The problem with current proposals/implementations of NFTs in games is that they offer nothing new. Paying for skins and other ingame content is nothing new, and the fact that it's on a blockchain doesn't change anything. Also, if the game company goes down, your NFT is useless, so it's hardly a token of ownership.

- bobthepanda 5y agono, but it's not a demonstrable improvement in the space either, so why bother?
- redisman 5y agoNo but at least in games it has some use until the game goes down. The rest of NFTs are just “buy your own plot of land on mars” type purchase
- noneeeed 5y agoThankyou, I've been trying to come up with an analogy for the pointlessness of the current NFTs, I think the buying land on mars, or "buying" a star might be the one I was looking for.
- fknorangesite 5y ago> your NFT is useless, so it's hardly a token of ownership. Indeed, it is what it always was: merely a token.
