how does apple make money off fortnite?

No, it isn't. It's also not fair that fortnite nickel and dimes children. Nothing is "fair" and nothing ever was. You can accept it or you can enjoy watching it crumble.

And Fortnite made how much from being hosted on Apple devices?
Oliver Cook
fpbp. It's Apple's platform, OS, and storefront. They deserve a cut if you sell an app in their ecosystem. If i made an app store that was successful you bet your ass i'm charging you a percentage to reach my consumers.
Jacob Bailey
Abusing peoples inability to control themselves is as bad as forcing them to do it.
Matthew Russell
That's not nickel and diming, though. At all.
Nathan Jackson
They took 30% of the vbucks
Asher Sanchez
Who gives a fuck about this whole situation. You're all faggots. Both those corparations can suck my dick.
And you're a retard.
Fuck this thread and board, I'm out.

This. My girlfriend's brother has dozens of skins, and 1,000 Vbucks used to be $10. Skins can be a maximum of 2000 vbucks. I can only imagine how much he's spent on it.

>you HAVE to click that shiny glowing pay for skins button bro you have no other options! Just ask your parents for their credit card!
If the parents of said children aren't monitoring what their child does online they are terrible parents and deserve to be bankrupted by their autistic kid that can't control himself

It's Apple's platform therefore it's Apple's users.

And Epic would have made the 360 million dollars. I don't give a shit. Fortnite is a shit game. Apple is shit company. Epic is a shit company. If they all disappeared tomorrow, i would think the world would improve.
Ayden Baker
as dumb as that must be.. it is their platform after all
Nathan Perry
yes it's their platform. Having fortnite on their store is free advertising to MILLIONS of people.
James Watson
This. Their priority is the shareholders not your feelings. Welcome to the real world, faggots.

Fortnite isn't a bad genre but what is unfair is stealing from PUBG's momentum with the Chinese dollar.
Wyatt Adams
How many did Epic made from being on the App store alone?
Wyatt Jackson
I commend Epic and Fortnite for seeing the rise of BRs and immediately flipping their shitty PVE building game into a battle royale
Logan Perez
Epic knew of the 30% cut when they put their game on Apples storefront, no one forced Epic to put their game on iOS. If they can't follow the rules of the platform they don't deserve to be on it.

>advertising
>for fortnite
Xavier Reyes
Well if Apple takes a 30% cut and the cut was 360 million then Epic made over a billion from the App store alone. Why are they complaining again?
Brayden Cruz
30% cut is pure greed, but then again Epic have still made $840 million (minus costs) from the iOS version alone, so I won't be crying for them.
Adam Sullivan
Okay
Aiden Hernandez
Of course it is. Epic is paying Apple for the ease of access to their user base.
Lucas Cooper
Epic want that 360 million for themselves
