Something something low cost contract i guess

[gloomy shuttle]

I know, but it's a funny coincidence.

[ornate zinc]

Honestly i still don’t expect rumble to last as long

[gloomy shuttle]

I don't either.

Just wanted to share it cuz it's silly, I'd give it like a year before they just stop it entirely

[wary loom]

marketing and release was bad at start

game is better than fall guys but sadly they started bad

[gloomy shuttle]

Too bad they're also only on mobile & PC.

If it was on consoles too, it probably would've done fine.

[ornate zinc]

Lmao

[normal eagle]

genuinely has there ever really been a time where the villan won in fortnite??

[ornate zinc]

“Technically” yes

Chapter 5 season 1 had Valeria won causing the events of season 2

Season 3 had Doom Win due to him sabotaging megalodon

Chapter 7 season 1 had dark voyager win

That said whoever wins isn’t gonna affect the story just the final prize

[normal eagle]

oh so the rocks gonna win regardless then 🗿

[ornate zinc]

Probably

I don’t know where they’re getting it’ll affect the story part
Since the description doesn’t say anything about it

Though, it is funny cause ice king is basically original outfits beside the ice king but the foundation is collabs and reusing characters

[lapis arch]

Nailed it

[gloomy shuttle]

Personally would rather have the Ice King skin only because I much prefer it over The Foundation by design.

Even if it wasn't tied to the Rock (who I don't really care for personally), The Foundation by design is just kinda whatever (okay, fine).

Just some dude in cool looking armor.

[tall forge]

Chapter 3 season 4 final event the cube queen destroyed the island

And like actually destroyed it since the rest of the event was building a new island

[ornate zinc]

They destroyed Alpha’s favorite island

[tall forge]

Apparently epic is making a tdm first person mode?

[normal eagle]

it genuinely might have been the most balanced island POI and geographically

friend bought me outlast trials and ive been playing that... its so weird

[normal eagle]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-it's-peak-cat-it's-peak-it's-mid-orange-cat-gif-17883059146133370492

[tall forge]

I played it for a bit

Not a fan of horror and gore but that was something I could sorta stomach since I’ve seen some gameplay

[normal eagle]

yea it doesnt really gross me out or scare me. im just more confused about alot of it

[wild shale]

i wonder what the plan is for the other costume now that we know both are just in the game already

[ornate zinc]

Event or challenges

Ice king is around 40 Million rivals wins ahead despite the boost foundation got for today

Reminder that they weren’t expecting ice king to be in the lead

[hazy rune]

Is everyone here team ice king?

Im the winning team i guess

[tall forge]

Oh mans such a hard v bucks mission rn power lvl 9

[tall forge]

Me is

[ornate zinc]

Ice king isn’t even a villain, so i don’t know why fortnite made him seem like the villain

[tall forge]

I know instead of giving his followers guns and weapons he’s feeding them pizza

[ornate zinc]

Ice king doesn’t want anyone to get the artifacts nor will he uses them to alter reality to begin with

Just storing it and keeping it safe

Also the ice king giving us pizza is peak

[tall forge]

Exactly

[hazy rune]

Got my first victory royale since i haven’t really played the new season yet

https://tenor.com/view/the-rock-eyebrow-reverse-reverse-the-rock-the-rock-reverse-gif-24755510

This guy i would pick but i went with ice king

[gloomy shuttle]

I would've gone for Team Ice King, but didn't just because I was expecting a bias or rig with that.

And because I HAD to make the one choice, I can't go back to that..

I prefer Ice King over The Foundation anyway design wise.

[gloomy shuttle]

I heard, but never played it. I don't play a ton of horror game as much as I should.

[normal eagle]

dbd and outlast trials are the only two horror games i play

[gloomy shuttle]

I think I played RE4 original, but that's a bit more action-y than full on horror.

[tall forge]

No

Currently level 68 now

There’s also been a mobile game I’ve been playing on the side

[normal eagle]

yes

[ornate zinc]

Ew mushrooms

[uneven wharf]

Someone know how to download in ios?

In Brasil

[turbid sun]

Alright so I'm assuming that WE all went with team ice king (the superior skin)

[tall forge]

Also assuming that too other than knuckles who would change their team

[tall forge]

The irony that this is catch up day for foundation yet team ice king reached their second goal

[gloomy shuttle]

I hate that I can't change back my pick.

I dunno, it's just nowadays.. I don't buy original skins in Fortnite as much unless I really like the skin enough to drop my V-Bucks for it.

I just kinda go with whatever's in the passes and if there's one I genuinely like enough, sure.

Season 1 this chapter had the Dark Voyager, Kingston, and Cat Holloway for me.

And then the only original in the Shop I bought last season was just Pingwin. Only cuz it was a survey skin I would actually buy.

Like, I dunno.. it's not like I don't want more originals to happen. Especially since I do agree that there "should" be more as everyone's different and there are survey designs prior that would've been great to have for anyone who are fans of it.

[hazy rune]

This battle pass is actually mostly good we got a lot of familiar story characters

[gloomy shuttle]

SO many cool designs shown from surveys that would've been awesome to have into the season(s).

[gloomy shuttle]

I just think it's fine, but I kinda prefer Season 1 a bit in terms of the diversity as far as Chapter 7 passes go.

[ornate zinc]

This pass sucks tbh

[gloomy shuttle]

The only positive I can say out of it is that I do like that there's some nice variants for a couple of their originals.

My only problem is most of the originals besides Ice King (imo) are just kinda meh.

[hazy rune]

It’s better than season 1

Bugs bunny was kind of random

[gloomy shuttle]

Eh, to be fair.. Sub-Zero didn't necessarily fit the idea of a Bank Heist season either.

[hazy rune]

Player count is definitely better than it was

[gloomy shuttle]

I mean, the season did just start this week.

[hazy rune]

Was that chapter 6 season 2 i didn’t really play that season that’s why i don’t remember

[gloomy shuttle]

Yes.

Bugs kinda fits in the theme of a "Rivalry" season as he had rivals he dealt against in the shorts

Elmer Fudd, Yosemite Sam, Daffy Duck, Marvin the Martian, Taz, Wil E. Coyote (which he speaks in those shorts), to name a few

[hazy rune]

Oh yeah i have him but i barely got him since i got level 100 on the last day of the season

[turbid sun]

NOOOOO I JUST FOUND OUT TUNG TUNG TUNG SAHUR AND BALLERINA CUPERTINA COLLABS WERE CANCELLED IN FORT 💔💔

[ornate zinc]

Season 1 was better lmao

I literally do not care about the seven

[gloomy shuttle]

I never been as deep with the Fortnite lore.

Like I've seen some of it, but I just mainly come to Fortnite's BR mode for the gameplay. But the events they do "sometimes" can be pretty cool

I wish I was there early into Fortnite, but I had Fall Guys and didn't really wanna have two F2P games to handle at the same time.

Plus didn't have the storage for it until like.. 2021 and when Fall Guys started to burn me out. I jumped in during Chapter 5.

Anyways, Level 67 into the Battle Pass so far.

