NFT's in games

Not just that. Don’t even need to make sure it’s fully playable or even a complete game! Just add this, remove that, change those with a patch.

When you can sell an incomplete product, sell the other parts, and then change anything at will… what incentive do they have to put out 100% for $60 or $15/mo. when we’ll buy 25% for $60 and then $9.99 10 times?

Even better when they decide to just erase what you’ve paid for so you can pay for more stuff… looking at you Destiny Content Vault

Sure, but as the owner of the NFT, you don’t own the copyright. The copyright holder remains the artist who created it.

So you can’t issue a take down notice if I take your NFT and repost it elsewhere. Only the original artist can issue such a takedown notice.

It’s not at all like you said here :

No one would have to obey your take down notices as you can’t issue them in the first place just by owning an NFT.

This is worse than buying a ‘digital’ movie or book. IF you don’t have a device to run it on… it’s gone. Why do people not think about this. If you have a wallet or ‘gee forbid’… a ‘digital pet rock’… why do people think they can own a ‘digital file’? that can just disappear?
DVD, CD, Vinyl… or… let’s go further… the only property you came in with… your body. That is yours… think about it.

now that we know high end art is mostly used for laundering i think it’s safe to say NFT is just the digital version of that.

you just buy the link too the image, which is just you paying for a receipt that says you own nothing but paid to brag about an digitally replicated image. so ya, its definitely best not to buy em.

Not even art tbh…

Imagine you want to buy the Brooklyn Bridge.

So some guy in a trench coat comes up to you in a dark alley knowing you want to buy the Brooklyn Bridge, you pay him several thousand dollars and he gives you a postcard of the Brooklyn Bridge and on the back it says you own the Brooklyn bridge.

You didn’t actually buy the Brooklyn Bridge, you bought a several thousand dollar postcard that says you own the Brooklyn bridge.

People who buy NFTs are buying a receipt.

Imagine buying a receipt that you bought groceries but not the actual groceries.

It’s a scam.

but the blockchain lets you prove that your receipt is the original receipt!!! :roll_eyes:

Yes, they are.

Not to me it isn’t :rofl:

I could attach a paper receipt to a chain attached to an actual block and get the same result without the adverse environmental impacts. And as a bonus if anyone contests my ownership I can hit them with the block.

a weird scam that people wanna buy ugly images thats randomly mixed together not by the person who made it, but some computer program i believe.

At least those items physically exist. This scam doesn’t even offer that, and people are buying it.

P.T. Barnum is constantly proven right when he said a sucker is born every minute.

You think its funny to take screenshots of people’s NFTs, huh? Property theft is a joke to you? I’ll have you know that the blockchain doesn’t lie. I own it. Even if you save it, it’s my property. You are mad that you don’t own the art I own.

Delete that screenshot.

I hear a shot clears that right up.:smiley:

they are.

no one in their right mind will pay money to right click save as. but instead you have an entire new industry coming out of the woodwork treating it like a stock market.

nft’s sound cool, almost Cyberpunk-y to an extent. But I’m not touching this garbage with a 10 foot pole until it gets regulated.

And knowing how incompetently slow the process is, I won’t hold my breath.

I mean you are correct, yet the other aspect is it’s a physical item. Which is far more significant over a digital version, that simply can be copied far easier, and means it’s value is little to nothing.

It is amusing though how a lot of the art world and diamond economy works.
