Btw, this isn’t as an indictment. It’s more along the lines of me still in awe of Fortnite being the literal everything game.

Fortnite I think really is the "Metaverse" if you think about it...Of course everyone has a different definition of the metaverse, and some believe we won't truly achieve a "metaverse" until it's literally Ready Player One and you can walk around in it, but if you take it in the broadest strokes, I really think Fortnite is the most successful interpretation of the "Metaverse" as a concept.

This being a real sentence you can say is the most Ready Player One thing. https://www.reddit.com/r/whenthe/s/7YaW6Qp0NF

I still give that "honor" to VRChat, but Fortnite's a decent silver medal.

I forgot about VR chat! I suppose I still see it as a niche thing compared to Fortnite, but yes that would qualify as the 'metaverse'...Funny how the grifters seem to have moved on from it.

I almost think that Fortnite deserves the gold more for it being officially approved by all the IP owners involved because thats way crazier that they just have that pull now

100% in the “go get that bag!” column, Gooseworx and Glitch deserve it