[gloomy shuttle]

Unfortunately I know you're joking. Wished it was tho.. 🫩

[turbid sun]

no I'm actually serious 😔✌️💔

At least that's what I've heard

[gloomy shuttle]

Any link for that?

[turbid sun]

Oh imma be honest my only source is a random tiktok edit I saw earlier today about tung tung tung sahur 🕊️

[turbid sun]

...

[gloomy shuttle]

WAIT NO

[turbid sun]

SIX SAYVENNN 😂😂😂😂😂

[gloomy shuttle]

I wanna get to 68-69 for tonight at least.

[lapis arch]

Whats up with my friends list bruh why do i have 67 friend

(based skin though)

[ornate zinc]

Is it better than fishsticks

[gloomy shuttle]

Okay, made it to Level 69.

[lapis arch]

Tough choice

[tall forge]

Oh I caught up to you then lol

[lapis arch]

Both are equally peak

[ornate zinc]

I mean fishsticks did screw his reality aka the fish and sea reality

[gloomy shuttle]

Dang, you caught up a bit

[tall forge]

I bought fish sticks so long ago when he first released

[lapis arch]

I mean he was held at gunpoint soooo

[tall forge]

Nah I like caught up completely me is also level 69

[ornate zinc]

He not the original fishsticks tho

[lapis arch]

Also i have to get the fishstick pickaxe its so funny

[tall forge]

I was also dosing off while playing a mobile game

[gloomy shuttle]

I've just been doing other modes to grind like Rocket Racing

And then the Tycoon map

And then doing some BR daily missions

[lapis arch]

I was going to say since we are in an alternate reality the fishstick that died in ch3 didnt died in the current one

[gloomy shuttle]

I wanna try to renew the Crew before April 1st anyway.

[lapis arch]

.... Until i remembered the og died ages ago

[tall forge]

No you don’t

[tall forge]

[gloomy shuttle]

:3

All jokes aside, yeah.. I'll stop at like Level 70 for tonight

Getting close to the Bugs Bunny set at least.

[gloomy shuttle]

Alright, Level 70.

Done for the night with Fortnite at least

[gloomy shuttle]

Oh right, I forgot about last week's Nintendo Music addition.

It was Super Metroid

[charred axle]

Also, The Week Before was Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury

Cartoon Network (@cartoonnetwork)

You know who else has a new show? Regular Show: The Lost Tapes 📼 | Coming May 11th on Cartoon Network

#RegularShow #CartoonNetwork

vxTwitter / fixvx · Mar 23, 2026, 1:00 PM

Basically, this series treats itself as just "here's more Regular Show" and that's about it.

Similar case with Adventure Time and Gumball.

[ornate zinc]

Adventure time is a bit different, since the main focus is no longer exactly finn and jake but the side characters
Gumball hulu is continuing due to the movie being delayed

While Regular show is having between episodes and season
Which isn’t ever gonna be plot relevant to the main show

[tall forge]

Oh yeah I forgot about that bonus backbling for redeeming a v bucks card

[ornate zinc]

It a bunny backbling

@normal eagle rate this orange

[normal eagle]

8/10 perfect sitting posture

[ornate zinc]

4/10

[normal eagle]

why so low

[ornate zinc]

It a uggo

[normal eagle]

they are NOT an uggo

[ornate zinc]

It very Uggo

[gloomy shuttle]

Technically it was shopped, but was never openly mentioned if the film was ever acquired. Because it was during the Discovery merger and things just.. not being good.

Just the series stuck around thanks to Hulu and was originally under the name: "The Amazing World of Gumball: The Series" before it's name got changed.

But yeah, you're right with Adventure Time.

[gloomy shuttle]

It's essentially just.. "Well, these shows are still talked about and there's still an audience for it. Let's greenlit more episodes for those series.".

[fresh falcon]

Currently, doing rank mode in fortnite as easy as before

[gloomy shuttle]

Currently just winding back, getting close to Level 80 at least.

Gotta go to the store soon.

[fresh falcon]

I'm not gonna grind hard until OG pass. So I'm just doing stuff that doesn't really give me that much points. But doing rank mode, because why not

[gloomy shuttle]

Gonna buy a $50 Eshop card so I can get a game on sale.

I wanna buy Nier Automata on Switch.

[fresh falcon]

Interesting

[gloomy shuttle]

It's on sale for $15 right now.

[fresh falcon]

I'm currently diamond and i'm already seeing people currently in unreal

So, yeah, that's gonna take me at least a couple days of just passively doing this to get unreal

[gloomy shuttle]

I haven't cared too much for Ranked.

[fresh falcon]

I don't care for either.I'm just doing it for the pickaxe

And I think they took out doing stuff for reloaded

That's much harder

Or combined

[gloomy shuttle]

Just kinda focusing on completing the first 100 levels in the Battle Pass, then wait til next week.

So I continue on MH Rise.

[fresh falcon]

Fair enough

Usually, doing rank is just camping until the final top ten and then die in a shootout.You get decent points

[gloomy shuttle]

I mean, I still like playing Fortnite. But I gotta mix my games up. lol

[fresh falcon]

I do too

[gloomy shuttle]

I also have to do more Rocket League too.

Only for the Credits

[fresh falcon]

Currently, done with fall guys. Rocket league is just a passive grind and p5x it's whenever they have an update

[gloomy shuttle]

I've stopped playing Fall Guys since October

Ain't touching it for a long time until anything new ever happens.

Which I doubt.

[fresh falcon]

I'm good at fall guys. That it only takes me a couple days just to complete it. And slightly more if i'm just not caring

[gloomy shuttle]

That's fine.

It's just I'm now fully burned out with it nowadays.

[fresh falcon]

completely understandable

[gloomy shuttle]

I still kinda care about Fortnite for a couple aspects, but it's a love/hate thing with Chapter 7 lately.

Mostly for some of the practices Epic's been at lately.

[fresh falcon]

Yeah, I know epic. It's been kind of been more greedy as of late

But to compare to other companies, it's a lot less egregious

[gloomy shuttle]

Oh I know, it ain't AS bad as say Overwatch

$40+ for like.. a skin for 1 character.

[fresh falcon]

I am never a fan of lootbox or keys with lootboxes

[ornate zinc]

Basically fish

[fresh falcon]

I only grudgedly accepted in p5x because I don't buy anything for except for like random. None loot box reasons

[gloomy shuttle]

With Fortnite in terms of cosmetics, I just buy whatever interests or genuinely excites me with what I wanna get or use.

Regardless if Original or Collab

Beyond the passes, I will never buy a Sidekick in the Shop unless it was through a bundle.

[gloomy shuttle]

Btw, as in Persona 5 X?

[fresh falcon]

yes

Big fan of persona

[gloomy shuttle]

That's fair tbh

[fresh falcon]

Basically, it's a good gotcha game but not a good start. If you're wanting to do that franchise

[ornate zinc]

Favorite velvet attendant

[fresh falcon]

Always a fan of p4 attendant

Margaret

[ornate zinc]

Ah, My favorite is elizabeth

[fresh falcon]

I hope eventually we get any persona skins in fortnite

I mean, literally everything fits it perfectly, Even the sidekicks, yes, I know.

