Square Enix and Crypto

[Shibi]

Crypto is a blight on the environment, at a time the world can't afford that damage.

It needs to be shunned, not embraced.

I mean, she is not wrong. You use the environment as an argument against NFTs, yet you all leave your PCs on all night so as to not have to requeue in a video game.

By using the word "all" your argument is instantly invalid.

I specifically focused on other problematic aspects of crypto (rampant fraud and increasing financialization of games) in my OP because I've seen far too many crypto supporters believe they can easily deflect the environmental argument.

AGREED!
This is the first time since I start playing where I'm really disappointed in Square Enix. Crypto needs to go.

NFTs are a scam, anyone who tries to tell you otherwise is part of that scam. The only reason why Crypto is allowed to gain attention is because the government bodies of the world are preparing to create centralized, fully monitored crypto currencies just like China has done. Cash can't be traced very well but the right crypto can. All crypto but centralized crypto will be illegal one day. NFTs are the worst and should hopefully become illegal. They are only used to launder money. Square Enix shouldn't touch it or even consider it. But I guess "free money" speaks volume.

Mogstation is there to support side projects within FF14
The FF14 subscription should at least (40%) be used for the Teams surrounding FF14

The fact that they are considering NFTs is dangerous. SE is one of the last companies I'm happy to throw my money at. But-- I don't want to support it through NFTs. Disgusting.

Does this mean we will have an FFXIV token in the future?
