Attn game devs: Fortnite Battle Royale is free-to-play done right

In a gaming world where loot boxes and pay-to-win systems are common, it makes sense to take time to appreciate a game that does free-to-play right.

In-app purchases are a thing that you just have to accept these days, and they're not even new when it comes to PC or console games. But in recent times the "loot box" strategy has come under increasing scrutiny.

Even recently, Ubisoft's Rainbow Six: Siege chief defended them as "the gift shop after the rollercoaster." And of course, outrage makes headlines, but it seems gamers are putting up with them.

Nevertheless, let's take a moment to appreciate a game that's both free and has microtransactions but that does it right: Fortnite Battle Royale.
