    TBH, I’m kind of happy this is happening, with such a big game too. Kids will learn the hard way that they don’t own online-only games they paid for, and can’t trust on Apple, Epic and other such providers to keep content they bough available.

    It’s being pushed on all of us as the norm, so things like that might actually help the game preservation cause.

      It’s not clear that this is Apple’s doing as even third party stores took the game down. Tim Sweeney is such a shit eating petty asshole that I can believe he ordered it just to rile people up.

      I want Epic to win, but I don’t mind if they suffer in the meantime.

      I hope iOS users get unrestricted access just in time for Fortnite’s business model to become illegal.
