What use outside of microtransactions would there be anyway?
Actually owning games, skins, guns, etc and being able to use them across games
Also resale
The vast majority of companies out there would absolutely not support you actually owning a game or anything you buy in a game. They dont do it now, so why would they ever?
Even if blockchain was implemented, it would be implemented in a way the keeps the current status quo. Stuff would still be licensed and not yours.
Its very naive to expect otherwise.
Oh, so you have no idea how games work
Blockchain only works if you completely ignore how anything works.
