Description

​Heads up: We get into spoiler territory for A Way Out from around 20:35 until 36:00. ​Everyone on the panel has finished A Way Out so it's time for some final thoughts on the game overall before we dive into a spoiler-rich discussion of the last act and different endings. The gang also digs into the Fortnite phenomenon, as Patrick unpacks the degree to which the game has taken over teenage and young adult culture. Speaking of feeling out of touch with the culture, why do streamers keep using that slur? Judging from the quality of the almost-daily public apologies we're getting, a lot of them still seem shaky on why they shouldn't.Here's Patrick's piece​ on Fortnite​'s tremendous popularity in schools: https://waypoint.vice.com/en_us/article/59j9pk/teachers-and-parents-share-stories-from-inside-the-fortnite-phenomenonHere's the Twitter thread​ Austin mentioned about how the FGC took steps to reform some attitudes and behaviors: https://twitter.com/HoldenShearer/status/980404490938482688 For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy
