    It is entitlement. When I signed up to play Fortnite BR I agreed to a limited license to play the game as they intended to run it. If Epic kills Fortnite do I have the right to force them to make a version of BR be playable offline? No, because that isn’t what we agreed to.

    Nothing about this is predatory. You simply aren’t getting what you want and are throwing a tantrum over it

      How DARE you suggest things should be better for me, the consumer, instead of the way our corporate overlords feel is more profitable!

      Well, that’s certainly an… Interesting take on someone saying things should be better…

        “ Amazing that you think its okay for children to sign contracts where they agree that any money they give to Epic is gone forever, and that any worthless digital assets they are manipulated into purchasing can be voided and deleted at any time without any recompense!”

        At no point have I said anything that would lead to this conclusion.

        For the record Fortnite is rated “T” for teens because of the microtransactions.

        Your “inB4” is moronic. It IS parent’s job to do this. If they don’t have the energy then dont get them a system.

        You as an adult are responsible for the agreements you make. It is childish to pretend otherwise.

            No I claim that agreeing to those conditions and then complaining when they do not alter those terms in ways you want them to is childish entitlement. Do you see the difference? If you have a problem with the license you do not agree to it and you do not play the game.

            The rest of your post is just more of the same whining about why you can’t have things the way you want them when they are not being offered on your terms to begin with.

            Finally, you are complaining about video games. You should keep that in mind so you have better perspective on this.
