In my neighborhood, not one person dressed up in a fortnite costume, and I'm proud of that. Because it wouldn’t make for a good costume. Like, have you seen Fortnite?

The thing is, Fortnite does do a lot of things correctly. It has an awesome, creative new game mechanic, and it had an interesting ARG. It even interacts with its fans a lot by making contests.

So why do people dislike it? Well, just like every game, Fortnite has some weak points. It has a very cartoony art style, and that doesn’t look very appealing when combined with the theme of a battle royale shooter. It’s also incredibly overrated. The game’s everywhere, even though it doesn’t offer a lot of new stuff.

My problem with it is the fact that it’s a shooter to begin with, and the fact that it incorporates a lot of meme “culture” in itself. I don’t blame the game for anything, but this is the kind of game that encourages the loud, obnoxious kids at school who love to make fun of every single thing. That’s not to say these kids are mean, it’s just that they are annoying and oftentimes incredibly disrespectful. They usually have a holier-than-thou attitude, and act like they never do anything wrong. Basically, the kind of thing that makes me want to punch a hole in the wall when I get home.

I’m not entirely against shooters, but I tend to hate shooter games that use actual guns instead of mythical weapons, especially in battle royale/PvP games or hunting games. I think it’s disturbing, violent, and it desensitizes people. The idea sounds sick to me. Mythical weapons are one thing, lifelike guns are another. It’s part of the reason why I hate Yandere Simulator too. I agree, Fortnite would not make a good costume. (Btw, me Gawain, and Icestorm are on KK tales chat, want to join?)
