Multiple other users said they were all for getting their hands on the bundle until it hit the shop.Once they heard the new sound, however, they were quickly dissuaded from purchasing.

The sentiment around Epic andFortniteis that they are always shy of perfection, which creates little moments of disappointment for fans that could ultimately lead to them walking away from the game altogether. By fixing little things, such as the pacing of a song, they can create a community of fans who not only feel as though they are being heard but appreciated as well. In taking a slower approach to not only songs but also planning launches and events, Epic could truly turnFortniteinto a game no one has ever seen before.
