C3 was too short to leave an inpact on me, i think chapter 2 had way more highs

[@remrants]

Chapter Three Season One is also my favorite of all time. When you played that Island theme, I got tears of nostalgia. Little old me and my friends playing Fortnite when they were over, and us all being bots. I wish I could go back.

[@mrnoodles7767]

My bro ur so 100% true chapter 3 was so underrated and actually u convinced me

[@_tmw_]

finally i found a soulmate, I agree on every single point you made here. I absolutley adore chapter 3, as a casual player, and I think it's really underrated. It's kinda weird, but I had this "og" feeling while playing the first season, of this chapter, because most of the things then was mix of something we already knew. Chapter 2 was a huge shift in core gameplay, and it worked preety well. With all that in mind i think epic wanted to bring these two really cool factors of both chapters 1 and 2 into one, and they nailed it. But then unreal 5 kicked in, and chapter 4 rolled out, which was awful tbh.

[@thebluestorm1231]

Agreed

[@banned2911]

NO BUT THE OG FEELING?! Like i feel that so much and it definitely made this a season i got nostalgic for like really fast, i have so many good memories of ch3s1

Been saying this since always, Chapter 3 was GOATED

[@lenen9456]

Chapter 3 goated as hell

[@Thomas.R.Howell]

This was the first time I came back to Fortnite since it released. I came back during Chapter 3 season 1 winter fest. My fiancé and I and our 2 good friends jumped on it all together. Truly one of the best times we’ve ever had with gaming. Then Zero build happened and it just took off from there! Best map. Best loot. Best chapter by far. 4 and 5 have been pretty mid…

[@LilSmurfYT]

Did you say fiancé? People over the age of 13 watch my vids!?!

[@Comicedits39]

Chapter 3 was Mid, It started off Strong With season 1 and 2, Season 3 Was boring, season 4 was not that good and it had one of the worst events in Fortnite, but the chapter ended too early to really have An effect on me, Chapter 4 is underrated, every season except season 3 was amazing, and chapter 5 just started but I’m already loving it a lot more than chapter 3

[@PACSAX]

I joined Fortnite at the very last month of chapter 2s existence, but I still claim chapter 3’s island as the place I was born on Fortnite. As a gigantic ass Spider-Man fan, I was extremely excited asf when I seen that this game added not only Spider-Man himself, but he comes with the symbiote suit, the future foundation suit, ANNNNND THEY ADDED THE ONE FROM NO WAY HOME IN THE ITEM SHOP???!!?!! AND THE WEB SHOOTER MYTHIC!!!?!?! AND THERE WAS A DAILY BUGLE POI??!!??!!! Yea chapter 3 is why I still play Fortnite up until now.

[@thebluestorm1231]

Same

[@UltraGreenNo.57]

You may be born in chapter 3. But chapter 2 is truly where I grew, one of the best gaming experience to date.

[@xhontafaruci3445]

You know chapter 2 season 2 was my favourite season and it wasn't because of a collab

[@PACSAX]

@@xhontafaruci3445 that’s great! what was good about it though? I wasn’t playing back then.

[@xhontafaruci3445]

@PACSAX First time we had bosses, chopas, vaults and gliders you surfed on instead of hanging from them, Shakedowns, great battle pass, spy games, 2 live events as much as chapter 3 and also at the end of the season we had the flooded zone

[@Beans34_W]

I don’t believe chapter 3 was the best chapter. But hell it was so fuckin good. Literally the only chapter where I maxed out every battle pass and I loved every season. It’s so freakin underrated and much better than chapter 4 for gods sake. I don’t think the storyline peaked during this chapter though. Chapter 2 imo had a better story

[@SSCPRedits]

My rankings of chapters go 1. Chapter 2 reason (every season wasn’t bad) 2. Chapter 3 reason ( would’ve been 1 if it wasn’t for fracture and it only having 4 seasons) 3. Chapter 5 reason ( it’s only been 1 season and I already love it but still it’s only been one season) 4. Chapter 4 reason ( most boring chapter and least consistent in fun seasons but still not bad) (Can’t rank chapter 1 I only played on season X)

[@HE4DW0LF]

00:59 literally the same case for me 😂 lol

[@mrnoodles7767]

Bro we are the same 😂 my favorite season is chapter 3 s1 , and I thought that chapter 2 finale event was the best ever , I adore season 2 ch3 so much one of my favorite seasons ever and the collusion event was amazing, and I thought that I am the only one who likes the vibin season so much and I am a big Star Wars fan loved the battle pass, and I thought that loved s4 ch4 battle pass 😂 and then I found u , ur the most true person ever 🔥💯

[@mrnoodles7767]

@@Justkong-ps5 yeah

[@banned2911]

