And now they’re paying people money to coach their kids on how to play them properly. Full Frontal Nerdity isn’t making it up, either: the Wall Street Journal has it behind a paywall, but enough of the preview is available. My God, how the money would roll in from a project like that. All the money. ALL.
And the best part? If you’re worried about kids spending too much time on video games: fear not. Inflicting Fortnite lessons for them is the fastest way I can think of to make them be ready to escape outside forever.
I suspect this is fruit of OG gamers (much like yourself) bearing spawn. The super-competitive ones, less like yourself(?), but more like their athletic counterparts live vicariously through their children, as said children leave them little time to achieve these lofty heights themselves. Said children will then rebel against their parents by… joining the baseball team?

What a world we’ve come to live in.
Interestingly, my eldest is right now creating elaborate animated stick figure movies via a particular program. I’m being damned careful to not discourage this via the ‘flood the zone’ method. 🙂
I’m waiting until ties make a comeback ..

My mind keeps flashing back to the “Teach me how to tame a horse in Minecraft” episode of South Park.
