Odaily Planet Daily News: Brendan Greene, the creator of the online battle royale shooter game PUBG, left the game's development team in 2019 and announced plans to create a new game centric metaverse called Artemis, although it is unlikely to include NFTs.
Greene recently stated in an interview with IGN that he "hasn't even considered" including NFTs, and his game studio PlayerUnkown Productions is currently developing the project.
Our concern is to get the engine to a state where we can make things in it, and as I said, for the second game, we will test our ideas, but in reality, we haven't even considered it yet. It's more about making some interesting games
Although NFTs may not appear in Greene's metaverse, he said that blockchain technology may be integrated at some point.
Blockchain is an interesting financial tool, as a layer in the digital world... Perhaps blockchain or hash charts or future iterations of this technology will be interesting, "Greene said." Ultimately, this is a digital ledger, and if we can use a digital ledger, we will find the best one and use it
He also said that the meta universe has become a "dirty word". He refuted the initiatives of other meta universe creators, saying that they have created "(intellectual property rights) foam". These foam are made by sub standard technologies, which failed to achieve hype: "I think everyone is building IP foam. If we are lucky, these foam may communicate with each other at some stage in the future, but this is not the meta universe."