[ornate zinc]

I mean i guess they can add koromaru and morgana as pets

[fresh falcon]

Exactly

[ornate zinc]

Question being if morgana would have his cat form or his regular form

[fresh falcon]

I think both

[ornate zinc]

First pet to have a two in one

[tall forge]

But at double the price

[hazy rune]

Im happy that in the battle pass that we actually are getting kicks and sidekicks. Now we just need car cosmetics again.

[fresh falcon]

Technically they do but only rocket league

So you have to play rocket league to get free cars in fortnite

[hazy rune]

I think rocket league is a good game but it gets boring quickly.

Im not really great at it also

[fresh falcon]

Yeah, that's the reason why I do it passive

[ornate zinc]

Basically no reason to put car cosmetics in a Fortnite pass
Since crew come with the rocket league pass

[hazy rune]

I guess but some people don’t play rocket league but want those cosmetics

[ornate zinc]

Then play ranked RR

[hazy rune]

No updates

I don’t just want to play just for cosmetics i want to have fun while doing it

[ornate zinc]

I mean you can’t fix that problem

Anyway y’all think we’re gonna get a Sonic Adventure or Advance port or remake in the future

[limpid reef]

like, adventure on dreamcast? that would be nice

or an actual adventure dx port with all the bonus features

also a good sa2 port would be nice, the current one is pretty bleak

[ornate zinc]

I would love a remaster or remake of SA2

With fixed audio lines

[limpid reef]

sa2 would actually benefit a lot from small QoL changes

light dash being its own button would be heavenly

[ornate zinc]

They should add a radio with songs from other games in the chao garden

[limpid reef]

also the emerald stages being maybe a little more rank friendly because something like mad space basically requires you to use monitors to finish in a reasonable timeframe

[ornate zinc]

Fun fact, you can just die or restart the mission to get a easy A

[limpid reef]

wdym

[ornate zinc]

Emerald mission’s are base on the timer

And because reset doesn’t really reset your collected emeralds
You can abuse that

[limpid reef]

theyre based on score, which can be gotten from the time bonus but you get a flat point amount from collecting an emerald dependant on how fast you did it

[ornate zinc]

It does reset the emerald placement, but also monitors

[limpid reef]

maybe theres a level where you can abuse that but it doesnt seem practical

either way mission 4 doesnt give you checkpoints i dont think

[gloomy shuttle]

Nah, I don't think they will.

It just seems more like they're just counting back down til they then do a proper "35th Anniversary" hype into June.

I could see them teasing the next mainline Sonic game this year tho.

[tall forge]

Soup

[gloomy shuttle]

SEGA doesn't really seem like they wanna do a full-on remake anyway.

[ornate zinc]

And time

hows everyone doing this evening?

[gloomy shuttle]

Fine, just got back from the grocery store and bought a $50 Eshop card

And a $10 for the Crew. :v

[normal eagle]

nice

[gloomy shuttle]

I'm planning to get Nier Automata as I see it being on sale for $15.99

[normal eagle]

oh cool

[gloomy shuttle]

I've wanted to play that game for a long while.

It'd be my first playing a Nier game

[normal eagle]

never played them, but heard they're really good

[gloomy shuttle]

I hope the other Nier games come to Switch 2 tho

As someone who don't own a PS5, Xbox or PC. I just hope for more third party ports of games I've longed to try out. Lmao

[normal eagle]

yea. i imagine cuz the switch 2 is more powerful third party ports are more likely

[gloomy shuttle]

We got Resident Evil 9 at day 1 of launch, which is insane.

[normal eagle]

oh i didnt know that

[gloomy shuttle]

Yeah, it came out alongside the other console ports.

[hazy rune]

That’s nice i never really bought anything from eshop im more of a physical person and i also just got crew because you would miss out on season launch rewards.

[hazy rune]

I still have my original Nintendo switch not sure when im going to upgrade

[normal eagle]

fair

[gloomy shuttle]

If you're mainly waiting for more first party titles to drop, depends on what you're waiting for exactly

I bought the Switch 2 mainly cuz of it being a powerful Switch that finally can get better third party support.

But also GameCube NSO, DK Bananza & Kirby Air Riders.

[hazy rune]

I already got a ps5 so i should probably not buy anything big for a bit.

[gloomy shuttle]

That's fine tbh.

[inland grotto]

Made a 32x32 self-portrait. I am getting...... so very bald.

[gloomy shuttle]

But ye, I bought the $50 just so I'm case there's a game I wanna aim for that's on sale.

I have plenty of games within my wishlist on Switch that I wanna get for my library.

[tall forge]

Maybe I can get to lvl 100 today

[versed yacht]

Fortnite without quests or friends to play with is a bit boring for me, idk why you all rush the pass that fast lol

I take my time and do all story quests along with some Ranked when I feel like it

Farming XP might be useful if there is like 1 week remaining for the pass to end and you haven't finished yet, but with 2 months remaining!? Couldn't be me

[gloomy shuttle]

Only cuz I wanna get it out of the way and unlock the passes' content that matter to me.

So that I can focus on other games after the fact. I still play Fortnite with friends on a few occasions for fun and vibes when those times do happen.

But I just like to get the pass done quick sometimes.

[gloomy shuttle]

Well if SEGA is more on board with doing Fortnite collabs, then sure.

[tall forge]

So we don’t have to worry later and also this pass sorta sucks

[gloomy shuttle]

I don't "hate" it, but the original skins this season by their defaults are kinda boring to me

I just like the new Ice King skin and Bugs Bunny.

While the Squid, The Foundation variant and Lady Windfrost are just.. okay.

I just don't care for Dasha, the new Jules variant, and The Order as much here.

Season 1 had a better selection by the current chapter's standards anyway.

[versed yacht]

I don't like that most of the pass isn't really new

Order, Foundation and Ice King aren't new, and the squid has almost every item inspired on the fish skin

Besides the glider

[wild shale]

weird how sega hasnt done any skins yet

yakuza, persona and sonic would be such easy sells

[versed yacht]

Valid point

[wild shale]

i wonder if bayonetta would be possible as wlel

[gloomy shuttle]

Too bad people want less collabs anyway. 🥲

[wild shale]

i think sega owns the ip for bayo, but not the publishing rights for recent games

[gloomy shuttle]

Yeah they don't.

[wild shale]

so they could add her since they own the character

but they might be only able to do designs from the first game

[gloomy shuttle]

Looks sorry for having to say the "people want less collab" jab. But I'm tired of the collab frequency debate. -_-

I agree there are bad things about it especially with what's been going on into this chapter.

[wild shale]

yeah, personally i dont really play fortnite anymore so idk if id even buy them if they came

i still enjoy the game, but my main group i played with doesnt play it anymore, so i dont either

[gloomy shuttle]

Nah, that's fair. Especially with how Fortnite has been for awhile. I wouldn't blame them

[gloomy shuttle]

I rarely buy original skins nowadays because I'm already content with what I own.

