Simple answer: it’s a “toybox” game. It lets you grab your action figures out of the box and make them fight or work together. In a time when so many games try and be super serious it’s nice to have a game that’s wild and fun like Fortnite
@andraw4002 maybe but realism was never their goal, these goofy collabs just prove that. i think it also is great we have something that looks/feels like no other games out there
Epic doesn't only "pick a collab" as Riot informed in twitter it depends of both sides and that's why Arcane skins didn't returned for the second season.
It wouldn't even matter IF they actually made both their originals and their collabs actually have story purpose. I couldn't care less about 90% of the original skins because they have zero backstory. They only seem to focus on Jonesy, Peely, Sloan (barely), Midas (barely) and now Hope... And the only collabs that do seem to be Marvel so far due to the two Marvel seasons Hell, this season alone they haven't even hinted at Godzilla or Kong yet story wise despite them coming soon as bosses
@@nok4799 they rushed out skins they should have taken there time instead they milked the game for cash as quick as possible, it dosent come from the same place as other games, its only intention is to generate money.
5:42 is exactly what happened to me when they did the first dragon ball skins because they made a creative world with dragon ball super, ive since become a huge fan of it, sat through all 233 episodes of super and have near every fn dragon ball skin, it worked LOL
Epic Games is just over reliant on collabs. Even if they do tone down on collabs players will get upset about not enough collabs being in the seasons. Nowadays collaborations have just became a part of the Fortnite Formula to where there's no surprise factor, & is now an expectation. Collaborations used to be the surprising cherry on top on a great season making it even more special. Now it's just expected in every season now & is just part of the normalcy. That's not what made Fortnite (especially back in 2018) because the game itself became popular on its own, & can stand on its own legs. Collaborations were sprinkled across seasons to a pretty good amount, but now is just overly seasoned to an extreme degree. Honestly I don't think they can go back to toning crossovers down & will most likely crank it up even more. But after all those are just my thoughts on the matter.🤔
Not every company wants to work with fortnite. Also fortnite wont work with every company. It takes both companies wanting to work together at the same time to get a colab to work.
2:10 "Didn't have much faith in collaboration" people, please collaborations as the word implies means 2 parts. Epic cannot choose which collabs to sell or not, they have to make a deal and agree both sides. Marvel was part of Disney and Disney is pretty picky in using their intellectual properties, how can someone said that "Epic didn't have faith in collabs"? They tried to do their own versions of Wick, Wonderman, Ironman, Thor... They were totally involved into it, they just needed to convince Disney it was a WIN WIN deal.
Sure money could be the main reason but like, they need money, everyone needs it, the employees over at epic need it, they got families to feed, you have families to feed, it doesn’t matter if they keep adding more collabs, it’s a game get over it, they’re not forcing you to buy any skins, the game is literally free to play, it’s your choice to buy what you like
One thing I noticed besides Disney Marvel being their first collab: Every anime collab Fortnite has ever picked is available to watch on Disney Plus This excludes rather otherwise obvious choices like JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Death Note, Saint Seiya, Fist of the North Star and Bleach. This is notable since Disney now owns a percentage of Epic Games
I honestly don't care what people think of Fortnite collabs, I mostly just buy a skin if I like how it looks and how worth it it is, doesn't even matter if it's from a franchise I like or a character I like, so I treat original and collab skins equally
i litterally got super into fortnite as one of my favourite games street fighter was in fortnite im talking about when chun li and ryu released in cha 2 sea 5

Actually, peter was meant to be added in chapter 2, season 6 primal due to leaked concept art and he was going to be fat they were just gonna give him skinny legs same with the giant chicken
It was one thing when it was like one or 2 collabs like the origional thanos. But no the game lost its originality, style, association ( like sure burger for example) culture, and appeal. - and the storyline well, may aswell could have never happened dl
Let me fix the title for you free of charge “WHY ISNT EVERYTHING IN FORTNITE” I love the fact that we can have a squad that has Peter griffin, goku, terminator, and snoop dogg😂 we still need more characters like imagine they drop sonic, fnaf, dexter(the bay harbor butcher), and SpongeBob lol fingers crossed we get more characters until they have no one else to add.
You have been waiting for breaking bad to come in Fortnite,bro I have been waiting ages for SpongeBob SquarePants,sandy cheeks and Mr. Krabs to come in Fortnite and since lightning McQueen is coming SpongeBob can

More like it's just a cashgrab. The game wasn't always like this.

*insert Mr. Krabs showering in money gif here*
At this point mr Krabs should be in the game

No thanks

People hate on Fortnite collabs unless it's something they like coming in.
Fortnite needs to tone down the collabs and focus more on the original, and have a balance between original stuff and collabs
The problem is they have exhausted a lot of their cool/simple original skin ideas years ago , and most of them are exclusive
It wouldn't even matter IF they actually made both their originals and their collabs actually have story purpose.

