It\u2019s been four years since Respawn Entertainment shadow-dropped Apex Legends, its Titanfall-inspired free-to-play battle royale. Nineteen seasons of content have launched since the game arrived, introducing new playable characters, maps, weapons, and modes. The latest season saw a massive crossover between Post Malone and Apex, and fans loved the new LTM it introduced. The future surely holds more promise, such as the unexpected Final Fantasy VII Rebirth on the horizon. However, after the culmination of the Post Malone event, fans are livid with the state of the game. Apex Legends players rip the state of the game Soon after the conclusion of the Post Malone event, Respawn introduced the Uprising Collection event with a new suite of collectibles and a new LTM. Fans have since labeled the LTM as the \u201cworst ever\u201d for poor balancing issues. Fan ire has filled the game\u2019s Reddit threads with numerous posts targeting issues like matchmaking, audio, skin pricing, and ranked play. Reddit user FloorAgile3458 perfectly summed up the experience in a scathing post where they started with a comparison to Warzone, another title that\u2019s had its fair share of issues. \u201cI don\u2019t think the game has ever been in such a mismanaged state before (mismanaged doesn\u2019t mean poor, it has definitely been substantially worse),\u201d they stated. \u201cRespawn can\u2019t just do the exact same BS they\u2019ve been doing the past 4 years and hope to get the same response, which wasn\u2019t even that good in the first place.\u201d Recently, Apex Legends\u2019 player count has taken a noticeable hit, and the comments reiterated this sentiment. One user replied, \u201cFirst time seeing such a steep drop off in player numbers,\u201d to which others replied the arrival of The Finals must\u2019ve had an impact. Others reflected on matchmaking, which has been a topic of ire in games across the industry, most notably Modern Warfare 3. \u201cI agree that matchmaking is an utter joke. I\u2019ve decided to just move on after 3 years,\u201d a Reddit user commented. Many of these issues have been consistent complaints for quite some time, and time will tell if Respawn will address any of them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apex Legends players claim it deserves the hate as they compare it to Warzone Respawn EntertainmentApex Legends players are fed up with the current state of the game and claim it deserves all the hate the battle royale is receiving.
