    Skins just don't have that charm that they used to have. Icon skins and collab skins are unfortunately the big thing now. With the removal of rarities, skins just don't feel the same anymore.

    Why aren’t people buying outfits as much?
    1. Never been a smart financial decision
    2. Epic is managing these item shops horribly
    3. Epic ignoring community feedback and popular requests
    4. Unnecessary additions to the game that worsen quality of life
    5. Price increase
    6. Toxic business practices- (deleting rarity to mask prices of individual cosmetics)
    7. Epic introducing overpriced new cosmetics that nobody asked for
    8. Locker UI being extremely inconvenient and a direct downgrade
    Need I say any more ?

      The comment below me shows my problem with this "Community". They cannot accept logical thinking, you HAVE to agree with them to be respected, logical thinking and opinions are despised in this cult. Yes, Fortnite does not have a community, it has a CULT. I was just saying something harmless and some kid has to take it like an insult. And yes believe it or not, Epic calls them Outfits, not Skins. Don't be like the kid right below me.
      If you are wondering what my original comment is, it is:
      Finally, someone who calls outfits outfits and not skins.

    I feel like most of the skins these days don’t feel as special as they used to and most of them look pretty basic because most rare skins I feel like when chapter 5 started every thing started to go downhill when there’s two new original skins and update and the rest are colabs and when at this point the shop is full of colabs of anime 24/7 and half the time the original skins don’t even come out there’s not a lot to look forward to especially with is the fact that 9/10 times we know the colab a season before it happens

    • @jakegoins3722
      @jakegoins3722 3 місяці тому

      I actually don't mind the collabs as someone who enjoys seeing my favorite character in the game. But it's understandably frustrating when it's the constant thing that releases since not everyone is going to be a fan of the thing they're collaborating with. What's been the most frustrating thing I'd say about this chapter is the fact that there's been people asking for certain collabs such as Street Fighter, Resident Evil, Attack on Titan, Naruto, etc and yet they keep cycling through the same old ones.
      I understand that it's probably due to licensing and these companies need to give Epic the okay before they can start selling them again but I imagine someone who is not a fan of anime probably hasn't been too thrilled with these shops as of late considering they keep putting in just Dragon Ball and JJK. Like, Attack on Titan hasn't been back since last year which is crazy.
      But regarding the original skins, yeah they could be so much better. I don't know what it is about them lately, they just don't seem as unique or interesting... they just seem kinda... bland? And this battle pass looks like it basically has rehashes of other skins like Megalo Don while cool just looks like Gunnar, Machinist is basically Great Value Jules, Rust is just a rust lord reskin with a metallica shirt,another brite bomber reskin, the power armor which I think is cool personally but obviously not everyone is a fan of Fallout, magneto in the secret skin slot which people are probably so tired of marvel at this point which is only going to be worse because next season is apparently marvel themed... again.
      The shop skins though, I can't remember the last time i went out of my way to buy an original skin. They're just not as memorable as they used to be. I think off the top of my head, the only skins I can remember that were originals that released this chapter in the shop are those birds because they were basically meme skins and PJ. Other than that it's been really meh.

    The locker has played a big part in the apathy for new skins. For me to even equip a different skin, I have to weigh that against the apathy threshold of if I want to deal with the Locker UI, and more often than not, I don't want to interact with it. So, the skin has to be very good (like the Titan and Employee skin) to justify my going through the locker to equip and make a preset.
    Personally I’ve not even been making presets for the emotes, wraps, or icons because it’s such a hassle to do it and have them match with the skin

  • @Agartha_Inhabitant
    @Agartha_Inhabitant 3 місяці тому +1

    The vast majority of the newer original skins are simply put eyesores. They feel like they've been jumbled together and almost don't feel "real". By looking at some of the older skins, you can instantly recognize what they're supposed to be. For Example: Survival Specialist is a soldier, Rapscallion is a thief, Hime is a samurai. The same can't be said for some of the newer skins though, it seems like every new shop skin is some sort of weird futuristic knight dressed in modern clothing.

    there is just too many collabs in the item shop at a time and they just barely put any of the original skins in the shop any more. like there is at least always 3 collabs in the shop at a time now and its kind of annoying. they also don't bring back rarer collabs that have been in demand but will put the marvel/star wars and shonen stuff in there every other week. also there have been several times when i want to buy a bundle with an original skin and they just refuse to put the entire bundle in the shop and its frustrating to have to wait for the rest of the stuff to come into the shop (if it even does bcuz some bundles have lobby tracks or loading screens so they are unlikely to just be in the shop by themselves). i also agree with the locker being abysmal. we NEED to annoy them about it at this point cuz its been literally half a year and they still refuse to change it.

