Fortnite: Save The World
About
Fortnite is a survival simulator with an open world.
The primary goal of the game is to collect resources and then try to survive at day and night directly. Players will gather in teams to collect items that they can use to build a Fort during the day and to defend against zombies at night. Construction will be the main mechanics, a lot of items will be in the game. Players can build and edit each wall of their Fort, build stairs, roof and windows, sculpting them according to a particular need. The terrain and map in the game are randomly generated, and players are given various ranged weapons (like a sniper rifle) as well as edged weapons (like a katana). You can also create weapons, and character skills can be customised through upgrades.
The game features four different classes: ninja, alien, commando, and builder. Different classes have different abilities. For example, the builder builds faster and cheaper, and also strengthens the buildings themselves. And the ability to melee is much better in the ninja class than in other classes. Players can also destroy environment objects and scenery to get resources.

Fortnite: Save The World reviews and comments

First, the things I liked about Fortnite. It has a wacky cartoonish style and ridiculously goofy environment. It looks interesting and reminds me of the Worms franchise with all these strange-looking weapons and junk-filled maps.
There are a bunch of interesting mechanics that were new to me. Like building shelters or entire buildings on the go and collecting resources. Or starting a match with no firearm. There are also other small things, which, when combined, make Fortnite a fresh experience.
Then, it's a third-person shooter, and I tend to like third-person action games more because it usually means you have a different field of vision and perspective leading to small changes in tactics and the manner of playing. In fact, while I was writing this review, I learned that Epic explicitly told that it was not going to bring a first-person mode, unlike its competitors PUBG or H1Z1. All in all, I prefer third-person games, and this was a good thing for me.
Finally, it is overwhelmingly popular, so I waited a match to start for a minute just once. Usually it was all very quick. Definitely a good thing, if you want to just casually play a couple of matches.
As for the things I didn't like. Well, I guess they are the same for me for all online shooters, so I won't whine about lagging servers, annoying other players, etc. Also matches are too long for me (there are 100 players and the map is relatively big). But Fortnite is fun, trust me. I'll hardly play it again, but I recommend anybody to try it.
But SK's OST is still unbeatable.
