Developer Eve Online is riling up fans with the announcement that their new game will be blockchain-based

“There is still time. You can still put it back and pretend it never happened. please None of us want this crypto slop, this desperate cash grab, this attempt to ‘create something great’, this game where buzzwords seem more important than gameplay,” one player wrote on the game’s subreddit.

A tweet announcing the game was celebrated by some crypto supporters, but drew some critical responses from players. One wrote: “Releasing a blockchain game a year after the weird hype about that technology died, so now you have a crappy concept and you’re not even getting paid for it. Let’s see how it turns out :)”
