I just tried giving Fortnite an actual try yesteday and i can see why people find if entertaining. But i personally enjoy PUBG more, coming from playing Counter Strike most of my life.
But the optimization is being worked on with PUBG, and my wooden PC can now run it somewhat decent compared 2-3 months ago, if they keep up the pace then they might have a chance to. But it seems like social media has picked up Fortnite as their go-to meme when they're dry, and we all know that memes is what makes shit popular today.
