Blockchain digital assets

[Drought]

When will steam transfer to a blockchain digital asset system where we actually get full ownership of our games and can resell them ? We are in a capitalistic economy and the basic of this is ownership, meaning that you can then do what you want with your owned product, like reselling it! Robot Cache is doing this right now, should I start transferring my game purchases to that platform and leave the obsolete Steam one?

Never because it's completely pointless.

Do what you want. I prefer to watch videos about NFT scams, not be the scammed one.

Wanna know something funny? The 'resell' on the website is only getting their exclusive currency. You aren't getting anything with cash value.

You're literally just getting store credit for 'selling your games'.

It's basically a game trading platform.

But for the OP...

The blockchain won't negate the terms of the license and make games resellable. Valve is certainly not going to implement anything of the sort.

Valve has already said no to blockchain, NFTs, crypto currencies and all that kind of crap.

Go a head and start buying your games over there if you think it will benefit you. Just hope you like your system being used to mine crypto...

You aren't even selling the game. You are literally just revoking your license for some of their own cryptocurrency. Everyone else will still pay the MSRP and can't buy the 'used' game you 'sell'.

From what I'm reading, no other users can buy the games you list. It seems like you're literally just revoking your license and the website 'pays' you with their ♥♥♥♥♥♥ cryptocurrency.

So you are renting a game for real money and when you are done you get a discount to rent another game, while losing access to previous one?

Yeah, from a select amount of devs/pubs (and Green Man Gaming for some reason) that partner with them. Basically all the ones that think NFTs are still the future.

Bingo.

You can also opt-in to mine their crypto which can be used to completely buy games.

^^ This.Plenty on Valve/Steam I'd say could be different, but this certainly is not one of them.

Well seeing how Steam is treating this, I just opened an account on the other platform.
Good luck!
