Fortnite released four years ago and is still one of the biggest games in the world. Despite severe competition from Apex Legends, and Call of Duty Warzone, millions of players still play and enjoy Epic Games’ Battle Royale title.

Like any other game, Fortnite’s user-base primarily comprises casual players. On the flip side, there’s a small number of professional players who grind hard for 8-10 hours a day in order to win tournaments and make a name for themselves. Both these factions of gamers often have contrasting demands, and it is a colossal task for the developers to satisfy them.

It seems like Epic Games is facing similar troubles with the recently released Chapter 2 Season 6 of Fortnite. While casual players seem to love the pre-historic theme, pro players have actively criticized the developers for the same.

However, Emad soon realized that he’s being too harsh on the developers. He admitted that Fortnite is simply facing an inevitable downfall, and might recover from it in the near future.

Popular Fortnite content creator, AussieAntics, also opened up about Chapter 2 Season 6 on Twitter. Surprisingly, he claimed that he’s already bored with the new season, and recommended some major improvements in makeshift weapon mechanics.

Lastly, pro player for NRG Esports, Clix called Fortnite “dry”.

In contrast, 100 Thieves’ player MrSavage seems to love the new season in Fortnite.

Competitive Fortnite is way different from regular public matches. Accordingly, every minor change in the meta drastically impacts the strategies and play style of professional players. On the flip side, casual players always love new content, and have no pressure to adapt to the meta quickly.

Prominent Fortnite creator thatdenverguy talked about Chapter 2 Season 6 in a recent video.
