So, Fortnite. The Infinity Blade. It seems that whenever Epic introduce something new that affects the core game for a limited but significant amount of time, a lot of players get VERY upset, and want it cordoned off in an LTM as opposed to impacting the main Battle Royale. (1/x) 
And as we see in some of these responses, they feel like Epic caving in to their demands is the only right/sensible course of action. That Fortnite should be beholden to their desires. Unsurprisingly, I don't share this attitude. (2/x)
For me, a big part of the appeal of Fortnite is, as I've often talked about, the way the world feels alive with possibility, a little chaotic, not just an environment that exists to give players what they want. (3/x)
Does that mean I like everything that gets added to the game? No, I don't. But I LIKE that I don't like everything. I don't want it to feel safe, or predictable. And frankly it's odd to me that so many people seem to want the game to give them exactly what they want. (4/x)
Sometimes, sometimes there's value in games giving us what we don't want. In confronting and adapting to that. I hope Fortnite keeps it up. (5/5)
Aaaaand there it goes. This sucks. (6/5)
