For me, the 30 minutes after work is ideal to switch off, to make any mental effort.
Other games such as GhostRecon Wildlands, etc. Although fun, but are much more demanding gameplay ago. Of course, this requires that you have to concentrate more. For me only irregularly possible, since I also have a real life…
First of all, you should detach yourself from the attitude of you. Not everyone likes Fortnite and you are not special if you do not like it.
Why Fortnite is so successful can't be said that easily.
This is a bit of an internet phenomenon like Gagnamstyle or Ice Bucket Challenge. It starts with an idea or a work of art and when it creates a hype from it. If it is big enough, everyone gets it and as a society one is almost forced to expose oneself so as not to be excluded.
Now Fortnite with the simple gameplay and the comic graphics. Talking to many young people, it has also spread quickly among those who otherwise have nothing to do with video games so as not to use the nasty phrase "getting mainstream".
In addition, there's a lot of publicity about well-known sizes in the video game community, and the subject of video games gets a kind of legitimacy as usual.
Maybe this is a permanent change and Fortnite was just lucky with the time. Or maybe it's just a phase and video games will soon be back in business. To be a nonsense hobby of nerds.
Fortunately, Fortnite is not a special video game. But many people like it and that's okay. Do not be the one who wants to ruin others just because they are "fellow runners".
Although I must confess that the hype annoys me a bit and it is now good again ;-)
You say Fortnite would not be so demanding?
One question: are you good at the game?
because Fortnite can be quite demanding. You have to look at the construction skills of very good players (like Ninja), because you will get eye cancer
You can also play games or create your own world
What does good. I have a few solo victories, a few team victories. Rather so mediocre.
With "not so demanding" I mean for myself as a console player, that I do not have to play so concentrated and despite my mediocrity, from time to time a kill and win.
I do not build so much (on console also more complicated). I take the sneaky kill style of play.
Eye cancer? That does not exist.
Muthant already describes it well.
It's just current hype is someday replaced by the next hype.
From what I have seen and played it is a solid current game. I just do not like Arena shooter and Battle Royal even less.
Which does not mean that the game is bad.
With the presentation and the fact that it is free2play and especially from 12 it speaks a lot of younger players to the then also rather give in to the hype and also want to do what "the others" do.
Similar to a time with Minecraft was the case.
