Or start everybody in the tutorial area, but have a nice, obvious door off to the side that lets you skip the section. Hell, have some smarmy NPC call you a big shot for skipping the dungeon. “Oh, think you’re good enough to go out into the world already? Well, I won’t stop you.”

I mean, don’t put your tutorial in a pit next time?

Or, if you want to embrace the Souls humor, put an item on the edge of the pit and when people pick it up have the ground crumble away and knock them down into the tutorial pit. That way on ng+ you’ll know about it and can just ignore the item and walk outside if…

Nope. This is a display-ready prototype, not a mule. If you’re showing a prototype of a seriously expensive bit of kit to the public, presumably it’s hand-made. It should be perfect. Imperfections on test-bed cars? Sure.

While the stars might align, Tesla body panels never will.

Uh.... Is it also unfair to pick apart a almost 10 year old car Model S cars from Tesla now for its shoddy build quality?

Lol, no it isn’t “unfair”. Tesla showed this at a semi-public event and let people record it. How is that unfair?

Why on Earth would you even show this thing in that condition? That mirror is straight up broken. This is supposed to get people excited?

Polygon is proof of stake tied into etherium, so it still actually has pretty bad energy use. Also proof of stake still creates a lot of e-waste.

Blockchain is always a rug pull. The goal is to be the person not standing on the rug when it gets yanked.

IE: Pyramid scheme

Also a lot of the time the death of the game is tied to the death of the studio. If the studio that made this racing game had shut down the people who’d wasted their money on these NFTs would have got sweet fuck all.

It isn’t worse, it just has nothing to do with the game being based on NFT/Blockchain or not.

“I bought a link! It points to my family photographs!”
“Congratulations! I have just changed the link to send you to my extensive gallery of penis injuries.”
“But-”
“No refunds. Blockchain!” :jazz hands:

Nah it’s cool, some guy in a previous comment section said that if the NFT game goes down you can just take your assets and magic them into the next NFT game somehow.

This whole ecosystem relies on things getting more and more expensive and everyone making a profit. It just doesn’t make sense. I buy for a dollar, you buy from me for 20, then 100, 1000, and so on. There’s probably a name for that, but obviously the majority of would be buyers will quickly be priced out.

I feel like it’s rather telling that this implementation of awful nft bullshit ultimately also wraps itself in loot boxes. A scam embedded within a scam.

But most do.

Proving yet again that blockchain is incapable of preventing the $5 Wrench Attack

Articles like this have really changed my mind about NFTs. I really like them now. I used to complain about how much of a scam they are, how stupid people are for getting excited about this crap, the ridiculous nature of the various industry executives pushing for NFT integration, it was all just so insane that so…

it’s all monopoly money. this crypto currency is theoretically worth 600 million but there aren’t enough people in the world with that much money that are stupid enough to buy it. you can be a crypto millionaire on paper but you aren’t actually a millionaire until you manage to cash out and turn that crypto into USD…
