The first question that comes to mind is: Why would anyone want to rent an NFT? There's one major scenario I can think of, which is using an NFT as an in-game asset that is usable for the duration of the rental period. This idea is actually quite clever, but there are a few considerations.
Would the game recognize the rented NFT as your own, following the established protocol?
Should the game support this feature to allow renting? If they do, they might experience a decrease in revenue as players opt for renting instead of making permanent purchases. For instance, in shooters or card games, renting may not be practical since you need assets that have long-term value.
Lastly, in certain cases, I can understand how this could be perceived as cheating. Instead of investing hours upon hours in completing quests, one could simply purchase the necessary item to progress. In a sense, this mirrors the pay-to-play model with microtransactions, but in a different guise.
Gave it 2 stars as previous with the motivation stated above. Show Less
