I was watching another vid about them (at least I hope it hasn't been linked - if so sorry) - all the way through thinking - that's SC! Then SC gets a section around 17:00

From recent chat I had thought there was one or two trying the NFT / Crypto game scams, but it seems there are a ton. I like his comment about how SC is now kinda seen as smallfry and would get far more cash nowadays ....

I think these NFT games might finally bring the regulator hammer, and the backlash could affect other projects that are not outrageously a rip off but clearly are. 🍿

Kira or JSH makes a very good point about all these NFT "games". Same as with pyramid schemes, the early adopters who sell before the bubble bursts will make bank. Everyone else will be left holding worthless assets. And the "games" which started selling first will get the most for their owners (who by the way never lose, because they never lose money, they just take commission) but as more and more enter the market it becomes more and more diluted. So those claiming billions in market cap today (which is guff anyway) will lose value the more of them there are as people buy into different scams... erm, i mean games.

The worst thing is some of them don't even have much in the way or any developed product. Its all based on dreams and fairy dust. Promises of making the best damn game ever. Doesn't stop them selling stuff for stupid prices.

Soon, Chis will be sent back to the dark satanic mills of "up North" to oversee the production (imagine Ed Wood with Frank Sidebottoms voice) of the never to be finished movie/game SQ42. Meanwhile, the real people in charge turn SC into an even bigger money maker using all of the tricks shown in the above video.
There will still be no server meshing.

Central banking needs some money sinks, too. :ROFLMAO:

The funny thing is, New World network traffic per client will be a lot lower than SC required. Most of the time its horzontal movement with clicks for interactions and clicks and button presses for combat. Compare that with flying in a 3D space where every second dozens of inputs are given by the client.

It's a nice meme, but AFAIK lumberyard is the game engine, not the backend.

The other teams at Amazon will be having a laugh at them failing to scale for launch though, it's a bit of a faux pas :)

Amazon should definitely have been better prepared for this, the queues got insane (20k person queue on some servers).

These top two comments are great

Oh yes. Star Citizen would have delivered the promised 100 star systems with full VR, a working background simulation, robust server technology, the promised Linux and MOD support, SQ42 would be on our hard drives and done all their critical path networking tech back before they even considered crowdfunding. There wouldn't have been any need for the constant selling of in game assets at outrageous prices or land claims or ridiculous subscription tiers and pay-to-win nonsense and Derek Smart would have given it his personal seal of approval on launch day back in 2014. Everything would have stood up on it's own merits from day one..if only they had gone with Azure.
