For the second time this week, Fortnite is being mentioned in the mainstream news for the wrong reasons as recently it was reported that Fortnite was one of the most cited words in recently filed divorce petitions (http://www.alienwarearena.com/ucf/show/1921250/boards/gaming-news/News/fortnite-causes-over-200-divorces). It seems that once you go mainstream, controversies will eventually catch up with you, no matter how good your game is.
