> or a game based on chess. Not a game based on chess, THE chess. A game engaging enough that the whole UI/UX can be just added or replaced. Think GNU chess, but with an argument that takes a magnet link for background.png. I think that is kinds of games that "NFT as game assets" idea is targeting. Not a modern game at all.

I mean, I could have said that NFT believers' mental model of a game is so removed from computer games IRL, AAA and gacha and mobile and all kinds of games, that those concepts make basically 0.0E-16 sense or in case it make sense the point those paths cross is few decades away. Basically that's my thinking. But isn't that too dismissive?
