Yeah, the vision of "transferable NFT cosmetics" always struck me as ridiculous, for exactly this reason.

Even if some hypothetical NFT spec did allow a cosmetic to be fully stored in the NFT, such that a game could implement a standard API and support NFTs from different studios, what would the specs on that item be? Is the CoD rifle gonna look exactly like the Fortnite rifle so the skins can work in each? Is the Lamborghini from Forza gonna move exactly like one from Gran Turismo?

Each game has its own engine, its own balancing to worry about, you can't just blindly drag and drop assets like this, and nobody is gonna keep up with bespoke support for an arbitrary number of assets while more are minted everyday.

Definitely one of those "promises" that's just based on sounding cool, without any actual substance behind it, at least not when it comes to anything unique to NFTs.

Are we checking? This is a place to take a p*ss out of motorsports.

F1 is not the only motorsport in the world, so go ahead and post your shitposts about WEC or MotoGP or IndyCar or ralley or Polish Speedway or whatever. Even Formula E, I guess. It needs some love, too.

By the way, F2 > F1.

Rules? What rules? Stop inventing. Just don't be a douche. Lemmy.world's sporting conduct applies.
