Re: New Games on the Horizon (the video game thread)
Can someone explain to me what Fortnite is all about? It's the first time I've felt old when it comes to video games. I've watched clips of people playing it and I don't get it.

It's a free to play game that you essentially harvest materials to build structures (either for defense or attack), while you and 99 other people try to outlast each other. The big kicker is that the map everyone lands on continues to shrink which eliminates the camper problem so many games have, and it forces navigating long stretches of the map forcing inevitable conflict. There is also no carry over, so once your dead, you can just boot back up and start a new game all over. That aspect makes it addicting as hell...
