How so? You one of those weirdos that don't understand that NFT isn't an acronym for stolen art?

@@topogigio7031 know you’re probably a troll or an “NFT bro” but eh, I’ll take the bate. Nowhere did he mention stolen art in his comment. While NFTs are primarily art driven they are more so focused on the blockchain aka having your name attached to them which is why a ton of the NFTs going around don’t care much for how ugly the art is or will go as far as to steal others art

@@topogigio7031 I am going screenshot every letter of your comment

It isn’t an acronym for stolen art, but have you heard about DeviantArt developing a whole tool to recognize if your arts been stolen? There are hundreds of artists who have had their art minted without their permission. Also, I’m a gal! But it’s not like you’d know since I didn’t specify LMAO

Bro why did you censor the word nft

@@Victor-xg6xn Oh I didn't notice that. That's a typo LMAO

Good news, in his new video he said he screwed up, didn't really understand what NFTs were at the time, and won't make the same mistake in promoting them going forward.

@@cinderleaves3949 please dont its a scam

IKR

I'm in the same position as you. I was thinking how that game looks absolutely MCU-quality, and how it would probably kill my laptop because of the sheer quality, but then I saw it's an NFT thing and I noped out of the sponsor and back to the video.

I dont get why people didn't talk about this the last video which he also talked about the game m

True :(

who tf pays for pngs like seriously its good that mikey isnt buying them tho he said he just plays like a normal person which is good but yeah nfts suck and it takes someone with zero braincells to actually want one

To be fair A: He probably has to bring it up and B: He did more or less say that aspect of the game doesn’t appeal to him at all. And he’s just in it because it looks sick

yeah, ikr

yea

Well it doesn't sound like you are forced to use them so that shouldn't be a problem Not that I even really understand what the frick an NFT is

@@paxgallery6646 Even if I don’t have to use them, the fact that the game has them makes me not want to play because of the environmental impact

He said "if it matters to you", it isn't really a key part of gameplay or your enjoyment

They also mess with the world's economy and some NFT companies steal art from small artists on the internet

It’s not like that’s anything new, but you aren’t wrong. There are other problems with them too, and frankly, I hope the whole fad dies off in a few years

@@AmberMuffin Obviously NFTs aren't the source of climate change, but they're a minor contributor to making it worse, and have no practical purpose.

@Dhruv Acharya "Non fungible" basically means "non-interchangeable". Something that's mass-produced or has a fixed value is fungible, a unique object is non-fungible. NFTs are basically virtual tokens, usually used to represent ownership of a non-fungible digital asset, such as a picture or a character in a video game. They're similar to cryptocurrency in that they're digital tokens based on blockchain technology, and sometimes very valuable, but each NFT represents a unique item rather than a particular quantity of money. NFTs are often regarded as scams, because the most popular NFTs have basically no inherent value (most are computer-generated pictures of an animal, like a monkey or lion - all the NFT gives you is a hyperlink to the picture, and membership of an online forum). At least in principle, NFTs could be used for things that actually have some sort of function, e.g. a character in a video game, like the video sponsor is promoting, though doing this isn't any better than any other secure method of tracking who owns what items/characters.

look, NFTs suck but i dont blame him. i reckon he knows the implications, but went through with it because of how much money they give. he's probably getting a few thousand dollars out of this, and i'd do that in a heartbeat. what would you do in his shoes? 5K just to pretend you support something stupid is easy money

Yes But He said That He didint Know about the nfts and on 5:20 He says About The Nfts

@@yuco27Yeah but he doesnt understand what it mean before accepting the sponsorship

@@secton8665 oh

I swear, I thought he was better. NFT's sometimes steal art from artists! I love to draw and it just makes me sad.

I agree I personally am also against nfts and it hurt me to see micheal promote them

hello Zorua, please do not screenshot my nfts 🤬🥺😔

Exactly. I'm an artist whose friends have gotten their art and animations stolen and minted as NFTs without their consent. I'm nowadays too afraid to publish my own art online because of this. I believe the environmental damage is the worst thing about NFTs, but the personal damage is also very very bad. Mike is being ignorant at best and irresponsible at worst trying to sell this stuff to his (mostly)very young fanbase..

Hey do you know what the present joke is with the crobat?

Hey everyone he didn’t realize everything about the sponsor and he apologized in the legends arceus meme review!! He said he won’t be taking any more sponsorships from them, he did his research, and he can’t take this down just because it violates the contract with them. Go watch the meme review to see for yourself!! 🙂 Mikey had good intentions

He actually didn't know about nfts

You know he said in the next episode that he didnt understand there danger and regrets it🖕

he apologized in a later aspitpiay and said he didnt understand its harm until after

That's what you get for using Dialga as a crutch

I killed gqrchomp with my floatzle via using a hydropump doging a earthquake then using another hydropump

@@kaytheshadow21 how the heck do you Dodge a earthquake you just move a few feet away from it

@@gameswithpeachcord7498 Just jump over it I think

@@gameswithpeachcord7498 I think the real question is how do you dodge Earthquake when it's 100% accurate? The only accuracy lowering moves Floatzel can learn are Double Team via TM (unlikely it was taught this) and Mud Slap via breeding (no way it was taught this). Unless another Pokemon lowered Garchomp's accuracy, this is impossible. Also, Air Balloons didn't exist in Gen 4.

Ok, so explain to me why you personally think they suck. Or are you repeating the same line Republicans are using because it's too complex for you to understand?

