Jellyfin is literally all I watch not to mention the BEST alternative to all the centralized AD riddled garbage (Now in forced foreign languages) 'Tubi, Pluto, Prime Video'! Crazy cause being a "Prime" member isn't enough nowadays cause they want you to DOUBLE Pay on top of a Membership Subscription to remove ads which is sooo counterintuitive?!
Straight out of that (Black Mirror) episode called (Common People) Season 7 Episode 1... Predictive Programming at it's finest.
NintenDONT Boycott in Full Effect!
A twitter user? NOPE (don't let the # fool you) I don't participate in any centralized 'Antisocial Media' platforms, so WRONG Again. Just like you're wrong for entertaining The Problem you're NOT "well aware" of... The fact you're actively 'down voting' my posts for exposing these Evil Money Hungry Companies for what they are speaks volumes!
(Not "overplaying" a single app but the industry as a whole). Being the majority use the same Seasonal Psychological MictroTRASHaction formula.
This is why Mainstream Gaming is 99.4% destroyed and the World is in a SYSTEMATICALLY current state of decay... Reasons Why: Acceptance. Sheeple Accepting/ Supporting / Trending abysmal nonsensical behavior.
Example: NintenDONT and their pathetic draconian Switch 2! Are you a proud owner of one? If not do you deem it to be a great "Console" as you deem Paynite to be a great "game"?
Impressed by it's Bricking Abilities, $80 Games, Glitchy downgraded LCD Screen, Over Heating , Stick Drift, Battery Swelling, cheap internal storage module, Crash and Freezes, Poor Emulation, Wi-Fi lag... etc?
Just as you're impressed by Paynites felonious practices.

"Skins are not the point of fortnite" You're absolutely right. The point of fortnite is to make (BILLIONS) a Season and 37 Seasons later @ 40 BILLION DOLLARS and counting gives these EVIL Companies no incentive to produce legitimate products.
Gone are the days were Companies actually made (Good Honest Video Games). Now companies hire behavioralists/psychologists to manipulate kids and casuals alike into spending, Not Playing. Not only that Fortnite extorts their payer base as well, which lead to a Lawsuit by the FTC:
(Epic had to pay more than half a billion dollars for criminal behaviour)
(privacy violations, dark patterns and unwanted charges, especially targeting kids and teens).
So (Not So) Epic "Games" are not "epic" at all! And companies like this are a poor representation of what our Gaming Hobby use to be. These are no longer Video Games. They're Applications designed to Rob & psychologically manipulate the unsuspecting youth/ casuals into a (ENDLESS Pit Of PROFIT). Don't shoot the messenger all of this is well documented... Look it up!

"Fortnite generates significant revenue each season, with estimates suggesting it can earn hundreds of millions of dollars monthly, contributing to over $20 billion in revenue for 2022 alone."

Happy Shopping, Payer$!

Whats "Free" when the point of said (APP) is locked behind pay-walls!? Modern day "gaming" sucks, paying for content that was once earned through gameplay is NOT Rewarding nor Gaming, it's essentially Online Shopping. Fortnite is a Freemium Application which utilizes (In app purchase mechanics/ psychology) to lure in 'Payer$'. Particularly the Youth which are more impressionable.
Why don't you do some research on your beloved Applications:
The psychology of in-app purchase... South Park: season 18 Episode 6 (Freemium isn't Free)... HOW microtransactions ruined gaming... HOW Season Passes ruined gaming... HOW Battle Passes ruined gaming... HOW Live Services ruined gaming
Battle passes are replacing loot boxes, but they're not necessarily a better deal:
Our Hobby is COOKED over Greed & Ignorance.

Nice haul!!! SUPER great era's for gaming!
Exactly! Rewarding bad behavior is a understatement in this case. I grew up with Nintendo but as it stands they're a disgusting corporation in which I want nothing to do with! They LITERALLY ruined Lives! I suggest every Gamer researches NintenDONTs dark history.
And this is why The Gaming Industry is in COMPLETE turmoil! Sheeple literally reward the most abysmal business practices. Which in turn ruins it for everyone.
If a dog was to bite your hand would you immediately offer it a treat?
More like 80 plus gamers not supporting the NintenoDONT greed trend.
Go figure... the most draconian 'computer with a IP' ever released is selling like Hot Cakes! Speaks volumes about the current State of our hobby were sheeple Stand For Nothing and FALL For Everything.
Disgraceful cause just One can ruin it for all (but it's MILLIONS). Owning nothing and being happy is a understatement in comparison.
