    How old is this? She has at least one skin in Fortnite because of the rhythmic game mode.

      In fairness, I can imagine her channelling her inner Lucille Bluth if she was asked by one of her staff if she wants to be in Fortnite for some sum of money.

      It’s very much a “nod your head to receive free money” situation.

    Old man yells at cloud time: I feel like naming yourself “Ninja” is something a 7 year old would do. I can’t take it seriously. It’s like naming your BG3 rogue “Assassin” or your music group “Guitarists”.

    But also I stay away from all influencers, so I don’t know what’s going on in that world.

      I mean, it’s not an influencer thing, it’s a common sense thing. His username on twitch used to be NinjasHyper. Common sense dictates that this is a fairly normal username because of the nature of usernames. Common sense also dictates that when addressing someone who you only know by the internet moniker of “NinjasHyper”, you’re going to call them Ninja or Hyper.

      naming yourself like a 7 year old is a good way to be popular as a streamer of a game 7 year olds play

      And if that’s your nickname growing up and it sticks…? Gotta be a few dude.

        I expect most people don’t stick with their nickname from when they were a kid. The kid we called “green shit” (because he’d always play luigi) isn’t obligated to carry on that name. I mean, we lost touch, maybe he is, but somehow I doubt it.

          Most do, sounds like you just gave people abusive names and they just stop letting you call them that.

          Nicknames are what people call themselves, not the names bullies use lmfao, what a take.

            A. You extrapolated from one sample to a generalization. That’s not very sound. There were other nicknames but they were less memorable (eg: “curly” for the kid with curly hair)

            B. Giving yourself a nickname is kind of dubious. Not like shortening “Nicholas” to “Nick” , but like “Call me killer” is kind of laughable. Maybe that was just where I grew up, but if you just tried to give yourself a cool name it’d be laughed at as unearned.

              You understand that there’s a difference between “calling yourself” and “giving yourself” a nickname? The latter wasn’t stated by me, so I don’t know why you’re bringing it up.

              If your buddies called you killer, and you used it, that’s calling yourself the nickname. Of course it’s lame to give yourself one. But when you get introduced to people, using the nickname they would use is okay. You’re just spreading what’s already been given to you.

              Calling anyone green shit, even as a joke is just being a shit person, don’t need to extrapolate anything when you’ve laid it bare.

          Errr … fine. I have a bias. I didnt like fortnite. I grew up playing twitch shooters like quake and UT. The most important things that mattered back then was movement, positioning and ofcourse, aim.

          Aim was a huge huge part, back then the input was as analog as it got. Nowadays I feel like raw aim has taken a step back, while still being important, It is not THE diferentiating factor any longer, especially in games like fortnite.

          I’m bitter about that because my mechanical skill is still up there even as an older dude, but in todays games everyone runs circles around me, especially in games like fortnite.

          I miss the arena shooters, the raw input feel of 1:1 of the analog days. But I guess I’m just another older guy screaming at a cloud.

            I played Q2, Q3A and UT when I was in my 20s, and I was in a clan, all that stuff. I wasn’t amazing but I was good enough to not embarrass myself.

            Still play Fortnite from time to time, and it’s the best of the modern arena shooters. When it came out, it was extremely playable even on my PC which ran PUBG at 1-2 FPS. Apex and Valiant and that lot feel really clunky and slow by comparison for just running around, while Fortnite hits a good balance between those and things like the original UT which were fun but felt like you were running at 50mph which was weird.

            I like finishing my day job and relaxing by kicking the butt of the new crop of gamers.

      There are several as they released a music mode/rhythm game and she was featured in a pass.
