Fortnite is no longer as popular as it once was. It has certainly leveled off in many aspects with other online games, but that doesn’t mean it’s a bad game.
Today it is very easy to build a narrative titled “dead game.” It’s enough to see Twitch viewing statistics and to mention that many YouTubers and streamers have ended their Fortnite adventure for good. Google’s trends are certainly not in favor of Epic’s production either.
On the other hand, it is not at all indicative of the state of the game itself. Today, many people are commenting that Fortnite has slowed down heavily in terms of changes, and novelties, but this just makes the whole production more friendly.
The no-build mode has changed a lot
It is known that there is always room for improvement, while Fortnite will certainly still be talked about. If only because first Epic introduced a no-build mode – which brought a bunch of people back to the game, while others tried it for the first time. And there’s another new Battle Royale mode on the horizon, with a first-person view.
Today, the no-build mode, the great stability of the novelties, and the lack of really strange decisions by Epic make for a relaxed weekend game, returning for a few days and not experiencing a shock every now and then from new items that completely change the gameplay.
Players comment that Epic listens to the community, makes the required changes and now Fortnite is probably in the most stable place for itself. Where it needs to be, it is the developers who are speeding up, in other areas they are letting go.
The fact that the popularity of Fortnite has declined does not mean that the game has become bad. Like everything, BR will also get boring at some point, and this is completely normal. In all this, it should also be mentioned that other online productions have similar problems, especially this year.
If you are wondering whether it is worth giving Fortnite a chance again, by all means, yes. At the same time, you don’t have to grind a lot, for example, in leveling a pass. You can join the game even after a few weeks and, doing challenges loosely, and get the 100th level of the pass.
There was a player in season 3 who unlocked the entire pass in 7 hours, simply by doing all the challenges one at a time. It took him about 20 games. Without any bugs, errors, exploits, and just playing.
