I find it funny how most modern Fortnite content creator say that Chapter 1 had no content. Yet, none of them ever bother to do research for each season
Season 6 is somewhat better than season 5 in a single way which is that the shotguns were actually good (one pump came back) and smgs were finally not ultra op again. Other than that yeah not a great season
@omgryannn yes yes there are shotguns are broken and not in a good way. There's no way that I hit someone point blank for 25 damage. That's my problem with Fortnite now, every gun is heavily nerfed.
1 pumping was fun back in the day, and I used to get annoyed by it being removed, but looking back, I'm happy with the standard legendary sniper/pump headshot being 198. It's still an enormous chunk of damage, but it gives the person who is shot some slight chance to respond
I remember the funny thing about this season is that 1 week the challenges gave more battlestars than the should and people would go from tier 34 to 100 in the battlepass with 2 of those weekly challenges complete and epic decided not to remove the rewards earned, it was the first time I was tier 100 but I didn't have money for the actual pass which has probably my favorite battlepass skin in Calamity
The fact that you have less than 1k subs is criminal. This is SO quality, seriously. I hope these videos get a bunch of traction soon. Happy to be your 450-somethingth sub. :3
This season is one of my favorite, i love halloween and the ambient really worked on me ! I really love those videos, hype for the next retrospective !!
@@sharkgam3z592Ig, but now if I go back, I would love to replay the whole chapter 4 and all the memories that Ive got, EVEN with Mega city and the Jungle 🙏☠️
Having ltm's as its mention here is wild. Like, what i understood is that there was always an ltm, no matter if it was new or not; i dont know if the sole fact of adding it is hard, but if it its not, i wish we still had it like that
I loved Season 6th… it was at the prime of my fortnite addiction, the Heavy AR is also my favorite gun of all time, the zombies were fun. Maybe my nostalgia is to extreme. But still. Fortnitemares as said, kicked ass
Just found your channel. WOW, this is exactly the kind of FN content I wanted, I’ve already seen the whole series and the quality is insane, huge props and respect! You have gained a new subscriber. Keep this going!
Nightshade is super underrated. Don't get me wrong, the skin is terrible in almost every way, but the thought behind the skin is great. The whole season was a play on the rivalry between classic horror monsters and humans. Nightshade is an actual plant, but it has fantasy roots as well most notably its adverse effects on vampires. Tomatoes are also a member of the nightshade family of plants. Thus, nightshade is a vampire hunting tomato-person.
This was the season I started playing in, and I might be biased because of it, but I enjoyed it a lot. I do agree the Glider Redeploy test was weird, you can imagine what happened when I loaded into Season 7 and jumped off Polar Peak.
i was much younger and had no clue what i was doing at the time, but i fucking loved s6. i usually dont like halloween themes in games for no real reason, but season 6 just hits the spot.
Nightshades are plants that look like tomatoes but are poisonous, they're the reason why Europeans didnt eat tomatoes for a super long time which might be why that skin looks like a a distorted version of tomato head
i look back on season 6 fondly because i was like 11 and I had just started playing in season 5 so I was having a ton of fun playing the game. also the LTMs, they were all so fire.
Z-Fire: this would be a bad item… Me: HOLY YOU SEE WHAT I DID TO THAT DUDE WITH *said item* THIS IS FIRE I always made use of whatever updates they dropped, and still do to this day. Gotta enjoy what they provide or you end up miserable and probably leaving the game then looking back on nostalgia.
Im a bit bias towards this season because it was my first and last played season of Chapter 1, I even bought the battlepass and only got to level 60 and quit and didn’t pick the game up again until Quarantine 2020. Whenever I think of a fall time season this one always comes to mind, and why I associate Halloween and Fortnite together so much.
I know this is unrelated but, I just finished the pets section of the video and man, I wish I got Zyg. I started playing in chapter 2 season 7 and started a week before Operation Skyfire. I was literally one page away from unlocking him. I didn't spend any of my battle stars on skins in that pass because all I wanted was Zyg, but because of that the only skins I got from the pass were Superman and Kymera, and I didn't even get any cool styles for Kymera. I seriously hope Epic brings back battle passes because when I bought that pass I thought I would have an unlimited amount of time to finish it. I seriously hate exclusivity. (also, one of my friends got it and keeps dangling it in front of me).
I remember this season very fondly, since it was when I got my first battle pass and actually started playing the game more. I honestly didn't care about a lot of these issues since I was just having fun, but looking back some stuff was pretty bad lol.
I disagree with your assessment of the quad launcher. i remember it being very annoying to go against, probably because of the structure damage spam making it shred through builds
Ch1 Season 6 was my favorite one of all time. I loved all the changes, items, and skins with the map changes. I understand everyone has their own thoughts and that's what makes it special because everyone is entitled to anything they like :)
It's actual very easily possible for calamity's jiggle physics to have just been an animation error. There were a lot of fortnite skins even back then that have to work with a lot of emotes and since it was only noticeable on one singular emote it was likely just an animation error with the emote and the skin.
Man watching this video makes me kinda sad, they used to be so creative. The cube stuff spanned over 2 seasons and changed every week, nowadays they make one big season update about actual Fortnite and then shove 50 collabs down ur throat and people will eat it up. Also I cannot stand for this trap slander, I love traps, bring back traps. And bouncers were amazing
3:45 they need to start bringing back the og music packs into the shop but they aren’t because they’re so focused on jam tracks because I want the marathon music pack to come back because I didn’t have the v bucks for the season 6 battle pass to get the running man emote
The only correction I would make is that the heavy AR and the mountain turret were overpowered. Some people were dropping a legendary scar over a blue heavy AR. Heavy AR just has better accuracy than the scar, and good headshot damage. The turret is overpowered… at least that’s what the community said at that time. A lot of people were complaining about the turret being overpowered, so Epic decided to nerf it
Learning about chapter 1 fortnite until 2024 is a shame. The approach at updates, fornightmares and how this video is narrated reminds me so much to club penguin, would have been nice to take on fortnite when club penguin closed. I wouldn't know if i like the "doing shenanigans" approach more than the "building up a story" that we have rn. Probably not since the fist one requies a lot of updates.
Really good series. Though I noticed you use modern Fortnite footage here and there. I think it would be more fitting for all your commentary footage to be of said season
PLEASE tell me you're going to do a retrospective video for every Chapter 1 season. Season 8 was probably my favorite because one could get the Battle Pass for free by doing challenges in Season 7 and then all the map changes, guns, you name it. And to add to that, Hybrid is my favorite skin.
dont like people who say that C1S7 is the best season in chapter 1 ignoring how busted planes were, how the boombox was just a cheap anti build item, the failure of the infinity blade, and vaulting of all the burst ARs but i feel like it was less boring than season 6 at least
i remember majority of this season people krpt theorising we would get a new building material with kevin personally this season was pretty good to me wasn't as good as 5 but still fun i still don't know if nightshade is meant to be a pumpkin or a tomato either way calamity was 100% carrying this season in terms of skins
As someone who started playing in CH1S8, lemme say: Chapter 1 was pretty goated. Chapter 2 had some good moments (Season 2, 3, 4, 7, 8) but had some MAJOR letdowns. Looking at you, season 6. Chapter 3 was pretty alright but kinda mid at times. Chapter 4 was surprisingly awesome, and Chapter 5 was PAINFULLY mid.
I miss the effort they used to put in to newer seasons chapter 1 was definitely a special time glad I got to experience it
wtf this exact vid literally disproves the idea that they used to put a lot of effort into the game
They did put effort, it just was effort that wasn't so favored by the players. I miss it though@@SneakoV2
Chapter 5 season 4 objectively has more effort than season 6

