@@Prototype60 Tech-focused developers like Epic Megagames and ID Software have a long-standing tradition of making a "tech-demo game" to show off their new engine. For Epic, it was the Unreal and Gears of War franchises (don't ask me which specific games), now replaced by Fortnite. For ID, it was Commander Keen, Wolf3D, Doom, Quake, Quake 2, Quake 3, Doom 3, Rage, and Doom 2016. Yes, the first Commander Keen game was a showcase for John Carmack's Adaptive Tile Refresh side-scrolling engine, which not only got used for that trilogy, but upgraded for a further four Keen games, and licensed out for several others, including Apogee's Bio Menace, where the usage is pretty obvious in the menus.
I started playing Fortnite again a couple weeks ago after not playing since 2018. I tried for the last few weeks to rationalize it and say “I don’t like the game I just want Lara Croft” or “I just like creative mode, not the BR” but I’ve found myself just enjoying myself in general and trying to convince myself I don’t because of the stigma around the game. This video has finally just let me admit that yes, I enjoy the game, and there’s nothing wrong with that. And now I realize how stupid it was to try and convince myself otherwise.
I remember playing Season 1-7 and then taking a break with season 8. I came back during season 9/10 and was really thrown off by all the futuristic themes. I got the idea that the "good ol days" of Fornite were over. I came back during Chapter 2, Season 2 and I realized I was very, VERY wrong. It's a surprisingly good game that gets alot of hate just because of its fanbase.

It's a genius move. Not just because they monetized it but also the sheer quantity of data they must be getting from it. It's exactly what a developer needs.
@Doom Posterior Oh please, don't be such a doomer. While I don't agree with people that do that (pay to increase their kids skill), I understand as to why. Fortnite has become one of this upcoming generation's social gauges, so there is some social gains tied to skill. If you do poorly, kids make fun of you, if you do well, you get accepted into social circles. It's kind of dumb, for sure, but it's not any different than previous generations' infatuations with fads and other stuff. I still remember when I was growing up and for a hot minute my school was all about Halo, and the way things turned out (kids that weren't very good were more or less left out of invites to play at other kids houses) more or less corresponds to how things turn out for kids today with Fortnite.

I reinstalled fortnite a few days ago after playing it a ton from seasons 1-5 and damn it has really changed but almost only for the better, just a genuinely fun game
Yeah,i quit the game in c1s8 and reinstalled it in c2s2.tbh,c2s2 was way more better that c1s8.the only thing epic needs to do right now is listen to their community's suggestions to make the game better.The only thing that ruins this game is its toxic playerbase.On top of that,fortnite right now is like more of a competitive game because of all the tournaments and the addittion of arena mode.Overall,it might not be as great as it used to be,but i still have fun
Bro after read your comment I went to go check out articles on this and what the hell. The landscapes and visuals are amazing in The Mandalorian I can't believe it was produced using Unreal Engine woww
That explains how my partner and his kid are still playing this game for this long. I was wondering what challenges they were talking about since I just assume it was just kill shots and building stuff
I ain't got a bad word to say about Fortnite. I don't play it, it's not my jam, but it's a game that sucked in all the annoying players of PvP games and kept them over there. I like the licensesing they do and the community is in its own world that doesn't spill over and annoy people.
I wish Fall Guys would get popular. I got back into it a couple weeks ago and the new seasons have awesome maps. I think it’s gonna make a comeback, not to the level it was before but it will get a steady fan base.
I think it's pretty neat that it's basically a public beta for Unreal Engine, I really can't think of anything else like that and it keeps new stuff coming to the game
I don't even care about most of the topics on this channel, but I enjoy the videos because how vulgar yet funny, they are created and narrated. There are only 5 TH-camrs with the skill to talk about anything and make it entertaining, that I've found and this is one....and I follow over a thousand channels. But in saying that, I learned here that Fortnite (a game I don't play) is essentially an open world beta-test.