And with collabs, I only aim for ones I care about personally and that's it.

Collabs in Fortnite have always been a grab bag. You either get one(s) that's really exciting, neat, boring or just straight up bad (especially when it's the controversial picks Epic goes after).

[wild shale]

[gloomy shuttle]

Like I don't hate the original skins at all and enjoyed some of the designs they have (occasionally very fun too), but they've always been a mixed bag of cool and eh designs for awhile.

Like, on occasions I still vibe with Katt, Doughberman, Safety Guard Steve (one of my favs next to Katt), Shadow Blade Hope, Oscar, Keisha Cross, etc.

[gloomy shuttle]

Bayonetta would be really cool as a Fortnite skin tho. 🥹

But the only SEGA collab I would really love/want is Jet Set Radio with a Beat skin.

Otherwise, Sonic & Yakuza would be dope. I would love emotes and jam tracks in relation to those two as well.

[tall forge]

Nice made it to level 100

[ornate zinc]

Smh, y’all are greedy for xp

Rocket Racing, Fortnite Festival Battle, and Ballistic will be Shutting Down Too
https://fxtwitter.com/FortniteStatus/status/2036451164347109440

Fortnite Status (@FortniteStatus)

📰 Rocket Racing, Ballistic, and Festival Battle Stage Going Offline
We've built a lot of Fortnite modes, and in some cases we failed to build something awesome enough to attract and retain a large player base. We are going to shut these modes down on the schedules outlined below - we're grateful for everyone who played.

Rocket Racing

After two years of high-speed competition, Rocket Racing will leave Fortnite along with all UEFN islands built with Rocket Racing templates in October 2026. Starting next week, Rocket Racing Quests will no longer be available, and the current track creation template will be removed from UEFN. There are no further Ranked rewards planned for this season. Nothing changes with your Vehicle Locker and you can still use your customized cars in Fortnite.

For developers building car content, in April we’re adding car physics, hazards, and track-building tools (including the Track Spline tool and Speed Boost devices) to the base UEFN toolset. D…

That said, they’re laying off people when it the ceo fault to begin with

[charred axle]

#off-topic message

[wild shale]

welp.

pays the rock and other high profile actors to voice characters, fires 1000 people

[ornate zinc]

Oh yeah i see it now

[ornate zinc]

Pays billions to UEFN Slop

Aka 40% of all revenue

[tall forge]

That’s crazy with all the stuff

Also them finally realizing rocket racing is a failure

Along with ballistic and battle stage

Battle stage could’ve had potential but it was executed poorly

[hollow willow]

good bye rocket racing, been fun for over a year 🙁

[gloomy shuttle]

"Spending more by just throwing at our UEFN Creators hundreds if not thousands of dollars over our own employees!".

[ornate zinc]

Steal a brainrot makes 50k a day

[gloomy shuttle]

I know. 😔

[ornate zinc]

There also collabs and IPs stealing a bunch of the budget as well

[gloomy shuttle]

Either way, it's just everything that's costly to them is the issue.

And yeah.. the collabs are among them.

[fresh falcon]

Well dam

[ornate zinc]

Good news being no more exclusive RR cosmetics
Bad news being that RR is dead

[versed yacht]

What I'm going to play now that Rocket Racing is being removed

[gloomy shuttle]

They also shouldn't have made SO many modes either, because it's a risk especially if not many are gonna keep at them anyway.

It doesn't help knowing that Fortnite likely within the next chapter, they're just gonna jump right into the UEFN engine and will probably get worse from there.

[fresh falcon]

Either gonna remove getting the rank items next week?

Is that true then? boy i'm gonna be grinding on rr the before it's gone

[gloomy shuttle]

Ngl, I already am missing Chapter 6.

Chapter 7 has just been Epic being more blatant in how bad things are going.

[ornate zinc]

Nah it getting removed in October

[gloomy shuttle]

The weekly Quests re getting removed next week I saw

[fresh falcon]

Why so late for that one? Do they had that planned out?

[ornate zinc]

Probably because it has cosmetic attached to it

But they have no more rank items tied to it

[fresh falcon]

So you can't get any points for weeklies, but the ranked items are still available until October. That's so weird

[ornate zinc]

It weird to make new difficult and lengthy rank quest just to take it out for 2 weeks

[fresh falcon]

Yeah that doesn't make any sense

[ornate zinc]

That said they should probably give out the ranked rewards for free if they plan to take out the rank quests

[fresh falcon]

I always so much time playing this game mode. Having fun with it just for it to be pulled away from me

[ornate zinc]

The rocket racing twitter account is now taken down

[normal eagle]

guess i picked a good time to leave fortnite

i also love that instead of having UEFN creators take a pay cut they'd rather just fire 1000 people truly genius big brain plays from Timothy

[fresh falcon]

I got elite on the br mode

But I have to take a break from that mode. because got to do rank rocket racing before that goes away

[sand wraith]

Paying millions to UEFN brainrot map creators, dropping new collabs everyday and charge them overpriced but can't pay employees

[wild shale]

epic is like cooked cooked

fortnite is bleeding players, the metaverse isnt working, everyone is against them rn

their mobile app and pc app have both failed

Honestly, I dont know how much longer they will last as this point

[gloomy shuttle]

And you KNOW for a fact they're gonna depend on generative AI. 💀

Which like.. yeah it's over.

[wild shale]

its funny cause they specifically called out that none of the layoffs are due to ai

which i believe tbh

fortnite has been losing money for so long now

[fresh falcon]

Epic can't really go out of business because they are one of the main video game engines in the industry. But it proved the point that life service games are not doing well

[gloomy shuttle]

I just think part of it is because they keep dropping lots of money onto the UEFN Creators way too much.

But also the frequency in collabs are also hurting them on top of it.

[wild shale]

they totally can

[fresh falcon]

About half of the industry uses unreal engine

[wild shale]

we've had major engine companies go under before

honestly they could end up dropping out of gaming and becoming an engine and ai company

[gloomy shuttle]

Even if not, Tim Sweeney has been blatantly opened about his stance with Gen AI (in which he supports it..). So it's really not a good sign of things to come.

Like being against the idea of labeling games using AI cuz "it's the future and should be embraced" or whatever nonsense that man spews. 🙄

[wild shale]

that bubble will pop eventually tho

then what will epic have

[gloomy shuttle]

Nothing at that point, it'd be all on him and the higher ups for pushing it.

[wild shale]

very true

[gloomy shuttle]

Again, moments like these with Fortnite lately is making me miss Chapters 5 & 6.

Chapter 6 wasn't perfect and had some irritating bumps in the road. But at least I had my fun with friends and it wasn't always bad.

Chapter 5 I might not have been huge with, but at least it had some good parts within it even barring some weaker aspects.

I wasn't really there for the other chapters, so I can't relate unfortunately. I was mostly on Fall Guys before this for my F2P game experience.

