Removing Rarity was Fortnite’s BIGGEST Mistake

[@Callingboot]

The worst part of removing rarities is that your pickaxe in game is stuck as an ugly grey background for every pickaxe

Legendary still exists you just wouldn’t see the background but that whole system of 800, 1,200, 1,500, 2,000 is still present. Some skins are also sold in a bundle with a pickaxe making them 2,000.

the biggest thing for me in the new locker is the way presets have been broken apart and scattered and after every game you need to go switch your skin preset, emote preset, wrap preset, car preset, lobby preset, and instrument preset if thats your thing then queue back up, when in chapter 4 it was ONE CLICK collecting skins was so fun for me because id unlock like say spiderman and be excited to look through my emotes like "oo that fits spiderman, thats something he would do!" and choose the wrap and everything and really express myself with my presets, but now that they're all spread out i dont get excited for that anymore, i no longer even change my emotes or save emote presets, now everything is just 1 giant 3 wide column of skins that i cant even look at them all to appreciate, the old system had them sprawling from one side of the screen to the other so i could really see all of my presets, and collecting these presets and allowing me to express myself is what made me buy skins i otherwise wouldnt if i had a cool combo in mind with them now i stick to the same 5 skins, never buy non collab skins and even when i do its a rarity because IM OUT OF PRESET SLOTS TO PUT THEM SO WHY BOTHER, and never change my wrap or emotes or anything because they made everything such a hassle it really sucks, i wish they'd revert it or atleast make "preset bundles" where you can bundle your presets into one mega preset that changes everything in one click like the old locker used to, but thats a good idea so they wont do it, it all just sucks man

One of my least favourite parts about the new locker isn’t even removing the rarities, I just hate the fact that the emotes, lobby items, etc are all in separate tabs with separate presets. I set up a lot of my skins with coexisting emotes and stuff to match the skin, but now whenever I wanna swap to a certain skin preset, I’ve gotta go and change the emote preset, lobby preset, car preset, it’s all very tedious and annoying and I hope that they implement something that lets you attach separate presets together so you don’t have to keep switching things around and flipping between tabs just to make sure you’ve put everything together properly.

Featured/Multiverse: could be ANY SKIN THAT IS A COLLAB (Jack sparrow/sara Conner) Animated: ALL ANIMATED SKINS- Naruto/even the fortnite skins that are animated.

[@meeks_RL]

I was talking with my friend about why the newer seasons weren’t as popular. I think it’s because Fortnite changed its bones. It’s an analogy that goes that every game has “bones” to it that make the games identity. For some games it’s the style of it, others it’s guns, but for for to me it was the aesthetic and the movement/sounds . The aesthetic being the skins, the way the characters are styled, the lobby, the shop. The sounds and movement are unique to Fortnite the lack of sprint, the sound of a pump, the chest. But overtime they got rid of these things that make Fortnite Fortnite. Don’t get me wrong though You can change anything OUTSIDE of the bones of a game but if you change the bones the game loses its identity. Fortnite not looking or feeling like Fortnite is what’s losing players imo. The map and guns come and go and building isn’t considered a bone to me because there were times that nobody built and the game still felt like fort. But tbh they shouldn’t have ever changed the games aesthetic and movement. I get change is good but too much change and you have a different thing (I forget the quote) you need to keep the bones of a game at the bare minimum. That’s why people are begging for og seasons they want what they remember Fortnite being. It’s the same for games like overwatch and apex. Change anything but the bones because losing the identity of a game is something that can be felt, and usually it makes a lot of people leave. I just want the game to keep its bones man😢

Also seeing the grey at the pickaxe area it just looks sad

[@X_Zero_Builds_X]

Agreed

[@Souls_25]

It looks depressing 😭

[@veasey3997]

Y’all remember when we could directly pick a saved load out after a game instead of going all the way back to the lobby or having it randomized

[@3lackSwordsman]

The Locker UI is terrible. The preset loadouts is too small it hides my skins. I wish i could see them from a distance so I can see how many I have.

[@carternll]

your videos are actually so good. Love the TV girl in the start.

[@berkowild]

remember collecting all rare skins

[@walmartbag-bw9kh]

Let's not forget about the legacy achievements, and how they just disappeared along with the superior ui

[@Bakedbean.vr1]

I cant wait until next chapter when they remove all rarities so you can't tell how good weapons are. You just have to know.

[@aaronzaffiro]

While we’re at it, I also hate the look of the new item shop, and how massive it is, and how LONG stuff stays. It doesn’t even feel worth it to check the shop every day

[@nobbyfirefly57]

6:19 agreed, compared to robux, vbucks is so expensive. The £17 I spent could’ve been spent on a whole indie game purchase, or some hardware, maybe a usb, or way more robux. Instead I spent it on the alien pack and I feel ripped off. I mean, I wanted it but it wasn’t worth the price.