I loved ch3 s1-2 were just such a vibe and they already feel so nostalgic and i loved the map! S3 got a lil boring like the middle but thats also just burnout from my side and cuz it did got a little stale like lots of season S4, fracture aside (like fr people genuinely judge the entire season based on the event), was so hella fun too but kinda lacked the good vibe of s1-2 Also the introduction event (the end) was just SO SO SO good and like you said it was basically the best event especially with the last ending visual like man the island falling was so fucking awesome and crazy

[@alexanderfarley8819]

Chapter 3 was my favorite chapter not because it was better than the other seasons but because that was the chapter that my friends started playing and I was able to make the most and best memory’s of the game

Chapter 3 was my favorite chapter ngl

[@InfiniteDarkness7756]

Ah yes, the Med-Piss. Truly an item of all time. 🤣

[@Iethum]

I heavily respect your opinion but i want to also share mine. Enjoying something doesn’t make it good. Chapter 3 had one good season: Flipped, resistance was decent but not necessarily good. Vibin was very mediocre and although I enjoyed Paradise it doesn’t make it a good season, especially with how messy everything was, let alone Fracture. Chapter 1, in my opinion, is the best chapter. Say it’s nostalgia all you want and that “chapter 2 was way better because of the spies season” but the same can easily be said for that. Chapter 1 was more consistent and had better life of quality changes within the loot pool and the map. Battlepasses didn’t rely on collabs. Like I said I respect anyone else’s opinions and don’t get mad at me for sharing mine. Thanks

[@KirbyLoverFN]

The striker burst better imo

[@RadioactiveArachnid62]

I love this chapter because it’s the one I started on and it was just so much fun to play at the time with so many characters like Spidey, Gwen, Indiana Jones, Darth Vader. I only started playing because I heard spider-man was in the battle pass and I always wanted to try Fortnite but never got around to it so I finally started playing and really enjoyed it. The only thing I have to complain about is I don’t have spider-man anymore because I also lost my old account at the start of season 2 :/

[@HE4DW0LF]

Hot take, fortnite chapter 4 season 3 was hella 🐐ed and I'll 💀 on this hill!

[@fluffydragonw6767]

Chapter 3 season 3 is the best season in fortnite hands down and I will die on that hill. Having the most chill season after the war ark was perfect and the entire season was just made to be fun. The reality tree was beautiful and my favorite item, the grapling glove, was introduced as a more balanced but more fun version of the spider man mythic. If I could ever play one season again, it would be season 3 Chapter 3

[@UltraGreenNo.57]

Easily top 3 worst seasons in my books. Mostly the game felt dry and unfun at release.

[@fastmaker9091]

Didn’t play but the weapon balancing at the beginning was terrible from I heard. The Mk-Seven and stinger smg made it so that you didn’t really need a shotgun. It wasn’t until Ch. 3 Season 2-3 when the weapons started becoming more in the shotguns favor and Ch. 3 Season 4 balance was pretty good, unfortunately the map was kinda weird.

[@khalilanarchy]

the last chapter that felt like fortnite

[@jurassic190]

True. I prefer the ch3 graphics over ch5

[@kp3dogs123]

I completely agree with everything you said in this video and this is now my favorite Fortnite video of all time!!!!

[@constanterratic4252]

I loved the summer event of Chapter 3! The reality biome and seeds were so fun! Evie syndicate couture is my all-time favorite skin! ❤ The map in Chapter 3 was so varied and still the best so far. I love Chapter 5 but I still reminisce about Chapter 3. ☺️

[@Azerzxz]

I really only played chapter 3 s1-s2(season 3 I think aswell but I really can’t remember) but honestly chapter 3 from what I can remember and chapter 1 have to be my favorite chapters. Chapter 1 has a special place in my heart which is why it’s my #1 favorite chapter, but chapter 3 is definitely my close 2nd.

[@mariomaster973]

Hot Take The Lock on Pistol is the best Pistol in the game not because of the Lock on, but because of how fast you can fire shots

[@SillyKlaus]

Dude, I wish I played Chapter 3!! I only started playing C4 S2, but this chapter might have been my favorite if I played it! If you don't mind though, since I didn't play C3 I'm going to voice my controversial opinion on why Chapter 4 is my favorite chapter so far. Starting from S2 (because I didn't play S1), the map was amazing and the loot pool was great (looking back), at the time everything was so new so I didn't really have much of an idea of what I was doing. Whilst Chapter 4 Season 3 wasn't the greatest, I still enjoyed it since I built a bond with one of my strongest friendships IRL at the moment. Chapter 4 Season 4 is my favorite season yet, since everything was new, and I had an idea that quite alot of the lootpool was recycled, but since I didn't play the seasons that they were originally from, it was all new! Season OG doesn't really count as C4 imo, but it was ok 🤷

[@X3B11]

As much as i agree with you. Chapter 1 was (atleast for me) my favourite just because there were no sweats. Back in Ch1, Fortnite was made for casuals and then when Ch2 came out and turbo building was introduced and edit on release was introduced the rise of the sweats started. I had quit fortnite in late Ch1 and only when OG came back I started playing again but it doesn't feel like it used to at all. Other than the building I find Chapter 5 Season 2 to be my favourite since the end of Chapter 3.

