I don't really know much about it, but I saw Peter Molyneux is making an NFT game and judging by his rubbish recent projects that's all I need to know to decide they're shit.
In game items have a sort of value. They've been sold for real money, the D3 real-money auction house was Blizzard trying to control the 3rd party sales that were happening for D2 items.
So, all an NFT would add to game items is the ability for them to "exist" outside the game. If the game servers closed it's possible for another game to allow these NFTs into the new game, but I'd say that can only work against them. You might have overpowered players starting with all the best gear or even just a player who has more stock to sell than even the developers do so they can undercut the item mall prices.
Plus, I don't believe much is stored in the NFT itself? It's just a link, isn't it? Devs would still have to pay someone to make a replacement model of the sword in game.
I dunno, it just doesn't sound like something that works.
