Worst NFT Game Ever? | KIRAVERSE Beta Gameplay and Review

  • Today, we'll be playing one of the most anticipated #nftgame and #crypto projects of 2022, the long awaited "Fortnite Killer", #kiraverse.
    Kiraverse is an upcoming metaverse third person shooter battle royale JPEG collection deathmatch blockchain crypto economy game made by "triple A" developer Param Labs. The other day, they opened their beta test to the public. I had a chance to give the game a try, and after spending a few hours in the game, I'm unimpressed.
    Kiraverse looks and feels like a low effort asset flip, and the version they provided us for the beta is a very incomplete product. Also, it is literally just the Lyra Unreal Engine Starter Project, except somehow even worse. We need to stop accepting unfinished games as "betas". If your game is missing all of the features that you advertise, then you can't say it's in a beta, it's not even close to done!
    Today, we also introduce the lore of the GameStop NFT marketplace. We explored another game in the past that was on this marketplace, Gods Unchained, but the volume for that game is so low on the marketplace it wasn't even worth mentioning.
    I couldn't prove that Kiraverse is an asset flip, so definitely do your own research there. However, if you do manage to find an example of the assets they have used in game on the Unreal Asset store, I'd definitely be interested in seeing that!

      It annoys the hell out of me the number of applications that require elevated privilege to run (even those from more reputable sources than NFT world), especially on Windows. That's just lazy development. "Just grab every single permission under the sun in case we'll need it", is probably on their minds. Heaven forbids that a developer has to add the permission further down the line when the need arises. Even if the developers themselves aren't shady, it's probable that there are bugs here and there that malicious hackers can exploit to gain access to customers' systems. I'm a developer myself and I wouldn't be able to sleep knowing that my software could be used to compromise someone's system.

    Hi Jauwn! First time I saw one of your videos but I wanted to know the opinion of someone about this piece of sh... that's not only an scam for players but for their workers too (Like myself)
    I worked at Param Labs for abouth 6 months as Character Artist for both Kiraverse and their "new world-changing project" Pixel to Poly (Which is basically, the "make your NFT playeable" but for any jpg image) and as you said on your video, the models were super unfinished (even for people paying) since they only give us 2 DAYS to make a full character ready for animation, a normal model takes about 60h and those guys wanted a team of 30 artist to make 444 characters a month! So they're just bad-make characters, with poor quality.
    Another point is, they aren't anything similar to a AAA game studio, more a cheap-shitty outsourcing that hired a bunch of 3rd world, low-experience workers, and paid them $500-600 a month and the worse part? They didn't paid on time, and at the end scam all artist more than 2 months of salary.
    Almost all Kiraverse fans are paybots, or people who invest in the game, as well as the matches has a lot of bots.
    They will never release a real game, it's just for publicity, and to raise funds, and then everyone will disapear (That's exactly what happened to us, scamming us and not even giving us a contract)

    Kiraverse is fascinating because it demonstrates why interoperable game NFTs are nonsense, by showing the one circumstance where developers have an incentive to support it: when they're being financed by NFT trading platforms. Developers patching their game to support new NFT collections makes no sense unless the project is a loss leader, and the point is to boost the value of the NFTs on the backing platform, or NFTs in general.

      NFT isn't even a feature. It's someone wanting your money to sell you the IDEA of owning a single URL. That's it! All NFTs were was a LINK that you didn't even own, as it was on a database, all you got was a questionable digital certificate of "ownership", it's like those "become a Lord" projects but those are at least are backed by real legal documents and a tiny plot of land where they plant a tree in your name.

    Very interesting video, I was always curious how those NFT games looked. However, I think you are waaaay too lenient with your score. This game looks like something one person made in two weeks, especially considering it's basically a starter project. Also, even if those assets are made by them, they are completely inconsistent. Everything seems randomly thrown together, with no one ever asking the question "why are we placing this here?".
    This is definitely not a beta as you said, but at most a proof of concept on how a NFT game could look like. My guess is that the devs wasted most of the money to bet on crypto, like it is usually the case.

