Here\u2019s why. Battle royale games started as mods and went to become standalone games before going mainstream. PUBG and Fortnite exploded onto the scene in 2017 and 2018, followed by major publishers like EA and Activision cashing in on the trend with Apex Legends and Warzone in 2019 and 2020. Now, they\u2019ve all become staple titles in arguably the most popular genre to date. Many gamers have dabbled in them all at various times, including Shroud. He\u2019s streamed PUBG for 2624 hours, Apex Legends for 609 hours, Fortnite for 251 hours, and Warzone for 60 hours. Based on those stats, you\u2019d assume PUBG is his favorite battle royale by far. However, it turns out they aren\u2019t necessarily reflective of his preferences. He ranked these games from best to worst live on stream and explained why Apex Legends is his clear-cut favorite. \u201cIf I\u2019m talking about the most fun I have, it\u2019s different from what I think is the most competitive one, right?\u201d he said. \u201cTo me, Fortnite\u2019s number one and Apex Legends is number two \u2013 if we\u2019re talking competitive.\u201d \u201cBut if we\u2019re talking for me, my most personal fun, Apex Legends and PUBG are number one and two, and then three is Fortnite and then Warzone [is fourth].\u201d He prefers Fortnite over Warzone because it\u2019s \u201cunique.\u201d Based on his comments, Apex Legends is Shroud\u2019s favorite battle royale in terms of what he finds the most fun. However, that doesn\u2019t mean he thinks it\u2019s perfect. He described it as being \u201csuch a tilter\u201d because the servers are still \u201cso bad.\u201d And he\u2019s been critical of other aspects in the past, too, like suggesting it needs stronger abilities. Still, Respawn must have gotten a lot of things right if they\u2019ve managed to win Shroud\u2019s affection.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shroud explains why Apex Legends is his favorite battle royale game Respawn \/ Twitch: ShroudMichael \u2018Shroud\u2019 Grzesiek went through a list of all the best battle royale titles, including Apex Legends, Fortnite, PUBG, and Warzone, and conceded Respawn\u2019s is his favorite.
