Fortnite

I have over 425+ days logged in.

As some of you may know GrrrtyGirl aka MsSugarNinja and I have been playing Save the World every day for the last year plus.  We have never paid for a loot crate because we thought we needed it to level up.  Today a lawsuit was filed...

"The scheme plays out perfectly to the benefit of Epic: once players are sufficiently invested in the game, Epic induces players to purchase loot boxes in order to get better loot, which results in massive revenue to Epic."

I'm just saying there is no way this will fly.  Epic added X-ray loot crates in January.  So you can see what you are getting out of the Llamas.  Good and bad I guess.  You never have to take a chance, but you always know what's in there.  So no surprise there.

Plus you can earn V-Bucks by just playing Save the World.  So if this kid was even playing the game he wouldn't be having an issue.  As far as the parents go... clueless. Nubfarm.

Where Did Ninja Go?

The last year has been a roller coaster of ups and downs for gamers watching the phenomenon of Ninja (Tyler Blevins). From small time streamer, to top Twitch personality in a record amount of time. As a Mom who runs many businesses, I watched things from a professional and personal stance transpire that made me shake my head with disbelief.

I watched this charismatic kid with a great outlook on life turn his love of gaming into an empire of money. His ability to learn any new game was something that all of us as gamers (myself included) would love to achieve. The release of Fortnite was his stepping stone to internet notoriety. He adapted to the game so quickly that he could not be beaten. His interaction with the chat with the boy next door attitude made him rise to the top of the Twitch almost over night.

Spoiler alert! He gets DEAD!

All you have to do is beat the Storm King by January 1, 2019 at 11:59 PM Eastern Time. No problem, right?  GrrrtyGirl and myself got a late start because we didn’t actually believe the reward was a real thing, but it is.  You can read more here.

It’s a 19 page quest.  Some of the quests are find “X” on “X” Map and no matter which map you chose there were only “X” of “X” on “X” map.  You get what I’m saying.  But I had a superior strategy of jumping between Canny Valley and Twine Peaks and search for the fastest maps to complete.  Mostly Encampment and Save the Survivor maps.  Well, we finished the questline with time to spare.  Now for this 45 minutes of Frostnite nubfarm.  Stay tuned!
