Because it requires a level of understanding of complex systems and their flaws that is basically incompatible with being a functional human being. If you understand crypto well enough to know it's stupid you're one of the following 1. Noxious pedant 2. Unbearable cynic 3. Doomed far left agitator 4. Terminally online everposter 5. Pedantic cynical terminally online leftist

The value proposition of NFTs in games is "what is we made horse armor dlc, but we can't leverage economies of scale to make our money back?" Literally only sustainable in a landscape where people are paying 5 figures for it.

Any game that uses NFTs would be better without using NFTs. If this were such a killer concept it would have already been done, because it's both simpler to implement and has more longevity if they store it in a database or any traditional data store. These companies see "we could be the next MTG" without looking at why they won't be.

interwhat posted:Why the gently caress do I not know a single person that thinks crypto is stupid? Everyone I know thinks it's stupid. They either think it's stupid and make fun of it, or they think it's stupid but wonder how they can make some quick cash off of it. There's only two guys I went to highschool with who are legitimately into it. Both are serial grifters and will take any opportunity to exploit weird trends and make money off of others. One is heavily involved in legal sports gambling, and the other used to collect beanie babies and star wars figures in the late 90s.

I would be surprised if Star Citizen doesn't get into NFTs at some point. I'm certain there's already backers on the forums demanding it. PhazonLink posted:I'm pretty sure chracters/drivers in Mario Kart have always had a meta thats either extreme of light or heavy classes ?? With recent games adding some slight variety with the karts themselves? It depends on the game, though Mario Kart 8 was definitely better for heavy characters until they introduced 200cc mode that's deliberately too fast for many to handle. You have to actually use the breaks! Of course in practice this entire idea is literally just pay2win through an absurdly overcomplicated system.

Ah, but you see, salt is smart, and surely won't be the one left holding the bag when the market for hideously ugly randomly generated monkeys (which is completely real and not the result of a handful of people trading the same things back and forth to make it look like there's more activity than there really is) crashes.

the axie infinity games-as-an-NFT bullshit reminds me a lot of ancient bitcoin thread hero Logansryche, who ran a dog shelter in second life and was constantly begging for donations within second life to be able to pay for second life dog food to keep the second life dogs alive - he claimed that if they werent fed, they would die, and got quite emotional about it like imagine that stupid bloomberg article about mariokart except you have to pay crypto for fuel and maintenance on your kart or else you cant play

Khorne posted:After the great success of the Diablo 3 Real Money Auction House & any game that offers a way to turn currency into real money, I can't wait to get paid 5 cents per hour for my gaming. I can't wait to be gated out of content unless I open my wallet!! And like any other game ever that promises to import data from the previous, it will either never happen or happen so long after you care that it might as well have not happened. no, you forget. you're making 5 cents an hour, transaction fees are $100, and it's around $10k to buy enough stuff to even play the game! also everyone else loses money and approximately 3 people who play who are coincidentally the development staff, happen to make around 50k an hour. trickle down economics! I love making money off crypto, my automation business that trades crypto for profits is massively successful at constantly taking in profits (and exiting positions) but I can't wait for bear market in December to really crush the idiots that will be snagged into poo poo the same way as squid. But do I believe in Bitcoin? absolutely not. If you folks in here want some popcorn look up a rebranded shitcoin called SOV (sovereign) a shitcoin that basically lives on saying "we're not btc" and also claims to be the first to enable btc defi (it isn't) and also has problems with turning Bitcoin into their own sov "rBTC" and unsurprisingly turning the rBTC back into btc is also an issue that doesn't always work. Plus some weird El Salvador promise that may be pure grifting/turn into nothing. But hey, amazing! My total level of trust in it is: I put 8 bucks into it and will prob forget I have it. The hyperlibertarian shitlords loving love this shitcoin, and I don't. You'll find the whole gamut of hosed up tropes with it.

This is definitely a dumb thing to complain about and maybe I'm an old man yelling at clouds, but I'm so loving upset about how some of my favourite content creators are slowly but surely being lured into the crypto poo poo. The one I'm most disappointed by is Phil DeFranco because he's now shilling some Bitcoin BS as he also reports on climate destruction. It just sucks.
