Unfinished: EX: Fortnite 07/26/2017

This is probably the most overlooked part of this game and how early players perceive it. Everyone keeps seeing the really early parts of the game and never see the more complex evolved form.

Once you hit the Plankerton zone, requiring maybe 10 hours of play to achieve, the game types and difficulty start to ramp up and the challenge becomes far more fun. Building and Harvesting becomes more focused as you learn what comes from where and what you need.

Heck you didn't even see the actual persistent base defense which gives the best challenge to your building and defending skill.

That's a lot of UI on that there screen cap, mhhhhmmm.

That kind of sinks it for me. I enjoyed Destiny solo until i got to the point where I was grinding and couldn't do anything "new" by myself. (I played at launch). And I hung it up for good. If I can only get so far solo, and then it gets too hard and needs cash -- I'm not even going to pick it up... Plus Destiny got obtuse with a casual solo player not getting great loot or knowing how to get rare items (vendors appearing once a week asking for currency I didn't have). I get that some people want to look stuff up and watch youtube - i just want to play the game and not be useless because I'm so under-powered because I didn't read FAQs and "min/max" and log in every day. So this might be for those people, not me?

And by the amount of times he said "we depend on POWER PLAYERS and youtubers to advance our game" -- I'm thinking the odds of me having fun playing this solo past the initial area will be about zero...

Gun_Smoke-357 is a great new editor.

They didn't show it much, but it looks like you can sure pump tons of money into the microtransactions as well. And it's totally "buying power", not just cosmetic items.

The one good thing seems to be that you get extra copies of the game with the non-standard editions, so it's $40 all around.

But then they couldn't sell you as much stuff! Usually less and worse stuff, even... :(

I think this looks neat - at least interesting enough to try - but I'm beyond sick of buying games that also have a F2P design. Some cosmetics or DLC is okay, but this looks like a full on F2P game that also charges a $40 entry fee?

It was by far the worst aspect of that game x100000000

It'll be free to play next year when it's out of early access.

The marketing speak in these EX videos is always uncomfortable to listen to.

Yeesh, this is an ugly game. Stiff animation, lame character designs, clumsy environmental lighting design...it's shocking that Epic would release something that looks like this, honestly.

He can't just say "Fortnite," it HAS to be "The World of Fortnite." Just talk normal.

You only pay if you want early access. It IS a full-on F2P game, or at least will be when it hits 1.0.

This looks fun but I don't like the cartoony aesthetic and I have no friends to play with

POWER!!!!! PLAYERS!!!!!!!

It could use more UI elements for sure.

i want to know what the opposite of a power user is.

We love our weaklings, our dweebs, our carpetdwellers.

sooo is Darren Sugg now a multi-millionaire?
