To Fortnite the gamers argue. Is the Battle Royale Game Any Good? Is it bad? Is another game from the genre better? Reddit user Jipptomilly from https://www.stageit.com/Fortgag doesn't care about the answers. He hasn't even tried Fortnite and still knows how to explain: "Fortnite is the best game I've never played".
I keep reading the claim that Fortnite's target group is a younger one in social networks or among our articles on the topic. Stories flit through the net again and again, showing how many young players cavort in the battle royale mode. It is precisely this young target group that is increasingly annoying older players - and I have to honestly admit that it is precisely this group of players that prevents me from continuing to play Fortnite.
I didn't play much Fortnite myself. But I still remember very well when I visited two friends of mine who like to play Fortnite a lot. I also had an argument with one of them, Lina, about whether the many changes in the game are excessive or helpful .
Anyway, I sat in their living room and watched live as numerous children lined up around my friend's character. Back then he had a skin that, as I later explained to me, was probably very rare. How did I know they were kids? They used voice chat and asked in cryptic English if my buddy wanted to sell his account - because of the skin. A skin - with a skeleton on it. OK.
You don't even have to be playing Fortnite to know that a lot of kids are engrossed in the hype surrounding the game. In our gaming podcast RUSH , I already told the story of my trip to the asparagus town of Beelitz. In case you missed this really good episode about the Fortnite phenomenon: I was sitting in a cozy beer garden, wanted to distract myself from work and saw a boy at the next table who was maybe 10 years old. He danced a Fortnite emote. Great!
And that's where my real-life encounters with Fortnite don't stop: on the 30th birthday of a friend of mine, we were out at a public barbecue area. Here, too, children romped about, all of whom also danced emotes from Fortnite. If I turn on Twitch at the end of the day, I'm not immune to the argument here either.
At the latest when I watched DrDisRespect in the stream as he played Fortnite with random players, it was clear to me: Fortnite players are incredibly young! As soon as the other player on the team turned on the microphone and spoke the first few words, I knew that the player hadn't even experienced the broken voice.
