@todayshow: More than 600,000 players of Fortnite will receive refunds after federal regulators said Epic Games, the developer behind the popular game, “tricked” people into making unwanted purchases. The Federal Trade Commission announced Monday that it is sending more than $72 million to impacted players in the U.S., with additional refunds to be distributed at a later date. #TODAYShow

I remember back in the 90s when you had a Nintendo and didn’t have to buy items to make the game more interesting- you just had to make it to the next level. Those were the good old days. 😭
