Asmongold hits back at Dr Disrespect calling NFT game critics \u201cbrain dead\u201d Asmongold\/Dr DisrespectTwitch star Asmongold hit back at Dr Disrespect labeling critics of NFTs in games as \u201cbrain dead,\u201d suggesting that cheaters could run rampant in his DEADROP game as a result. The debate around NFTs and digital collectibles in gaming has been raging for a while now, especially as some developers are trying to place them front and center in their own games. Dr Disrespect\u2019s DEADROP title is one of those that are going down this route, as \u2018founders\u2019 will have their own unique skins once the game launches, after already having early access to the playable \u2018snapshots\u2019 of the game\u2019s progress. As a result, The Doc has been passionately defending the choice to use digital collectibles in-game, most recently bashing \u201cbrain dead headline followers\u201d who have been criticizing the blockchain technology. And now, he\u2019s got a new opponent in the form of Asmongold. Asmongold responds to Dr Disrespect over \u201cbrain dead\u201d NFT critics claim The OTK founder responded to The Two-Time\u2019s tweet during his March 7 stream on his zackrawrr channel, claiming that if people have the opportunity to take high-value items, they\u2019re just going to cheat. \u201cOkay, let me counter this. I don\u2019t think that people want to have every aspect of their gaming experience commodified to the extent that everything that they obtain and earn, and the fundamental of the game, is built around a dollar value,\u201d he said. Asmon also pointed to his own longstanding experience with World of Warcraft where players can get unique items but can\u2019t sell them on. \u201cAlso, by the way, if I was playing a game and I knew that I could kill somebody and get a $100,000 item, you know what I would do? Cheat. I would cheat,\u201d he added. The Twitch star claimed that it\u2019s \u201cjust not going to work\u201d if players are able to just make new accounts and base themselves in countries where they couldn\u2019t be punished for taking the items. It certainly is something that The Doc and his Midnight Society team will have to look into, especially as he\u2019s already talked up the idea of having items move across games.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