[ornate zinc]

I actually finished getting elite on reload today

Now i gotta get unreal in BR

[granite valve]

I know this is off topic but

[fresh falcon]

I already got elite on reloaded a couple weeks ago

[granite valve]

They brought back extreme mode on fg

[fresh falcon]

I don't even understand why they didn't keep Chapter six rank mode progression for items

It makes me think they just made it last minute for shutting down RR

Even the start of this season, they didn't add a rank items for ballistics

[ornate zinc]

Probably because rank items were glitching

[fresh falcon]

Yeah, I still haven't got the pickaxe from getting elite on b r

But I got the for rocket racing, just fine

they're not gonna add that much items to reload rank items

Probably just only three

[ornate zinc]

Go in regular BR or try doing squads

[normal eagle]

god if this is how Q1 is panning out for epic id hate to see how the rest of the year goes

[hazy rune]

Rocket racing, ballistic, and festival battle stage are getting removed from fortnite is this true?

Player counts weren’t good

[normal eagle]

yea its true

[sharp mesa]

Everyone I’m gonna stream a private lobby on fall guys on my twitch: RealLippy. 🫡

Gonna hop on around 8, feel free to join, I had around 15 people on before but I believe we can get a full lobby. I usually run a lot of different games allowing the chat join in. If today goes well I’ll keep running this every week🫶🏽

Hopefully will see some of you there🥷

[hazy rune]

I wouldn’t be surprised if they removed lego fortnite brick life

I never played it at all and im not really interested in that

I also think party royale is unnecessary

We should only have gamemodes that are constantly updated not games like rocket racing that are just abandoned

[sweet crag]

i got a virus just resetet my pc was stresful

[normal eagle]

i wonder what mode might be next

[ornate zinc]

That getting funded by lego

[normal eagle]

yea i dont see the lego modes going away

[tall forge]

It’s crazy this is just actually turning out to be the worst Fortnite season

[normal eagle]

heck id say chapter cuz people were getting fed up by the end of last season

[tall forge]

I liked last season a lot at the start but then it got stale

[normal eagle]

i just wonder how they're gonna try and win people back

[tall forge]

We understand your feedback but there’s so much more this pass we’re cooking up that we’re excited for you to see

[tall forge]

It’s just depressing to look at twitter rn

[ornate zinc]

Get rid of Tim that for sure

[normal eagle]

that'd help, but would that actually happen? personally i dont think so

[ornate zinc]

A bunch of backlash, and death threats (not supporting that btw)

[normal eagle]

yea that 2nd thing helps absolutely nothing

[ornate zinc]

What funnier is that they fired a bunch of seniors

So like they’re literally ruining their own game

Literally people who worked on fortnite for years now

Fired, and they expect the game to continue in the same quality

And after backlash, are now offered 4 months of base pays for them

Like if you offer that to begin with, why didn’t you do something else to make sure that didn’t happen to begin with

You know like UEFN

[normal eagle]

so what your saying is expect the already fairly low quality to get lower

[ornate zinc]

Yeah basically

They literally fired a bunch of seniors and people who did a lot of works

They literally fired the guy that had to come in during winter break to fix a bug 💀

[normal eagle]

good lord its really great that im taking a break then

real quick, does anyone know when tomodachi life comes out?

[ornate zinc]

The 16th

Of April

[normal eagle]

omg i might actually be able to get it depending on when i start work

[ornate zinc]

I mean just avoid twitter a bit when it releases till you get paid

[normal eagle]

i mean im not too concerned for spoilers for tomodachi life

[tall forge]

Yes you are

[ornate zinc]

Yeah but like seeing funny clips can ruin seeing it ingame for the first time

Anyway glad this starts next week

[ornate zinc]

Y’all wanna hear some good news about a company

Sora AI is shutting down

[lapis arch]

FINALLY SOME GOOD NEWS

[thorny quartz]

epic games paid almost $720m to uefn creators yet claim they don't have enough money to pay their employees???

[gloomy shuttle]

What makes this funnier is that Disney spent a billion on this and now it backfired on them.

[gloomy shuttle]

Unfortunately, I can't really eat much spicy stuff and I rarely eat out anymore.

Just a once a month or on occasions, and most of time I just go eat at a local Taco Shop for my Bean & Cheese Burrito fix. lmao

Honestly, at this point.. I think I'm just not gonna get the Crew.

I bought the Battle Pass, don't even wanna get the Crew after then laying off their devs like this.

change that 'couple of decades' to '14 months from now'

[gloomy shuttle]

Exactly.

[tall forge]

There’s a v bucks mission at least

[normal eagle]

apparently nickeh30 is defending tim for doing his best despite the layoffs 🗿

[ornate zinc]

Nickeh30 has alway been like this

[normal eagle]

i know but its genuinely crazy how tone deaf he is 💀

like... if he thinks the games not great now. id hate to see what he thinks once we start feeling the impact of the 1000 employees being let go twoards the end of the season

but i guess i get why we wont actually say anything constructive. hes seriously scared of making epic mad and losing his creator privliges

[ornate zinc]

Pretty sure he just lost a bunch of his creator points anyway

[normal eagle]

outlast trials got an update today and good lord man they are so deranged [the devs] 😭

[hazy rune]

The skins are great but now that im growing up i got to realize its not worth spending all this money.

I need to start focusing on buying games only and little to no micro transactions

I wouldn’t be surprised if fall guys went offline tbh in the next few years if they fortnite thing doesn’t work out

As im aware we haven’t gotten a single update in a while.

[versed yacht]

After Epic tripled the income Content Creators make with their code, he's going to defend Epic at all costs I suppose

[limpid reef]

sorry- layoffs?

i think i saw this when i woke up and didnt process it, we got new layoffs?

damn, i wonder where all the money went

[normal eagle]

yea epic layed off 1000 employees and are shutting down rocket racing, ballistic & festival battle stage

[gloomy shuttle]

And this is why collaborations based around content creators and celebrities are just a bad idea in the long run.

[gloomy shuttle]

I was almost gonna get The Crew, but after the news. I just decided to just say no. I have 9,500 V-Bucks.

I might as well as just buy the Battle Pass and then the OG Pass with my V-Bucks.

And buy whatever items show up in the shop.

I'm spending the $60 I bought for more games (especially ones that go on sale).

Got Nier Automata for example and likely gonna play that through my Switch 2 instead of 1.

[limpid reef]

goddamn okay

[limpid reef]

arent there, like. mr beast skins? lmao those probably arent being rerun

[gloomy shuttle]

Yes, but they haven't reran in awhile.

But I just never liked collabs that are just being the celeb or content creator. Especially since most or some I barely know enough or care.

[limpid reef]

oh its definitely a weird idea

i get the idea because many of these people have a brand but not something to attach to that brand other than their own face

but ah, yes, its what ive always wanted to play as, real ass human man jimmy donaldson

[gloomy shuttle]

The only partial exception is just the fictional ones.

Like Hatsune Miku and the Gorillaz (the latter while being an actual band, mostly uses fictional characters within their universe).

[limpid reef]

yeah thats a. lot cleaner

[gloomy shuttle]

It's why I mainly just prefer collaborations that are animation or video games most of the time.

