Apex Legends will not impact Fortnite

This is from the official Fortnite forums by me there: /www.epicgames.com/fortnite/forums/battle-royale/royale-with-cheese/990853-the-next-three-seasons-of-fortnite-must-ensure

The next three Seasons of Fortnite must Ensure
Seasons 8, 9 and 10, doubtfully, are the best times for the King of Battle Royale games to resurge its former popularity and defeat EA's Apex Legends without sententious odds. However, Epic Games can only achieve that much from March to October under major pressure, even if there are no issues from 2018. Balance, context, originality and willingness should be their primary objectives this year, ensuring neither rivals take down their game on all platforms. I call for my fellow players to commit this post and help Epic Games conquer EA.
 

My post here is a protest against Apex Legends, EA's so-called version of Battle Royale to rival Epic Games' Fortnite. I know EA long enough to know their history of failures, from Command & Conquer when Westwood Studios was acquired to Star Wars: Battlefront II when Loot Boxes were being sold in-game, when EA Sports could not look any better, and now C&C: Rivals on mobile devices. If they want to attempt at being victorious, then so be it. Talk all you want about these issues, but Fortnite will rule again, and ultimately, you will fall.

  • I personally disagree. I believe Apex Legends, has a chance. That in itself can provide attention to detail on how they proceed to adjust and adapt as Fortnite did. With updates. Changes that impact the game and keep players going and new players joining.  As someone who played Fortnite since before Seasons existed. The game got stale and boring. I stopped playing since last season. Mid-through I just got tired of the game. It got boring. I went to Rainbow Six Siege, I enjoyed that game and then out of nowhere. Apex Legends appeared. A refresher. Something new. 

    A simple assessment, based on my personal experience as to why I think Apex Legends is better than Fortnite. 

    Have a nice day! 

  • That does not explain the difference between Apex Legends and Fortnite.

    Again, me from the Fortnite forums:

    Apex Legends, taking place in the Titanfall universe, has several different classes of playable characters to choose, with more emphasis on team-based combat, current lack of signature mech vehicles, and different methods of securing supplies. Fortnite has the ability to build out of supplies, in addition to many diverse features, and now a Creative mode.

    Not to mention theming.

    Building is not a plus and many who played thought it was stupid but continued to play because it was popular

  • Fortnite is unique compared to other Battle Royale games, like PUBG, Realm Royale and Warframe, which do not have anything that makes these special either.

    We're focused on Apex Legends and discussions surrounding that game on these boards. I'll be locking this post as this discussion belongs on another forum/medium.
