Survey Says Developers Are Definitely Not Interested In Crypto Or NFTs

Every year, ahead of the actual Game Developers Conference, the show’s organisers run an industry survey, polling creators around the world on what’s happening and what could be happening in the games business. With 2022 promising to be a tumultuous 12 months, this year’s results are perhaps a bit more interesting than the norm.
