While the scope of layoffs has stunned employees, industry analysts have told IGN that cost-reduction within Epic Games was inevitable amid growing external pressures and costly industry battles.

That original version still exists - it’s called Save the World and iirc they recently revamped it and made it free for everyone (it used to be a standalone purchase).
Last time I played it I didn’t find it all that engaging, so it’s hardly surprising they stuck with BR as the lead mode once it took off. I guess my point is this: they didn’t ‘throw out’ StW, it just got eclipsed by a far more popular mode. Can’t really blame them for backing a winner.
Oh wow, I might give it another shot…
Oh wait, it’s on epic store, fuck knows if it has linux support, definitely has spyware, if I didn’t interface with it before I sure as fuck won’t interface with it now.
I’m not getting the impression you genuinely want to hop back in, but in case you didn’t know about it, the Heroic games launcher is FOSS, cross platform, and can serve GoG, EGS and Amazon games.
I never use it for EGS because I don’t have an epic account, but it’s been wonderful for my GoG library on Fedora.
E: totally spaced on this, fortnite isn’t playable on PC outside of windows.
I don’t know about Save the World, but the other modes of Fortnite are barred by anti-cheat on Linux, no matter how you launch it.
you know what, I totally spaced on that. this is very likely the case for save the world as well, I’m not aware if anyone who’s played that on Linux.
Few ppl did
shame only in private server or with some kind of kernel patch for the live version
i really liked stw until they said no more content updates and stopped developing the story :(
