Shame on you for saying Fortnite popularized Battle Royals. Player Unknown’s Battlegrounds is the one that did it. Hell, before that, Fortnite was a zombie survival game and only added Battle Royal as an alternative mode after the fact
I have over a hundred hours in PUBG so I’m not claiming Fortnite invented the genre but you can’t deny that Fortnite isn’t the game that made it blow up.
PUBG had no marketability. Gritty gameplay, toxic community, aimed at adults, and an awful name. It was also $30 and PC-only until after Fortnite blew up.
Fortnite was bright and silly and on every platform and F R E E.
Name a game that doesn’t have a toxic multiplayer community. It’s pretty pointless to characterize a game this way since it’s universally the same every where. It’s the internet.
Yup. The first of its kind was the mod for arma 2 and 3. The popularity of that mod led to H1Z1 which also involved player unknown in its BR development.
Only after that did Fortnite come out and capitalize on the existing BR hype that player unknown manifested.

I mean it also has some toxic players, but they are really rare.
Pretty sure we’re talking about competitive pvp games here and not co-op games. I assumed that would go without saying.

I played PUBG when it was only an Arma mod.
PUBG is still kicking! More so in Asia, but I still play semi regularly w my friends