I'm gonna miss when Smash Bros Ultimate was the biggest official collab ever made, lol
Is there actually more collab skins than original ones? That’s insane.
At least 20% of all Outfits are collabs, and with recently hitting just over 2,000 outfits in the game 20% isn't really a lot in comparison.
3:45 they also had hazbin hotel but i dont think its considered indie since its an official show on amazon
I too, remember the infamous hazbin hotel fortnite collab, it was peak gaming experience (?)
If u mean that emote, yea it was indie cuz afaik they used a fanmade song for it
@Edvard6_ Yeah the emote
Short answer: Money and attention

All this and Fortnite has yet to have one decent item shop
What about what, how and why the collabs are here
In _lore_ perspective

its basically gmod without the mods being free
Exactly 😮💨 I like to compare it to VRChat as well

True, because collab is like a business. Both parties have to agree with each other if they want to make a deal

It's no wonder Fortnite has so many collabs! This is what makes an ambitious crossover :D

Everything do be in PhortKnife

Not funny
it due bee dough
We're in the age of crossovers. Almost every live service game has crossover when 6 years ago we had barely any

At this point I'm expecting an Amouranth icon skin with an eggplant pixeaxe. 💀
I am going to cry if they don't add devil May cry
Oh my god same

Guggimon and Janky... you explained it
Kelsier was only added because of Donald Mustard's Personal request...
Ever since Skibidi toilet came out
Great video brother!
We need a supernatural collab
3:51 Guggimon, and the unofficial hazbin hotel emote
Let go deeper……What if this is the beginning of ready player one. One game for everything 😮
Actually, peter was meant to be added in chapter 2, season 6 primal due to leaked concept art and he was going to be fat they were just gonna give him skinny legs same with the giant chicken
Money + people ask for it + it's funny
The Zero point
6:05 Dave blunts?
It was one thing when it was like one or 2 collabs like the origional thanos. But no the game lost its originality, style, association ( like sure burger for example) culture, and appeal.
- and the storyline well, may aswell could have never happened dl
Fortnite needs to collab with you bro
I think Fortnite is creating metaverse. It may seem crazy to you but the cosmetics we have in the game today may even be worth bitcoin one day.
Ok bro why'd it take you so long to get back from the Trojan war then?
there is one collab that i think won't happen.
maybe on future, you can create your own skin.. like gta online/sims4 , epic please take my money
4:24 there actually is a fat peter skin, fn has sold normal peter before he was in the bp
"why is everything in fortnite" money.
Let me fix the title for you free of charge
“WHY ISNT EVERYTHING IN FORTNITE” I love the fact that we can have a squad that has Peter griffin, goku, terminator, and snoop dogg😂 we still need more characters like imagine they drop sonic, fnaf, dexter(the bay harbor butcher), and SpongeBob lol fingers crossed we get more characters until they have no one else to add.
I'm sick of seeing Celbraties in Fortnite also creators and RUclipsr as a creator myself It gets annoying
We need samus or any Nintendo collab
your question can be answered with one symbol - $
im here before this blows up
it's fun to play too
This video is actually made very well
we still need Daft Punk skins
Cobra Kai is still not in 😭😢
Edit: they are still not released is what I meant
Yes it is there defaults with dojo outfits😅
Cobra Kai has been in the game since, like, 2019. Have you been living under a rock?
Basically Ready player one but actually good lol
Yes money. They have a shit load( after paying its bills) but they are spreading it around unlike greedy people who HOARD it
I really want persona in Fortnite
We need squid game collab😱🤪🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑
Pass
You forgot to mention lethal company thats in the game that's a indie game.
Also how dare you don't know who gilded guy is.
I think collabs are a good thing but they need to tone a down just a bit.
the Only Expection is Nintendo.
so have you watched Naruto yet?
single word MONEY
i wish they did the morty strong version too not this mecha bs
Hey, I love orange man shit!
Why isn't Fortnite on Linux?
Because of the anticheat. It looks at your PC at kernel level and Linux doesn't want that
@eraimattei 😂 How come I can play Halo Infinte & SplitGate & Marvel Rivals with anticheat enabled on Linux?
Why not?
Even if they spoil the game of its art direction
Fortnite is everything that roblox wishes they could be
w yap sesh
Skibib toilet is trash and I don't care if I misspelled or not get off my tip
Epic has been putting straight HEAT in the shop lately. Deadpool and wolverine, master chief, snoop dogg, shaq, etc.
W vid!
