The debate around Fortnite on Nintendo Switch has stirred up quite the storm. Our very own accomplished cyber-commander, Accomplished-One6774, recently reported a glitch in a ranked match that, in their words, made the game virtually ‘unplayable’.
Summary
- Users report mixed experiences, highlighting both the difficulties and the unusual satisfaction of playing the mega-popular battle royale on Nintendo’s hybrid device.
- Performance issues have caused some distress among the community but the majority of users find the game enjoyable despite these challenges.
- Some laud praise on how Epic Games managed to run such a demanding game on a device primarily built for less resource-taxing Nintendo games.
The Mixed Bag of Reactions
While Accomplished-One6774 points out a frustrating glitch, other players like GetRealPrimrose cheerfully proclaim they’ve never experienced any such issues, fuelling the debate further. The unshakable ZainullahK meekly reminds us to ‘give them credit. They’re running an unreal engine 5 title on a device with the power of a weakish phone from 2015.’
Players Persevere
Surprisingly, despite the discussed technical issues, many players like Oihcim315 power on stating ‘It’s awful and I still play it‘. This highlights the fixation and love for the game.
Expected Issues?
Finally, some users like Freya_von_Blah argue that ‘Fortnite is a very demanding game on the the Switch’ and it’s ‘impressive’ it runs normally. This suggests that gamers understand that performance issues are inevitable on less powerful consoles.
Through all the stormy debates and fiery discussions, one thing is clear. No matter the glitches or graphics, true fans, like deadbeatPilgrim, equate the Nintendo Switch experience to playing with ‘DBZ training weights on’. The gamers’ spirit, it appears, is as resilient and versatile as Fortnite’s storm-filled landscape itself.
