Epic Games Store Adding Play-To-Earn NFT-Based Title

A battle royale title that goes by ‘Grit’ in the Epic Games Store has been listed as “coming soon” and is reportedly a play-to-earn game that was created in partnership with blockchain gaming company Gala Games. Critics have been slamming the title for it’s past showing, as the traditional gaming community continues to show quite a bit of disdain towards P2E and blockchain-related engagement.

Bear markets ideally shake out those who stop by solely for the money.

Short-termism is NFT's/web3's biggest disease.
