Linux players cheat, don't you know that? /s
I’m cheating rn
Yep. The game is great, but they just ditched the Linux community with little sorry or proper explanation.
Had a hard decision to part ways with the game I dedicated a lot of hours to.
Fortnite is pretty fun. Wish it ran on linux. I hate Sydney Sweeneys dad.
I might let my kids play if it ran on Linux, but given that it's so predatory, there's no way I'm going out of my way to let them play.
You could teach them how to save up money to buy their fav things. I remember I bought the battlepass just by playing and didn't have to spend real money. You can buy next battlepass with the bp vbucks.
I'm no longer a kid but I really liked the casual aspect of it unlike games like cs, rl, etc.
It used to be nice, but then they created 4 different kind of passes, and you have to buy them everytime, that is, you don't earn in-game currency from them.
You earn vbucks from the battle royale pass and it gives 500 more vbucks back than it costs.
The other passes have a free tier but if you don’t race cars, play the rhythm games, or do the Lego survival mode then you don’t need the others.
We absolutely do! I gave one kid the Smash Brothers DLC with Steve for a birthday gift, and the other one asked if there was another and ended up buying the other DLC with their own money. One kid bought a bunch of Lego sets one year.
They get money from chores, extra jobs, and occasionally selling stuff (lemonade, hot coco, etc).
It's working pretty well so far.
This season/chapter the battle pass gives 1500 vbucks so you can get the next pass plus an emote every season
It felt good to get in, it felt good to get out.
Which is to say: being the prettiest fish in a drying pond feels great until you're dead.
I wonder what'll come next.
I kind of hope Deadlock will usher in an age of FPS/TPS moba-style arena shooters. But I also kinda don't.
