So Fortnite is becoming Roblox...

I'm surprised that fortnite was willing to front the liability of allowing third party micro-transactions. Especially gatcha or gambling mechanics based ones. That could get fortnite as a whole banned in a few countries.

Fortnites rating is Teen and their target demographic is mostly minors. Some countries have pretty big laws on allowing gambling mechanics with minors.

Slammed!!!

Have journalists never heard of a thesaurus?

I am impressed, I dont play fortnite, but still its interesting they allowed 3erd party customizations.

Meanwhile Tim Sweeney is defending pedophilia and genAI.

GAAS is a fucking scam. Stop playing this consumer abusing trash.

Best option for non-US countries is to ban scrip currencies and illegal gambling.

If the oligarch doesn't immediately comply and starts parroting American-style "legal roleplay" polemics, put them on a wanted list and storm their yacht when it is in international waters.

No sacred cows on this, should apply to Epic, Valve or whoever.

Don't forget that while this is all happening, Tim Sweeney (Epic CEO) is actively defending child porn on X.

These games are so disgusting. Sad that kids get so addicted to them.

At least in my day they only took a few quarters from ya, unless you had skills

Pretty obvious what was going to happen when they decided to go the Roblox route. Fortnite and Roblox are both predatory slop. Quite frankly the developers (even if they are kids) releasing paid “experiences” (aka slop) are just as immoral and predatory.

Talk to your kids about not falling for scams like f2p monetization schemes.

Epic fail.

The most insane part of Steal the Brainrot having MTXs is someone can steal the thing you spent real money on, leave the lobby, and you’ll never see it again

Those in the industry know that the guy running the content in question is just using the most profitable techniques available to him.

Have the game you registered for.
