Because the arbitrary locking of certain cosmetic sets and their artificially inflated prices weren't bad enough. Now you have to engage with a currency system that is based solely on faith just to get access to a character's voice lines.
Can those that bought Pinhead get refunds? The PTB version and advertised version had voice lines. They then removed them? How is that what was purchased?
Ethereum is what is used to buy and store the majority of NFTs. Mining for Ethereum, as well as storing and trading it, is also very bad for the environment, as most of the energy used comes from coal power, and it consumes more energy than all of Argentina. I believe in one of the two threads about this someone cited the number that the same energy could power an American home for 602 years.
What will probably happen: It's real, and then BHVR tweets "due to blah blah overwhelming negative feedback, we have decided to blah blah cancel our NFT partnership."
overwhelming negative feedback...wait...since when do they care about that?
What will ACTUALLY happen: the game will lose a massive chunk of it's playerbase. BHVR will not care because some morons will buy the NFTs anyways.
If this is the reason the voice lines got removed and if this is the only way to get them back I'm done with the game.
Doubt most people will even quit but honestly I can't support this in any capacity but go figure this would come to light after the DLC drops so people already invest in the DLC.
Ok, can you clear something up with me? So Bradley is voice acting for the NFTs. That much is clear. Is there anything suggesting that the PTB voiceline is exclusive to the NFTs? I'm not seeing anything that explicit. Is there something that I'm missing?
I don't know if its the lack of sleep or if this is genuinely confusing. Because even after reading the article and searching up tf an NFT is, I still have no idea what it is.
So essentially - From my understanding - You pay with a cryptocurrency for a chance to be one of 10,000 people who get the voice lines or Butterball. Just saying a chance because I'm noting the use of the word "NFT DROP EVENTS".

Clown World is Our World

Currently manifesting that this entire situation is just a bad dream 🙏
A little iffy on the details, but I understand the gist of it.
That is pretty lame to say the least.
But what is etherium and what does that have to do with this? My knowledge on cryptocurrency is pretty limited.
Please let us all be collectively having a nightmare and we wake up to donkeys instead
low-key love this guys videos
Yes please.

this describes everyones feelings when reading this
The patch notes had it in that they were removed from PTB to live so I doubt there'd be a case there for false advertising
I am afraid of the accuracy of this
Thank you ^^
Oh god, I wish I never knew what NFTs where in the first place.
Are we humans really this absolutely moronic?
Yes. Yes we are. Your username is the perfect representation of the entirity of human history.
We've always been this stupid and dumb and we continue to be because some of us with more money than sense sadly has more money than sense.
If all this is true, it's just one more reason to never give a flying ######### about BHVR (E: as a company, not as individuals) going forward.
This is some BS. Disgusting.
Best case scenario: It's fake.

If this is actually true, I am done supporting this game monetarily

This is really unfortunate and gross.
I didn't think BHVR could disappoint me more than they already have, so I guess congrats on that? 😕
I guess I should say this if it isn't fake: good luck community managers/PR people.
I don't know if its the lack of sleep or if this is genuinely confusing. Because even after reading the article and searching up tf an NFT is, I still have no idea what it is.
Can some one dumb it down please? :(
also why is it bad?
Okay, did more reading.
Yeah, that's pretty bad. Really scummy.
Basically it's a way to "own" exclusive rights over Digital Content.
And since it's in DBD, a live service, they will basically allow scarcity.
It's a type of cryptocurrency.
