    I don’t know that yearly chapters are the problem. The first year of Chapter 2 was significantly better than the second year, and Chapter 3 Season 1 was the best season in C3. I feel like Fortnite just focused too much on making every season unique, new, and filled with collabs, and they kinda just forgot what makes the game fun

    they need to pay more attention to battle royale and keeping that as the main game mode, overall , the 3 new game mode launches have been a pretty big flop with some having less players than maps like the pit. however if they spent more time on how long the chapters are, loot pool, map and battlepasses, i could see br becoming way more enjoyable.

    the point you made with chapter 1 housings being unique despite them being the same is kind of wrong IMO. I guess you could argue that the house in salty springs had the basement to it so that made it unique, but other than that the houses were mostly the same and bland (in greasy grove, pleasant park, salty springs.) One thing I credit retail row for is for having broken down houses. They weren't anything crazy but I think they made that specific POI more interesting. One thing I also credit chapter 2 for is that they made the POIS actually feel more unique by adding different stuff. (Pleasant park in ch2 s2, ch2 s3 and ch2 s3, salty in ch2 s3, ch2 s4, ch2 s5, and especially ch2 s6.) by adding the gas station in salty and changing pleasant around, they made them feel more separated from one another rather than an obvious copy n paste. But good video 👍

    • @g6nesis_
      @g6nesis_ 25 днів тому +1

      yes but as yu said with every house in chapter 1 being the same , there was always one thing about each poi that made it different . greasy with the diner , pleasant with the soccer field , retail with the stores , tilted with trump tower , misty meadows with the bridge , even loot lake being a literal house in a lake with random ass factories on the side . the more recent chapters dont have any distinct characterizations at any points of the map , there are no unique buildings in random poi's , there are no oddly large mountains with unique trees like in chapter 1-3 , there are no things like RV parks , camps , soccer stadiums or any other random locations that the first 3 chapters always tended to include . nowadays they usually will add a house or a gas station as a landmark N call it a day . the problem isnt the fact that everything is "the same" but its the fact that there isnt any personality or uniqueness involved in recent maps . it feels very uninspired N boring compared to the chaotic N random nature that fortnite used to have back in chapter 1 - chapter 3 . another problem is the UI and sound effects . the item shop literally looks like a website N all the gun pickup sounds jus sound like generic guns instead of the unique jingle they used to have in chapter 1 , no personality involved at all anymore .

    1:12 Trying to say that Snooty Steps, Hazy Hillside, and Pleasant Plaza are repetitive and have the same vibe is incredibly stupid when in the same breath you claim that the chapter 1 suburbs POIs were unique. Having 1 unique building doesn't change the fact that 90% of the POI was a flat suburban area that was copy and pasted 4 times.

      I was getting at the different vibes each chapter 1 POI had, generated by the surrounding environment. You can’t say retail row felt the exact same as salty springs. Stop looking at it from a technical standpoint. It’s more about the abstract concept of sense of place. Not sure why you feel the need to attack me because of this point.
