They'll start switching the narrative around now to make nfts popular again, market how you can trade them cheaply compared to using Steam. But you'll never get ownership in the games or ecosystems.
I think it's fine if they just want to do NFTs and a proper marketplace. Usually ownership in the game or ecosystem comes with a token and some sort of financial support to the team.
Game studios should be free to decide if they want to go that way or not.
For sure, it's a good start to see the stigma around nfts change with games like off the grid lately. My point is all of these are funded through big money investors that'll look to maximize profit as has been the norm in gaming lately.
I don't believe very much in these old maids' ventures either. It looks like we'll always encounter unpleasant surprises along the way and, as you said, I very much doubt that the assets are 100% ours.
They can be yours, I don't doubt they'll make them fake nfts, my point is it'll only be bread crumbs of the real value. All revenue they get for the actual game goes to founders, VC's, etc, players will just get money from other players.
Ubisoft has gone from respectable developer to stitshow. There is no way their NFTs will be sustainable IMHO, but I hope it does well enough to encourage more experimentation with the idea.
People have been complaining about ubi games for a long time, I myself haven't played any of them for a long time, now this idea with the NFTs, let's see how it goes, at least it will spread a bit more about web3 in games.

Ahh yes, I understand better now. Thanks for explaining it in such detail. 👊
