They couldn't hide the controls, and turn on auto play on the video on the landing page... but they're gonna build an NFT platform
The first two of those win points in my book. Autoplaying video is a monstrosity.

It’s hilarious that anyone thinks this is anything other than a way to pump the stock.

#14I've never seen any compelling argument in favor of NFT. Everything points to it being pure hype with no redeeming value whatsoever, and this is no different. To wit, I don't recall reading even a single comment on HN entirely supportive of NFTs, and there's hardly ever any shortage of contrarians on most topics.

Yeah, I'd be interested in seeing a steelman for them. Pretty much everywhere you go, sentiment is nearly 100% negative. I see some value in ideas like using tokens for tickets of some sort, but that would likely use a semi-fungible token system (ERC-1155), not non-fungible tokens (ERC-721).

#17That address starts with 1337420 lol. I can't help but feel this is timed poorly though. Surely there must be some fatigue towards both gamestop and crypto.
Wouldn't that make it better timing though? Revitalize hype and stay relevant?
This isn't a direction I expected from gme but I'm interested to see where it goes

NFT is tulips all over again, basically.

#20NFTs for rare in game items that can transcend any particular game's ecosystem and be bought and sold on an open marketplace maybe? Are you Ready Player One? The future's about to get weirder.
There will be rare in-game items until Windows Update affects compatibility with the game’s Unity client and the developer is out of business.
