Streamer Guy “Dr. Disrespect” Beahm has criticized individuals against blockchain-based games on social media and expressed his wish to see NFTs in gaming.
This past Sunday, the frequently provocative streamer posted his opinions on Twitter to generate interest in NFT products in video games. He emphasized that players might up the stakes in extraction-based shooters by finding expensive objects.
The streamer tweeted, “Imagine trying to ‘extract’ with an item you find for $100,000 on the chain. Consider the enjoyment value of watching rather than playing.
Beahm has a stake in seeing a change from the current unfavorable perception of NFTs in gaming to a more favorable one. The streamer developer just established Midnight Society, a firm working on the blockchain-based shooter Deadrop.
NFTs will be used in the future extraction shooter for skins and other things. The purchase of a “Founders Pass” NFT also guarantees that participants will receive a special call sign. Later this month, a sneak peek reveal of the game will happen.
Dr. Disrespect said, “The idea of digital collectibles in an online game thrills me. “In particular, an extraction-style game. Those who say “ugh” and “scam” are simply headline follows. They are the same individuals who shell out a lot of money for skins for a game with a yearly release. Same skin that everyone else has.
Imagine trying to ‘extract’ with an item you discovered worth $100,000 on the chain.
Think about entertainment value as a viewer let alone player.
A new pvp experience is upon us…

Non-fungible tokens have been widely criticized and have not been adopted by players in popular gaming. Quartz, an NFT-tied item system that debuted with various “unique” serial-coded objects for the troubled shooter Ghost Recon Breakpoint, was an attempt by Ubisoft to use blockchain technology.
The business then described Quartz as only “research” and “testing the ground” after receiving much criticism online and failing to sell.
Following substantial criticism, Ubisoft said that its future combat arena game, Project Q, will not use NFTs. Nevertheless, the game has since been scrapped.
NFTs’ detractors point to the technology’s marketplaces’ propensity for scams, the volatility of cryptocurrency prices, and the significant environmental impact of blockchain systems. Several people also dispute the necessity of the technology to implement many of the advantages that its backers emphasize.
