Interesting article, but can't help but think that due to the pandemic an already growing issue was accelerated. I see fortnite and games no different than the social media addiction that many people suffer from. The author rightly pointed that out. With a lack of social life allowed people were searching for anything that made them feel like they belong. For myself, I was isolated during my highschool years and turned to online gaming and youtube communities. Back in 2010 it was less prevalent and definitely less predatory. It gives me some empathy for children and people today. This article feels like a scapegoat article targeted towards Fortnite instead of a larger social anxiety issue. The author does touch on it, but not as much as I would have liked. Thanks for sharing!
