  • LEGO Fortnite was released on December 7th of 2023 and took the world by storm. Since then, as of February, the game is barely sitting at around one tenth of the player count within Battle Royale at all times. This video is just a short rant about LEGO Fortnite and why I think the player base dropped so hard.

    The thing with Lego Fortnite is that there’s no goal. It doesn’t feel satisfying updating your village and getting new items. You just painfully wander around aimlessly until you find the next biome or a boss. It’s one of those games where you play it, have fun, and then never touch it again.

    The biggest reason it didn't catch on between myself and my kids was the lack of a full creative mode. My kids spend hours building custom worlds in Minecraft and we were all hyped for Lego.

      Yeah, the devs knew what they were doing when they created the game IMO. Even building using the given templates in the game is a pain. I immediately got bored and left. And unfortunately, while they could implement building mechanics similar to what you could see on Ultimate Build (if you've ever played that game on Roblox), it would only realistically work for keyboard and mouse players, so controller users would basically become barred from the lack of a KB+M. @@butterman59

  • @DrBeevo

    The problem I have is this mode singlehandedly holds back every item shop. You want emotes that were in rotation in December? Well you can't, because there's no Lego version, and this is just an example. They keep rotating recent items out of the shop because they have a Lego version. Certain collabs were brought back like Rick & Morty, but not ones that people actually want like AOT/Master Chief/Etc, which is a separate issue.

    I mean Palworld lost like 83% of it's concurrent users in 3 weeks and its still declining. Honestly this seems to be the Survival Game trend where they blow up and see insane numbers (ARK, Valheim, LEGO, Palworld, VRising etc.) but can't put out enough content to keep the majority interested for more then a month or two. Another problem is Survival games simply rely on players continuing to build and create their own fun instead of creating some sort of endgame loop thats fun for those who aren't out here trying to build every castle from Game of Thrones.

    The main reason there has been a lack of updates is due to Epic employees being on break. especially the employees who worked on the new games, they got an extra week off allegedly.
    that's why the game had barely any updates late December and all of January.
    BR also didn't even experience updates during that time and the entire community was complaining
    in saying that, the teams are all back now and I'm glad epic has been making sure they got good holiday time and the rest they need. but launching lego fortnite at a time where you are going to have no one working on it was not probably the best move

    It needs it's own "redstone", they sort of have a vehicle system, but they need to expand on it drastically, because right now the biggest issues i see is that the sandbox aspect is heavily limited, and there's a lack of survival mode content for people to grind. They need to focus more on the sandbox mode first in my opinion, because that type of gameplay can keep more players around for longer, whereas survival only content is something people beat once and then leave, both are important, but the sandbox needs more sand to keep relevance.

    I mean, you're not wrong. I say that as someone who loves the game, but I am taking a hiatus as I have done everything there is to do. Twice over! (i'm on a server with other people also). Even building is a little stale because there is nothing new to build. No new furniture, walls, or items. We don't even have actual doors you can put inside the homes to make a bathroom door. Also, I think the need for mining is obsolete after you get to the Frost biome. I'm not the strongest brute fighter, but they are not at all as terrifying as i once thought. There needs to be enemies that are tough to fight in solo, but also fun and worth grouping up for with groups. An actual endgame. I'd also like a reason to keep building in survival. Outside of getting your village to level 10, there is no reason to. idk. I really hope they turn the game around, it really has the potential to be great.

    my take is, its fire but the content is so lame. minecraft was always cool beacause even when there was less content, there were plenty of blocks to get creative with. lego fortnite made freehanding incredibly difficult, and so it loses that aspect of "infinite content" compared to minecraft. on top of that, the fact that there was actually no content update until a month or two after release? and even then it was a couple of daggers? what is with this game. and then we finally get a propper "update" but its literally just fishing and a machine to process the fish. insane that they thought this was a viable strategy to maintain momentum.

      I'm confused by everyone saying that it needed updates immediately. Many moons ago games would have the longevity of months even years before a new title or release and the content in it was enough to hold people over for said time. People aren't meant to game for a third of their day, they're meant to play a couple hours tops. If you play at a regular pace and hop in every once a while until the game updates (which it has recently) then you retain the excitement. Over indulgence has made people massively ungrateful, that's before considering this is a game WITHIN a game.

    as a minecraft fan(yes i play both games), lego fortnite was like playing minecraft for the first time ever a 2nd time, just with alot less polish. but for the first couple days of playing it was just nice being in a new snadbox game where i didnt know every little thing about it and actually learning things as i went, like i actively avoided watching vids on lego fortnite to figure things out on my own
    i didnt mind having to travel and find biomes(im too used to MC), but what i find atrociously annoying is how resources dont regenerate stuff like stones and knotwood, like youll eventually run every cave in your vacinity dry, move onto caves farther away, run them dry and rinse and repeat and you going like 100 miles away to remake tools and THATS when travelling gets tedious, seriously and with how brittle tools where and still a bit are its annoying, like in minecraft you can always default to stone tools with just how much stone there is and you can just make a cobblestone generater or heck if you mine youll find iron and then just get a snowball rolling but in lego fortnite youve gotta go to caves in forests to get tools, go back to base to make tools to make knotwood, go back to caves to get said wood then back to base then go to some far off land. and yeah the workbench needing to be upgraded just makes having to go back to base to make the smallest items most of which requireing some upgrades levels is tedious. but this is all coming from someone constantly compareing it to minecraft cause it reminds me so much of it
    and the enemie system is just a bit too rpg like, like first its wolves and skeletons, then suddenly is wolves...but in sand, and skeletons...but with... pirate hats
    and yeah the inventory was very small
    and like people call villagers in minecraft op and well i can see that id rather a system like that than what is in the game currently

    30+ villagers can visit your villages, but you can only have a max of 15 across all villages. In what world does that make sense? They added three more, but that means you have to get rid of three in order to get them. And then you can have 3 villages maxed, or spread them out. Thank god I've only every played solo. I can't imagine a group of friends having to decide which village is allowed to have villagers. And while it's open world, it's also not. Minecraft you can dig up, destroy, build anything. Lego Fortnite you can only build certain things, only destroy certain things, only explore certain things. After a short period it just feels confined....So much wasted potential.
