I was really looking forward to this game, but I just can't support games that are moving towards this trend.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 is getting NFTs, including one that lets you become an in-game ‘metahuman’ - The Verge

Why can't we just have games be games? Whatever happened to that? So many games are already becoming like a second job where it's about the grind and chasing things that have monetary value instead of just an experience that's fun and immersive, and pushes the boundaries of artistic creativity. 

Ubisoft advertised their "Quartz" system as a way to make players stakeholders in their games, and I do NOT like that idea! I don't want real life economical elements seeping into my games. I just want games to be games! I wanna escape from all that stuff. That's the whole point of video games, escapism. It now just feels like I'm trying to avoid business scheme traps.
