    while technically playable on switch you should play it ANYWHERE else for a much better experience. frame rate and resolution is very bad here.

    "It isn't that bad of a game"
    I said before some kid flew across the map and dropped the Hard R after killing me.

    This game is the worst thing ever. It has characters that are making kids think Fortnite invented them. On top of that, kids have gotten so desperate for vbucks that they steal their parent's credit cards. Why does anyone like this game?

    Gameplay
    The gameplay of Fortnite is very boring and easy. You have to control one character who can run, jump, build, and shoot. You have to survive against 99 other players who are trying to kill you. Sometimes you have to find weapons, sometimes you have to find resources, and sometimes you have to find a safe zone. The controls are very simple and basic, and the camera is very smooth
    Gameplay
    The gameplay of Fortnite is very boring and easy. You have to control one character who can run, jump, build, and shoot. You have to survive against 99 other players who are trying to kill you. Sometimes you have to find weapons, sometimes you have to find resources, and sometimes you have to find a safe zone. The controls are very simple and basic, and the camera is very smooth and stable. Sometimes you win, or lose, or quit. It’s not fun at all. It makes me want to yawn and roll my eyes.

    Story
    The story of Fortnite is very vague and pointless. It’s about a storm that creates zombies and a bus that drops people into a map. But then there’s also a lot of random events and characters that have nothing to do with anything. And then there’s also a lot of skins and dances that you can buy or unlock. And then there’s also a lot of challenges and quests that you can do or ignore. It’s very hard to care and it doesn’t make any sense. It makes me want to skip and ignore.

    Graphics
    The graphics of Fortnite are very ugly and childish. The characters look very cartoonish and unrealistic, especially their faces and their bodies. The environments look very bland and generic, especially the grass and the trees. The cutscenes look very silly and stupid, especially the dances and the emotes. The graphics are the only bad thing about this game. They make me want to puke and cry.

    Sound
    The sound of Fortnite is very quiet and boring. The music is very dull and forgettable, especially the lobby music. The sound effects are very weak and lame, especially the gunshots and the explosions. The voice acting is very rare and irrelevant, especially the announcer’s voice and the character’s voice. The sound is very bad for my mood. It makes me want to sleep and snore.

    Overall
    Fortnite has also made the world a worse place. It has corrupted the youth and the culture. It has promoted violence and addiction among young people, who become obsessed with the game and neglect their education and social life. It has also stolen dances and songs from other artists without giving them credit or compensation. It has also influenced other media and celebrities to pander to the Fortnite audience, such as Marvel movies or Ninja.

    Fortnite is a cancer on society and culture. It should be banned and erased from existence. It is a threat to humanity and civilization. It makes me scared and disgusted. I give it negative infinity stars out of ten.

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Don’t play this game. Play something else instead. Like Minecraft or Roblox . Those are good games that I like. They have creativity and originality in them. And they’re funny and fun! Play those games instead! Trust me, you’ll thank me later!

    One of the best multiplayer experiences on the Switch – if not the best! [Issue #35 – September/October 2018, p. 24]

    Fortnite brings a lot to the table with season 5, and while it is certainly worth your time and money, I just wish it could be a tad bit smoother before calling it “perfect”.

    Fortnite Battle Royale delivers a perfect balance in gunplay, progression and sandbox elements. No wonder it may be 2018's gaming phenomenon. We even like the way microtransactions allow players to enter new challenges and earn cosmetics for the game, but don´t alter the core mechanics.