I wish I could enjoy fortnite. People rip on it, and that's fine, I just genuinely can't enjoy the game at it's core. I don't like Battle Royales anymore, and more importantly, I really don't like building. I hop back in every so often to see if the game is any fun, but no matter what I always get dunked on by some max level tryhards that pay the game like it's their job. And don't get me wrong, I don't mind a skill curve in games, I've been playing Rainbow Six Siege, a game with one of the most egregious and ridiculous Skill Curves out there, and I have fun even when I'm losing, but I just really don't like the way building is handled in Fortnite. If they had put a building delay, where after every wall you place you have to wait a moment before placing another wall, I could've enjoyed the game, but until that happens, I won't. The most annoying part is that when I play custom modes where there is limited/no building, I really love the game. The controls are smooth and it's satisfying to get kills. It's just the building that ruins it which is a real shame.
Ive gained some new found respect for fortnite. Before I saw it as a piece of shot game only for kids, but now I see it as a necessary evil to keep those kids in their own community and so that it can lead to the development of better games and so that those games can be even more creative.
@@v3prhunterkiller828 pshh Warzone and MW are pretty similar to Fortnite tbh. Fortnites more appealing to younger children but Warzones where the tweens and young teens go.
2:33 This is funny as FNBR literally fed off STW’s corpse for years since launch, they give lots of care to the younger brother of the game but not the original project.
I'm 28, and I love Fortnite. It's got a really great gameplay loop with an absurdly high skill gap. I've been playing since the beginning, and I'm still not where I want to be. Whereas 6 months into any COD, you kinda feel like you got everything out of it

13:00 that’s actually pretty cool seeing as fortine is actually a glorified testing ground that means to some extent each update is an actual new innovation and something truly new you can play at least in unreal engine
I wrote off Fortnite for the reason you mentioned. Battle Royale and Multiplayer just don't appeal. But what you said after surprised me, and reminded me of a game I've been loving since it's come out. Genshin Impact. It's what you talked about being good about Fortnite now, except it's an actual single player game. With actual thought and effort put into the quests, characters, and lore.
The best part about the battle pass is that as long as you play enough to level up and save your precious vender dollars you never have to pay for it again
@@CarrotConsumer That’s certainly *a* way to look at it. I think it’s a mix of them being scummy, and getting people to push to that very first purchase. Once you’ve paid some money on the game, you’re more likely to spend more because you’re invested. They balance that, with both the reluctant playing to re-earn the battle pass, and that it can easily be seen as pro-consumer, as you *technically* only need to spend $10 to get quite a lot of content(or even $0 because you can just earn vbucks very slowly for free if you’re that dedicated 200-300 per season)
@@CarrotConsumer jesus christ thats so fucking cynical. games need to make money, the fortnite battlepass is actually fun and you really only need to pay once. out of all the designs, the fortnite battle pass is great. name a game where you get more bang for your buck
I remembered watching your vids I searched for something but couldn't find anything and then one day this vid popped up in my recommended some how. Well subscribed.
I actually re-downloaded the game on my PS4 and Switch a few days ago since like Season 4. I'm enjoying the game again but the bots are annoying. There's no challenge since it's really obvious that I can kill braindead bots instead of actual players. Hopefully I will encounter less bots in the ranked mode soon.
Wait wow I never noticed that knowledge hub doesn’t do history videos anymore and is now a video game channel I’m looking at the video feed and I had no idea it changed.
I originally only got fornite because I heard somebody talking about it, I thought it was a paid game so I said it seemed interesting and I might check it out later, then he said it was free. I loved how they kept on adding more and more content, and how that one basically useless area in the middle of the map with two warehouses got hit with a meteor and turned into a hotspot for everybody to rush to like tilted towers, or how there were small spots like one marking me and my friends saw that we were trying to figure out what it meant but it turned out just to be something from half life 2.
Season 2 Chapter 2 was best fortnite. S6 rn is up there tho. The crossplatform feature is pretty much the only reason I play cos me and my xbox buddies can do a couple matches on weekends. But it really is a decent game and I love the bows in this update and I love any form of alterations of weapons you can make (S2 and S6 both had this feature) and I love doing wacky shit like shockwave grenading my way out of danger or driving a boat on land as a mini tank. TLDR; Minecraft good, Fortnite also good
Fortnite wasn't a cashgrab even when it released, the game was literally in early acess with an entire adventure mode which was under paid early acess, using the battle royale mode as basically a demo

Got into Fortnite very recently, and honestly, it's like playing Mario 64, it's relaxing. Also, played COD Warzone, and that gameplay feels rigid and too realistic.
