I feel like I've been lied to for years into thinking Fortnite is some dumb zoomer meme game.

I mean it is but it's also a ton of fun. It has substance, it's refined, the game looks and feels good!

While I don't think mtxs can be very moral (especially in a game dominated by children) Fortnite is completely free to play, you can't buy power and the battle pass covers several months, is easy to level, and gives enough currency to pay for itself without a ton of effort.

There are still whale traps, and this became more prominent in the new racing and rock band modes who were released with little to no free cosmetics and overpriced storefront.

Fortnite is the closest thing we have to a working metaverse. I imagine that in 10 to 15 years it would look closer to Ready Player 1 than whatever Facebook is trying to cook.
