    Regardless of this bug… this part is completely insane:

    As I write this, its most expensive champion is listed at $256,570,000.

        Listed didn’t mean anything unless it’s bought though, right?

          It does tell something about the company selling them.

            The sellers are players. Of course people are going to troll by creating such offers. Doesn’t mean anything.

              Oh, I thought they’re ubisoft offerings and not users reselling.

                I thought the point of the nft games was to be able to trade everything between players?

                The article has a store link, but I have no idea what any of the stuff on there actually means.

        I honestly can’t tell these apart between a $200k one and a $10 one. They’re all just different outputs from the same prompt

          You’re paying for the better seed, obviously. Do you think random numbers come for free?

        all of those look like they’re made with heroforge https://www.heroforge.com/ - or similar.

        At least with heroforge you actually get a physical miniature

        (edit: to be clear: no nft’s at heroforge, they just print miniatures, which you build/design with their site. that’s all)

      Why is it insane? Is it surprising that people make joke offers? Joke offers exist on any online auction site.

    Why do people play those things. It’s clearly just a test how dumb we all are, and we’re seemingly failing it. People do play it. Things like that should net a total global sales of 3 or 4 and then be taken down a few days after release. But no.

    I want 80s gaming back, with modern tech and stuff.

      I feel you. I pretty much exclusively play 80s and 90s games.

      You want some fun that is modern, somehow ancient, and beautiful? Oh, and challenging, but if you persist it is very rewarding?

      Cuphead. I fucking love that game. I play it and replay it and play it some more. I have waaaaaay too many hours in that game on Steam and on Switch. I think it’s the only game I ever got all achievements on.

        I want all that, minus “challenging” :-) Those times are over for me. There are tooooooo many games I like and I don’t wanna waste it anymore with trying to git-gud for weeks. I got lazy over the years and now seek different stuff.

        Sadly the 80s and 90s games i have so fond memories of, I couldn’t bear to play nowadays. It’s like some dream-cars of mine which i would never actually drive because I’m also a nerd and love the tech-gimmicks. And I don’t wanna manually roll down a window. Same with games. Good for you you still love them, that would be awesome :-) Only game I ever actually 100%ed (willingly) was Witcher3. Damn, I’m totally not the gamer i was 3 or 4 decades ago :-)

          A CRT for gaming allows for the least amount of input lag. Not only that but playing retro games on a CRT just feels right.

            Oh boy, i was so happy when the first lcd surfaced. No more 2-people-to-carry and radiation of my eyes. No amount of nostalgia (i started with green monitors) will ever make me go back 😁

    Its characters cost as much as $63,000 in cryptocurrency, despite the fact that I’m not entirely sure what you can do with them once you own them

    My guess: what cryptocurrency was originally invented for; money laundering.

    That’s okay, you can drop any pretense of trying to actually make a game around your crypto scam.

    Congrats for banning two innocent customers for “security reasons” (apparently code for “your own incompetence”), that’s definitely the kind of thing you need to make your victims customers trust your shady bullshit.