I would like it to be known that I will say to myself at least weekly “Minecraft good. Fortnite bad. Lol” because of that video you made 2 years ago that I haven’t forgotten about
I tried to get into Fortnite a couple years ago to play with my teenage relatives. It was kind of fun at first, but as mentioned, battle royale games are just _really_ boring. It eventually got to the point that I'd just log in for a couple hours once a week to do the weekly challenges and that's it. At that point, the other players were just a nuisance rather than why I was playing, and it just felt like, "What's the point of this?" Haven't touched the game in quite awhile and really have no interest in going back. My lack of interest aside, my main gripe with Fortnite is that it's designed to be addictive (which I could feel when playing even though I didn't really like the game). Sure, tons of games are like that, but it feels damaging to me when it's a game whose userbase is almost entirely children. They don't have the life experience to recognize when it's time to take a break because a game is sucking them in too much. However, I will admit that using Fortnite as a beta testing ground for Unreal Engine is genius.
Every mention of Kotick had me confused, I dont know if I should laugh at what is probably one of the worst PR disasters we've seen a while coming from the world wide PR disaster champion Blizzard, or feel sad at how Blizzard seems to somehow hit a new all time low every 2 months.
Hey man, the links to the second channel's video are fine, but the link in the description directly to your second channel is broken FYI Edit: And the spotify link? Seems like they just end in ... and that might have borked them.
There’s literally no game as stimulating as fortnite. I understand why people can’t get over it’s high skill ceiling though. It can definitely be a not noob friendly game
That would be a skill floor. It's funny, pretty much every competitive game has a massive floor for entry. Smash had SO many unwritten rules you need to learn to be any good at it, I had always considered myself a decent smash player before I got to college, I did decent whenever I played but I never went to tournaments or anything. I got DESTROYED when I went to the smash club in college. It's similar for league too, heck it's even similar for Yugioh. To keep enough dedicated people around you need a very high skill ceiling. Which makes the effective bar of entry, the skill floor, higher as people get better at the game.
@@stuckonaslide That’s bound to happen, people play game, people get good at said game. The SBMM and the ability to get famous and make money off it is what accelerated this wave of pro-like players.
I’m still an avid player of the game, and I appreciate the devs putting time and care into the game, but there are a few mechanics they can set straight between the public and ranked modes, other than that I think the games amazing

@@poweroffriendship2.0 the vicious cycle of videogames.
@@poweroffriendship2.0 Reddit and fortnite is dumb
As a person who so depised Fortnite, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em because I had to get that Kratos skin and Spongebob suit for Fall Guys :0
I reinstalled fortnite a few days ago after playing it a ton from seasons 1-5 and damn it has really changed but almost only for the better, just a genuinely fun game
Yeah,i quit the game in c1s8 and reinstalled it in c2s2.tbh,c2s2 was way more better that c1s8.the only thing epic needs to do right now is listen to their community's suggestions to make the game better.The only thing that ruins this game is its toxic playerbase.On top of that,fortnite right now is like more of a competitive game because of all the tournaments and the addittion of arena mode.Overall,it might not be as great as it used to be,but i still have fun
So Fortnite has become a public Unreal Engine 4 tech demo?
Always has been.
When i saw that picture of Bobby i was just super confused for a moment "Wait what does SsethTzeentach have to do with this"
Hey hey people
All of the clips of the Muppet Show are hilarious. I salute you my fellow gamer.
We got a, number one victory royale. Yeah fortnite we 'bout to get down
(Get down)
Ten kills on the board right now,
just wiped out Tomato Town
Mr President get down
Knowledge Hub is my guilty pleasure
KnowledgeHub is *OUR* guilty pleasure.
DEAR LORD! He Truly Has Gone Mad!
Basically you had a Minecraft revelations where you realize the game's actually good and fun, and not just babby game for babies.
That's a great point. The freaking Mandalorian was completely shot in unreal IN CAMERA in real time.
Bro after read your comment I went to go check out articles on this and what the hell. The landscapes and visuals are amazing in The Mandalorian I can't believe it was produced using Unreal Engine woww
That explains how my partner and his kid are still playing this game for this long. I was wondering what challenges they were talking about since I just assume it was just kill shots and building stuff
I thought about playing fortnite exactly once, then decided not to, this video made me think about it again.
