This is just execs not understanding game engines again. This was supposed to be the original concept for NFTs and it’s still a bad idea for any game with artistic merit.
Even if you get past the technical reasons of why this won’t work well, artistically, your avatar will clash with any game that’s not targeting these avatars. And I bet that any game that does target itself to look good with these avatars will look worse for it.
You can’t just take a 3d model and slap it into a game world and expect it to look good everywhere because it looked good in one environment.

You would think so, but my Mii fits in perfectly.
(Uh, hopefully it’s obvious that I’m bullshitting. I can’t believe how stupid Mii looked in various Nintendo games. It takes a special kind of leadership at Netflix not to have learned from Nintendo’s… experience.)
Yall are all misunderstanding it, it needs to be implemented when making the game, if 5 games use it, you can use the same avatar across them, the games are already designed to work and look good with readyplayer me avatars if they add them? It’s not something added after look development, it’s adecision made for the player avatars early on.
So. Like. Run around as V in World of Warcraft? That doesn’t sound like anything I’d want. And the images in the article aren’t helping.
