Based prince who dressed as a nazi and was born into a position of influence and privilege, and whose lifestyle is funded entirely by the public is lecturing people on what they should and shouldn't do with their time and money.
He's right and you're mad because he insulted your meme game.
Levi Hughes
Oh give it a rest. If we could all instead have sexytimes with stacies in Vegas hotel rooms instead of playing playing video games, we would. Video games help us COPE.
>not just asking parents to be more responsible in raising their children Why does everything have to come to forcing people to pay you money or otherwise sending the police to apprehend you for doing something you don't like?
Julian White
He's 100% right.
Zachary Hill
I don't like Fortnite at all --I've never even played it and likely never will-- but to demand the game be banned is comically ineffectual and just makes it seem like he's trying to divert attention by talking about something he doesn't understand.
Any game can make a child an ""addict"". You could give a kid anything from a book to a toy fire engine and as long as they decide to use it instead of do their homework or whatever then suddenly they're an ""addict"" and not just a child that likes doing things they enjoy. The responsibility is on the parents to decide what media their child consumes and how often, not the government. What a cunt.
Brody Smith

Caleb Perez
Hate to say he's not wrong. But alcohol and cigarettes and every other drug are the same. It's an ethical thing, where do you start and end when it comes to banning things?
Evan Young
Fuck the (((royal))) family. Gamers rise up

Eli Russell
Do kids still play fortnite? Is he just mad it killed pubg?
Jason Carter

Gabriel Rogers
This guy married a nigger and his nigger wife is banning him from fox-hunting, trying to change the royal education, and is overall making a mockery of the royal family (which was already kind of a joke to begin with).
This guy has a lot of balls telling me what I should and shouldn't do. Actually, he has no balls because his wife took those away too.

Shouldn't those dipshits be more focused on Brexit?
No, I'm a cuckold like you who just takes beatings all his life, never once answering in kind.
Henry Gray
He's not wrong, and not just about Fortnite. Almost all games have a monetary system that reward you for playing. Why? So you can play longer - that is literally the function for those systems, to make you play longer. To use actual labels, to get you "hooked" and "addicted."
>It's so irresponsible. It is irresponsible. That's why a portion of Yea Forums's population is NEET. NEET is an acronym for irresponsibility, it means that you aren't taking care of x, y, or z responsibilities.
However it's not a video game company's responsibility to make sure you're responsible, it's their responsibility to sell more units. That's how the world works but it doesn't mean it's any better.
>It's like waiting for the damage to be done and kids turning up on your doorsteps and families being broken down. This is a slippery slope but is a possible future for addicts anywhere.
Owen Murphy
I have no horse in this race, I don't have to provide shit. Harry made an argument, offer a counter argument to what he said.
Jamming your fingers in your ears and saying "no you first" is still not a valid argument.

Then go do something else and stop involving yourself in shit you supposedly don't care about.
Asher Harris
Brits were anti-fun before that. You guys had TV liscenses before Meghan Markle married Harry. Don't blame this one on us.
Michael Turner
Because the parents are voters, and more important to the royal family, taxpayers.
But user, Harry would be excising his first amendment right by talking about it this way. It's not like he's banning the game himself, he just says he hates it and it should be banned.
Christian Reed
>Harry made an argument he didn't, but I can still refute it a fortnite game last 15 minutes in average, there is no reason to chain games as it doesn't reward you in any point since the point of a BR is to "start fresh" every game, thus it has nothing addicting in it
>implying the only way you get rewarded for playing more games is if you chain games or play more games consecutively
Ayden Thompson

Blame them for what? Children are literally retards. No amount of good parenting can ever do anything about that.
Jordan Ross

Hear the cries? That's the sound of addicts.
Levi Ortiz
Both parents and video game companies are to blame. Parents can curb habits and instill better life skills. Video game companies can stop making things addicting.
Which one of the 2 above has more money though? Obviously video game companies don't need to change - they're not to blame!!
>all these people saying hes not wrong >literally claims video games are more addictive than physiologically addictive substances >is a manchild who spent his entire youth spending tax money on doing drugs and partying aroun the globe while being protected from any consequence by his title before he settles down with an american tv actress attracted to his stack of cash and fancy castle >invited to speak about mental health he just mumbles about fortnite like a retard spouting that videogames are addictive is highly reductive when you could easily use the same logic to call any hobby addictive, video games may be very unconstructive but so is a whole bunch of other shit people waste their life on. Ive never played fortnite and i hardly even play vidya anymore but this guy is a fucking joke and so is his "argument"
>first that Phillies baseball player smashing the console up when he caught idiots playing it durning their downward spiral >now this We need more heroes like them.