Can't see how it's so intensely hated as a game(the community can be wild) when it's been fun all the way up to me leaving it
The new season do be pretty fun tho 😳
I ain't got a bad word to say about Fortnite. I don't play it, it's not my jam, but it's a game that sucked in all the annoying players of PvP games and kept them over there. I like the licensesing they do and the community is in its own world that doesn't spill over and annoy people.
yep
Yeah. I guess Fortnite finally got the praise it deserves but still I think Redditors started to become more aware of this and I'm worried.
You lie. There are annoying players in all kinds of games.
I wish Fall Guys would get popular. I got back into it a couple weeks ago and the new seasons have awesome maps. I think it’s gonna make a comeback, not to the level it was before but it will get a steady fan base.
I enjoy playing it since I got it
@@anthonyregino3616 I do too, it’s definitely no where near as popular as it was at launch though.
I think it's pretty neat that it's basically a public beta for Unreal Engine, I really can't think of anything else like that and it keeps new stuff coming to the game
fun fact in some versions of fortnite it says it's an open beta
I don't even care about most of the topics on this channel, but I enjoy the videos because how vulgar yet funny, they are created and narrated. There are only 5 TH-camrs with the skill to talk about anything and make it entertaining, that I've found and this is one....and I follow over a thousand channels.
But in saying that, I learned here that Fortnite (a game I don't play) is essentially an open world beta-test.
This channel peaked long after the normies stopped watching and the gamers came in for the good shit
I wish I could enjoy fortnite. People rip on it, and that's fine, I just genuinely can't enjoy the game at it's core. I don't like Battle Royales anymore, and more importantly, I really don't like building. I hop back in every so often to see if the game is any fun, but no matter what I always get dunked on by some max level tryhards that pay the game like it's their job.
And don't get me wrong, I don't mind a skill curve in games, I've been playing Rainbow Six Siege, a game with one of the most egregious and ridiculous Skill Curves out there, and I have fun even when I'm losing, but I just really don't like the way building is handled in Fortnite. If they had put a building delay, where after every wall you place you have to wait a moment before placing another wall, I could've enjoyed the game, but until that happens, I won't.
The most annoying part is that when I play custom modes where there is limited/no building, I really love the game. The controls are smooth and it's satisfying to get kills. It's just the building that ruins it which is a real shame.
BR games are boring
@@Lucis33 CLASSIC MULTIPLAYER
If you wanna try something Else in fortnite and you dont like br do creative you Can do way more and modding is on it’s way to it
@@lores1382 yeah, as I said, when I'm playing Custom games it can be really fun sometimes, but it's unfortunately not what I want or am looking for
Knowledgehub’s coming out video.
Ive gained some new found respect for fortnite. Before I saw it as a piece of shot game only for kids, but now I see it as a necessary evil to keep those kids in their own community and so that it can lead to the development of better games and so that those games can be even more creative.
Saying that Fortnite is containing kids from other communities is rubbish. I played warzone and modern warfare.
@@v3prhunterkiller828 pshh Warzone and MW are pretty similar to Fortnite tbh. Fortnites more appealing to younger children but Warzones where the tweens and young teens go.
@@Isaacreeper dividing games into age groups is pretty cringe. The biggest target demographic is money.
@@v3prhunterkiller828 I can agree with that
2:33 This is funny as FNBR literally fed off STW’s corpse for years since launch, they give lots of care to the younger brother of the game but not the original project.
It sounds like he let’s his eyes rests on every single word and reads them up, instead of just letting them swim through the manuscript.
I'm 28, and I love Fortnite. It's got a really great gameplay loop with an absurdly high skill gap. I've been playing since the beginning, and I'm still not where I want to be. Whereas 6 months into any COD, you kinda feel like you got everything out of it
Now this is a funny guy
I would've redownloaded Fortnite, however I remembered that before chapter 2 my pc is already struggling loading the game and it takes longer for my wifi to update the game, than for a kilonova to kill humanity
I'm assuming you mean supernova right?
@@CoolBird420 No, a supernova is just a regular star exploding while a kilonova is 2 neutron stars colliding into each other causing an explosion that is so powerful that it fully negates the power of a black hole.
