Exactly my point, he’s arguing fortnite isn’t creative because “there is no story behind it” right now and “that it was used to promote it’s other game” (the Save the World counter part) and I’m talking about the gameplay mechanics. I brought up Apex Legends, the most diverse battle royale gameplay wise I could think of, as a comparison. Please note I do not think either game is bad, but the whole “fortnite is not creative” and “all you do is shoot and build” argument is just stupid and provides nothing. I have not seen other battle royales implement a build mechanic as well as fortnite has.
I even told him that none of these games are bad, but his argument for fortnite being a terrible game isn’t a great one since it can be applied to literally EVERY OTHER BATTLE ROYALE and get THE SAME RESULTS.