But even if they aren't perfect sometimes especially with creators or whatnot depending on the IP(s) in question. :/

[gloomy shuttle]

Also yeah, don't be surprised if within the next couple months.. their push on generative AI gets more clearer. -_-

[limpid reef]

oh, right, that

[gloomy shuttle]

Because they layed off a LOT of their major staff.

Almost similar to Mediatonic when they we're layed off.

They layed off the character designer for Jonesy even and the guy who was currently writing the Chapter 7 storyline. 💀

[limpid reef]

lmao???

so this wasnt even planned for a long time? because why would you hire someone just to throw them out halfway in

i mean i suppose theyve already got the storyline and dont need them anymore

[gloomy shuttle]

That's why I'm still gonna wait out before truly abandoning the ship. But I certainly ain't spending V-Bucks no more.

The lay-offs was the final straw.

Not even gonna bother to touch Rocket League either.

[charred axle]

This was Legit a Sudden Layoff. The Employees Knew the Exact Same Time as We Did

[sand wraith]

Thsts a good thing, Red Barrels are insane folks

Outlast Trials is a banger

[gloomy shuttle]

Again, I genuinely believe the lay-offs is mostly just so they can push into the generative AI.

[limpid reef]

the hell? what did they dump $3b into to suddenly need to drop 1000 people?

[limpid reef]

how big is their staff force, even...?

[gloomy shuttle]

The bubble is hopefully gonna burst for real. 🙏 ✨

[sand wraith]

More than enough for a multi billionaire company to pay all employees

But more money for brainrot creators

[limpid reef]

mostly wondering what the scope of the layoff is

[gloomy shuttle]

Because they rather want UEFN to be their future when it never should have.

[limpid reef]

because my knee jerk reaction is that 1000 is at least a third of their company but i dont have anything to back that up

[gloomy shuttle]

It's been that mindset for a long time to this CEO and it's frustrating.

This was why I wasn't looking forward to Chapter 7.

[sand wraith]

Look to what has happened with their metaverse
Soon will be UEFN

[gloomy shuttle]

Yeah, they literally said they want to make Battle Royale UEFN around the time Chapter 5 was going, but delays kept happening to it as a result

[sand wraith]

https://tenor.com/view/john-roblox-laugh-burst-out-laughing-lol-laughing-gif-1680957198344187785

More money to throw

[gloomy shuttle]

It's genuinely absurd

UEFN has always just been a bad idea.

[gloomy shuttle]

If there's one thing Epic's best at.. it's them shoving or forcing the idea of Creative and harming games in the process.

[sand wraith]

Fall Guys FN is next to be shut down and MT Will be laid off

[gloomy shuttle]

Yeah, I don't doubt it.

The game's already a ghost town. 🥲

I haven't touched Fall Guys since October of last year btw

[sand wraith]

I have seen they have not touched the game for over 8 months only to announce they changing the showbucks bundles like from FN

[tall forge]

I definitely won’t be buying v bucks probably like ever now but idk if I can just abandon ship

I’ve been playing for so long

[ornate zinc]

About to do bot lobbies to gain xp

Anyone wanna join me

[tall forge]

That’s what I was doing last night

[gloomy shuttle]

Sure

[tall forge]

Sure why not

[gloomy shuttle]

I need the help

[tall forge]

Glad I have more v bucks than I would probably ever need now

[gloomy shuttle]

I only have 9,500. But I'm probably gonna spend all of it going into the remainder of Chapter 7.

Chapter 8 is my jumping off point at the earliest tbh.

[turbid sun]

I mean that's unfortunate and all but the next crew pack skin looks fire and the passes are straight heat

So lwk they can take another $10 of my money for crew

[gloomy shuttle]

I would've, but at this rate.. I just can't.

[ornate zinc]

Boycotting isn’t really a option for epic games tbh

[tall forge]

Just crazy how much of the game just 180 in such a short amount of time

[gloomy shuttle]

Oh I know, I just mean with Fortnite

That ship with Fall Guys has already sailed long ago

[lapis arch]

I miss my 2022

Oh well im now an helldiver i guess

[gloomy shuttle]

Actually hold up a bit

[tall forge]

I haven’t changed skins in awhile

[gloomy shuttle]

I forgot I got the new sidekick

[tall forge]

I still haven’t decided if I wanted red and white or red and a lighter red with black horns

[ornate zinc]

I haven’t use any of the customizable pets in a pass tbh

[gloomy shuttle]

I went for Blue cuz it's the closest I can vibe with in the main colors

Couldn't see the others work.

[tall forge]

I don’t think I’ve even seen you with a pet at all

[wild shale]

itd be cool if it had gyro aiming

[tall forge]

This bot really trolled me when I had 1s left to revive myself by just mowing me down

[gloomy shuttle]

I think the one thing I will likely buy this week in Fortnite is just that new Daffy Duck emote

Because it look goofy

[ornate zinc]

Lmao the devs

They definitely put this in for today

A Punk guy, and the director’s cut pickaxe

[gloomy shuttle]

Also thought I'd be Steve cuz I haven't used this guy in awhile

He's one of my favorites from Chapter 5

I was happy when he was a skin picked from the survey back then.

[wild shale]

how many employees overall did epic have before the layoffs?

[ornate zinc]

Around 5000

[gloomy shuttle]

Level 83 so far

Soon I'll get the Bugs set

[charred axle]

UEFN AI Slop, Basically

[charred axle]

Joy-Con 2Mouse Aiming As Well

[limpid reef]

to the point where they dumped 20% of their workforce?

i thought that was what the price hikes were intended to cover!

[charred axle]

It was Their Last Ditch Effort, Yeah

[limpid reef]

christ

i wonder. where all the money went!

figured it was a variety of things, i wanna say there was reason to suspect they lost a lot of their playerbase compared to 2024 or some such

thank you epic games .

"steal the brainrot has a larger install base than our main mode? we should put money into that!" not realizing they make basically no profit on that comparatively

[tall forge]

I killed more than a quarter of the lobby

[ornate zinc]

I killed around 1/3

[tall forge]

We had like 50+ kills

[ornate zinc]

Yeah

[gloomy shuttle]

Uh, I guess I'm gonna call it for now.

Thanks for the games tho.

[ornate zinc]

Thanks for the games knuckles

[gloomy shuttle]

No problem

[gloomy shuttle]

I'm happy at least a Switch 2 version is potentially coming now

Hopefully it can run better than on the PS4 version tho.

[ornate zinc]

Eh oh well, guess i’ll sit this one out

Gonna eat soup

Can’t wait for next month k pop demon hunter mcdonald meal that i can stop eating soup

[tall forge]

Soup!

[gloomy shuttle]

I would do more, but it's getting late for me and the news with Fortnite today has kinda burned me out to wanna keep at it tonight.

