Fortnite is streaming a 'black hole' for 'The End' event, and it's driving millions nuts
Fortnite is streaming a 'black hole' for 'The End' event, and it's driving people nuts...

LINK:

Fortnite, the online video game, has been streaming a black screen with a black dot on its social media channels ahead of its long-anticipated 'The End' event. Millions have been staring at the black screen, mesmerized for hours.

First there was a map, then a meteor, before a bunch of rockets nuked it and all that was left was a 'black hole.' Shockwaves were sent through the Fortnite community.

See it happen here on link below

So I was called to the living room to watch this video - and before the black hole, there were rockets and a huge meteor. There were cracks in the sky - like it was Glass.

It was freaking crazy.

I feel a lot of bitterness about gaming. First it was Pinball machines, then while I read books, practiced instruments and studied, other kids in town had typical 1970s video games. I didn't like comics either. Now the two combine for an even worse nightmare. I can't imagine staring at that shit on a screen permanently. I can barely stand a few seconds of a video game.
