San Francisco, California - Some sanity has finally arrived in the bizarre landscape of Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) and crypto, as a new gaming industry survey proves that video game creators don't want the hype-train to end up in your next game.

The organizers of the Gaming Developers Conference (GDC) have released their yearly report on the state of gaming.

Perhaps surprisingly – or not, for those familiar with the digital currencies' pyramid-scheme-like ways – it shows that 70% of game developers don't want NFTs in their game studio, and 72% don't see a place for crypto as a payment option for their games.

The survey pinged 2,700 game devs. Even though a quarter of them were interested in adding NFTs and crypto as a form of payment at their studios, most developers trending against the payment mirrors what many players have already made clear. Fans' opinion even got the team behind S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 to drop their plans to include NFTs in the game.

After 2021's rush of NFT collections, scandals, and scams, it might come as a relief to hear that the industry is mostly against companies' greedy plans to slap NFTs onto everything, which have already begun being executed.

Crypto is in a slightly different boat, because you actually can buy stuff with currencies like Dogecoin – like grabbing SpaceX merch, for example.

But although the idea of cryptocurrency as a new form of payment is intriguing, the reality is that crypto is still an extremely volatile trading scene also rife with scams and scandals, like the recent hack of crypto trading hub Crypto.com.

If the majority of surveyed game devs continue to say "no thanks" to the weirdest tech trend of the past year, maybe the hype train will finally lose steam.

Plus, it's a cautionary sign when the people who actually make video games are overwhelmingly against adding NFTs and crypto to your gaming experience.
