RE: Why people need to calm down about Fortnite and PUBG

in #gaming7 years ago (edited)

I hadn't even heard of the controversy going on with Fornite vs. PUBG. All I've heard about lately with PUBG is that people are pissed at the streamers that play it, as well as the devs because they've been basically banning people left and right at the behest of the Streamers, even if the streamer has no proof of streamsniping. Been seeing this all over Reddit, Steam, and forums lately.

Well, that and Player Unknown going from saying there won't be microtransactions in game so he could focus his time and resources on developing it, to now having lootboxes that require keys, lol.

Anyways, people who think that Fortnite is a carbon copy are silly, and do need to calm down, I agree. The argument is a silly one, since the genre of Battle Royal has been around a lot longer than just with PUBG. I mean, heck, probably most of the player base of H1Z1 has moved on to PUBG, and they're very similar games. You could easily claim that PUBG is just a polished carbon copy of H1Z1.

Remember when The Culling was around (You know, before it got destroyed from the patches)? That right there is another battle royale game that was similar to how PUBG was. So, did PUBG copy that as well? It's just a dumb argument. This genre of games can only be so unique from one another, there's going to be a lot in common with one another.

Sort:  

Yes, yes and yes! I totally agree with your response. People need to relax, nobody has the right to say "This is my idea" in this case.

Did you hear that someone got banned in PUBG for excessive using the car horn when they were stream sniping a popular streamer? Now that is a low blow just to keep your popular streamers happy!
