Can Fortnite,a free-to-play battle royale game,be taking the same route as WoW,a MMORPG from 2004?
Well,from what I have seen in my previous experiences with both games and information found onlline I can safelly assume Fortnite has been taking the same route as WoW once did,lore,gameplay enjoyment and popularity.
Fortnite Season 1 & 2: From the experience I got out of playing the game I found season 1 & 2 the most fun to play seasons of all.It sounds a lot like Vanilla WoW,from what I heard.It was fun,It was hard,everyone was bad at the game and you met a lot of new people.The game’s popularity was rising and it was Medieval themed.
Fortnite Season 3 & … 6: Just like BC during this time aliens invaded the world,making a lot of changes to the game,the game was really fun to play and the game was probably at it is highest amount of players.
Fortnite Season 7: New season just like WoTLK,Ice King with an army.Ice King’s sword.New snowy zone.Supervillain.People start quitting the game.
Your comparison has been dubbed as sacrilege by the Spanish Inquisition.
Prepare all you’d like, you’ll never be able to expect their arrival.

Did WoW ever get sued over the use of its dances like Fortnite is?

Am I the only person here who would rather play UT, TF2 or Quake than Fortnight and Overwatch? Am I just old and out of touch now?

I’ve never played Fortnite myself, personally. I don’t even know much about it, just kinda heard about it in passing. Overwatch I’d play if it wasn’t a FPS. I’m personally not an FPS person.
Edit: EPIC repetition there, Falls.

You can’t compare a free to play game with wow.
I never played Fortnite. Is any character from that game popular like Illidan, Arthas, Jaina, Sylvannas, Tyrande, Malfurion, Kael’thas, Thall and many others?
I’m down to play UT and Quake, but after seeing enough gameplay videos on Fortnite, it’s not the game for me at all. I recently played PUBG on mobile and it wasn’t half bad. Don’t know if even the PC version will hold my interest for too long, but ironically I kicked butt in my very first game and our team was #1 for that round.
I like Overwatch. I enjoy that its not just your typical FPS but there’s team based elements in that each characters has different abilities. I’ve never been one to like TF2; buddy of mine plays/played but it never really appealed to me.
As I start to learn more about Twitch streaming, I realize that my best bet is to diversify my gameplay. I noticed that the top streamed game on Twitch is Fortnite, but that’s where I draw the line. I’ll play other games, but Fortnite doesn’t even look fun to me…
Blizzard only charges money for access to the game, the dances are complimentary. Epic Games meanwhile has a price tag attached to all the dances, if they did not attach the price tag they might not have been sued.

We got our kids to stop playing Fortnite by me and wife acting super excited and talking about all the great things about fortnite. Then we got the grandparents to do it.
Problem solved

I tried Fortnite and it just wasn’t for me.
A lot of my nieces and nephews play it and love it so maybe it is a younger persons game.
People on these forums suggested battle royale or -like BGs even before the current batch topping the charts. But WoW’s technology couldn’t handle it apparently. Can only wonder where WoW would be right now if it could.
Dances can be copyrighted so their use, complimentary or not, still requires permission from the copyright holder. Fortnite apparently didn’t do that. The fact it was a purchased thing more helps the client set a numerical value to the suit. WoW could have been sued regardless but given that its been so long it’s likely safe to say they went through proper legal procedures.
I played UT '99 and Counter-Strike 1.6 within the last 48 hours. I have both Fortnite and Overwatch on this machine and chose to play something else. I also played some AoE 2. It’s not just you.
Firstly, fortnite and overwatch are completely different games.
Secondly, overwatch is literally TF2 with more characters.
I thought only preteens play Fortnite?
Ohhhh, so this is what they call a “Sunday Thread” around these parts.
Wow, im out of words.

I miss those games. They were a lot of fun.
