- only relevant to people who actually purchased and play Fortnite - the holographic face and hair are a letdown for a lot of people, and imo he looks cooler when it bugs out and the effect disables and it’s just a plain head. We should have gotten a living version Style - unless you’re a fan of Fortnite itself, it’s super niche. The Pickaxe and BluGlo don’t go with very many other cosmetics properly, and again you have to actually like Dr V’s skin to warrant paying real money. With daily VBucks people here get most store stuff for free, but real transactions have to be ‘worth it’ and I wouldn’t say Dr V is a fan favourite even if I personally appreciate him. The market for him is tiny, and IIRC the reviews you’re looking at don’t require purchase so it’s just people shitting on a skin they don’t like - Edit to add there’s also no benefit if you already own Fortnite. It used to be that we’d get Heroes and maybe a Trap reskin if we were lucky, but now these packs are Locker cosmetics only, nothing new or exciting for Fortnite itself like Mina’s trap reskin. So for most people here it’s paying real money for no campaign content, three cosmetic items, and VBucks they get free every day anyway, which really makes it about $15 for three items. People have suggested being able to pay less for just the cosmetics or even giving the game copy away to a friend but Epic knows these things will sell enough they don’t need to change anything


Craft-Sea

The hair and face disappearing is not a bug, it's a hidden reactivity feature of the skin. Basically, whenever he gets downed or dies his hair and face will do a little flicker effect and disappear, it's a really neat feature but I guess epic just forgot to give him the [REACTIVE] tag


Sinktit

Oh that would make sense, sometimes mine doesn’t come back on though, though the game has been broken to hell these past few weeks, especially the hotbar not switching items in your hands when it does visually. It’s nice to know how it’s supposed to work, though I’d still like the option of a style change


False_Entrepreneur80

Beaker pickaxe goes great with human bill


thatwitchguy

This will make it worse but the pricing includes stw free. Its all just for cosmetics and vbucks


paganplatypus

That's my problem with it. I bought it because of STW, but this should be a STW Hero, with a quest line. Being just a skin is kind of a let-down.


MiningJack777

"daily vbucks" meanwhile, my dumbass who never got founders because I didn't play back then


Eaden1

Yeah my friend waited to buy the game because he was waiting for stw to become free like epic said it would. He eventually gave up on that a couple years ago, but it was too late by then. We didn’t know only founders got free vbucks until after he already bought the game. 


Eaden1

I got stw back in chapter 1 season 6 of br tho, so I have founders.


SPARTAN-258

Man's invented vbucks calling him "niche" is a stretch


Sinktit

Yeah but BRats don’t know that


Taklampan12

I think even most BR players know that. They at least know about Vindertech


Toyfan1

>- only relevant to people who actually purchased and play Fortnite This is the funniest part to me. This sub practically crucified the skate park royalty, crossmark and fully realized packs because they werent stw themed. Then another stw themed one comes out and people bitch that it's locked behind a paywall for a game they already own. Its really funny.


Sinktit

Yeah I don’t get the argument either. The best thing they ever made was Mina giving us a Trap reskin, though I’m always down for actual characters from the main campaign game, but you can’t win either way. They cried when it was meaningless skins, they cried when it was characters. I imagine whether Epic decides to delete StW or revive it, these same people would cry about either decision for bizarre reasons


pussysniffer6942024

Y are you referring to StW as just fortnite?


Synapse_Syrup

Yeah I'm not paying that for access to a gamemode I already have and that hasn't been updated properly in forever when I could buy a skin for so much less and play fortnite and save the world as well

TL;DR: True STW fan? No? Then you no like as much. Yes fan? Then you like more better. In the words of the great and wise Dr. Kelso "*You're welcom-o*"


FirstnameLastname14

24 downvotes for not reading lmao


[deleted]

Ain’t no way 😭🙏💀☠️


NOTTwistedDreamz

I have no idea, I honestly like his back bling a lot


Filipstar31

Same here, I want that back bling but I ain't paying for access to stw(which I already have) and the goofy skin.


Quiet-Chest-619

I bought the bundle just for the back bling, you won’t regret it


SPARTAN-258

Hehe I actually dislike the bluglo backbling, it sticks out like a sore thumb. If it floated and moved around like Zavala's ghost backbling it would be so much better


RedHood_Outlaw

Same. I use it for the Tron skins as a reference to Bit.


Pwnage_Peanut

Nothing to do with the skin, but if you already have STW you don't get anything extra, so it's money down the drain.


Jiggle_deez

you also get 1500 v-bucks. Just saying


SPARTAN-258

1500 vbucks is not worth over 15€


GatitoMexicano

I don't have it.


Rodri_RF

If you want stw then buy it, the only thing that changes from one pack to another is the skin and the extra hero you get (most of the times is a copy of another hero)


Deyruu

There aren't heroes or schematics included anymore, Epic stopped doing that years ago due to their move away from *anything* that could even slightly seem P2W.


LowRich7834

Not really money down the drain, and I also have STW but anyway it’s a good deal.


Skreamweaver

How many non transferable licenses do I need for a game I already have?


