Christmas Eve saw the Fortnite community transfixed with a high-profile argument between Dakotaz and Ninja, as the two clashed over the former\u2019s criticism of Fortnite. Dakotaz has been both an outspoken fan and critic of the game and its developers, despite continuing to play it on Twitch. In response, Ninja suggested that streamers who constantly criticize the games they play are detrimental to their success. He also said that the streamers should simply play other games, instead of sticking with a game they find frustrating. Ninja had previously replied to a Dakotaz tweet critical of Fortnite, and the Twitch streamer took issue with Blevins and hit back furiously, blocking him on Twitter and telling him: \u201cNot everyone\u2019s gonna kiss your ass.\u201d Read More: How to unlock free Snowy Pickaxe in Fortnite &#8211; On December 26, Dakotaz was reading a donation message, in which the viewer says that their 9-year-old \u201cwon\u2019t quit the game because of your opinion.\u201d This was one of Ninja\u2019s concerns; that young, impressionable players will mindlessly echo the opinions they hear from streamers. \u201cHere\u2019s the crazy thing,\u201d Hoffman said. \u201cMy opinion wasn\u2019t that bad, you know what I\u2019m saying? All I said was \u2018Fortnite\u2019s hot garbage right now\u2019. That\u2019s all I said. Some people were acting like I said \u2018yo, Fortnite needs to die\u2019\u2026 \u2018this game is unhealthy for all of us\u2019.\u201d \u201cI said like four words,\u201d Hoffman continued. \u201cLike, what? I said four words! You would\u2019ve thought I did a campaign and a protest against Fortnite. That\u2019s the day and age we live in. People get triggered over four words.\u201d While Dakotaz does not specifically mention Ninja, it\u2019s hard to imagine he\u2019s referring to anyone else. The pair\u2019s public argument even accrued the attention of Turner \u2018Tfue\u2019 Tenney. Tenney and Blevins have argued in the past over the ex-FaZe Clan star\u2019s negativity towards Fortnite. Dakotaz finished: \u201cYou would\u2019ve thought I gathered 14,000 people and started protesting outside their building. You would\u2019ve thought I did that.\u201d The argument has split fan opinion. Some argue that Dakotaz is well within his right to criticize the game he is playing, and even suggest Blevins refuses to criticize the game for fear of hindering future collaborations or a relationship with the developer. Others argue in favor of Ninja, and say that people like Dakotaz, who regularly criticize Fortnite, would be better off being more positive, or changing game. Regardless of the community\u2019s opinions, Hoffman appears slightly surprised that his comments have sparked such a debate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dakotaz can\u2019t believe Ninja was \u201ctriggered\u201d by his Fortnite opinion Twitch streamer Brett \u2018Dakotaz\u2019 Hoffman has criticized members of the Fortnite community who have taken issue with his comments about the game, particularly fellow streamer Tyler \u2018Ninja\u2019 Belvins.
