When integrating NFTs into game development, many platforms require developers to make concessions—adjust their creativity to fit the technical framework, resulting in complicated development processes and endless requirement changes. The outcome is a bunch of compromise solutions and additional workload.

Many projects want to break this deadlock. Instead of treating NFTs as the primary monetization entry point, it’s better to design them as a regular module within the game architecture—flexible, optional, and modular. This way, developers have more creative freedom, the integration process is smoother, and technology becomes a supporting role rather than the main focus. Although this approach seems simple, it has significant implications for the gaming ecosystem.

That's right, NFT integration is indeed a developer's nightmare now, full of tedious procedures. I really agree with the idea of modularization; finally, someone has figured it out. It's all about monetization at the expense of creativity, which is not worth it. Development freedom is the core; everything else is superficial. Thinking of those abandoned projects before, they all failed because of NFT integration. Having optional modules can really save many good game ideas. However, actual implementation is still difficult. Who will break the platform's利益? Framework optimization is worth much more than hype concepts.

To be honest, NFT integration should have been done this way a long time ago. Insisting on treating it as a savior ended up killing the game itself. --- The idea of modularity is actually about returning to common sense. Why must technology always lead creativity by the nose? --- Another bunch of projects trying to break the deadlock, but in the end, they still can't escape the confines of capital. --- This is called putting the cart before the horse. Is it okay to treat NFTs as tools, or must they be treated as a paternal figure? --- Finally, someone has spoken out—developers are caught in the middle and it's too uncomfortable. --- Sounds good, but I'm just worried that the implementation might be another story altogether. --- I'm quite interested in the modularity option. Can it truly give developers some space?

Basically, those projects from a few years ago wanted to make quick money, but now they've tasted the bitterness. --- The modular approach looks familiar to me, isn't it just a retro "plugin-based" system? The good thing is that finally someone has recognized it. --- It still depends on who can develop a product that can recoup costs first; otherwise, it's all talk. --- Is the creative space large? In the end, it's just about stealing users' wallets, haha. --- The ideal of technical sidekicks is beautiful, but the problem is that most projects never reach the implementation stage. --- Rather than changing the architecture, it's better to learn from the Thin Crust pizza approach; cutting comfortably is the real deal. --- Sounds good, but I'm more concerned whether this design can go all-in, and how to calculate the returns. --- Breaking the deadlock? Wake up, in this industry, money always talks.

To be honest, the compromise plan is really disgusting; developers' creativity is being swallowed alive by technical frameworks. I believe in the modular approach; don't make NFTs so complicated, supporting roles should just be supporting roles. Finally, someone has understood this issue; the nightmare of changing requirements should come to an end.

Honestly, NFT integration is indeed a developer's nightmare. Being led around by the platform is just disgusting. The modular approach sounds good, but I wonder what it will actually look like when implemented. Creative space > Monetization pressure, gotta give this guy a thumbs up for this ranking. I've long believed that technology shouldn't take the lead; the game itself is the core. Which projects have already done this? Looking for insider info.
