And japanese people aren't really...uh...known to voice concern to superiors, lol.

2ch and other Japanese communities are overall pretty negative about the entire thing.

Because they would be on the blockchain, and non-fungible!!!

Oh, so you think your tokens are non-fungible, do you? Let me tell you a little story about elementary school picture day and an "unbreakable" comb...

Yeah consumers ofc, what i meant are the people in the corporate structure. Nobody will go to the CEO and basically tell them that it is the most stupid idea of the century to do this and they will burn all goodwill. I mean if that would be the case something like this would have never seen the light in the first place cause it is incredible bad pr.

Japan has this "weird" culture of politeness and they are really not confrontational towards superiors. Consumer ofc but the employee not. Some reasons why they always seem so detached from reality the higher you go in the ranks. Look at nintendo for example.

Not saying Yoshi-P has no say in stuff at all i bet his opinion as the literally savior of SE is something really important but the suits will do anyways what they want in the end.

Hey guys remember when cosmetic DLC was first implemented in video games, and people argued back then that it wouldnt change the video game industry and how games were created.

Man, the deja-vu is coming back.

Remember when people were outraged at a $5 golden horse armor in Oblivion? Ya those were the days. Too bad that' didn't stick around and people are now somehow ok with $20 skins.....We should have pushed back harder back then.

At that point SE has a motivation to go against mods.

More like SE CEO sees $$$$ when they see people actually pay for mod commissions. We already know people want one-of-a-kind things.

The joys of finding ways to make back the money and then some for paying above market rates for servers.
