Survey Says 70% of 2,700 Game Developers Are Not Interested in NFTs

Generally speaking, these game developers are not interested in NFTs and their blockchain because they are prone to being scams involving ponzi schemes and money laundering due to the lack of regulation, not to mention being extremely bad for the environment.

An anonymous developer that took the survey spoke to VGC saying:

“Why do we need them? What benefit does it have putting these systems into our games? Who is using these things? It feels like a very small audience.

“And also, these technologies are still not using sustainable energy and are a target for money laundering. As a developer, I feel deeply uncomfortable that there is a push for these”.

However, some responses from the survey were more positive, saying that NFT will be adopted massively in the future and are good enough to sell digital goods and monetize systems.

For all their popularity, NFTs still remain a hot topic surrounding a lot of debate. As of right now, while there are NFT games from smaller crypto-focused studios, no mainstream developer has really shown how NFTs can complement gaming and how their functions can be used to truly benefit a game in a way that previous mechanics and DLC cannot (or at least in ways that don’t involve spending a large sum of money).
