The thing is, many people hate fortnite before even playing. I thought it was kiddy and stupid as well.
Yes, it’s still kiddy and stupid, but it’s also very fun, especially in team play. It feels more fluid, more counter play, tools to use in combat, traverse, then more rigid one like war zone.
If you look at war zone, you add armor plate to “heal”. If you are 1 bar, you add u til 3 bar. If there is armor plate, you pick up automatically.
In fortnite, there are many healing each have pro and con, and you have to decide which to pick, & it’s not a simple choice is better than other. You are given 5 slots between everything, making it a hard choice between weapons, gadgets, heals. There are lot of depth dispute looking cartoony.
One other thing I like is the game is far less campy. There are a lot more open areas, and structures can be destroy reveal more entry, escape points.
