Why Apex Legends died
It's not fun to play anymore, it's only fun to play for a month then you get bored of it because you have seen all the guns and all the powers and you won so what do you do next? Level the lackluster...

Wait a minute. You're quitting Apex because you're bored with it. Only to go back to an old single-player game you have completed a billion times before? ๐

But I want to try a poison melee build. See what that was? It's being excited to try something different. Something I haven't felt in Apex for a month now. Also it's not just me quitting, the player count dropped like a rock after they hit 50 million players, viewership on twitch and YouTube dropped like a rock as well everybody is sick of it, if you don't think so you are as delusional as Fallout 76 fanboys. Don't worry, I'll come back and everyone else will come back if Respawn makes us with a real update worth playing none of this slow grinding Battlepass with nothing in it. It's like the ingame equivalent of riveting in a Machine shop all day and I know that because I did it when I hit rock bottom, my sholders still hurt from it
I don't, for a minute, believe that Respawn was ready for how big AL got in that amount of time.
The pace of updates has been abysmal and any developer who was at AT ALL familiar with the BR genre would have known that you can't stretch content updates out like this without significant blowback.
They just weren't ready.
They'll make it up in the coming months, but for now, we're stuck with the same maps, guns, and Legends.
YAWN.
And cheater problem too.....
To be honest, in my opinion, I say apex is better and more stable than fortnite, PUBG, etc.. because you can do this. You CAN try different builds, different team compositions with your friends.... Want to hold down a position with pathfinder and caustic and just have a * ton of gas traps ๐ฟ and a * ton of zip lines? Want to go full speed team with wraith, octane, and bloodhound? want to go gas camping team with lifeline, gibraltar, and bangalore and then just wreck the last squad with ultimates and grenades? you can try so many combinations of teams, or strategical abilities, it makes the game far from boring in my opinion :P
P.S. at least in apex legends you cant build a 200 foot tower when someone starts shooting you, *COUGH* *FORTNITE* *COUGH* >.<

Yes, finally someone else that sees the beauty behind the game. People that get bored playing games so easily are probably like that due to short attention spans lmao. but yes, the different gun combinations, strategies, and squad builds is what i find really makes this game so much better than fortnite. Always hated how youd shoot someone and they'd turn into a freaking skyscraper. Apex Legends will develop over time, so ima stay here:eahigh_file:

Going back to your favourite game is like a bird flying back to its roost. Game producers know that players have more than one game to play and that they have favourites. Keeping them interested is like feeding birds. You have to put some food out for them and down they come to feed. But gamers, like the birds, are easily startled and quick to take flight. Then off they go back to where they usually roost. The downside to dealing with gamers, and birds, is the constant maniacal squawking.
Here's a video of gamers making up their minds which game they want to play:
the game isn't dead but it is dying at a speed Ive never seen before. Just look at the google trends graph!
https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=today%203-m&q=apex%20legends
It's incredible!
๐ What on earth does the Google trends graph have to do with anything at all? That is in no way indicative of the number of players playing this game.
The game isn't in any way dying, no more so than any other game a couple of months after release.
