Nope. Listen, I’ve loved Diablo from day 1, played Hellfire, used to wake up before school to grind for runes in D2, and enjoyed D3 post auction house, but there is no way in hell I’m downloading Immortal. Yeah, I could play for free, but number of downloads is still a metric Blizzard uses; number of “potential…

But the opinions don’t run counter to my own. Like the article you didn’t read says, I really don’t know what is the right take on this. And no one has cancelled me, so far as I know. I FEEL like I’m still here.

Is there anyone involved with this thing that isn’t an alt-right d-bag?

“Black Lives Matter is Social Justice Marxism” sounds like it came from “Mad Libs to Make Libs Mad.”

i should add that the guy in the unboxing video, john alvarado, also has a very interesting social media presence

“You’re such a vereecke”

You don’t get it man.  You can also sell all this “crypto” for goods and services in the real world too!   It will become your job!   It will be like Ready Player One but somehow even worse!  UTOPIA!!! /s

That tracks. Crypto bros are the type to call women “females” and become angry if they are wearing clothing. 

Exactly. Depending on the version and how much you cheese it, it takes can take a day or two and that feels like a massive grind.  No one wants to grind for two years 

Of course. All of these schemes (NFTs, crypto games, etc) serve a single purpose - to add liquidity to a blockchain. Most blockchains have very little liquidity and lose what little they have over a pretty short time, and that stops the ‘early investors’ (aka scam operators) from cashing out.

Nah, you don’t understand. He was describing his ‘utopian’ vision of a glorious blockchain future, and even in that future there are still people rightly telling idiots that blockchain is useless. And not just online, but physically nearby enough to hear them say it.

over an hour for someone to craft a single item using crypto bullshit? I want to play a game, not work a second job.

You open up The Elder Chains Online and feel a rush of excitement. Your buddy from school has spent the last 2 years becoming a Master Blacksmith, and he has agreed to turn 10 obsidian ore into an Obsidian Battlestaff, a HUGE upgrade over the Mithril Mace you’ve been wielding for the last weeks.

I’ll keep on saying it: Literally every “revolutionary idea” the crypto crowd comes up with - short of the hilariously stupid stuff like “use Cloud’s sword in World of Warcraft!” that’s impossible because crypto bros don’t understand copyright or trademark law (to say nothing about the often technical impossibilities…

The second sentence gives us ‘Crypto Crush Saga’, which absolutely sounds like what someone would come up with if asked to name the worst game possible.

Dude’s name is vereecke, which sounds like an insult from a germanic language, and that’s how I’m using it from now on.

I just realized the end goal of cryptopia is to make the real world the same Ferengi resource grind that they grew up with in video games.

It came off as merely clueless until I got to the end. What a jackass.

Cryptobros really enjoy getting high off their own farts, don’t they.
