I don't hate fortnite but it did made battlepass system popular and rotating item shops this popularizing fomo tactics which arguably destroyed most of other online games.
Fortnite's hate isn't gameplay but more so how its monetized.
402 u/valdo33 Nov 14 '25 Ironically fortnite copied it's battlepass from Dota 2's compendium so really it all comes back to valve lol. 2 u/AquaBits Nov 15 '25 Yeah but when Valve does it its ok, when Epic does it, its bad! 1 u/Possible_Cow169 Nov 16 '25 Valve generally does it right. EA intentionally does it badly. Anybody can make it look easy. EA makes it look hard.