[ornate zinc]

I’m ready to stop eating it

[tall forge]

I should redo the animation of it to be a fade in instead of a quick snap

[charred axle]

There was Also the Lawsuits and the Offer with Google to Put Fortnite on the Google Play Store Worldwide, Which Both Costed Hundreds of Millions

[limpid reef]

yeah

[tall forge]

Dang not getting as much xp as I was last night

I got like 2 levels a match

[ornate zinc]

Not as many quests tbf

Also doesn’t help that we’re doing the same teams

There's No Filter At All

[ornate zinc]

Likely one of the reasons they don’t want screenshots

Or Video Captures

[wild shale]

so they dont want people sharing videos of the game?

the main way the 3ds game got popular

Honestly I’m surprised the QR system wasn’t bring back

[wild shale]

i can somewhat understand the whole sharing miis restriction

but removing the easy way for people to share the game to others is wild

[wild shale]

was there a filter in animal crossing, or pokopia

Ehh, I'm good. Gonna wait tomorrow and buy the Daffy Duck emote.

[normal eagle]

[unreal ibex]

I haven’t played outlast trials in months, I still have momma goose plush

[unreal ibex]

Its so good but their kill is gnarly

I legit forgot the nintendo alarm clock existed

[charred axle]

I Didn't, Considering I Wake Up to It Every Day

[tall forge]

Same

[tall forge]

The moba that I play one of my favorite hero’s got a skin that I like way more than is original ( new first, default second )

But this one is still probably my most favorite

[ornate zinc]

Oooo that a silly creature

[charred axle]

Got Mario Wonder S2E for $13

[gloomy shuttle]

Bird & Fox

[ornate zinc]

I’m gonna need a duo for a emoticon and spray real quick

[tall forge]

Sure

[ornate zinc]

Also i’m at level 159

[tall forge]

No you aren’t

One sec

[ornate zinc]

Ah

Well i hope they give us the the ice king style from the OG preview

[tall forge]

Can I get it since I have OG ice king?

[ornate zinc]

no

[tall forge]

[ornate zinc]

I like this style more

[tall forge]

Bruh

Well a match got wasted

[ornate zinc]

I got kicked out to the lobby what 💀

[tall forge]

Same

[ornate zinc]

Invite me instead

[tall forge]

Won’t let me

Only lets me request to join

[ornate zinc]

I’ll restart real quick

Seem like the game detected someone hacking the lobby or something

Just camp somewhere

Oh wait i know what to do

[tall forge]

Ocean camp ok lol

[ornate zinc]

Slurp has fishing in it

Basically my go to strat in regular cups

[tall forge]

Looks pretty similar to the chapter 2 island

[ornate zinc]

You have no eyes lol

[tall forge]

Who need eyes

[ornate zinc]

Well we’re done

[tall forge]

Already

[ornate zinc]

We just needed 8 points

[tall forge]

Bruh well that was very fast

[ornate zinc]

So daffy or lola

[tall forge]

Like which one?

[ornate zinc]

Ye

[tall forge]

Hmmm

Daffy

I slightly wanna get the skins

[ornate zinc]

You have like 30,000 vbucks

[tall forge]

How did I die before you you were in it first

24 points is kinda crazy

We’re probably gonna get storm sickness

[ornate zinc]

Eh

We got 30 points lmao

[tall forge]

Right before we died I got the warning

[ornate zinc]

Anyway daffy or lola

[tall forge]

Daffy

[ornate zinc]

Any specific reason, or just bird

[tall forge]

Bird

[ornate zinc]

Make senses, i would choose the same option honestly

Space Jam Lola is boring as hell

[tall forge]

Wherever I think of space jam I think of space jam dvd

[ornate zinc]

I guess

[tall forge]

https://youtu.be/DWPJ25JSTH4?si=9_7DPLUlz5q4W3u3

[ornate zinc]

This is a math problem

[tall forge]

Yesin’t

[ornate zinc]

Anyway hoping we get a furry bunny skin in the shop

[tall forge]

Lola

[ornate zinc]

Eh a fortnite original skin

[tall forge]

Surprised we haven’t yet

[ornate zinc]

We kinda do

[tall forge]

Nighthare or whatever it’s called

[ornate zinc]

Bun Bun

[tall forge]

Oh yeah that one

[ornate zinc]

The rest of them are just human wearing costumes

[lapis arch]

https://youtu.be/QOK3-sdzVi8

Seems like faaast penguin is adding some sort of peak-like mode?

[gloomy shuttle]

I just saw that and I'm intrigued.

[gloomy shuttle]

Doubt that's gonna happen anyway.

[limpid reef]

dude did they like outsource the new tomodachi life or something? this customization is way too good for nintendo

wouldnt even expect all this from an indie game

[wild shale]

i have no idea who makes them

[limpid reef]

this is like uncanny lmao

[wild shale]

i assume its a small newerish team

[limpid reef]

actually i do wonder who the dev team is

jokes aside i do wonder if its like a different team from normal

[wild shale]

its probably EDP4 i think

which did ring fit, labo and maybe 1-2 switch

[charred axle]

EPD 7 Made Tomodachi Collection and Tomodachi Life, so They Most Likely Made Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream too

[ornate zinc]

I mean Tomodachi isn’t really necessary complicated, most of it is just RNG and the controls are basic and easy to use, so they can add a lot, without making it too difficult for bugs and other stuff

Or i least i think so

[wild shale]

thatd make sense too

but then who is making rhthym heaven

[charred axle]

Maybe They Split Themselves into 2, 3D Mario and Bananza Style?

[wild shale]

[ornate zinc]

Pikmin bosses be like

[tall forge]

The blue wraith

Second picture is phase 2 where they go googley eyes cause they’re screwed

[ornate zinc]

Indeed

Also the layoffs will likely affect chapter 8

[wild shale]

im not going to see the mario movie, but they really shouldnt have revealed that

[charred axle]

Disney’s Hercules Bundle, including three Outfits, three Backblings, three Pickaxes, two Emotes, and one/two Jam Track(s).

vxTwitter / fixvx · Mar 26, 2026, 1:32 PM

i guess that also explains the silence in Jam Tracks this week beyond the obvious.

I'll probably buy the Jam Tracks at least, maybe Herc.

[wild shale]

every time someone does the smash bros movie concept they always show movie sonic

like if sonic was in a smash movie, itd be his game design or an illumination/nintendo styled design

same with link, it wouldnt be the upcoming live action one

[charred axle]

I Feel Like It'd still be Ben Schwartz tho

[wild shale]

or another celeb / big voice actor

altho roger would be fine too, cause usually the voice issues are the director they have atm

especially if it was just a minor role theyd just use roger

but i dont think any 3rd parties would appear in a smash movie tbh

even some characters that have any sort of 3rd partyness

[gloomy shuttle]

I'mma be real, but.. they're giving away too much about the movie. ._.

