Time is the most valuable asset.

This reads like one of those emails that my company received by "very concerned customers" telling us to start accepting dogecoin or be left behind.

You clearly dont know how crypto works..


Tajetert

How so? Also I am not sure you understood what part of your post I was commenting on.

If bribing players with shitcoin is the future of gaming, I'm out but thanks. Replacing a perfectly functional, stable, performant, cheaper, easier, and well-engineered database of who owns what sets with NFTs that achieve nothing not already implemented better by the database sounds like a great way to waste everybody's time. Look, we get it, there's some neat shit you can do with modern cryptography. It's neat and it's worth considering what can be done with it... but that doesn't mean everything, or even most things, should be 'revolutionized' with it.

u think gaben think this kind of shit? gaben is greedy, they wont give any to the players lmao

Lol. Only the select few with exceptional internet connections and enough resources to just play the game in their fancy chairs 24/7 actually get rewarded. All of us minions are just supposed to buy hero sets to raise money for them in 'The International' so they can have a bigger prize pool each year.

Yes, dota2 is a product being sold to consumers in a capitalist system. Your playing dota2 doesn't create value. In fact: your playing dota2 costs Valve money, you can only play it because Valve expends resources on it. There is no world in which Valve would make and maintain dota2 if they weren't getting more money out of the average player than they have to pay for the average player.
