The children getting V-Bucks for birthdays and Christmas didn’t earn any money in the first place, but they ask for V-Bucks and Roblox money rather than full entire video games.
The kids are stupid for wanting something that would make them happy? I would call that standard child behaviour. And parents are stupid for making their children happy? I’d rather be stupid than a bad parent.
Let’s all hand our money over for skins so our kids can sit inside and play video games instead of doing real shit. Good idea. That will make sure they are corporate boot lickers for life.
Also, you can play the game without wasting money on skins.
I’m not a parent, and it’s certainly a strange metric to judge one by whether or not they gave their kid V-Bucks for their birthday, because that’s nearly all of them these days.
I did, but you don’t need vbucks to play Fortnite. Also, one thing didn’t keep my attention for long, so I preferred more games when I was a kid. Vbucks just buys skins. And you get free skins just playing the game and free vbucks just playing the game.
So pretty stupid to spend most of the limited money as a kid on skins year after year when it’s pretty much thrown at you so you don’t have to stick to default skins.
You don’t need V-Bucks to play Fortnite, but kids aren’t also known for having fully-developed skills like budgeting and delayed gratification. Perhaps it holds today’s kids’ attention longer because it’s changing in a way that games didn’t when we were kids.
You don’t need vbucks to play the game or any of the modes. When I was little I wanted money to buy games I couldn’t play without money.
And I guess I did understand budgeting since I had to save money to be able to buy games. And also learned pirating to try to further extend my budget when I was little, and friends lending each other games.
I think people underestimate kids and how quickly they catch onto the basic concepts of money and time required to acquire what they want. They fully know money isn’t infinite. And when you are a kid you don’t get instant gratification because you don’t have enough money, and often have to wait because it’s not up to you.
Well I guess rich kids just got everything instantly, but I don’t think that’s the case for most kids.
I too think its pants-on-head retarded to buy skins, but i remember being a kid and only wanting a certain toy because its popular right now. The amount of kids who wanted pokemon cards but didnt know how to play was unreal.
You didn’t learn budgeting in one go. I learned it in part by not being able to afford every video game I wanted. Part of how this generation of kids will learn budgeting is by only having a finite amount of V-Bucks and not being able to get every skin that they want, but they’ll keep playing Fortnite, and they’ll keep seeing new skins they want.

Their parents did. They are fucking stupid.
Those kids are fucking stupid.

Kids ARE stupid, yes.
They’re kids. They don’t know anything yet, and they want to play what their friends are playing.

You’re on a gaming forum. You didn’t play video games as a kid?
I still play video games. I’m an adult though. I pay for a game and play it. Paying for skins is stupid. FTP or paid doesn’t matter.
And we’re all proud of you, but try explaining that to a child.
You literally have to. That’s parenting. Good parenting at least . I bet you’re one of those parents that hands their kids an iPad too.

Maybe kids are earning vbucks by doing chores?
