StaceyPowers Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 There is a lot of discussion of battle royale games here, and I sometimes see some of you mention not being a fan. For those of you who don’t like battle royale, why don’t you? And for those of you who do, what do you like about it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 In the beginning, I did like Fortnite but the whole Battle-Royale thing has become so oversaturated and most of them are carbon copies of Fortnite or PUBG. The whole genre lacks creativity barring a couple of games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 RIght in the middle, can be both at times. I do not play much Battle-Royale anyway but can be loving at first then a pain and wish you didn't get into the game from the start, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 I prefer battle royale when I get extremely bored. I think having better mood for it is then only it can be worth it. Other than that I think I hate the battle royale when I am in mood of getting other games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 I have only rarely played a battle royale game. Usually an option on a game cart. Like on Conker's Bad Fur Day there's a secondary game that is a battle royale. It was "fun" on a rare occasion, but not enough to garner any actual real interest for me. Add in the fact that it seems that most battle royale games nowadays are online games, and I have significantly less interest than before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndreiMirfi Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 I actually Battle Royale, but playing it after a while, you get very bored of it. They should update it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 I think it's also getting a norm lately. Like if it's FPS then it has to get the MMO or Battle royale mode so that players can have some sort of variety with the content. That's how I have noticed.

Empire Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 The advantages of these gamemodes is you can play and win with zero contribution to or from your team and a low skill ceiling in most modern games. The hype that comes with this is any kid or adult with two brain cells can pick up the game and play. They might do good or awful but if they live longer than last time it's technically an improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kane99 Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 I am not a big fan of the battle royale games. I tried to like fortnite, Apex Legends and COD Warzone, but I just can't stick with it. I get too much anxiety from playing with a group, and I am not very good. So when I have to be relied on to help someone, I get really anxious. They're technically not bad games, they do what they're supposed to do and quite well, they're just not for me. But, that's in regards to first & third person shooter BR games. I get into the weird ones like Mario 35, where you play with 35 others playing the same levels. Last survivor wins. I want more of those types of games, more puzzle oriented, or platform oriented.

I understand that some people don't like online games especially the ones with a whole lot going on in a round but it's just that Battle-Royale games to me feel kind of...cheap and lazy.

skyfire Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 It does get repetitive. And so many PUBG and fortnite players are also changing different game per day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PUBG hardly rolls out updates anyways and most are cosmetic and the events are cool and all in Fortnite but it gets extremely dull after a while.

Syntax Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 I think it changed the game landscape for a bit, but now that it's flooded with good and bad examples, only the true winners shine. What makes it worse is that not much can be changed on the gameplay (other than just having new weapons, or cosmetic items, or changing the map). So it kind of gets boring fast once you really go at it and keep playing the game over and over again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrik Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 I personally don't play any game that's based on Battle Royale for just one reason : who camps, wins. I really hate how all of these battle royale games waste time, you literally spend the whole match looting and preparing yourself, then a dude who was camping the whole match kills you...

Camping isn't the word you're looking for. It's hiding because every player has to stay within a designated area or their health will decrease until you die so you have to constantly move around. However, you'll have people who hide the entire game and then right at the end of the match pops up to kill you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
