When I was looking at the art, which isn't bad, I wondered why there was no variety in the creatures. Like if you took Pokemon and based every single creature on jiggly puff, for example. Then it hit me; this is an NFT game. Surprisingly it doesn't look completely awful, but the fact that they put no effort in making variety is telling in itself. It being a "game" really is just a front to trade money. It only invaded our industry to try and trick as many people as they could into getting scammed, that's it.
@dakat51312 жыл бұрын
Games like these are supposedly supposed to show games can be made with the technology. But they just show that people using this technology aren't trying very hard, because they don't care whether the proof of concept goes anywhere or inspires anything, they don't care about the art, they just need a thin cover for making money and since they don't know or care anything about gaming it just becomes obvious what it is and a weird laughable attempt. One hallmark of these operations is how consistent the icons are, because it's convenient to generate a ton of them from only a small handful of parts. The underlying token is what the people using it care about after all.

@EJ Red - You know what they say about “a fool and his money”. When I was in the Navy on shore leave, I witnessed a fellow sailor fresh off the ship drop his entire paycheck on a game of Three Card Monte. He seemed so surprised when he lost everything. I imagine he had to go back to the ship since he couldn’t afford shore leave.

My favorite part is the cryptobro crowd saying, "eh, it's not that bad, it could be worse" and "it happens to everyone, it's safe to put more money into it". The delusion is funny, but also the fact that if you were to take the "review" checklist for games (i.e. graphics, music, story, gameplay, etc) and replaced it all with a single checkbox that says "crypto?" that would be them exactly.

You know exactly who bought what-" and all this other fancy jargen that gets tossed out that you would think it should be a touch easy to be able to track such thefts. But I guess it is much easier to find the person who right clicks or presses "Print Screen." And as what was pointed out, you would think if you have "Hundreds of Millions" up for grabs, you would probably want to keep that under lock and key. Yeah, hackers can find ways around that, but they apparently had a much easier time grabbing what they wanted here. Overall, this continues to be something that cause as many people to steer away. Could be the future, but right now, it continues to look like a scammer's paradise.
