  @PSN_ElectricDC @Doomhammer76 @FortniteGame I visited an American Sunday church service in VR. Pastor greeted me personally. That’s great use of tech - especially due to covid. This should have been a separate Unreal app with Metahuman tech to recreate MLK, running on a PS5. Instead now it’s a PR nightmare.

  @alexleewastaken I absolutely love the idea of this kind of outreach and education. I think the problem here is Fortnite as the platform. Are there people who will actually go to listen and educate themselves? Sure. But I think a majority of the audience still like to disrespectfully meme...

  @lores_truly I have no problems with it but I'm concerned MLK will be able to do fortnite dances

  @Ryandude5678 @FortniteGame Collabs aint the problem. The problem is ppl quitting games all of a sudden and not being punished for both this and toxic behavior such as the mentioned and much more. The gameplay factor is being let aside while skins money are in

  @LiterallyKoma I would not have any issues with this if they chose any other game than ******* fortnite 😭

  @T4cticalBruh I think that it might be due to internet lag, your IP or machine, VPN usage, or for cheating. I recommend not utilizing VPN or proxy services while attempting to play Fortnite.

  Ong MLK in Fortnite is atleast trying to send the right message. but now kids on a Twitter gonna see adults clowning it and might draaastically misinterpret what they’re doing and the message they’re trying to send in a neg way. This **** can fr cause problems

  @Bellydoodles @Rezztro @FortniteStatus Not exactly. Switch can run games like overwatch and apex legends just fine. And I've had little to no issues playing Fortnite on switch. (Just the voice chat issue that was recently fixed 👍)

  I get that a ton of kids play fortnite and it seems like it would be a great way to reach an entire generation of young people to teach them about race issues. But on the other hand OH MY GOD IT'S FORTNITE WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE!?

  I guess part of the problem is that I'm viewing this from the lens of a critic, and as a critic of both Fortnite and the metaverse idea more broadly I find it hard to ignore both the tonal dissonance and the way it serves the platform itself. However...

  @MattZedlol @AmzingKnight @OrangeGuy_YT "best season of all time"- No map changes except removing 4 pois, weve been on the same trash rushed in creative map for 2 years. Only broken UFOs and other trashy stuff in pubs. IMO its one of the worst. Old fortnite was what fn was supposed to be, based of STW.

  Oh you have a problem with them putting MLK in Fortnite? Didn’t know you hated diversity so much..

  @Chrism8t51 @FortniteGame I dont expect a dumb kid to understand why this is an issue so go spread your toxicity somewhere else.

  @Brock_toon It actually just looks like it's one of the Fortnite Game As Service thing where combat is disabled in an area so players can walk around, watch a video and explore a space decorated with Civil Rights media