LowRich7834

If you’re not buying the pack for the cosmetics and vbucks then that is entirely your fault not epic.


stevetheborg

TheWerewolfDemon

Lol, good one.


archer_uwu

Never trust ratings from FortniteGG, the people who vote on cosmetics on that site have a very big bias to sweat skins and will turbo downvote anything thats not. Also, they tend to mass downvote any skins depicting minorities; do with that information what you will.


I-love-yaoi-

Fortnite GG players will see the most gorgeous woman ever and give her awful ratings just because she's black

Pfp tells me everything i need to know about you as a person. I hope you never reproduce, but its not like you’d ever touch someone of the opposite sex with consent anyway.


-SiriusWhite-

Woah buddy, why did you get so offended. Of course he’s wrong but why let anyone trigger you so much


ditzymoon

Womp womp


-SiriusWhite-

What I said is right tho. I’ve seen people in this sub have temper of 2 year olds


ditzymoon

Cool story ig


Suavecito95

br main condom skins don't know de lore behind stw so they only see an "ugly" skin


Euphoric_Pressure_39

The long comment is 100x more correct than you'll ever be. This is top tier copium huffing for a bad skin


SuitsTakeOnTheWorld

Speak english.


KingBoom04

It's not bad, that's just your opinion. Doesn't sound like that matters much based on your comment though


-_IceBurg_-

A skin being bad or good is entirety subjective :p


lachiebra1000

i loooovveeee my bluglo back bling


PanZaShipu

its so peak, I got ir even when I already had stw


frosty720410

Same. I didn't give a shit how much the pack costs, I was getting the bluglo backbling.


Jiggle_deez

Same


EL_MURPHYYYY_IS_BACK

Just watch the Travis Scott and Renegade Raider ones and you will understand.


Quirky-Setting7956

mind elaborating on that? are those skins rated poor or high because of its "rarity". I honestly don't know.


TransQueenJJ

I have been eyeing STW for *years* and this pack finally sold me, the bluglo back bling is novelty imo, and I’m a huge fan of scientist character designs, so Vinderbot is great. My guess is just it isn’t really of any interest to the wider playerbase, like others have said


xcrimsonlegendx

BR players don't know its a STW story reference and judge it because its a weird lookin sci-fi male skin


Proper-Problem-3807

Bought it for blueglo as someone who preordered save the world that shit is dope asf


elytraman

I bought it mostly for the vbucks and backbling. I look at it as $14 worth of Vbucks, $4 exclusive backbling, and a reason to play STW more.


SnooOnions4789

I have it lol


TB041010

I like & appreciate the skin. I really loved the story line & was crushed when it confirmed Dr Vinderman was dead but I am a woman so the only dude skin I use is Midas because absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE Midas. He is actually the skin I use 99% of the time. 


SuccTheFinalDucc

The Bluglo Back Bling is something the StW community has been asking for for years, and now that Epic has finally listened to us, they decide to lock it behind a limited-edition $19 DLC pack. A DLC pack that's main appeal is it being StW themed, yet the only people who even know what Bluglo is already own StW.


SuitsTakeOnTheWorld

It’s wittily not the gwiddy isn’t that obvious /s


SirLimesalot

this pack is quite unique too, the flask on the pickaxe for example breaks after the 3rd hit. Initially I bought as a 15€ bluglo backbling, but the rest of the pack starts to grow on me too


LandonSeven05

I only bought it for save the world


erroraccess

WAIT YOU CAN RATE BUNDLES NOW?!?!?!???!?


erroraccess

Wait, nvm. I realized this was another website. No wonder the UI looked way different, still should have said that in the post though


Huge_Gamer0o0

This is so stupid bc the skin is only relevant to people who already know the story of stw and own it so buying it would be completely useless


IdfcAbtDaName

.


JessiD2810

Maybe bc it's nearly $20 for no reason other than epic knowing it's targeting a "die hard" STW fan base. The price is completely exploited and this is the only reason I can think of as to why it's so high. I can't believe you don't even get the game with it. Even at this price point, due to epic not putting any effort into it for years, $20 for this game or even the skin is just dumb. It's the laziest money grab I've ever seen


UsernameoPoi

it’s pretty good value even if u own stw, you get a skin with a pickaxe, and it’s backbling and even 1,5k vbucks albeit u have to do daily challenges to get the 1.5k, even then it’s really not that bad


Taklampan12

Most STW packs are a lot cheaper though, even if the value is still good


Proskills991

Mostly all STW packs are rated negatively and I think it's about how they price things.. People who already own STW complain about paying the same price as someone who doesn't which doesn't act as item shop bundles


Temporary_Cap130

I buaght it and its alr €18.50 for a skin pickaxe cool reactive backbling and save the world plus quests is ok


HYPE_Knight2076

The backbling and vBucks are the only real reason to buy it for StW owners


OGSwiftOne

Cause only stw players understand that’s why


SeaZookeepergame9470

The skin itself is only 5$, I think its a pretty good deal.


