Fortnite has evolved over the years to showcase various styles for each chapter and season. The most recent season, titled Myths and Mortals, takes on a mythology theme. However, not all styles fit Fortnite\u2019s original and beloved cartoon-like appearance. What was once filled with little suburbs and restaurants has since been turned into full towns with gigantic colosseums. And this isn\u2019t the stylistic choice that many fans wanted to see. Now, players on Reddit are commenting that they would like to see a return of styles mainly used back in the OG days of Fortnite. \u201cI\u2019m SO SICK of the Mediterranean architecture. EPIC, PLEASE, GIVE US THE CLASSIC CARTOONY SUBURBS BACK!!! We get it, you\u2019re going through a hyper-realistic boring phase, but please. Give us back what made Fortnite FORTNITE,\u201d said the original poster in the Reddit thread. Another user suggested, \u201cOG should come back as an alternate permanent game mode.\u201d But not everyone agreed with this sentiment, with some pointing out that change is inevitable and Fortnite would not be the same without differing variations. \u201cI prefer the map having wildly different areas. Not suburbs over and over again,\u201d argued one commenter. With Fortnite being created on a new engine and another revamp set for 2025, it\u2019s unlikely that the original style will return anytime soon. However, this doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s impossible, considering Epic Games brought back \u201cOG\u201d Fortnite before the end of 2023.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Players want Fortnite to ditch \u201cboring\u201d hyper-realism and return to its roots Epic GamesFortnite has deviated from its once \u201ccartoony\u201d map style and players think it\u2019s time for the game to go back to its roots.