@@robbieaulia6462 Ok sorry for the misunderstanding
3rd world problems, hello brother
Too bad fortnite "Save the World" is a dead game.
Save The World is more accurately on life support. Sure, people play it, but no significant content is coming.... At least for now.
@@DonnieDoodles StW was on life support since 2019. The last significant content was the war games. Any other new content was small story events, new heroes with new passive using recycled abilities and StW own seasonal battle pass. Its recycled content you want to do if you wanna past homebase power level 130. The only StW content creator that still plays is A1_getDisMoney. He's @ 134.
@@necroticfang6708 Personally, I'd argue life support status came with 13.20 saying the game was "finished" and removing the early access tag.
I'm just hopeful the move to UE5 with the rumor that STW is being launched as a separate application with a separate dev team will breathe new life into the game.
13:00 that’s actually pretty cool seeing as fortine is actually a glorified testing ground that means to some extent each update is an actual new innovation and something truly new you can play at least in unreal engine
It looks like its now everyones guilty pleasure
I noticed this since fortnite's chapter 2 launch, and have been calling it "Unreal playground" ever since
I wrote off Fortnite for the reason you mentioned. Battle Royale and Multiplayer just don't appeal.
But what you said after surprised me, and reminded me of a game I've been loving since it's come out. Genshin Impact.
It's what you talked about being good about Fortnite now, except it's an actual single player game. With actual thought and effort put into the quests, characters, and lore.
Fortnite is great and I'm proud to be a season 2 veteran.
Truth is...the engine was rigged from the start...
love that right side only audio
No build my mode rocks. So fun.
Fortnite is genuinely very good
That ship in the seuz canel be like : 9:31
The best part about the battle pass is that as long as you play enough to level up and save your precious vender dollars you never have to pay for it again
Then you get people playing just to get a free pass instead of because they enjoy it. Terrible and scummy design.
@@CarrotConsumer That’s certainly *a* way to look at it. I think it’s a mix of them being scummy, and getting people to push to that very first purchase. Once you’ve paid some money on the game, you’re more likely to spend more because you’re invested. They balance that, with both the reluctant playing to re-earn the battle pass, and that it can easily be seen as pro-consumer, as you *technically* only need to spend $10 to get quite a lot of content(or even $0 because you can just earn vbucks very slowly for free if you’re that dedicated 200-300 per season)
@@CarrotConsumer jesus christ thats so fucking cynical. games need to make money, the fortnite battlepass is actually fun and you really only need to pay once. out of all the designs, the fortnite battle pass is great. name a game where you get more bang for your buck
@@CarrotConsumer unless you, ya know, enjoy it. You don’t even have to get that far into it
I remembered watching your vids I searched for something but couldn't find anything and then one day this vid popped up in my recommended some how. Well subscribed.
Did I see a Joel Haver clip, my guy?
Hell yeah
It’s pretty much everyone’s guilty pleasure
Honestly, I've got nothing but respect for the Fortnite Developers. They listen, they have fun with it, and they work hard. Gotta respect it
I actually re-downloaded the game on my PS4 and Switch a few days ago since like Season 4. I'm enjoying the game again but the bots are annoying. There's no challenge since it's really obvious that I can kill braindead bots instead of actual players. Hopefully I will encounter less bots in the ranked mode soon.
idk if you know this now but arena/ranked mode has no bots
probably not a bot, just my 7 year old brother x)
Wait wow I never noticed that knowledge hub doesn’t do history videos anymore and is now a video game channel I’m looking at the video feed and I had no idea it changed.
I'm now tempted to check it out
I’ve recently gotten into Fort because of friends, and I’ve got to admit it’s entertaining
Still hate this game's guts
8:15 Smart to give tasks when there's nothing to do.
Feels good to get things of your chest don't it lmao
haven't you heard? there's no more fortnite!
Respect for admitting you got it wrong 2 years ago.
Oh no. He's gone (even more) insane
Channel name: KnowledgeHub
Content: I dunno just badmouthing video game companies and talking about games I like while imitating dunkey's voice
I originally only got fornite because I heard somebody talking about it, I thought it was a paid game so I said it seemed interesting and I might check it out later, then he said it was free. I loved how they kept on adding more and more content, and how that one basically useless area in the middle of the map with two warehouses got hit with a meteor and turned into a hotspot for everybody to rush to like tilted towers, or how there were small spots like one marking me and my friends saw that we were trying to figure out what it meant but it turned out just to be something from half life 2.
