Discussing the potential of Fortnite \u2018dying\u2019, Daequan dismissed this idea due to the already massive player base, made up largely of young fans who simply play to have fun, and will not be put off by small gameplay changes. However, while he recognizes Epic Games\u2019 intention to appeal to the casual players rather than the \u2018tryhards\u2019, he thinks that recent updates haven\u2019t appealed to either, questioning if Epic Games have lost direction. \u201cThis game is so amazing at its core, but I feel like they don\u2019t know what the fuck direction they want to go,\u201d he says, \u201cI don\u2019t know what they\u2019re thinking, a lot of it just doesn\u2019t make any sense.\u201d He explains that while Fortnite is not \u201ctrash\u201d, as some very negative players suggest, but does admit that \u201cthe direction [Epic Games] is going, is trash.\u201d Later in his YouTube video, he continues his thought, explaining that while Epic are clearly trying to make the game more accessible for new or casual players, recent patches have not made anyone \u201chappy\u201d. \u201cThe problem is, the patches that they release, don\u2019t make anybody happy, it just makes the game AIDS, you know what I\u2019m saying? That\u2019s the problem. [\u2026] Like the Glider patch for example, it doesn\u2019t save the \u2018not so amazing\u2019 players from the amazing players. It just makes it take longer, it makes everybody wast [materials], it\u2019s not going to make anybody better or worse, it\u2019s just going to be annoying.\u201d In answering the question the title sets, Daequan explains that despite these complains, Fortnite will never \u2018die\u2019. \u201cThis game\u2019s never going to die, there\u2019s literally like 100 million players active. Do you see how many freakin\u2019 kids you see doing Fortnite dances? Do you think they\u2019re going to quit the game because gliders are in the game? No, they\u2019re not going to quit the game bro.\u201d However, he does think that numbers could \u201cdwindle\u201d, if the developers \u201ckeep going in this direction\u201d, but it won\u2019t die, only have less players.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TSM Daequan criticizes Fortnite\u2019s \u2018direction\u2019 with recent updates \u2013 \u201cThey don\u2019t make anybody happy\u201d TSM professional Fortnite player Daequan \u2018Daequan\u2019 Loco hasn\u2019t been impressed with recent patches and changes made to the battle royale mode, saying they appeal to no one.
