Almost like the art is not only not the point but actually completely irrelevant isn't it?

With the huge following he has...he could potentially make a killing with NTFs.
With that said, "Your greed sickens me."
Because unless you already have a huge social media presence...it's going to be quanity over quality to make decent money with NFTs. That's why you usually see AI generated art or a simple piece that has hundreds of different palette swaps.

This guy has the thinnest skin ever so I'm interested in just what shit he's going to come back with, although I might have already missed it
I don't know much about the energy concerns regarding NFTs as I'm not read up on the current technology, where it is heading, how close we are to bringing the impact down to a reasonable
point (might already be there for all I know).
It seems to be a pretty ridiculous idea in general for images and things that can be copied and saved regardless, and seems ripe for taking advantage of gullable people.
The fact that most of the transactions move between a very small percent of the community to artificially drive up value is also scummy.
The potential to create artificial scarcity WILL be exploited. The industry already went all with MTs, lootboxes, season passes, etc... this will be a potential dream come true for them.
There might be some potentially good applications of this tech, but it seems pretty obviously ripe for a lot of bullshit too.

Not surprised voice actors are getting sucked in to the "promise" of NFTs, because Troy probably sees some future where he "owns" and controls his VA performances independent of the games he's hired to VA for, and make millions in the process. Will it work out that way? Almost certainly not.
NFTs are a big stupid internet gold rush. A few people will probably make a bunch of money, and many more will be left holding worthless electronic receipts saying they own a thing they don't actually own.
The fact that the industry itself is relentlessly pushing this NFT/metaverse bullshit all of a sudden while actual players hate it, should tell you all you need to know about who this actually benefits.

They fully know why there are some that out right hate them. They're just playing dumb because they've likely have heard the arguments and explanations why dozens of times from likely shilling the concept elsewhere because at the end of the day they have to convince others that it has value.
Yeah like, I thought quoting FDR because the game he's in was mildly criticized would be peak nonsense for Troy Baker, and yet here we are.
On the positive side i hope i won't hear this greedy cunt in video games published and developed by people with still some integrity left.... because imbeciles and other scams will provide him with an easy revenue stream and he wont have to seek any legitimate work in the industry.
What happened to people last few months? No fucking shame at all, stupidity and greed everywhere. This is so fucking depressing.

if anything, probably not much, but with the promise from the NFT grifteam that his NFTs would sell for big bucks, which he'll get a percentage of
Does no one promoting NFTs know how this stuff works? lol
I do not own the intellectual property because I purchased a jpg online.
Blockchains don't all work with the same methodology though. You can run a proof-of-stake network on a bunch of raspberry pi's. Blockchain uses so much energy because it needs to work hard and long hours to decrypt. There's no decrypting on proof-of-stake, just validating. For instance, Ethereum's switch to proof-of-stake would mean an estimated 99,95% drop in energy consumption. And Ethereum is currently the only chain running NFT's that is still on proof-of-work.
I was gonna say, all of these NFT accounts all talk like a bunch of teenagers trying to parody something instead of a company giving you a sales pitch, the way it's all written, all these spelling errors and autocorrects. It all would have been hilarious if it wasn't harmful and people woudn't fall for it.
I was on the side of Team Eyeroll when he posted this shit and waking up to see this thread makes me feel justified and correct haha.
troy seems like someone who really and truly only cares about himself
I for one, am absolutely stunned that all around piece of shit Troy Baker would do something like this. Not from the guy that shilled for Konami and caped for them not paying the original cast, including outright lying about the situation
I'll be honest here I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if ERA were to announce an "ERACOIN" or NFT Avatars or something in the next few months. It'd explain a lot about the… "protected" status of cryptobros here.
It's funny how both him and Guy Cihi showed their asses.
His choice of words clearly pre-assumes a backlash and he willingly took that on. There's no misunderstanding here and I feel sorry for the good people who have previous or current associations with him and his work.
Yeah. I still remember when he out of nowhere decided to screw Nolan North over by walking away from the streaming webseries they started together.
I'll take a look at some of these proof-of-stake you say, but right now I'll maintain my position about the blockchain energy consumption. If I'm wrong or outdated, I'll glady return here and edit my message.
This sounds like the kid that didn't read the book trying to give an explanation of it in front of class.
Spinning this is some sort of pro-artist creative endeavor instead of a profiteering scheme is coming across as disingenuous. But I guess that makes me a hater.
Loving NFTs. It has been telling me exactly who the bullshit scammers who are willing to scam their audience are, and who aren't. No guessing required.
Man, Troy is getting worse and worse.
I felt so bad for Nolan for that. He was trying so hard in that series.

But Ethereum is the "dominant" chain with NFTs running proof of work. Like, the vast majority of NFTs are minted on Ethereum, either directly or as a layer on top of it.
And their switch to proof of stake has been pushed back again, and again, and again, and again.
Until the very moment that Ethereum is ACTUALLY proof of stake, it is still the poster child for the problem with crypto.
And this isn't even going into how proof of stake is problematic in and of itself.
