YOU SAID:

Video games! They bring people together. This has never been more true than last night when Drake, a wildly successful musical artist, logged into "Fortnite", a video game, to play with Ninja, a wildly successful Twitch streamer. Chances are, only two-thirds of the words in that previous sentence make sense to you. That's cool. One of the neat things in life is learning about and eventually gaining an appreciation for things that otherwise seem confusing and impenetrable. So, c'mon, let's unpack the cultural significance of Drake playing a video game live on the internet! OK, What Is This 'Fortnite'? In absolute terms "Fortnite" is a third-person online multiplayer shooter, developed by Epic Games.1 First released in the summer of 2017, "Fortnite" was originally devised as a survival game, a popular game genre that kind of dominated video games from 2013 until recently. As the name implies, survival games pit you, and perhaps some friends, against some open world environment that wants to kill you. In the case of "Fortnite," you and some friends are dropped onto an island. You acquire guns, supplies and materials to build fortresses — all in the service of defending yourself from waves of computer-controlled enemies. It's not a perfect metaphor, but "Fortnite," and other games like it, is sort of like the film "28 Days Later." You start with nothing, running in fear of everything. Eventually, you find a gun and things get better. It's good fun! But "Fortnite" was released during an unfortunate time for survival games. Back in March of 2017 a little game known as "Playerunknown's Battlegrounds" hit Steam's Early Access program.2 Itself a spin-off of the popular survival game "DayZ333," "Playerunknown's Battlegrounds" — nicknamed PUBG — introduced an entirely new game mode to the genre of online multiplayer shooters: battle royale.4 You're dropped onto an island with a maximum of 99 other people, last one standing wins. If that sounds familiar, yes, it is almost exactly like the film "Battle Royale."
