a database entry where? on a Microsoft or EA server that they shut down after 5 years?
that's all it is to begin with, a database entry, albeit a distributed one that probably wont go away.
if a game developer rejects a communities investment, another developer can hop in and add support from assets from other games.
imagine a dnd character that you can create once, is hosted and persists forever, and that you can load into any game.
- Barrin92 5y agoyou didn't address my points. If the game is open, I don't need an NFT, I just need a scoresheet to take my dnd characters everywhere, there's no need to cryptographically own it. In fact that's what I've been doing with RP characters for ages. I already have a database, it's a Google Doc and on my drive. Simple note-taking doesn't require distributed storage. And no other developer can pick up games that are proprietary because the NFT doesn't confer ownership over the games assets or grant you access to the code.