dawg I joined in chapter 5 and like compared to more recent, this seems so much more fun bruh.
Trust me, it was
Fortnite Season 3-8 were the best thing that could happen to the Gaming community
It was chapter 5 sucks
you had to be there for food fight man, it was so good

I remember that, I was so excited when I got all that levels for a quest, I also remember lobbys full of tier 100 skins
I also got this, for a while I thought it was an exploit or smth 😅
That was in the Fortnitemares challenges not in the weekly challenges

Literally one of the best rated seasons and best performing in terms of player count in chapter 3,4 & 5
Towards the end was. The glitch with the blade and then they added too much. Star Wars and odm. Then the jungle season after that was just 2 Ls
bro that season was in my top 4. chapter 4 was so much better just the augments and graphics it was perfect
How do you not have more subscribers this is criminal man
Please continue this series!! You do such a great job!!
11:35 Wow, I forgot how much variety the Fortnite lootpool used to have. I don’t understand why they don’t stack lootpools like this anymore
Buddy forgot ch1 season 9 and 10 exist when making this season 6 is soo much better than them

I missed the season 6 umbrella, not because I didnt play, but because I somehow managed to play hundreds of matches without getting a single win...

one crazy fact: in s7 they teased in a linx loading screen meowscule skin, released 2+ years after

I liked the movement with bhopping using the shadow stones
Love the videos. I can't wait for more
Never really understood the hype with season 5 and 6. Sure it was still fun but something about those seasons felt oddly different from seasons 1-4
I love how he compares Disco Domination to PvZ:GW Suburbination instead of CoD Domination. A fellow man of culture
Ch1 Season 6 was my favorite one of all time. I loved all the changes, items, and skins with the map changes. I understand everyone has their own thoughts and that's what makes it special because everyone is entitled to anything they like :)
