Fortnite’s Item Shop Has Become An Increasingly Annoying Labyrinth Of Frustration

Fortnite’s Item Shop Has Become An Increasingly Annoying Labyrinth Of Frustration https://ift.tt/CIqR0WL The Fortnite item shop has always been kind of annoying, because it's never had a consistent inventory you could browse like a normal store. There are more than 2,000 Fortnite skins that have been sold in the item shop, but only a few dozen are available on any given day. But Epic has never been content with just the FOMO angle--the company has been dinged by regulatory agencies all over the world for its "dark patterns" and coercive sale techniques.
