![]() By: Juan Martinez Fortnite is one of the most popular games right now. On July 25, 2017 a game called Fortnite was released. The game started getting popular on September because they were excited about the October update. They started coming out with new items every week which brought more people to play. They started having an item shop where they got even more money because they kept adding skins every week. Now because of all that hard work, 3.4 million people have joined the game. There are more people playing Fortnite than PUBG. PUBG is a more real life version of Fortnite, but you can't build, instead you can drive cars. PUBG means PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds PUBG has 3.2 million people while Fortnite has 3.4 million people. On March 15, 2018 they started coming out on mobile. IOS people are able to play, but android users have to wait longer. You can't just download it, you have to put your gmail and wait until they invite you to play. It would take approximately 2-5 days to get the invite. There are a lot of Fortnite streamers. Fortnite streamers means that they record what they are playing live. You can make money out of that. A guy named, Tyler Belvin, also known as NinjasHyper, makes half a million dollars a month by streaming on twitch. Tyler has 5 mil subscribers on Youtube, 1m followers on Twitter/Instagram, and 3.7 million followers on twitch. Tyler has been on twitch since 2011. He still had a lot of twitch followers before Fortnite. When he started playing Fortnite people were confused on what he is playing until they tried it and liked it. More and more people started trying it and out of nowhere it became popular. Tyler is a really important part of this community. Him and a lot of youtubers are sponsored by Fortnite. Just by tyler playing that game he became rich. He isn't just using the money to buy whatever, in fact he raised over $100,000 for Suicide Preventions. The goal was $25,000, but 8 hours later they raised $100,000 because of Tylers community. I asked some fellow students what are their opinions on Fortnite and here was their response. First I interviewed a freshman that comes to KSJC and here was his response. What are your opinions on Fortnite? “It is fun and entertaining.” Have you ever played Fortnite, If so how many hours? “Yes and probably 60 hours.” Do you have any friends or family members that play fortnite? If so do you notice a change in their lifestyle ever since they started playing it? “Yes,my friend, because they get addicted to game and they stop talking to them.” How do you think fortnite has affected our society? “They have a lot of people playing it because of a famous streamer called Ninja.” Then I interviewed another freshman named Joshua and they had different answers. What are your opinions on Fortnite? “It is a fun and entertaining game.” Have you ever played Fortnite, If so how many hours? “Yes and probably 168 hours played” Do you have any friend or family members that play fortnite? If so do you notice a change in their lifestyle ever since they started playing it? “Yes my brother because before he wouldn’t be late, but now he is.” How do you think fortnite has affected our society? “It has made mostly everyone more addicted to video games.” My opinions on the game Fortnite are that I think the game is fun and makes us more aware because in the game you have to be aware of the direction they are coming from. I also think that the game really addicting because they add skins every week and it makes you want to buy them if they look cool and use them in game. Also I think it is addicting because people like me have stayed up until 2-3 am in a school day or non school day. The game has really affected different people because some people are angry all the time and other people stop going outside to be the best in the game. After all of this, it shows how Fortnite has become really popular.
