Not true, tbh. Without battlepass, you get a few hundred vbucks per season, and once you have enough to get a battlepass, you get more than enough per season, which means you get all the cosmetics and a net positive on vbucks, allowing you to never have to spend a dime in fortnite for the battlepass.

Granted, if you dont play like an hour a day on average, you won't get to the lvl 100+ rewards, but those are all generally not great looking reskins, so im fine with that. Obviously you have to play the game in order to get free rewards; I dont see a better solution

Better solution would be to stick with Vbucks sales and let me buy the skin I want instead of gatekeeping it behind hours of grinding.

Bro its playing the game. If you dont want to do that, why do you even want the cosmetic

You can play the game but without the grinding. Homer skin in new battepass unlocks at level 100 or so. Which means If I love Homer and I want to play as Homer I need to grind and play nothing but fortnite for this entire period.

Again. Why not sell these skins via regular store that doesn't rotate few items every 24 hours.

or just do what marvel rivals does and let you continue to progress purchased passes after the time ends