[@budgetcheemsdog2670]

honestly this chapter was an experimental one. the weather stuff the trees falling sliding advanced movement. it really just was a spectacle for when it switched to i think unreal engine 5, good chapter but it was just really messy

[@Danny_V272]

You know Fortnite’s official KZbin has the entire End Event uploaded onto their channel right?

[@Manny349sart]

My favorite chapter is chapter 2 because it brought my main skin Rippley and the Marvel season being my favorite from the chapter. But my favorite season from Chapter 3 is season 1. It was really fun to use the Spider-Man mythic and the map being covered in snow

[@towerz_og8297]

I've been saying this is absolutely the best map we've had

[@LunaChann02]

I was only here for chapters 1, part of 2, all of 4 and all of 5 up until now Chapter 1 was way better than 2 or 4 to me, chapter 5 so far is quickly becoming my new favorite though, something that I thought wasn't possible after seeing fortnite become so streamlined. But in all honestly, from all I've heard, it sounds like both the events and the map of chapter 3 were really good, definitely better than chapter 4 and what I'd played of chapter 2, so I'm a little sad I didn't get to experience it. I hope we get more rounds of fortnite OG where we get to explore the chapter 2 and 3 maps again!

[@ilikegogoscrazybones3221]

This was the chapter I started to stop playing but some battle passes and limited time weapons seems really cool

[@dwellingart7]

Season 1 had so many good updates and had im not even gonna lie the best map fortnite has ever had. i know thats a hot take but in my opinion chapter 3 had the best variety of biomes with deserts. grass, snow, and jungles. the winterfest event was good, klombo was introduced, tilted was brought back, the map had so many easter eggs and secrets to explore, i cant explain enough how good this season was. unlike chapter 4 season 5 where they just brought back the old map and then left us hanging until the big bang event, they actually put effort into the map. you can say whatever you want but in my opinion chapter 3 season 1 was the best season and had the best map in fortnite history.

[@Eithyn1x]

In terms of gameplay, fortnite improves every chapter. Lore it declines exponentially after c3. Map wise it goes to ch 2 3 or 4 im not sure

[@MrDerpGuy.]

1.Chapter 3 reason every season was a hit but tbh vibin was the weakest season out of the chapter but it doesn’t mean it’s bad and flipped was just perfect its just so sad that it was cut short 2. Chapter 2 reason 2 goated seasons that were perfect but did have one of the worst seasons tho that makes me put this chapter at number two 3. Chapter 1 taking away all the nostalgia it was still a really good chapter but season 10 was just wayyyyyy to chaotic but it did have some good seasons tho but I did started playing Fortnite in chapter 1 season 4 and even then I found the game pretty boring but it doesn’t mean that I hate chapter 1 4. Chapter 5 reason dude weapon mods are the best just wish we had a weapon bench in every poi season 2 so far has been hype the rate this chapter is going I might put this at number 2 even number 1 if they play there cards right 5.Chapter 4 reason we just came out of the WORST EVENT EVER and I don’t even want to talk about wilds we got no mid season poi’s and augments are just straight up mid

[@SnaxxHaxTV]

I actually feel Chapter 3 is overrated to me it's the second worst Chapter Loot pool was very bad and only 1 or 2 good weapons each season Battle passes were the worst with only 1 good skin per season while the rest were trash The map felt so boring like it was supposed to make you feel slightly nostalgic while still being unique and new which it just didn't and not really any good POIs except the OG ones Story was too short and boring The tanks were really fun but didn't last long There were some good things like the movement but in the end I wouldn't have cared if they just kept the Chapter 2 movement Chapter 1 if by far the best since it just has so many good POIs and just was very balanced Chapter 2 has many solid POIs had some fun unique weapons, added bosses and bots, every season had it's own theme and it had some of the best seasons ever and story was just at it's peak Chapter 4 we can all agree is the worst Chapter 5 is like the mid chapter having many ups and downs it seems to become one of the best ones expecially with the new season So in my opinion Chapter 3 was bad I did have fun with it but not really for long because it lacked updates and just died 2 weeks after each season while there wasn't even hype for anything it just felt dry and boring
