It's certainly not the same, but this reminds me of the "NFTs in video games" lunacy of a few years back. Just add NFTs to your games! An ore mined in Minecraft will somehow be usable in every other game!

It's not clear at all to me why people who are playing Fortnite would want to launch a completely different game within it. Doesn't it just become the Epic Games Store at that point? Is this just a growth hack to try to bootstrap another Steam competitor after the unmitigated disaster of their last attempt?