[@Xwx_Snow_xwX]

This is one thing I really dislike about Fortnite rn is their UI is cluttered and overwhelming especially when trying to get back into the game

[@cythebunny]

I swear ever since they remove rarity from locker I can’t find anything in there since

[@kingdaveygt136]

could we sign a fucking petition to bring it back

[@parsacraft88]

I really miss Donald Mustard

[@fanumgoon]

mustard wasn’t any better lmao

[@parsacraft88]

@@fanumgoon he was tho

[@Qwertyexists]

The old locker designs from Chapters 1-4 felt colorful and alive without any corporate disease. Why does Epic want to destroy the game. Rarities are outdated BR systems my ass.

[@Eggooo]

I actually quit Fortnite over the ui and locker changes I have over 500 skins its a absolute pain finding my stuff it feels so slow and looks like a cheap mobile game I dont think im returning any time soon im just so sick of these horrible unnecessary changes I miss when the game had simple graphics and a good movement animation and im so sick of Fortnite not making stuff return because the stupid new lego mode

[@fanumgoon]

boo hoo no one cares buddy, also the long ass paragraph was so unnecessary

[@Eggooo]

@@fanumgoon sorry this is coming from an og so you chapter 4 kids won’t understand

[@CilantroSandro]

I hate how the emotes, wraps, and banner, I had saved for a certain preset is now separated

[@Site19Series]

I saw so many people say that "No! Epic wouldn't raise prices!" when this change was first done. Now we are getting skins that cost 1.5K V-bucks that don't even have a backbling or 2K V-buck "bundles". I haven't seen a new 800 or 1.2K V-buck skin in a good while.

[@Sly2BandOfThievesIsTheBestSly]

Alright now name the skins we get now that cost 1.5k without backblings. Also did you forget them making legendaries back in the day which were just terrible like flytrap or Leviathan with nothing. Also there has been new skins lol

[@Sly2BandOfThievesIsTheBestSly]

Also yes they are in fact bundles. 2k v-bucks for bundles/all cosmetics is better than a 2k v-buck flytrap or leviathan

[@borgorrb6957]

Also remember that some collab skins now have multiple versions that you need to buy even though they should just be edit styles

[@haveztt]

The last new skin I remember being 800 vbucks was blair

[@mrscribbles2693]

They keep bundling up skins now so for example, if you wanted to buy the new Iron Spider skin you’d have to also purchase a weapon wrap, a glider, an emote and a guitar skin. Not even mentioning they really tired to play off the Heroic Hope as a “three item bundle” because it counted the Lego style as an additional bonus

[@DJTHE0NE-p5t]

I just love goofy shooter games so much because randomly deciding to have a dance party in the middle of ww3

[@ImMeters]

The locker system didn’t need to be changed, expanded for a new type of cosmetics yes but full on change no.

[@tjc123tjcYT]

I remember a few weeks ago when u hit 1k and did I think a deathstroke glider giveaway. Mark my words this man is going places.

[@Tarsier-r9z]

Short answer: corporate greed

[@pangranacik7011]

The fortnite is the definition of making change in order to make change and maybe, just maybe, struck gold.

[@Siksama]

I really miss rarities, they were just a good way to categorize and find items, as it stands there is no good way to organize the locker anymore, the closest is sorting by season. Also, I remember subscribing because of the Taiga pfp, but I started to watch your videos and you actually have some pretty good commentary, it's legitimate criticism and not just "old fortnite was better" or "modern Fortnite is so great, people only like old Fortnite for nostalgia" You strike a nice middle ground on things that Fortnite has improved over the years, and the stuff they really didn't need to change at all.

[@Noeticc]

the worst shit is that when i try to find my emotes i have no idea now what emotes i even have because i remebered them by the rarity like the salute emote i even forgot i had that one bc i never even saw it in the locker

[@robertwhaley1776]

100% agree with you. I have almost 1,150 skins and it is a nitemare even trying to remember what skins I have. At least with the old system there was subcategories that helped keep track or narrow it down on which skin I was searching for. Fix it Epic.

[@republic1173]

It’s not hard to find skins bruh

[@aaronadethegamer]

​@@republic1173It really is. Let's not gaslight. It's much harder now.

[@Whiskers--5]

It’s really not difficult at all let’s not gaslight ourselves

[@Karl.Jayce-DE]

Yes dad

[@Gxmergeddon]

@@Whiskers--5 imagine u had 1k+ skins. Sometimes u want to use a skin but u forgot its name, but remember its rarity, u sortby rarity. now we cant even do that. Also on controller even if u remembered the name u couldnt search it up without taking 5 minutes of ur life

[@mfn1311]

The item shop right now has to be the dumbest thing ever. No way people actually buy skins now 😭

[@dinner7513]

This is all corporate greed, corporate greed has taken over this game and it has damaged it significantly. This whole removal of rarities is just the tip of the ice berg of what corporate greed has done to this game.

[@brandonstarstorm3289]

I find it funny how corporate greed is the reason why companies lose money. It hurts itself in it's confusion every time.

[@Olivius7]

Adding lego and removing rarity colors/changing the UI was biggest mistake fortnite ever made.

[@superbrandon7854]

If Donald mustard didn’t leave maybe Fortnite would’ve been better

[@zotc.]

literally

[@laisksjjsjs566]

Honestly, I understand the change and how it saved Fortnite. But they could have done it in a MUCH better way.
