Youtube and Twitch are for kids, yet you take video games as seriously as you do. Something doesn't quite add up here...

I play too much and could review a lot.
You have opinions on a lot. There's a world of difference between having opinions and being able to effectively review stuff. Most of that difference boils down to being able to express those opinions cohesively and in a likable manner, meaning you and your "everyone who disagrees with me is an idiot" personality might struggle with it.

I have the skills to finish nearly all of the games I start.
Oh man, this guy can finish games. Everybody watch out, us mere mortals can't handle that kind of skill.

completely free to play, on every major console (PS4, XONE, Switch, iOS, PC, Mac), and is actually very polished.
shits gonna be around a whiiiiile.
Edit: I know that wasnt the question. Just saying, this aint a fad.
Fortnite(And BattleRoyale genre) is absolutely a fad, maybe even more so than Minecraft, being free doesn't change that. Minecraft is also still very popular among the pre/early teen range.
It's a fad in the sense that it won't be a popular style of game forever, since you can only play/watch so much Battle Royale before it gets boring, but between the accessibility and the fact that it's just a solid game in its own right, Fortnite's dominance of the subgenre is likely to be around for as long as that subgenre is. To that end, dismissing Fortnite itself as "just a fad" is a little over-simplistic.
Sure they are, at least in terms of streaming. Steam is the kiddiest crap out there.
Isn't a review more or less an opinion? You must be new to this.
It's true, so many people never finish games anymore. Short attention spans, quit when things get difficult, whatever. This is a large reason why I'm so far behind.
I'm sure it'll cool off eventually but agree BR is going to be a sub genre that won't completely disappear.
