you know those who named this "Horizons" probably never experienced it or know what it was like... they just thought the old folks would enjoy it while they cater to the new suckers

Wild. And it starts an hour and a half after the event starts in person. So maybe they’re only streaming the part of the announcements that actually have something to do with Fortnight
Just saw in the other thread that this stream starts after the presentation in person ends. So maybe it will be all of it and just a replay? If so then I don’t think Disney understands the meaning of the word “Live”

They need time to sanitize the audio, just in case there are copious amounts of booing at what is presented. Or not presented.

It's a recording of a live event.

Frankly, they should just prerecord the whole thing like an Apple event. The production value is higher, you are able to get an up close view of detailed images, and it's not as awkward.

I assume they mean it in the sense of playback in FORTNITE being an active broadcast at a set time, as opposed to something consumable on demand. It is, nevertheless, a bit disingenuous.

this is the dumbest thing I've ever heard lol, this even tops not streaming the event. I guess there's some sort of way to view it but with a company as controversial as Epic, I guess money talks.

this is sooooo profoundly dumb that I dont even know where to start.
It's not a "live stream" if it's starting after the event is over. All of the news will already be all over the internet by then.
You're limiting your viewership to only people that have Fortnite

From Fortnite's website:
"If you can’t catch the stream live or just want to rewatch, Disney Horizons Live from D23 will be around until August 16, with the presentation on loop. To celebrate the announcements, all players who visit the island for 10 minutes will be granted the Peelverine Plush Back Bling* plus XP on August 16."

I haven't played FORTNITE in over four years. Is this a straight video feed, or is it a giant screen in the sky that you have to watch while trying not to be killed by avatars of chaos?

I didn’t realize those kids had thousands of dollars to independently travel to WDW. Are they expecting kids to ask their parents to take them to disneyworld because the parents have no interest anymore?

The Fortnite avenue seems a bit weird and manipulative to me… and I enjoy both videogames and Disney!
