I played Fortnite when the Battle Royale mode first came out, and I enjoyed it for a while. Like everyone else, the concept was new and fresh for me, and I had a really good time playing it with friends. I fell off after a while, and haven't kept up with the new updates.A friend recently convinced me to redownload the game, and it's as fun as I remember. The no-build mode is a welcome addition as I never got the hang of building. The game's been massively expanded with new weapons and mechanics. There are a slew of new movement mechanics that make getting around the map really snappy, which really helps alleviate the slog of my squad's playstyle of "land on edge of may -> loot for 30 minutes -> get into fight and die and come top 5".
Pulling off wins is tough but not impossible, and games are pretty quick. Fortnite is never going to be my main game, but there's a reason it's so popular and it's a good time playing a couple matches a week if you've got friends to play with.
Verdict: Endless (Multiplayer)
