From what I remember in Folding Idea’s Decentraland video essay, they were trying to push metaverse stuff in fortnite pretty hard. Selling tickets to exclusive “live” concerts and the like (which were prerecorded btw). Z-man was just one of many trying to make it a Thing, when it clearly is just an exploitative gimmick
Oh, right. I completely forgot about the Fortnite “concerts”. Thanks for the reminder. They were so obviously doomed to fail right from the beginning, lol.

Did I completely miss something? What the fuck does Fortnite have to do with Zuck’s stupid metaverse idea stolen from 80s & 90s cyberpunk?
