article is sincerely praising how people across the internet made many game studios and publishers reconsider and avoid using NFTs in games, comparing it to how internet buzz brought legislative attention to loot boxes in games.
PC Gamer is anti NFT. That headline is not sarcastic, it’s actual praise.
Oh good, I was worried!
(also being genuine here)
“You’re welcome”
Why is there am entire community against tokenized items? You nerds just love not owning anything?.. Go back to reddit
A game is made up of a lot of assets. Art, scripts and so on. When you buy a game, all those files exist on your SSD for your personal use and consumption. Personally, I’m not sure why I’d need a token to validate any of that and any of the proposed systems only seem to open more lanes to get money out of my wallet and never to affirm my ability to enjoy my original purchase.
Anything on steam ubiaoft blizzard etc is NOT your game. What is your point? NTFS solve online verification systems perfectly and NOBODY could take your game away.
Just what is the difference if I have an NFT vs an entry on a Steam database? I’m still going to have to count on someone maintaining a server with the assets I supposedly own and caring that I have a token for those assets. Honestly it’s just slower and scammier.

Its not even a receipt, its a link embedded in the blockchain that leads to an image hosted on someone’s server somewhere. You paid for a hyperlink to a monkey picture.
That was literally the idea.
