As Fortnite Enables Third-Party Microtransactions, Steal the Brainrot's Developer is Slammed By Fans For Immediately Adding $45 Premium Bundles and Gambling-Style Mechanics
-
it's not actually fortnite, they now have a roblox-like game mode browser where players could create games in an editor.
But you launch Fortnite to access it on every platform. There isn’t an “Epic UGC” app. So this is what Fortnite has become. An umbrella for experiences that include Battle Royal, Zero Build, Concerts, etc.

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.
All they have to do is disable games with mtx in the countries that ban it

yea fair, although some countries get super iffy about it. That was a big reason Overwatch ended up swapping to a rolling store with OW2 instead of keeping the loot box system, and that was a first party MTX system.

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

They probably saw how much money Roblox makes and that public opinion is (finally) starting to turn on Roblox. They want that pie
Yeah a slippery slope if children start making content and not paid enough
-
Lol. That's got nothing to do with it. The adults stalking kids is what's up.

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

I thought it was a third person shooter with bafflingly shitty gunplay..I.guess things have changed since it came out.

Fortnite is turning into Roblox. You can now make games for Fortnite with Unreal Editor for Fortnite. This Steal the brain rot game is made by a third party dev.

GAAS is a fucking scam. Stop playing this consumer abusing trash.
This is even worse this is GAAP. Games as a platform like Roblox. So Fortnite is now filled with even more slop

Ok thats actually funny to add $45 mtx. If people wanna spend money on a meme game like that who cares. If parents leave their card hooked up to their kids account thats on them.
I dont see the issue here.

Tell that to Altered Beasts. By the late 80's they were designed to take your quarters. No skills could avoid it.
