I used to be a big proponent of socialized medicine because I do believe everyone should have access to health care. But then I lived in a country that, though it has state of the art medical facilities, it also has socialized medicine. People have to wait months to get a doctor's appointment. People can literally die waiting for specialized tests.
Or PlayStation Vue or Direct TV Now? I've never tried the former but Direct TV Now was pretty decent. Though I didn't like paying for streaming with commercials. Netflix is the way to go.
Makes me want to go back in time to when my parents would tell me to stop wasting my time playing video games and hit the books. They said no one ever made a penny from playing games. Boy did they turn out to be wrong.
The author is wrong about one aspect - Fortnite is unique in that yes, people can spent real money for virtual skins, but unlike other games - this does not give you any sort of an edge in gameplay. It's purely for aesthetics.
Good article. Though one correction - Fortnite actually has 250 million players, not 100 million. Of course that's just people who have actually ever played. The number of active players at any given time are much lower, though still in the millions and a very impressive number. The record for them is 10.8 million players logged in concurrently.
Great interview! I'm unbelievably jealous. I tried to buy #bitcoin back then a well, but it just seemed so complicated, that I gave up on it. Of course I'm now kicking myself.
For a brief moment, I thought Netflix was going to let you somehow let you play games, as well. But the title is misleading, this is more of a licensing deal where they are letting video games be produced about their shows. There's nothing new or innovative about those ideas, Disney has been doing it for decades. But I suppose it could bring in some more revenue.
