First Impressions of Deadrop

When Dr Disrespect teased his NFT shooter game, Deadrop, fans were buzzing with anticipation. But the initial reaction? Let’s just say it’s as mixed as a box of assorted chocolates—some are yelling ‘Yum!’ while others are throwing them against the wall. Many were baffled at the game’s graphical quality, likening it to playing at a Chuck E. Cheese arcade. Jonesy_Actual didn’t hold back, referring to the game’s visuals as akin to a child’s play test! Meanwhile, others saw an opportunity to lay down some ‘influencer’ sarcasm, with MemeCyptum questioning the hype with, “Dr Disrespect tried making an NFT shooter and it looks like ass? I’m shocked!”

What’s Behind the Hype?

Still, it’s critical to remember that Deadrop is in its infancy, and just because it currently resembles a glorified shooting gallery doesn’t mean it’s Tom and Jerry’s forever. Supporters urge patience, pointing out that anyone who has followed game development knows that the process can be akin to waiting for a pot to boil. Fan L1GHTNING96 aptly noted, “Just hating on the game for the sake of it clearly,” defending the transparency of the development process.

The Studio That Dr Disrespect Built

Speaking of the man, Dr Disrespect’s foray into the NFT universe is anchored by his new studio, Midnight Society. The studio has partnered with Polygon Studios to dish out some serious NFTs, and recently, they sold out their 10,000 Founders Pass Tokens that function both as entry tickets to Deadrop and offer early access along with voting rights! For $50 a pop, these NFTs also offer that sweet digital ownership vibe, something in-game fans have been clamoring for!

Shiba Eternity and Other NFT Projects on the Horizon

If the NFT world were a bustling bazaar, the Shiba Inu team is strutting in with a new game! Announced as Shiba Eternity, this mobile NFT game partners with PlaySide Studios and promises two flavors: a free-to-play version and an NFT-centric play-to-earn version. Talk about options, am I right? Feeling both pumped and curious, Shiba fans can’t wait to get their hands on it!

Barcelona Scores Big with NFTs

Meanwhile, not wanting to be outdone in the NFT game, Spanish soccer powerhouse FC Barcelona sold a piece of NFT artwork featuring the legendary Johan Cruyff for a whopping $693,000! This isn’t just a static image; it’s an experience, complete with soundtracks and visual effects that had a team of 40 artists sweating bullets. Seriously though, can someone get me that NFT owner’s contact for the next party? Exclusive access to VIP events sounds like my kind of fun.
