Everyone's Favorite Star Wars Character is Now in Fortnite

I liked Rey and Finn fine. It’s TLJ I hated.
Finn had potential but was mishandled since his first scene, but Rey is a garbage character.

She could have been interesting if TLJ wasn't shit, but that movie and everything we know about her in Rise retroactively make her even in TFA a just flat out shitty character.

It's not so much this thread, I've noticed quite a bit of anti-Fortnite sentiment on GAF in general.

It's basically taken the place that COD occupied last gen.

My post was more of an ironic way to say that Rey is so whatever that even a Stormtrooper painted in red is cooler than her. I should have been more clear.

But I agree with you about the Fortnite hate. Its art is too millennial for my taste but it has a very solid gameplay and a lot of content for a free game. Definitely it doesn't deserves the condescension it gets.

No worries man. I'm apathetic to Rey and the movies in general, was only ever into the SW universe because of the games.

I also don't think they translated Rey into the game very well either. The movie stills I've seen of her are a lot prettier than the Fortnite skin, heh.

The Sith Trooper is my favourite of the three skins that are currently being advertised so your initial post made sense to me XD

The fact that Fortnite is occupying people's heads rent-free is certainly a plus for Epic. CliffyB probably wishes LawBreakers had even 1/4 of that mindshare. (I thought that game was a super solid product but it just didn't capture enough of a playerbase to hit critical mass.)

Fucking A. It's not even that Rey, Finn, Egon, Venkman I mean Rey, Finn, and Generic Storm Trooper painted in Red are in it. It's the fact that their characters look SO FUCKING bland. If names were not attached to this, I would not be able to tell who the fuck the black dude and the woman are. They just look that fucking generic.

Oh shit are you telling me that i can use the new shitty characters in that shitty game?

This is too much for my poor heart...
 
Literally no one cares about these characters. Rey is a complete Mary Sue and Finn had potential but was made into a comic relief janitor. The characters people care about in this series are either dead or will be dead by the end of RotS.

What a cluster this film trilogy has ended up being 🤣