    • @jauwn
      @jauwn  Год назад +84

      Thanks for the feedback! I agree I was a little bit lenient on the score, and I probably should've given them a little less leeway considering they're selling this as a "beta".
      But, I wanted to give the game at least some points so I could have room to take points off if I ever re-review the game.
      However, it seems that after only 1 week of the game existing, the player count has already declined to 3-6 players on average, so I doubt the game will ever see another update. The devs already made a bag off of the GME apes and they don't even want to play the game already 🤣

    Honestly, the most reasonable use case for 'use your NFTs in this game!' would be something like giving the ability to tag a wall with your NFT picture, and use the fact that it is an NFT and can be gated by collection to handle any NSFW concerns that could be associated with that.
    Anything more complicated than that is suspicious at best.
    But in that space, there is potential to use NFTs. Set them as your character's in-game phone background, put posters on the wall, that sort of thing.
    It's not anything that you couldn't do with any import-image feature in the game, but still. Untapped potential.

    9:31 "No ability to choose which drive the game downloads to so I've had to constantly clear my C drive"
    A tip for the future if you ever find yourself in a similar situation in the future - use symlinks.
    Symlinks are like shortcuts on your desktop except for programs.
    1. Find where the game is being downloaded to
    2. Pause the download and move every file to a dummy folder on whatever drive you want
    3. Create a symlink on that dummy folder
    4. Put the symlink on directory where the game is being downloaded to and name it the same way
    5. The software now thinks it's using C directory while actually using the D directory you symlinked
    I used to have 32GB C drive so I had to use this quite a lot, and it's a very great tool once you get used to it. Almost everything can be symlinked without issues, the only exceptions are system files and drivers.

    Yeah, I can maybe see the custom NFT avatars working for maybe the first ten or so, but then wait times for your avatar will become longer and longer the more they have to actually make, rig, and test, and pretending there's a reality where this becomes the Fortnite killer they're hoping it to be, wait times for your avatar will probably be months before you can even play as it, and by then you've probably become bored of waiting and just started playing Apex or Fortnite instead. This will probably lead to them rushing it to get them out faster, causing the models to all break or be poorly implemented with ridiculous hit boxes and oversights and they'll probably degrade in quality, just so they can get them made before the player gets bored and goes to a competitor.

    Still, their rage will bring you views and interaction for The Algorithm™, so that's a positive.

    This speaks more to the terrible state of the Web 3.0 space than to the achievements of Kiraverse devs, but the very fact that they made a game, even if its more of a skeleton of one, first and integrate blochain second already puts them miles ahead of almost every other title discussed in the series. In the kingdom of the blind a one eyed man is a king I guess.

      Yeah, that’s very true. But, even though they’ve delivered a game, I feel like it’s just an insult to actual gamers. Asset flips are probably the most universally hated lazy game dev trope; and there’s just no way this game isn’t one.
      Unfortunately I can’t prove for certain that it is an asset flip, despite the game’s folder containing many references to asset packs, I didn’t see any of those packs used in game, only the starter kit. If I could prove without a doubt this is 100% an asset flip I would’ve gave this game a much worse score

    On a side note, the concept might be shitty but the fact they adapted the gameboy-ish nft into wearable baby was actually really smart. Give the option to actually change the "default model" who carry the ntf and it's like a really, really well done adaptation into a playable game.

  • @vizthex
    @vizthex 10 месяцев назад +3

    since basically every NFT is a pallete swap, you'd only have to make a handful of rigs & animations and just swap out the models/textures - but i doubt the kiravese devs have any idea how to do that.
    hell, i'm pretty sure fortnite (and others) use the same rig on every skin so they can animate everything with minimal time wasting.

    • @jjpaq
      @jjpaq 4 месяца назад +1

      Lots of NFT collections also slightly change the character pose/location within the JPEG, though, so you might have to tweak texture mapping and UVs for each individual NFT even if the model is the same.
