No, you want propaganda. A reporter’s job is not to state the “benefits of NFTs.” Their job is to report the truth. And the truth of the matter is, there are no uses for NFTs that are not better handled than the way things are.

“One of the biggest things that NFT’s are great for are online digital contracts”

If Fortnite wanted you to be able to resell skins, you’d be able to resell skins. As you pointed out, Steam has done this for quite some time, and done so without NFTs.

“This is a reductionist argument that doesn’t take into account the benefits of NFTs”

“just like how when cloud servers first started, it doesn’t do anything that monolithic servers can’t already do.”

Everytime someone starts whining about this, they never explain what those things that NFTs can actually be used for are, and how they’re better than existing methods.

Lots of games that have ended up being good have come out of extremely tumultuous development cycles. 

And by “doesn’t agree with you,” you mean, “didn’t believe you deserve to exist.”

What beliefs, exactly

Mastodon.

I’m not getting what you’re trying to pearl clutch at. Yes, anti-vaxxers can be the ones behind the unnecessary and expensive recall, and yes, he can have done something shitty here.

I’m pretty sure that was exactly what they said. They like working in an office (as do I), but it’s shitty to mandate it.

Popehat’s Rule of Goats applies: Even if you’re fucking goats ironically, you’re still fucking goats.

And yet, it always does. There is no example whatsoever of NFTs adding to gameplay.

So now instead of playing a game for fun, it turns into work, where you have to buy the card you need to win. This is on top of all the other, normal arguments about NFTs, namely that there is absolutely nothing that a Blockchain does here that couldn't be done better and more efficiently through normal means

I’m feeling kind of the same way. The Forest Temple boss really encapsulated that for me. When the camera and lock on system are the reason I can’t hit the boss’s weak point, either because I can’t see that I’m not next to the weak point, or I can’t see that I am next to the weak point, or because the system randomly…

I’ve never really played a Souls-like, but it seems like the thing that really makes them hard is that, if you get hit, you’re going to take huge amounts of damage, so you can’t really get hit more than once or twice by anything. Does that seem accurate?

No, fuck that whole thing. Their “views” are that trans people don’t deserve to exist.

What, exactly, are the “possible future health ramifications” of puberty blockers?

Sparse, cinematic UI is just fine. However, one of the issues I’ve seen come up about the Elden Ring UI is that nothing is explained. And while over-tutorializing things is definitely a problem, assuming that everyone knows exactly what everything means right off the bat is too. In ages past, this kind of thing could…
