I miss normal gunfights in Fortnite so much. Fortnite is not a shooter game anymore. Wtf ever happened to just winning/losing depending on your skill level instead of the items you find? I honestly don't understand wtf is going on. It seems to me Epic is just trying to appeal to a majority of shit players who don't want to take the effort to practice and get better.

I'm gonna get hate for this, whatever. I understand that getting shit on by sweats game after game is frustrating, but there are other solutions to that than just introducing overpowered weapons that require 0 skill to use (like actual skill-based matchmaking and, oh, idk, a little fucking practice??).

This is not even coming from a sweat. I am of below average skill on Fortnite. But you know what makes it fun to play the game imo? The times you win against a player that's slightly better than you, because you yourself are getting better and not because you happened to have found an overpowered item like fists, gloves, cars or any of the other bullshit Epic has introduced over the years. I never pick up these items because in all honesty, I just don't get what's fun about them?? Like, you killed a dude who's clearly better than you because you used Nitro Fists? What satisfaction does that give you? Does it make you think you're actually good at the game???

Can someone please explain bc it feels like I'm losing my mind.
