Meanwhile Epic Games says, "Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, and your blockchain NFT's".
Nope. Sweeney also released a statement of similar nature.
Nice FUD attempt with no basis though. Its a blind copy of the article but he said something else entirely. But ofcourse that doesn't generate clicks or comments for the site. Just look at it again, read it carefully.
What Sweeney said about it:
"Epic Games Store will welcome games that make use of blockchain tech
provided they follow the relevant laws, disclose their terms, and are age-rated by an appropriate group. Though Epic's not using crypto in our games, we welcome innovation in the areas of technology and finance."
Name one NFT that ticks these boxes. Just one
Also, note Epic's saying 'we're not using crypto in our games'. Put differently, Sweeney/EGS is in wait and see mode. Is that very different than what Valve is doing now? The fact really is that Valve let it happen and THEN takes action. It shines light on how both companies curate their content. EGS has a different policy there, as you can see.
