Remember when NFTs sold for millions of dollars? 95% of the digital collectibles are now probably worthless.::NFTs had a huge bull run two years ago, with billions of dollars per month in trading volume, but now most have crashed to zero, a study found.

    I don’t disagree, there is a lot of shady shit going on, but the state of gaming is what you’re describing. I’m having a lot of fun with BF2042, but it’s a live service game with servers provided by EA. It will get shut down, which is retarded, but I’m still enjoying it while I can.

    There are of course exceptions, like Baldur’s Gate, but overall, not a good vibe unfortunately

      For all my criticism, I do enjoy some live service games too, but I’m of the opinion that any live service game would have been better off without those conditioning tactics, without a balance marred by Pay2Win and power creep, and if it was hostable by any player. Not all them are fundamentally bad, but they are made worse by these elements.

      But unfortunately, games keep being made that way because it’s more profitable.
