  • Fortnite Creative is full of strange maps, but some of the weirdest ones come courtesy of outside brands trying to turn your chill gaming time into a prolonged commercial break. So today, we’re taking a look at some of the weirdest branded maps in Fortnite Creative.

    The irony in all these companies trying to sell their products on the Fortnite metaverse but literally this is the first time I'm hearing of any of these

    • @SeeDaveRun
      @SeeDaveRun  4 месяца назад +11

      Well, they likely paid the map developers FAR less than they would've paid a production company to make a television commercial. So to them, I'm sure even a couple hundred squishy little kid brains soaking in their marketing on Fortnite is enough to justify it.

    I'm glad someone made a video on these because I find these maps to be such bizarre oddities and it feels like barely anyone even knows about them. Which is surprising considering they're officially licensed, albeit with no direct involvement from Epic as far as I know. They kind of remind me of that weird mini-trend from a few years back where brands would make islands and downloadable clothing designs in Animal Crossing New Horizons.

    Hey! I used to be with Zen Creative, the team behind the Mio map. While I wasn't involved in that project (they made it before I joined the team), we sometimes joked about how broken it became. Fortnite maps often break due to game updates and maintaining them is a lot of work. Teams will usually only fix maps if brands pay for their upkeep. The brands usually don't. The maps just get left to rot and break. I noticed you played a lot of maps that are a year old or more, so it was clear why they weren't working for you~ It honestly wasn't surprising 😭 If you ever try brand maps out again, I'd say go for ones that were launched in the past month or two at the time of recording! Newer ones are typically updated with bugs fixes until the hype dies down. If you have any questions about what it's like to make a branded map I'd be happy to answer the best I can!

    • @SeeDaveRun
      @SeeDaveRun  3 месяца назад +3

      I checked the updates for each map I played, and the majority of the maps I played were actually updated within the year. But I totally understand your point, and I'm very aware of that as a general issue. It's something I discussed in my "The REAL Problem with Fortnite Creative" video. I definitely wasn't trying to make the glitches in these maps the focus though, more the general strangeness and forced nature of them.
      I would love to talk with you further though as developer if you're still doing it. I am planning on doing a future video that will feature several interviews with developers. If you're on Twitter, you can hit me up there if you're interested!

      Kids absorb information like a sponge, if you advertise to them they’ll remember it subconsciously for the rest of their life, making them more likely to remember the brand that was being advertised. Think of it as an investment.

    As someone that plays a lot in the JP servers, looking at official maps created for last year's Super Sentai (King OhGer) was really cool. They've created the maps to look just like the setting for the show, the main palace and even a part of the city that appears in the show, it was basically an ad for Bandai toys of that season but man it was cool to see it in Fortnite, too bad it was temporary and you cannot access them anymore. Oh well...

      To be honest, the Whataburger I had in Austin wasn't as good as the ones I would go to in Arizona. So maybe the home state of Whataburger has lost its touch for it. And also damn you for bringing up Cane's, we also don't have those here 😭. I was grossly unaware of how many restaurants I would be losing moving to WA.
