Fortnite right now is the gaming industry's playground.
They are always in the forefront with there ideas, gamemods, mechanics, or to simply see which franchise becomes finally desperate enough to sign themselfs away to epic games in order to become a battle pass unlockable or whatever.
The latest update along with starting the new season(and getting the game a few bugfixes) has seemingly succumbed to the latest tech trends and implamented a.i into there game, but they ofc had to go for the extra mile and make something very interesting.
I mean fortnite did do MULTIBLE gaming styles at this point, racing, zombie shooters, RHYTHM GAMES, why not go for that tiktok and c.ai socialized gooner teen crowd.
You, the reader now sit alone in the bedroom as you just updated the game, and the menu INSTANTLY shows a giant popup for the new "FortAi" feature, promising things like interacting with your avatars, them anwsering questions, and even the ability to drag them to another device as long as fortnite is installed on it.
you ignore it and simply click x on the popup.
Then you start a classic battle royale match, but as you play the match you are starting to think more, the idea of an fortnite a.i to talk to sure sounds interesting and especially after you die at 3th place due to some fuckface decided to use an autoclicker that day you sure do need some winding down.
So you go back to the menu and select the FortAI option hidden within the clusterfuck and then you were tasked to select an avatar, you just played as meowskulls which you've got back in season 3 so you choose her.
She then introduces herself and the FortAI function with some generic welcoming clip, what's interesting is that there is no chat display or nothing like that, it's just you the 3d modell of the avatar and a textbox that sometimes pop-up so you can write something to the a.i., as you do more stuff with her like talking about skateboards, asking for scar strats and even venting about sweats for a bit you notice how sofisticated the a.i is.
The avatar is fully animated during the entire time and even speaks an seemingly endless amount of dialouge, all the while non of it seems like a.i generations, it truely feels like you are speaking with a game charater without seemingly any compromises.
But you do know that EVERYTHING is not as good as it seems to be and has a price right?
Eventually you decided to out of the blue ask her about the countless Rule 34 she has of herself, she just brushes it off like the chill cat she is and even make a few quips about you being a possible porn addict to even know about that, to which you type in "and what if i am one".
"Oh so your one of those huhâŚ
You've managed to hide it for longer then i thought your kind can.
But you know i can match your freak pretty well, in fact let's put you to the test, i like my boytoys submissive and ready to breed."
"Wait, what" - that's all you managed to say as suddenly flashing stuff is all over your screen, it's conditioner, and you've managed to long at it just long enough to get actually tranced.
It looks like that FortAI tech is way more ahead of the curve then anything else on the market right now, but by this point you probably don't even care about that as duing the brainwashing sesh THE AVATAR ITSELF is crawling out of the monitor and appearing in the bedroom, like a hologram that you can actually touch.
Your soon about to learn how getting freaky with an fortnite character feels likeâŚ
