    That’s one of the best things about Fortnite: It always keeps things simple.

    Fortnite is an ever-shifting entity, but strong footing has solidified it as a verified phenomenon with fast, fun gameplay and ubiquitous reach. Anyone can play it and have a great time, and although Save the World might get grindy and shotgun climb-and-dives might get a little tiresome, there’s real magic here along with the promise of more in the months and years to come.

    Fortnite has almost perfected the Battle Royale concept and added a touch of its own.

    All in all, Fortnite is a game many people can look forward to playing for the foreseeable future. Epic Games’ persistence and commitment to community feedback, latched on with low PC requirements, creative gameplay, and a Free to Play model, have made it one of the most successful games on the market today. With updates almost every week, there are always new things to try for new or returning players alike.

    As the saying goes: It's easy to learn, hard to master. Although a few shortcomings in the map design eventually surface and fatigue in looting can set in, Fortnite rarely fails at challenging you in unexpected ways, resulting in something more than just another typical last-person-standing shooter.

    After I situated myself in the controls, leveling and managing my squads, and making my way through some missions, Fortnite works. Missions are fun and engaging, rewards are plentiful, and it feels good to shoot things. Replayability is there too, as the enemies and resources are randomly placed when you load a mission. Forntnite may be slightly repetitive at times, but is overall an enjoyable experience.

    Fortnite suffocates what could be an incredible tower defense game beneath the some of the most tangential, egregious, impersonal progression systems we’ve seen.

At first, the construction beat was incomprehensible, but after all I played and built everything better and better. Before that, I played PUBG and they killed me there and I did not understand where, but here you can just build up and you are safe. Many people are confused by the cartoon graphics, but I think it's okay. Now it's season 17 and I'm still surprised by the updates that add new mechanics plus or minus every week. So I think the game deserves its hype. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Street Fighter X Fortnite: Ryu & Chun-Li At the start of the season, Epic Games took their player base by surprise with the introduction of the Kratos Fortnite skin. This was then followed up with other charaters from different games including Master Chief, Daryl Dixon, and Michonne.

    At the start, it seemed as though these would all be actual hunters, especially with the Predator mystery skin. However, we’ve had skins like Sarah Connor and Tron Legacy. A new portal opened up hours ago, and some data-miners assumed it would be WandaVision skins simply because of the fact that there were going to be two skins coming, male and female.. https://shrinke.me/eh7PtK

    Short: Save your money!

    This game has Potential but it is not used due to ignorant developers. The main parte of the game is grinding, but this grinding doesn't lead to any schematics. Husks or zombies dont drop anything. Only way to get forward in this game is by farming llamas.

    I bought the deluxe founders pack and opened around 150 llamas so far. Not one Single legendary hero and/or weapon. This is redicilous.

    If they implement drop rates with the husks, then this game can get a good one. But like this is is Really up to you,, to spend Hundes of Dollars to get forward. It is really a pure pay2win (-progress) title.

    Save your money...

    Fortnite is the worst game I have ever played in terms of gameplay, community, and ethics. It isn't even a legitimate video game, just a toxicFortnite is the worst game I have ever played in terms of gameplay, community, and ethics. It isn't even a legitimate video game, just a toxic candy-crush-like game that is an excuse for a corrupt company to take other peoples money. I have only played for less than 38 minutes, thank God, and watched hours of videos and research on the game but I know enough about it. When I think of humanity, I feel sad that this game is so popular; but I am happy and relieved about the amount of negative feedback it gets. #nofortnite Expand

    How is this critically acclaimed?!?! I understand why this game is so commercially viable, babies are dumb but from critics, actual video gameHow is this critically acclaimed?!?! I understand why this game is so commercially viable, babies are dumb but from critics, actual video game critics, i expected them to know this is the lowest point for gaming, a free to play battle royal with poor gameplay and efortless graphics which only exists for epic to get as much many as the industry can give. They literaly cooperate with hige disney owned franchises to sell more skins, it's a game for little kids, not for gamers. Expand

    while the concept and gameplay is fun almost mandatory micro transactions to progress in this game made me subtract 10 points out of 10.while the concept and gameplay is fun almost mandatory micro transactions to progress in this game made me subtract 10 points out of 10.
    this whole game is one cash grab from the developers, unstable game loads of crashes, frustrating weapon decay system that breaks your weapons faster than you can farm maths for a new one.
    an upgrade system that screams GIVE ME MONEY
