    Developer and publisher Square Enix has released a brand-new teaser trailer for their upcoming NFT project, Symbiogenesis.
    The project was teased back in November of last year. While the trailer is just a 45-second sneak peek showing a small portion of the world, the video description states that the official website for the project will be officially released on March 17, with a “Scheduled Free Mint campaign launch” to be released at that same time, also according to the teaser website’s roadmap.
    Furthermore, the description states that Symbiogenesis is narrative-unlocked NFT entertainment, with 10,000 NFT characters sporting unique designs, with various races and professions, and bust-up pictures that can be used as profile pictures, which will be released in six chapters in total.

    Much to our chagrin, it seems that even after the president of Square Enix’s recent resignation, they still seem determined to continue this project.

    No wonder they fired their CEO :lol

    I don't understand what this even is, but it sounds awful.

    Read story and unlock pictures that you can buy? Is there even gameplay? WTF.

    Anybody get the impression that even the people working on this are trying to sabotage it, what with the phoned-in teaser trailer and immediately questionable artwork?

    The questionable artwork is just the nature of nft art like this, after all, they have to make a bunch of random combinations work. Whats even more amusing though is how some of these games advertise themselves indicate there is a maximum number of people who can buy in.... I mean "play". So that actually puts it behind something like 14, as there is no limit to how many people can subscribe to 14.

    Could indeed be a sign of internal rebellion, yes.
