-_small brain: _- fortnite is the future? no way! that game'll be dead in a few years and its developer is literally an evil corporation
-_galaxy brain: _- they aren't talking about fortnite concerts, they're talking about virtual concerts that happen in massively-multiplayer online games, of which the most famous are the ones that happen in fortnite. YOU HAVE REVEALED YOUR INABILITY TO PERFORM HIGH-LAYER ABSTRACT PATTERN-RECOGNITION TO US ALL, AND YOU ARE PROUD OF IT?

I hope immersive concerts thru video games and VR become more of a thing. I HATE TRYNA GET GOOD SEATS TO A LIVE SHOW, ONLY TO LOSE IT TO F----ING SCALPERS! I'm also kind of an introvert, who rarely has any friends or family that share the same music interests as I do, so getting to experience a concert without leaving my house would be AWESOME!
This was a really informative video, thanks Josh!

Maybe I'm just weird but I always thought the appeal of live performances was being in the same room as them? And some of these are prerecorded so you don't even get the live aspect either. I'm always for more accessibility, and really there isn't exactly another option in quarantine, but these just seem. empty? This is a great video though!

AJR did an amazing virtual concert at the end of last year, and as someone living in a city outside the US where we don't get a lot of big name shows (or smaller names, specially international ones) i really hope that this trend remains even after the pandemic ends!

Dude, this is such a fascinating topic. I'm not really a fan of Travis Scott but when I heard that concert happened I remember feeling like videogames as a medium were pushed forward that day. The possibilities really are endless. Brilliant!

I think there are certainly some interesting things about this step for concerts, but for me, a concert is about the energy of being in the space with the artist, which is why I also have never dug the arena style seating.

-imagine being able to possess Matt Flynn's body during Harder to Breathe. Imagine that drum audio getting louder and louder while you're trying to keep the band on tempo. -
You're literally describing Rock Band.

I went to two Minecraft concerts this year and, especially as a disabled person, they were some of the most positive concert experiences I've ever been a part of.

So from all I-ve seen, their replacement for the social interaction missing in online spaces. is get everyone to do their fortnight dances together. Ughhhhhhhh

I think that, in the unlikely event it's ever safe again, it would be neat to see artists go on tour, but include -virtual dates- within. Best of both, right?

you know what might make a good video, is if you compared the geneva convention and other warfare laws and applied it to something like Fire Emblem.

hot take: recorded music is consistently better than physical venues, and also live performances necessarily lack the polish of recordings

Second Life had this going on to a smaller extent years ago, many years ago. It still does but the platform's ancient.