@@topogigio7031 its because most of them use cryptocurrency transfers, which is harming the environment. Some of them aren't as bad by using proof of stake rather than proof of work, but the main popular* ones like lazy lions or bored apes are using ethereum which is currently proof of work, meaning the infrastructure is using way more electricity. Also theres some that are selling others artwork as NFTs and the only response is "Well you should have sold yours as NFTs first."

@@thedyingmeme6 scam and destroys the environment please never support blockchain or a NFT

fun fact, nfts are unregulated and companies like illuviummm are specifically paying out the ass to keep them that way. companies that want to try and help the small guys dont spend literally millions trying to make it so they can do whatever they want without being held accountable for any gambling or scams that the industry throws at teenagers...... that they pay millions more out the ass to get influencers like logan paul and now mikey to advertise to their audience as cool and normalized. theyll never give a care about small artist. they care as much as a new york hedge fund cares about a mom and pop store.

Sadly he didn’t know but now he does and will never take something like that again

This is the 2nd time they took this deal

This really isn't right

However how does it harm the environment if it is an online which means its only on computers, consoles and phones ya'know?

@@wubbers662 because the computers use a LOT of energy which causes fumes and other sorts of gunk that essentially burns the ecosystem

@@wubbers662 Great question! NFTs are based on the “blockchain”, which is a system designed to keep people from stealing a digital item. As part of that security, they have to run lots and lots of calculations - like, an unfathomable amount. And that takes a lot of electricity - which means a lot of fossil fuels & a lot of greenhouse gasses. Does that help?

Explain without lying how NFT is theft. Go ahead. You'll never be able to.

@@topogigio7031 They can, especially in nft games. They steal character concepts and designs for players to pay hundreds or even thousands to get. Even then, right now theres a massive spread of art theft being sold as nfts with people coming up with bullcrap excuses on why its okay for them to steal it.

@@topogigio7031 how about you stop commenting on everything saying pretty much the same thing over and over, asking for an explanation and then just fully ignoring any explanation anyone gives you? Like, you’re legit asking people for an explanation and then just going like “LA LA LA LA, I CANT HEAR YOU, IM GONNA STAY STUCK IN MY STUPID BELIEFS”, also I saw you making this a political thing so just, stop doing that, this isn’t a political thing in the slightest, it’s an artist thing and an environmental thing, so maybe just shut up for once?

@@Bjix Is that supposed to be a justification? RU-vidrs can decline sponsorships and he absolutely has enough money that he could go without supporting this horrid practice.

@@ameladaptivedaydreamer949 NFT stands for Non-Fungible Token, and it's basically a piece of art that you buy, but rather than buying the art itself because it's a digital image, you just own a hyperlink to the art, and the picture itself can be saved or screenshotted by anyone. A lot of NFT art is stolen from artists and sold as an NFT without their permission. More importantly though, NFT purchases are done using a cryptocurrency called ethereum, and ethereum transactions wreak *havoc* on the environment. One ethereum transaction uses enough electricity to power an average home for about 3 days. Ethereum on average uses more power per year than Denmark and has a carbon footprint the size of Lithuania's. If you don't understand what all this means, just know this is hideously wasteful in the pursuit of profit, and it is absolutely evil. You might not know what NFTs are, but Michael is a grown man who works on the internet; he *absolutely* knows what NFTs are.

@@yobin3711 Oh... Thank you for the throughout explanation and that's truly horrid.... Idk.... I believe in Michael (not blindly) and in his shining heart. I'm sure he didn't mean to support such awful practices. Again thank you for explaining and I hope that maybe he won't take this sponsor anymore cause I know he wouldn't support something so awful with full acknowledgement. I mean I'm a grown man (23, sure not "fully grown" but almost there) that has been around the internet for a while and this is the first time I heard about this awful thing. Nonetheless I'm sure Mikey didn't know and he won't support such things anymore

... Did you just go on Bulbapedia and read their Japanese names? Oh you...

What exactly does that word mean?

@@supervegito2277 ASPITPIAY? It’s an abbreviation for At Some Point In The Past I Asked You.

@@deltarayquaza4 Oh, thanks.

Genuine question. So I looked up how NFTs use up a lot of electricity, but how does that correlate to greenhouse gas emissions? Like, electricity itself comes from a source like a powerplant, how does a digital piece of art contribute to something like that?

@@ChillDragon It isn't the art itself as much as it is the currencies used to buy it. Etherium is another large cryptocurrency that is used to trade NFTs and other things but the block chain mining required to produce new etherium is incredibly power intensive. As most sources of power in the regions they are being farmed is non renewable, the production of etherium and other cryptocurrencies causes large amounts of carbon emissions.

@@ParadoxProblems So they aren't using something like Solar Power then. And all the extensive over-production of electricity to create this cryptocurrency is resulting in harm for the envioronment, is that correct?

@@ChillDragon That is the point they are making yes, It's outrageously ignorant and inaccurate but yes that's what is being implied.

Wait Pixar does comics now?

They didn't reveal the Sword and Shield starer evolution's until after release, but I do agree, there shouldn't be new forms. I think i'll go with Rowlet or Cyndaquill, but since their old starters, this will probably be the first game where I don't have a starter on my team!

Also, the pixar mom built like a dracozolt, not like an arctozolt lol

About point number 2, several of the Hisuian Pokemon (namely Wyrdeer and Basculegion) are stated to only evolve into those forms because of Hisui's climate or similar things. But yeah, it's very unlikely we're getting alternate starter evos
