Apex Legends is approaching its four-year anniversary, and millions of players still take up in-game arms every day. Plenty of users are bonafide Apex veterans, having mastered the game in many respects in the last three-plus years. But newcomers regularly enter the fray as well, trying their hand at all the popular battle royale has to offer. Unfortunately, the experience isn\u2019t always kind to those who\u2019ve yet to reach higher levels. Fans debate whether Apex Legends is still fun for casual players In a post that now boasts 3,000 upvotes, Reddit user Cseresznyebog put forth the argument that Apex Legends is \u201cdead for casuals.\u201d According to the Redditor, matches too often feature high-level players who \u201cjust want to stomp on lower-skilled players because they are not good enough.\u201d Cseresznyebog adds that improved matchmaking would work wonders, as their enjoyment of Apex would increase tenfold against similarly skilled opponents. Responses to the thread suggest many other Apex Legends fans agree with this talking point. Users such claim they regularly wind up in pubs and ranked matches with people who aren\u2019t in their skill bracket. \u201cYep, I solved that problem by uninstalling Apex and moving on with my life,\u201d said another Apex player in response. Another redditor added their voice to the chorus, saying battle royale is \u201cterrible for the average 1kd player.\u201d Several others lamented that Apex Legends doesn\u2019t really offer casual players a chance to improve. Typically, pubs should offer somewhat of a laidback experience, while ranked play is for learning. As one player opined, however, Apex only features \u201cranked and ranked lite.\u201d Of course, cheating remains an ongoing issue as well, but it seems as though many of Apex Legends\u2019 lingering troubles would be solved with a better matchmaking system.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apex Legends fans spark debate by claiming it\u2019s \u201cdead\u201d for casual players Electronic ArtsApex Legends players have sparked a debate in the community, discussing whether or not Respawn\u2019s battle royale is still fun for casual players.
