I understand this may come as a shock, but the entire point of blockchains is to solve a specific detail in the original Bitcoin design - mutual agreement on the content of a distributed linearized log in the absence of any authority. For almost every application where centralization (indirect or otherwise) continues to exist, they are deeply inefficient from a technical perspective and suffer from deep usability issues from a user perspective. So you end up with the majority of the userbase thinking they're "doing blockchain" but their only experience of it is some centralized eBay for JPEG clone site who also happen to be managing their wallet, in order to trade tokens tied to an asset (in this case) dependent on the future viability of yet another central counterparty (the game producer). This is called snake oil.
Where is the value?
