A few days ago Mojang Studios, the creator of the hugely popular sandbox game Minecraft, has opened up about whether NFTs will be introduced in the cube title. And if the developer totally refuses to apply them to his game, not wanting to create inequalities between players, Epic Games chief Tim Sweeney was also asked if he was against this new digital technology.. The second was more obvious.
NFT in Epic Games games? a half-hearted answer
So, an interview with Tim Sweeney, a Twitter user named DicklessRichard, expressed his opinion on NFTs. Often a sign of real progress in the field of technology, due to many scams some people do not see them very positively.
However, despite their few objections, Epic Games director says any studio can do whatever they wantand “Stores and OS developers shouldn’t interfere by imposing their views on others, we really won’t.“
However, let’s clarify a little more that he is not against NFTs in particular, and that this will not prevent the studio’s digital store from hosting games that offer this somewhat proprietary sales system. .
Fortnite x NFTs, a possible marriage? Number!
As for the studio’s Battle Royale, the president is a little less “creditor”. Indeed, if not against players buying NFT for certain games on the Epic Games Store, the question is a little more delicate and complex, at least according to their recent statements on Fortnite.
Reddit users haven’t forgotten what they’ve said before, and in fact some of the announcements dated September 2021 still came in via the bluebird social network.
If today he seems to accept NFTs, his words were indeed very different. A few months ago, especially regarding the arrival of NFTs in Fortnite. Tim Sweeney then saidWe won’t go into NFTs as the entire field is currently immersed in an intense mix of scams, dangerous technology bases and scams.“
So, players won’t be able to buy certain NFTs in Fortnite, and for those who are a bit lost, NFTs are digital items (images, videos) that you can buy and then own. Today, some are using this selling system to earn maximum money through different sites and who says max money if they are going to integrate Battle Royale means a huge loss for the publisher.