You mean the single mom with 5 kids from 4 fathers who only ever pays tax in the form of liquor VAT?
Anthony Garcia
He's right and actually redpilled. Fortnite is like a drug to kids, their generation is gonna get pretty fucked up, but there's nothing we can really do about this. As a young man who is never having kids myself, i'm looking forward to see the world going down the shitter.
Charles Hill

Carter Reyes
>Parents can curb habits and instill better life skills.
Not really. Children LITERALLY are retarded. Their brains are just physically incapable of tons of shit adults can do. Stuff like comprehending mortality, impulse control, interpreting social cues, etc., etc. kids fucking suck at until their late teens at best and parents can do shit about that. It's just the nature of human development.
Jayden Jones
My favorite game isnt F2P microtransactions bullshit
Blake Nelson
He's 100% right. VIdeo games are a waste of time and serve as a crutch for the emotionally dysfunctional to hide behind and never develop past their problems.
Logan Sanders
Isn't this the guy that used to get smashed as fuck at parties?
Lincoln Lewis
Drugs are in most cases not a problem in itself but only in combination with a personality that is pre-disposed towards addictive behaviour. Same with video games. In particular when people have nothing better to do. The problem is not the games, the problem is that people intuitively realise that life has nothing good to offer so they might as well have some fun before the inevitable collapse.
Jackson Wood
My grandfather used to dress like a nazi too. Ain't nothing wrong with that.
Ryder Cook

This is a bad idea. Fortnite is fucking terrible, but letting the government control on the media and banning it will open the floodgates especially as fortnite is a game played by children. Imagine if they start banning e rated games because they don’t like the content in it.
Nolan Davis

Raise your kids or don't have them you lazy fucks, you plop them down in front of a screen for 15 hours a day without genuinely interacting with them and you wonder why they turn into little psychos or lazy dickheads and immediately blame whatever the fuck is popular at the time so you don't out yourself as a shitty parent.
Carson Clark

Ethan Nguyen
I only play single player games like Metroid, MGS and Persona. I despise any games that have multiplayer aspects as I believe hell is other people. Free to play games are made to be addictive and trick you into spending real money. IMO that shit is without dignity, and the people who make them (cliffy b) should be arrested.

1st, do I even have to have an opinion? 2nd, sometimes the gaming industry does get it wrong, sometimes it is to bleed money out of the underaged which is pretty crappy (I got in shit load of trouble for that it was all around the school "you did what? fuck"). Next, (dad didn't get his money back but they got in touch with the regulators) there are rules on his opinions mon cheri, he would do well to get an impartial mouthpiece to filter his thoughts through because he can get in trouble politically. That's not easy for him but hey.
The greatest part isn't all the kids, but all the adult blokes who play video games are now under fire too. Their girlfriends now have the power to say, "Why can't you be more like prince Harry?"
Sebastian Long
Reminder that claiming Fortnite is "created to addict" is absolutely asinine and outright ignorant in a world where gacha garbage exists.
Fortnite does not encourage people to spend hundreds upon thousands of dollars for jpgs of their "waifu"
We conquered half the world and slaughtered anyone who disagreed you dumb cunt, proper elections weren't even until about 2 centuries ago and even then with heavy restrictions until the early 20th century Read a history book

Fortnite is shit but banning stuff because parents are useless assholes is retarded. But he's the prince of Britbannia so what the fuck did you expect.

Fuck fornite, but fuck 'banning' shit just because.
This kind of shit opens a Pandora's box.
Imagine that the bong parliament puts into law that you can only play a game so often, or not at all. First it will be fornite, second could be any game that shows cleavage, then your_favorite_game...
Same shit with any law giving governments any power over what the people can and can't do.
Freedom is at risk these days. Specially freedom of speech. Ever since 9/11 things have been going out of control, but now it's getting ridiculous.
Remember it's not about fornite, it's about freedom.