    This is pretty similar for me, back in chapter 1 I bought every single emote. Emotes are my favorite type of cosmetic, I love Fortnite’s music so much so I’d happily pick all of em up.
    Fast forward to chapter 2, cool icon emotes these are pretty cool having real songs, seasons went on and less fortnite original emotes came. And most of the icon emotes I didn’t really like much at all. So I stopped doing that because I didn’t really support how emotes were being handled.
    I still buy the icon emotes I like but boy I miss the old style of emotes.

    I haven't bought skins in a while and mainly for a few reasons. 1. All the skins come back eventually that are original so the artificial rarity is pointless. 2. I dont feel incentivized to buy new cosmetics because collabs and exclusive/limited time only skins are the only ones that may not/won't come back. 3. Other games to buy things for and all the event passes and festival and stuff already take up money.

    How I see it personally is that you don't need to overcomplicate something or try justifying something when it comes to the cosmetic stuff in this game.
    If you like it and want to get it, then do. If not, don't. Ultimately, it's your money, you spend it how you want to.

    No idea why they got rid of the rarities in the first place when fortnite is known as a br in the first place, no ones first thought is the festival, lego, or rocket racing. Its always br and rarities gave fortnite that charm that other games like ow would specify the more interesting models.

    My reason for me is that as much as I like that they bring in cross overs tothe game, I am tired of the shop being 90% ads for other titles. Then when the Fortnite original skins are in the shop it seems to be the same rotation of skin you see....for a game with 1800+ skins the very little we see is very sad. This game didn't need other titles to carry them, but for some reason the push for a meta-verse is starting to litter the essence of what Fortnite was.

    I stopped caring about skins because I barley use them anymore I been playing since ch1 s1 so just getting skins feels like a waste of money and also emotes that I love are expensive along with jam tracks they are both 500 if Fortnite made v bucks cheeper or skin prices cheaper I wouldn’t mind buying skins again you can use emotes in almost every mode along with always being available but you can’t switch your skin mid match it’s just worth more money buying almost anything other than skins at this point for a player like me who’s sunken years into this game

    There are many reason people don't really care anymore, firstly rarity being removed takes away that charm the skins had, Midas being Legendary having that golden background made him feel more important, moreover, the reason cosmetics don't have that charm is because, there nothing to them, they're just action figures now, and people only get hype for skins if they have Storyline importance or the bare minimum of lore to them, like the High stakes club or the fox clan.
    In addition to, most people use female skins in the game, which ever since towards the end of chapter 3, are becoming less interesting, they lack appeal in some circumstances or lack diversity in clothing and body type, think, how many times have you seen a skin in a crop top showing off their midriff, not saying this is a bad thing but its kind of overdone, overall I believe chapter 2 season 5 and onwards to chapter 3 had a better pool of skins than chapter 4 and 5 has so far, during that time skins had relevancy and felt unique not to mention had way more diversity in outfits and body types, furthermore skins use to have more things around them that made them memorable, like loading screen dedicated to them telling a story about them (which they only seem to give to Bp and collab stuff now), like Zuri for example which showcases her kickboxing, which without that loading screen most people would have just assumed she was a fighter and nothing else, now you know she is also a kick-boxer meaning she is probably a mixed martial artist.
    Items shops are stale and barely change anymore, we went from 30 day rotations to 10 day rotations with the same sections showing up verbatim, not to mention skins that were tied to events like Halloween and charismas are just showing up whenever taking away any anticipation for their return, in conclusion chapter 4 and onwards has felt more niche for skins than before, for ever high stakes club there another 10 generic skins no one cares about.
    Lastly, people underestimate how important good Ui is, Fortnite towards the end of chapter 4 and onwards has been making massive changes that make everything feel too corporate and breaks the charm of the game, from smalls things like changing the font and introducing a new locker Ui that looks basic and uninspired, and making it such a pain to navigate the game menu, which they purposefully don't put their own game modes at the top, not to mention that made the Fortnite crew skins have the same things all the time corporatizing them too, we used to get music packs, loading screen, wraps, gliders, and unique edit styles on occasion but its all too predictable now.
