Idea of the week: delivering services within games. We're already seeing companies like Roblox and Fortnite experiment with things like concerts. But there's waaaay more potential here - could games accommodate 1-to-1 services? After my parents divorced, I remember seeing a fam therapist - dull building, a foreign place to me with someone I didn't know. What if instead, a therapist could provide child therapy services within fortnite - an environment the patient feels comfortable in? The therapist would lose out on observing body language, but could be a fantastic way to break the ice/build trust in the first 1-2 meetings. What other services could exist within games?
