Download or read book How Fortnite Became A Global Video Game Phenomenon How Fortnite Changed People s Lives And How To Earn Revenue As A Fortnite Player written by Dr. Harrison Sachs and published by The Epic Books Of Dr. Harrison Sachs. This book was released on 2019-06-12 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This essay sheds light on how Fortnite became a global video game phenomenon, explicate how Fortnite changed people’s lives, and expounds upon how to earn revenue as a Fortnite player. Fortnite was able to achieve the stupendous feat of becoming a global video game phenomenon during its incipience. There are a multitude of reasons as to why Fortnite was able to become global video game phenomenon during its genesis as one of the utmost popular video games of all time as of November of 2023. Fortnite’s extreme popularity among gamers is not solely attributed to Fortnite launching as a free-to-play battle royale video game. Fortnite is far more than a conventional battle royale video game. Fortnite has three unique game modes and is one of the utmost popular video games for gamers to watch live stream broadcasts of as of November of 2023. Fortnite not only offers Battle Royale modes, but also offers a sandbox game mode that is called Fortnite Creative. Furthermore, Fortnite also offer a “player versus environment cooperative game mode” that is called “Fortnite: Save The World”. As of November of 2023, Fortnite has gained significant traction as the utmost popular free-to-play battle royale video game of all time. Live stream broadcasts of Fortnite battle royale matches have accrued substantial concurrent views. Fortnite became all the more popular as a video game to watch live stream broadcasts of shortly after “Drake the rapper joined one of Twitch's most popular gaming streamers, Ninja, for a Fortnite game. The stream set an all-time record for highest number of concurrent views” (Lorenz, 2018). “Fortnite holds the record for the most videos related to a video game uploaded in a single month to YouTube. Fortnite even set a record for biggest single live gaming stream on YouTube with more than 1,100,000 live viewers” (Lorenz, 2018). An exorbitant amount of Fortnite gameplay videos on YouTube have been able to summarily build substantial traction and swiftly attained viral video status. The appeal of Fortnite among gamers can be partially attributed to the popularity of live stream broadcasts of battle royale video games. Epic Games was able to develop an exhilarating battle royale video game that furnishes live streamers with a frictionless live stream broadcasting experience not only because Fortnite is easily accessible to live streamers due to it being a free-to-play battle royale video game, but also because Fortnite has customizable graphics quality settings and is also able to provide substantial downtime to live streamers during their live stream broadcast sessions of Fortnite battle royale matches. Downtime during live stream broadcast sessions of Fortnite battle royale matches transpires when the live streamer is not in the fray of combat when partaking in Fortnite battle royale matches which furnishes him with ample time to be able to communicate with the viewers of his live stream broadcasts during his live stream broadcast sessions. Live streamers should aim to be engaging during their live stream broadcast sessions by frequently confabulating with their viewers during their live stream broadcast sessions since neglecting to communicate with their viewers during their live stream broadcast sessions can adversely impact their concurrent viewership levels on their live stream broadcast sessions. Having low concurrent viewership levels on their live stream broadcast sessions can undermine a live streamer’s earning potential if it results in him forgoing generating additional potential advertisement revenue, forgoing generating additional potential subscription revenue, and forgoing generating additional potential donation revenue. Live streamers are able to interact with their viewers amid their live stream broadcast sessions as they are roaming around the spacious battle royale island map in Fortnite battle royale matches. The capacious battle royale island map in Fortnite battle royale matches is devoid of non-playable characters and is mostly desolated. Epic Games, the publisher and developer of Fortnite, has played a pivotal role in contributing to the surge of popularity in the battle royale video game subgenre via the seamless integration of the battle royale game modes in Fortnite. Epic Games has also integrated elements of a survival video game into the battle royale game modes in Fortnite. In the battle royale game modes in Fortnite, players need to cope with having access to an infinitesimal amount of resources on the spacious battle royale island map in Fortnite battle royale matches while they are attempting to survive the Fortnite battle royale matches.

Download or read book The Gamification of Digital Journalism written by David O. Dowling and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-11-23 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the brief yet accelerated evolution of newsgames, a genre that has emerged from puzzles, quizzes, and interactives augmenting digital journalism into full-fledged immersive video games from open-world designs to virtual reality experiences. Critics have raised questions about the credibility and ethics of transforming serious news stories of political consequence into entertainment media, and the risks of trivializing grave and catastrophic events into mere games. Dowling explores both the negatives of newsgames, and how the use of entertainment media forms and their narrative methods mainly associated with fiction can add new and potentially more powerful meaning to news than traditional formats allow. The book also explores how industrial and cultural shifts in the digital publishing industry have enabled newsgames to evolve in a manner that strengthens certain core principles of journalism, particularly advocacy on behalf of marginalized and oppressed groups. Cutting-edge and thoughtful, The Gamification of Digital Journalism is a must-read for scholars, researchers, and practitioners interested in multimedia journalism and immersive storytelling.
