I went through the analysis of NFTs coming into gaming, it doesn't make sense because it will cause more losses than we are experiencing with micro-transaction. It's the use of microtransactions that's completely off it for me. There is no way I can be able to support that after getting a game for $60+.

They are selfish with all we've seen around them. I am not happy with all the negative things they've made.

I bought FIFA 22 for $59, I've nearly spent half of that purchased amount for just upgrades which is associated with micro-transactions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, seems like nfts are going to be the new form of gambling for gaming. I hate it, but it seems companies don't care about our feelings and opinions. I hope it turns out to be a bad choice for these studios. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are already doing it with some of their games irrespective of some gamers agitation against it but they have their own agenda all planned out.

Sure, I don't know of actually they are listening to the widespread downvotes for what they've chosen to implement. If they do, then it means they don't care about gamers.

There is a good possibility that it's going to turn out to bite them real hard. If they are looking for ways to get in gambling fully in games, they should figure out a more direct approach.

As in I don't see a purpose for it. It may make the studios money, but will the gamers benefit from it in any way? Like it feels like more cash grab than it is to support gamers.

Syntax Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Once GTA V added it to their online game, I kinda figured it would evolve into it's own thing where it might be a paid cash option to buy special in-game currency that only can be used for gambling. Waiting for it to be added to other games now, since if a big company adds specific aspects most kinda copy + add on more to make more $ or get more hooked onto it.

Seriously, everything that gaming companies incorporate in their games today is to their own benefits first no matter how they cover it up and make it look like they care for the gamers.

Personally, I knew that Rockstar wouldn't resist the temptation not to have it added to their games and it's not going to end there from the looks of it.

Justin11 Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Gaming into video games own 2022, we saw micro-transactions concurring 2021. I wouldn't be surprised with more disastrous features added to video games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's always about the money for all of them. I have never seen any of them lately that's not eyes glued on anything that can make more money for them.
