Yes!!! Absolutely.
Major games that have added NFTs have so far have been a complete failure. Ubisoft and Ghost Recon are the perfect example of that. It won’t stay this way forever though. Eventually some game is going to do it in a way that draws everyone’s attention. Already we have Epic Games paying creators who create popular Fortnite maps with the new Unreal Editor. We are on our way to a new evolution of gaming. Combine these ideas with more advanced VR and we are really in for a treat.
But I think in this scenario, big business would be providing the ads in this fashion (which are incredibly consumer friendly and hardly intrusive), while the gamers are making little bits, which is fine, even great. In this case though Polyphony Digital and Sony would probably see that money as being theirs. Yet the percentage going to the gamers for choosing to advertise in this fashion would most likely go straight to purchasing more Sony products.
If someone in this crypto world of ours wanted to start from scratch and build a game of that caliber (nearly impossible feat), then offer these money making perks, what we'd see is some big hype campaign and a push to purchase tokens and packs and other junk of some kind, before the actual game is being developed, resulting in people buying another line of BS and broken promises, along with yet another reason to add to the long list of reasons why the general populace runs from the idea.
So much potential yet so poorly executed, almost every damn time.
Polyphony is pretty greedy with their microtransactions, so I imagine they wouldn't be quick to pay their creators much. I've never paid for in-game currency for GT7, but that also means that there are many cars that I will never obtain. I've played 70+ hours and have never had more than $3 million at once. There are dozens of cars that cost upwards of $20 million.
You're right though, it's nearly an impossible feat to ever create something from scratch that even comes close to comparing to GT7. They just have way too much money and experience to really compete with, at least for now. The way they see it, they're already making great money so no need to innovate. Once it becomes clear they will be able to bank even more, then that's when some of these new ideas will start to come to life Who knows, will probably be many years down the road. It's fun to fantasize about it though. I look forward to our youth's potential future. There will be even more opportunities than there is in 2023.
Someone would have to come along, offering a better deal to consumers, snatching their market, then they'd decide to "innovate".
I do enjoy thinking about it. I think that's what keeps me grounded in reality rather than throwing my money at every little thing that says it'll do something, eventually.
