Fortnite players convinced devs have abandoned the game\u2019s lore Epic GamesSome players couldn\u2019t help but point out that Fortnite\u2019s lore feels like it has been lacking since a certain chapter. For some players, a part of what makes Fortnite interesting is getting invested in the game\u2019s lore. Spanning from the OG days, the game featured iconic characters such as OG Midas and Paradigm, which now have become one of the highly requested skins to return as they\u2019re a part of the lore. Fast forward to the current chapter; the lore now revolves around Peely, who has been kidnapped by the Society. However, despite the current chapter having new characters joining the game and getting involved, some players couldn\u2019t help but feel like the game\u2019s lore is starting to feel repetitive. One user pointed out in a Reddit thread that since Chapter 4, the game\u2019s lore has been following a similar pattern. It starts with the villain being revealed and doing nothing wrong, and then either Jonesy or a \u201cniche NPC\u201d comes to defeat the villain with a \u201chidden dialogue.\u201d Then, the villain disappears into thin air along with the niche hero. Ultimately, there\u2019s a \u201cbig explosion\u201d and \u201cJonesy survives.\u201d Some players agreed with the OP in the comments, claiming they felt the same way, while others argued that the lore is unimportant. One person is certain that this is the case, explaining that \u201cThe \u2018lore\u2019 of the current season is: Peely is kidnapped offscreen. Peely is rescued offscreen. Text: \u2018We did it! We rescued Peely! Thanks!’\u201d Another user couldn\u2019t help but poke fun at OP\u2019s take by writing, \u201cPeely got kidnapped -> TMNT showed up and destroyed some banners -> Peely got rescued. Wdym? Perfect lore.\u201d Meanwhile, some players were convinced that it was due to Epic not \u201cfeeling like paying voice actors or writers.\u201d Aside from that, some argue that the game\u2019s lore is unnecessary. \u201cLmao \u2018lore\u2019. It\u2019s a BR. Just enjoy the gameplay, and you don\u2019t gotta worry about lore. It\u2019s totally OK to be a lore nerd in games and movies and stuff, but I really just don\u2019t think that\u2019s one of their (Epic) top priorities,\u201d they said. \u201cTo me, it never had one; I play the game because I like it,\u201d one chimed in. Some players are hopeful that given the next season is fast approaching, there will be \u201csome actual lore\u201d soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
