I agree completely I missed the days of grinding and I remember in season 8 where I where I would grind for hours to max the battle pass out and Maxx the skins out and I would spend so long doing it and I had so much fun doing it butt I am no season 1,2,3,4,5,6 and a little bit of 7 of but I really do agree and by the way I didn't max out season 8 I almost did and I do baby wanted the tier 95 wrap I think , those were the days and I remember playing with my father and his friends

I started late season 2. Season 3 was the absolute peak of Fortnite for me in terms of nostalgia. Season 7 was probably my favorite season overall.

I owned all passes from chapter 1. I miss when your levels, playtime and grind was truly rewarding. Back then if you didn’t want to buy levels in your pass, you had to wait for the next set of weekly challenges to unlock and continue levelling up your pass. I miss how challenging and thoughtful it was where you had to solve riddles. It made your rewards feel special. Now I see you can level up faster in creative, do XP glitch maps and buy the tiers at any point, in any order. It’s cool to have collabs but it gets boring when it’s done a million times. We’re so flooded with so many items in the shop, it takes away from the battle pass. Back then the pass was more worth it over just buying a skin in the shop. It’s not nostalgia blinding us. It really had its own personality that felt unique and made players feel special knowing they put some good effort into the game.

I agree. Unfortunately, I doubt epic will add it back. Guess we just gotta accept it and "move" on with our lives. I'll show myself out.

I want to know what epic games didn't ruin ARKHAM BABY!!!

Tricky man It's Amazing see you grow and You deserve every single sub you have but It's getting harder to get noticed in more and more subscribers in the streams and videos and you forget about the ogs and.. arkham..... and Please Don't take the wrong way I think You deserve to be so much bigger and you'er a great content Creator

I just want season 4, that’s my all time favorite season

In my opinion the reason old battlepasses were so good was because you could use a backbling, with a skin from a different season and a different pickaxe, and it would all match and look good, the emotes had some good music and moves, and in general it all had more of a personality and passes werent filled with unwanted stuff.

I agree because the new movement is stiff and it doesn’t look smooth when editing

I always just saw the battle pass as an economical way to get a bunch of skins for 10$. I dont think everybody looks at fortnite purely through a lens of exclusivity and rarity. Especially since selling accounts is against the terms of service and can result in bans. Maybe just enjoy a 10 pack of cool skins for 10$.

Funny now that renegade re released

Remember the original weekly quests?

Hi

Peak

You were completely correct. The "OG" Game mode didn't have the og movement and it basically died within days

The emotes are great the skins not so much

Holy sh*t I just realized them changing the shaders of fortnite was amazing because this is probably the most nostalgic feeling shader look possible I mean I look back on old minecraft or old cod where it looks the exact same and it doesn't feel quite nostalgic like fortnite does

This could come back if they add the lore and plot back but now seasons come outta nowhere with no explanation and in order for this to come back is they have to restart from scratch and if they dont its never gonna be 100 percent

The first 4 battle passes were just so iconic and just felt like FORTNITE. Not some dumb collab

Season shop was never stated to be exclusive by epic. I think that people are confusing the idea of a season shop with the idea of a battlepass, which is exclusive, as stated by epic

Bro sounds like he’s explaining himself to a teacher

Battle passes were unique because they were the only skins that weren’t the og deafaults like jonesy (except for the first 2 battle passes)

i mean there 2 upsides to this 1: people no longer will need to buy accounts 2: FOMO (fear of missing out) is a scummy buisness tactic that needs to stop

now it is really done because there are 500 icon skins and also renegade and arial arent og

They r only doing this bc of the law suit, it's cooking them rn

IMO, I think it would be cool if they re released the base styles of ogs (i.e: Omega with the default lights or any battle pass skin except the super styles). This is coming from someone who started playing in C1S4 and yes I did buy many of the OG battle passes but I never finished any of or just flat out never bought them because I was a dumb 9/10 year old. This has caused me to miss out on many of mine favorite skins like Catalyst from season X specifically, or Peely, or Drift. Basically, I don't mind old skins coming back, I just want the OGs to get a special style for the skin like epic is doing with Renegade Raider to make part of the skin still exclusive and rare.

Okay i don't know who came up with the idea that renegade and Arial were exclusive. Show me a blog post or something THAT SPECIFICALLY says that these items are exclusive. The blog post I read says and I quote "These items may or may not return at a later date, get them while you can" why is this so hard for people to get a grip on. Its in fine print on black on white yes it sucks that now its a bot skin but at the end of the day its just a skin. If the game ever shut down then everything one owned on there account, gone. Its pixels not actually real. Sorry to burst y'alls bubble its not that serious.

season shop isnt battle pass.

The OGs will get exclusive styles so the skins will still have the rarity

The season 1 shop was very different to the season 2 battle pass

No one bought the renegade raider because they “thought it would be og”. They didn’t even know the future of the game at that point. They bought it because the game just came out and they were enjoying it so they wanted to get a cool skin.

S0-S4 god tier can NEVER be replicated S5-today Eh 📉

Another thing people often forget is that every in season from 4 to X, you would be rewarded with a secret skin for grinding the challenges and studying the loading screens. It just seems like they have forgotten what made that feeling of discovery special in the later chapters.

tricky, epic did say that the season shop items will come back lol.

I want to agree, but no one knew or even knows when or if skins are returning so how would this impact sales any differently? Even for those saying "WhAT'S ThE POiNt oF BUyInG BaTTlE PasSEs NOw", there's still a huge incentive to purchase them. You are guaranteed 5+ skins, guaranteed vbucks back, emotes, etc & you get them a year and a half before anyone who doesn't grind out the pass. Even though they will return eventually, you don't know when so if you want the skins at that point in time you have to get that battlepass.

The reason the game was updated so much during chapter 1 and than started to slow down towards the end of chapter 1 and any point moving forward was because, Fortnite during most of chapter 1 was still a beta game. When a game is in its beta phase updating the game is actually super easy, however, once the alpha launched there was a lot more bs they had to go through just to release the basic updates

The season shop returned

I will say part of it is likely nostalgia, but man the last time i remember a good emote being in the bp was ch 2, s7 and a lot of them haven't been very interesting since cuz the shop is so focused on tiktok songs/dances

5:40 What's the point? The point is to pay 1000 vbucks and get all the BP skins, not pay 1200 for each later. Use your brain a little

It’s probably because they know majority of the real ogs don’t even play anymore and they just don’t care simple as that

Been playing since season 1 im OG I have every battle pass and no DIDNT buy it idc what you say if you didn’t play back then or if you didn’t earn it before the season ended then keep crying bc you’ll never get them you don’t deserve them sorry end of story

We all talk none sense till they close or shutdown this game and no more skins for all of us 😒

Hey man, I love the videos, but I have to correct one thing the season shop skins were never exclusive. It clearly said in the blog post they released at that time that those items could return at some point in the future. Just wanted to make that point so that you weren't speaking wrong about it, Merry Christmas

Re-releasing the rarest skins in the entire game for the sake of "OG" but cant even add old movement 🤦‍♂🤦‍♂

More than 350,000 people bought it “renegade raider”

I'm just glad I have played season 1 and 2. It was so peaceful. I don't think I will ever experience a game like that again.

We were having fun, we didn't know we were making memories 🤗