Season 2 Chapter 2 was best fortnite. S6 rn is up there tho. The crossplatform feature is pretty much the only reason I play cos me and my xbox buddies can do a couple matches on weekends. But it really is a decent game and I love the bows in this update and I love any form of alterations of weapons you can make (S2 and S6 both had this feature) and I love doing wacky shit like shockwave grenading my way out of danger or driving a boat on land as a mini tank. TLDR; Minecraft good, Fortnite also good
Fortnite wasn't a cashgrab even when it released, the game was literally in early acess with an entire adventure mode which was under paid early acess, using the battle royale mode as basically a demo

Got into Fortnite very recently, and honestly, it's like playing Mario 64, it's relaxing. Also, played COD Warzone, and that gameplay feels rigid and too realistic.
Bruh, fortnites relaxing for you guys?!
Nice to see they still treat their developers like sweatshop workers.
That explains why the ps4 pro fan was going off like a jet engine
I would like it to be known that I will say to myself at least weekly “Minecraft good. Fortnite bad. Lol” because of that video you made 2 years ago that I haven’t forgotten about
So Fortnite is practically Unreal Tournament 5.
the chungus stans aren't gonna like this one
Good stuff. Much respect for reversing your position
Adventure awaits! HUAZZZZAAH!
I wish we could play certain patches of Leagoe of Legends like you can with Minecraft
I tried to get into Fortnite a couple years ago to play with my teenage relatives. It was kind of fun at first, but as mentioned, battle royale games are just _really_ boring. It eventually got to the point that I'd just log in for a couple hours once a week to do the weekly challenges and that's it. At that point, the other players were just a nuisance rather than why I was playing, and it just felt like, "What's the point of this?" Haven't touched the game in quite awhile and really have no interest in going back.
My lack of interest aside, my main gripe with Fortnite is that it's designed to be addictive (which I could feel when playing even though I didn't really like the game). Sure, tons of games are like that, but it feels damaging to me when it's a game whose userbase is almost entirely children. They don't have the life experience to recognize when it's time to take a break because a game is sucking them in too much.
However, I will admit that using Fortnite as a beta testing ground for Unreal Engine is genius.

(Shows senior citizen)
My options still stands. It is the childs cod game. For children whos parents wont buy something more violent
Every mention of Kotick had me confused, I dont know if I should laugh at what is probably one of the worst PR disasters we've seen a while coming from the world wide PR disaster champion Blizzard, or feel sad at how Blizzard seems to somehow hit a new all time low every 2 months.
I like to play a few matches casually every now and then.
Good for you
Keep enjoying my man, truly a great game, but infinitely better with friends
Hey man, the links to the second channel's video are fine, but the link in the description directly to your second channel is broken FYI
Edit: And the spotify link? Seems like they just end in ... and that might have borked them.
There’s literally no game as stimulating as fortnite. I understand why people can’t get over it’s high skill ceiling though. It can definitely be a not noob friendly game
That would be a skill floor. It's funny, pretty much every competitive game has a massive floor for entry. Smash had SO many unwritten rules you need to learn to be any good at it, I had always considered myself a decent smash player before I got to college, I did decent whenever I played but I never went to tournaments or anything.
I got DESTROYED when I went to the smash club in college. It's similar for league too, heck it's even similar for Yugioh. To keep enough dedicated people around you need a very high skill ceiling. Which makes the effective bar of entry, the skill floor, higher as people get better at the game.
it used to be noob-friendly. now everyone is good and will build the tower of babel the second you fire at them.
@@stuckonaslide That’s bound to happen, people play game, people get good at said game. The SBMM and the ability to get famous and make money off it is what accelerated this wave of pro-like players.
You either die a hero or live long enough to become a villain
Well Fortnite is neither of those
I feel a little bad for doubting fortnite, not because I've come to be really good at the game or anything, I just appreciate how much the devs care
I’m still an avid player of the game, and I appreciate the devs putting time and care into the game, but there are a few mechanics they can set straight between the public and ranked modes, other than that I think the games amazing
Unreal engine 5 will be the Fortnite killer
