@ViolentEntity you obviously haven't played Hatoful Boyfriend
OMG It's like a crate of Lisa Frank stuff fell off the Battle Bus and exploded everywhere.
I’m virtually there. Need that cuddly cloudcruiser
No idea who she is
But hopefully it's going to be wild.
It's going to be a sad day when you ask people in years to come what was the first concert they went to and they say Ariana Grande in Fortnite.
Attended(?) today with my daughter. It was... neat but like, idk, I hope this isn't the future. Or if it is I hope there's more engagement with the actual artist. As someone mentioned on a related article, this was kinda nothing more than a cutscene you could participate in.
Edit: and $20 for a skin and that's the discounted price?! Rofl. strange times.
Just gonna say right now, Minecraft works better in a gig setting. These feel a whole lot more impersonal. Although at least everyone is guaranteed a ‘ticket’ in Fortnite.
Each to their own but personally I cannot stand Fortnite. Stuff like this makes me hate it even more.
God save us all
This..THIS makes the news and I have yet to find an article updating the Titanfall/Respawn rabbit hole! That's just embarrassing.
Games like this are the reason kids don't go outside and exercise anymore or play. Can't wait for this game to inevitably close down.
