    Nostalgia edition is a sure sign it’s bleeding players and they obviously have no idea how to replicate that success with fresh gameplay under a fresh name. It would be of immense help for Epic if their store took off (it even has cart now), but they destroyed a lot more goodwill with exclusives than they got with freebies. I hate-claimed 300+ games for free, never install anything from there and still wouldn’t pay for an exclusive. Even if I didn’t hate EGS I would never buy a game unless it’s been out for a few years and is deeply discounted. Good luck, Epic, you’ll need it, you overextended yourself and it’s downhill from here.

      I believe it still exists, it’s called “Save the World” mode, but it’s extremely background for the game, to the point where the switch port doesn’t have it, or I would’ve tried the mode by now, it appeals to me, but the Battle Royale doesn’t, so I guess I just won’t play Fortnite.

      I remember seeing the original trailers for that and thought it looked really cool. Never got a chance to play they. Never been into this form of battle royale so I’ve never played Fortnite longer than a single match at a time for maybe 4 go’s max across the years. It’s never clicked.
