Is it NFTs, or is it what Epic have been aiming for since the peak of metaverse hype, to get the entire industry dependent on an asset store and account system where Epic takes a cut?

Yeah I don't think it's NFTs in the blockchain sense just the pyramid scheme sense and also with AI expected to handle all the between engine asset conversion.
