Oh, wait... do you know what YouTube is?
Lol yes. And not everyone owns gaming systems or plays games on their PC.

There will certainly be someone streaming the Fortnite presentation, but it can also be played for free through a game streaming service like GeForce Now on any computer with decent internet access.For those that do not own gaming systems and hardly know, or care, what fortnight is lol, how would one view this?
Not this yearPeople will pay to go if there's a live stream. It's about the experience of being there. being in the moment.
My local hockey team, the Chicago Blackhawks, did not televise their home games for a LONG time under the idea that if they are on TV, no one will go to the game. So what happened? An entire generation of fans who never cared about the Blackhawks because they couldn't watch them. Owner died. His kids put the team back on TV. They win 3 Stanley Cups.
They aren't live streaming any of it to the public. The Fortnite stream is delayed by 90 minutes.
There are at least 6 references to "live" or "livestreamed" in this announcement. Maybe I am wrong, but it sounds like the panel will go long. Park and experiences will go first. Then at 10:30 it will switch to games and that's when they will live stream it.Some streaming news?

Imagine watching a screen within a screen, but in front of the screen it is a nonsensical series of avatars running around and doing weirdo online multiplayer stuff to one another.Sooo...how do you watch something on Fortnite?
What, you don’t want to watch a live presentation within a gaming universe while an avatar of Jack Sparrow teabags a member of the Fab Five off in the distance?If true, I move from frustrated at a weird decision to not caring at all if it's just about the Fortnite work
… me either.What, you don’t want to watch a live presentation within a gaming universe while an avatar of Jack Sparrow teabags a member of the Fab Five off in the distance?
I mean, this is how the “I have a dream” event went down in Fortnite:If true, I move from frustrated at a weird decision to not caring at all if it's just about the Fortnite work
Here’s how the Travis Scott concert went down too

That makes more sense.As mentioned in the other thread, the Fortnite stream is a "special segment" of the presentation. Doesn't sound like it's the whole thing.
Ultimately it was just a lot of stress and hassle to get into the parks panel (and it seems that has only gotten worse this year). Even though it was cool being able to be "in the room" and get my novelty trinkets and whatnot I ultimately walked away thinking the livestream would've given me a similar if not better experience without all the stress and money. I really only attended D23 in general to go to the panel, so that may be part of it.What were your main issues with 2022?
You know, all this Fortnite talk has me thinking... what do we think the extent of Disney's deal with Epic Games is? Is Disney still trying to make a metaverse-type thing happen with a virtual park and stuff? They are combining their parks panel with Fortnite news, which is strange when you think about it unless that's the direction they're going in. That's kinda the vibe I'm getting, and I'm concerned that they're going to be pumping billions into a video game instead of their actual real parks. It's definitely much easier to build and change a digital park than it is a real one, that's for sure...The announcement of the Fortnite delayed stream says that it will cover announcements from Fortnite AND Disney. Seems to suggest it will be the entire thing, but delayed by 90 minutes.
This is the best post today. I just want you to know thatWhat, you don’t want to watch a live presentation within a gaming universe while an avatar of Jack Sparrow teabags a member of the Fab Five off in the distance?
Isn’t the reasonable and obvious assumption that the Fortnite live stream is about Fortnite? Not about the parks?HAHHAHHAHHAAHAH.
What a stupid move, Disney what are you doing? Seriously, though this is incredibly stupid, do they know what they are doing? Their audience is parks fans like us on the boards not Fortnite kids.
So, who here is gonna play Fortnite because of this?