[charred axle]

I've Heard It Also Has to Do with the Fact that He's Doing a Throat Voice, which Sorta Makes Him Sound Like an Old Man Doing a Youngster Impression

[gloomy shuttle]

Watch it be Mike West

That or just a notable voice actor

[wild shale]

true, but sonic is also older now

idk why they kept saying he was a teenage despite the series clearly taking place in real time

so hes actually 45

[charred axle]

I Feel Like Maybe One or Two Might Appear, but Moreso as a Cameo or Something

[charred axle]

bro is immortal

[wild shale]

mega man and pacman are the easy ones

dont have movies, nor recognised voices

and they work in animation very well

[charred axle]

Wouldn't be Surprised if Fox was the Tails of the Mario Cinematic Universe tbh

But Yeah, that Ben Schwartz Comment was About Sonic Being in a Hypothetical Smash Movie

[wild shale]

fox watches his girlfriend sacrifice herself?

[ornate zinc]

That wouldn’t work lmao

[charred axle]

Plus, Mega Man had a Lot of Nintendo Involvement Back in the Day

[wild shale]

i have a feeling fox will be "hey we need to get somewhere, i know a guy" and then he flies them somewhere

[charred axle]

yeah, turns out that krystal was a plant all along. who knew?

[charred axle]

I Meant Voice Acting Wise

[gloomy shuttle]

Essentially they added Miyamoto's babies in the movie.

[charred axle]

Yeah, That's Fair. This Sorta Feels More Like a Post Release Reveal tbh

[wild shale]

i know what the post credit scene will be

itll be pikachu

[gloomy shuttle]

Nah, I still think it'll be Wario.

Just to set up a "Super Mario Land Movie"

[ornate zinc]

The pizza truck from toy story is also coming

[gloomy shuttle]

Honestly, after this week.. I'm just not really happy with Fortnite right now. I would've gotten the Crew, but just can't in good faith after that.

I know in hindsight that's not the best if wanting to save up for anything within the future for this game or whatnot..

But the 9,500 I currently have now is all I'm locking at knowing it'll probably fall off worse. Just gonna spend it off with whatever interests me and just be it.

[ornate zinc]

They’re discussing plans for the future and about the lay offs today

[gloomy shuttle]

I bet you they're gonna push this game into using generative AI tools into the next few months. 🫩

They'll say they won't or that it didn't contribute the layoffs, but you know they will one day.

We're talking about the same guy running the studio that hated the idea of Games using GenAI needing to have a label in their storefront.

Others studios are pushing for it.

Unless there was some miracle that brings the people they fired back, I doubt it.

[ornate zinc]

We have to keep pushing about the layoffs

Trust me, negative feedback and a negative reputation has a effect on big companies

[gloomy shuttle]

Well hey, bullying them for their actions can work sometimes

Who knows, if they do.. cool.

It's not like they won't do it again in the future anyway if it becomes too dire.

[ornate zinc]

Big creators are being bullied for defending laying off 1,000 people

[gloomy shuttle]

Look, I dunno. Just haven't been in a good mood with Fortnite. Sorry that I'm not as excited about the truck from Toy Story being a thing. 😮‍💨

[ornate zinc]

I wouldn’t worry about that, the entire vibe is a ghost town

[gloomy shuttle]

Fair enough.

If things do turn around though, I still wouldn't plan to buy more V-Bucks for a good while anyway.

I'm still gonna play Fortnite into this season at least. I bought the Battle Pass mainly to get Bugs Bunny. But I dunno, it's just a lot to comprehend.

https://vxtwitter.com/Loolo_WRLD/status/2037207949911716151

Loolo | Fortnite Leaks (@Loolo_WRLD)

Ted Timmins was not affected by the layoffs.

vxTwitter / fixvx · Mar 26, 2026, 4:39 PM

Well, we know one of the people who didn't get effected.

[ornate zinc]

I don’t know how they managed to make the “best” quoted by employees, just to immediately laid off their workers automatically making this one of the worst season

[gloomy shuttle]

Again, I miss Chapter 6 as flawed as it was. 😔

The Star Wars season sucked, but the rest ranged from alright to just eh.

They look fine, I guess.

[tall forge]

That’s weird

[gloomy shuttle]

They're also adding Hercules music too.

I might buy one of the Jam Tracks for it at least.

[normal eagle]

halfway there for Vittorio

[fresh falcon]

I'm currently champion in br

[tall forge]

No you aren’t

[fresh falcon]

It's not that hard to get into champion in br

[tall forge]

Yes

[fresh falcon]

It takes a lot of time and camping,

[gloomy shuttle]

So far, I'm at Level 89

[sonic ferry]

What happened to Kingdom Hearts is that not a thing in the books anymore 😭

[hazy rune]

Impressive im at like level 30

im sick (i mean i have a sore throat so bad it hurts to swallow or talk.) it’s getting better atleast for now. i could be a higher level but im also focusing on beating some of the games i need to on steam.

It’s been like 3 times I recovered from being sick and then i get sick again this past week or two

[tall forge]

Babysitting for about an hour

[tall forge]

Hour goes by fast when she’s allowed tv time lol

[gloomy shuttle]

30 minutes til the Looney drops

[tall forge]

Debating if I want them or not

[turbid sun]

woah woah woah relax with the Star wars hate

[ornate zinc]

Ooooo i wanted this pickaxe

[turbid sun]

I mean it looks cool but I know I'd never use it lol

[tall forge]

Got home

[tall forge]

Oooh that looks nice

3,200 isn’t too bad actually for the bundle for daffy and Lola

[gloomy shuttle]

I love this emote

[gloomy shuttle]

As much as I would love to buy Daffy, I think I'm good with Bugs.

So I only went for the "Quacking Up" emote because much like the Scooby Gang Run, I just kinda think it's a funny traversal

[tall forge]

I almost have enough v bucks to buy it and be at 30k still

[gloomy shuttle]

I don't got the Founders Pack, so it really means nothing for me anyway.

I don't plan to buy more V-Bucks for a good long while given the lay-offs kinda turned me away to wanna get more.

I would buy Daffy, but I'm in no rush.

[tall forge]

Yes you are

[tall forge]

[tall forge]

Does bot lobby’s not count for that pickaxe?

[ornate zinc]

Not sure, but better safe than sorry to do it in a public lobby

[tall forge]

That’s gonna be challenging

[ornate zinc]

I mean I’m technically done with the pass for now

Only 30 levels for the super styles really

[tall forge]

Me currently level 118

[ornate zinc]

That means my creative XP can be saved for OG for next week

[tall forge]

Guess I can random queue squads and hope to win

[ornate zinc]

I’ll join

[tall forge]

Yeah I tried it in a bot lobby and it didn’t count

[tall forge]

Alright give me a min

[ornate zinc]

It not being granted until monday

[tall forge]

Oh

[ornate zinc]

I’m trying to get epic support to gives us the ice king style used on the front of OG

[tall forge]

Cool well the match I did play I died in the first battle we had god rebooted at a different spot and died again since there was no loot nearby

[ornate zinc]

Bleh, next chapter is gonna be our chapter 4

Then chapter 5 again

[versed yacht]

Are the tournaments in the Compete tab really hard?

The ones that have skins as a reward caught my attention

[tall forge]

I keep getting assist

Came back alive and got the last kill

[ornate zinc]

Well, we did it

[tall forge]

Yup

[ornate zinc]

We should probably try again on Saturday

Better safe etc etc
