MTX's have evolved lol.. reminds me of people 'investing' in Kickstarter campaigns to have their identity put into games in the upper tiers. Or people buying unique ships etc in StarCitizen for hundreds or thousands of dollars xD Fools and their money.

On one hand idc if its a standard npc with no worth and you may never see, on the other If i start seeing the same damn person name/mug over and over again in every game, OOOff fuck that and those games with NFT lol.

NFTs aren't really like that though. It's nothing but a note saying who owns a piece of digital content. The actual content can still be copied and used everywhere regardless. It has about as much value as someone selling you a star (name your own star).

The only difference is that, instead of the publisher holding the data "you bought X", the "you bought X" is added to BlockChain. A decentralized tamper proof registry. It has nothing to do with the game, or the actual item, just proof of purchase.

Besides it being useless, it's also killing the planet.
