Should I buy PUBG or Fortnite?

[kaizokuoo]

I'm thinking PUBG, but one of my friends really wants to get Fortnite.

What do y'all think?

I think both suck...



You did ask what we think.

PUBG has trouble with the optimization by the looks of it, but overall seems to be a better Battle Royale experience. They also got a new map recently, offer 3rd person (WITH shoulder camera swap) and of course 1st person. So if you want a proper BR experience, which leans onto realism more than grab PUBG. They have the funds and the pull to make the game great down the road.


Fortnite is a goofy 3rd person only (means defense always has advantage) BR game with building elements. They jumped onto the BR train because the maingame of Fortnite looked fun, but in the core was a grind or pay mode and was met with dissaproval. So they made a BR game to get a good chunk out of the BR cake early on. More BR games will follow, Fortnite made it's mark after PUBG.
The thing which bothers me with it and why i don't wanna play it is, that you can't switch the crosshair position with the shoulder camera swap, like you should be able to in any selfrespecting TPS. So you are forced by the game to prefere right corners over left corner. Even PUBG has it which was 3rd person initially. Or Max Payne 3 had this, or APB Reloaded is a good example. This simple feature is on their roadmap like 5 months,. You might consider this not important, personally i consider this an essential feature for any TPS game.
