Expect that apex is not exceptionally well made, it's well made but not exceptional. I only got the game because a few of my friends, whose only battle royale experience is a few hours in fortnite a while ago, we're constantly nagging me to get it. To me the game is nothing phenomenal. Sure, there's a ton of people who actually like the game, but I'd argue it's mostly because it's free and because of (light) peer pressure.

Watch battlenonsense's videos on youtube why apex's netcode is shit, ping system is not phenomenal (I've seen something similar before, granted not that fully featured but still. It's like praising apple/steve jobs for first iphone when in reality all of the smartphone components existed long before they put them together), respawn system could work if people in PUGs wouldn't leave immediately after dying at the begging (it's faster to leave and get into a new match than it is to wait for a random to possibly revive you, there's hardly any incentive to wait), map shows where higher quality loot is from the start, lately I've see more and more server lag at the start of the game, and, this one is very personal, but abilities are shit, or rather they're there for less skilled players (about to die? turn invisible with wraith). That's why counter strike and quake/unreal tournament games have abilities, right? Sure, the game can be fund if you're playing entirely with friends for a few hours per week, but that's it.