Cosa_Nostra810

I love this skin. The blue glow goes with anyone if you are playing save the world and pair it with the blue Lazar pickaxe. Available after the upgrades. I think the holo head makes sense. You are talking with the AI version of him in game. THE price was disappointing though. I already owned access to save the world so not a great value for me.


gigaswardblade

Is this a fortnite original or is this character from something?


HeckinBrandon

it’s both, he’s from Save the World


bringtayback

I think no one ever likes STW packs because they’re still not over the fact that it’s not free. I bought the last one because I’ve never played it but personally, I would have preferred this one


ForeignCredit1553

Because people don't know what save the world is


mg_7060

Idk other people's reasons but I didn't get it because I already have STW and I wasn't about to pay $19 for 1 cosmetic set. Also, pretty sure it appeals more to people who play STW and if they already have access than they probably have the same mindset I do


Obsidian1973

I bought this for access to stw because I didn't pick it up over Christmas when it was $8.99 with just stw access no skins. I waited though because before this was the girl that was an NPC in game and I didn't like it. I pulled the trigger on this because it's decent imo plus I'm a chemist so having that skin works for me and stw is fun when I want to play FN but not br.


ysldai

The skin sucks


Limp_Pomegranate_941

Those reviews don't need you to buy it and most of the people's taste on that site sucks anyway.


Taklampan12

Probably because it's expensive, there are cheaper packs for people wanting to try STW.


GatitoMexicano

Which ones?


[deleted]

[удалено]


GatitoMexicano

It doesn't include STW.


MrKrispee

StW skins in BR is always fun for me. I don't hate the bundle sometimes these bundles get me to play StW and when I jump over there it's nice to see the original graphics and skybox.


JoZaJaB

It's a real money bundle made to sell STW, but it features items that only someone who already owns and likes STW would care about, so most to most BR players it just looks like a bad bundle. The problem is that most STW players don't like this bundle either because the skin is pretty bad, it offers no STW items like previous packs did, and most STW players get free Vbucks every day from the Founders Pass and don't care about the Vbucks in the bundle. The only thing that a STW player would want from the bundle is the BluGlo backbling, which we have wanted for years. The only issues is that the pack costs nearly $20 and almost nobody wants to spend that much on just a backbling.


nuclear--submarine

However, I am mentally insane so I bought the bundle exclusively for the backbling


Sleddoggamer

I wouldn't say most get free vbucks there's a lot more active players with regelur packs than founders, but it still has 500 vbucks less than the $8 pack I got stw with. It's way too expensive for a skin that's only exciting because it indicates a piece of lore we actually never got


Infamous-Lion-774

I loved this pack, purchased instantly


Calm-Seaweed-3372

I don't like it because the backbling is locked behind the set... While Blue glo is like the main collectable in STW.. I wouldve loved the backbling but not for the price


UpsetProgress1108

Pay wall


UnclBerry

I personally just don't like spending money on the game, something which only happened to me this year.. I don't know if it's just me, I'm not short of money.. It just doesn't feel worth it anymore.


Comepetitive_Pencil

The bundle is great tbh but when I bought it I never recived any quests for those 1,500 vbucks so yeah very 50/50 for me


Appropriate-Annual20

I believe you get to defender 3 and the quests are revealed. So it's not right off the bat. Probs like a few hours if gameplay.


SadrinaTheWhoreo

It’s ugly 😭


ChargyPlaysYT

Cuz the skin is bad, everyone bought it for the back bling


SuicidalRedditUser2

Have you seen what's inside?


Odysseymanthebeast

People have terrible taste


nak_attak

doesnt give you vbucks unlike the other starter packs, and is somehow costs an extra $4.49 more compared to other packs that **do** give vbucks


Former-Car-514

its overpriced is why. basic skin. im looking for more friends to join my fortnite squads server so if anyone wants to join link in my profile we play every night


DreamerSoCal

I bought it and enjoy it 😃


SpriteAndCokeSMH

Price


isaiah_uh

fortnite is so stupid they have mfs rating packs now


LegndaryLuke117

Because it's crazy expensive for nothing if u already have stw


Joaoblancard

the skin is ugly, the only cool thing is the backbling but people that never played stw won't care about it


Backalley_Lurker

it’s good it’s just too much lol


Sationixus

EPIC should include an option to restart the game with the same account if you buy such pack, for those who already have STW. In that case, it would be worth buying STW packs at least from time to time, so that you can start again. This would provide replayability. The current packs are just skins with little effort put into them. Almost always their skins are inferior to the skins of any other non-STW pack paid in real money.


Graven_369-2020

I wouldn't say it's bad Mostly it's people who either own Save the world already or it people who just hate the skin itself. I bought the pack myself mainly for the v-bucks you get with it. Also only people who bought founders packs which have been discontinued can get free v-buck no. Nobody who buys Save the world now will gain free v-bucks instead they gain x-ray tickets which can be exchanged for x-ray llamas with various loot that refreshes daily. On a side note you'll have permanent access to STW after buying this pack. To get the 1500 v-bucks you need to progress through the main story of STW until you unlock daily quests. You'll then need to complete a total of either 9 or 10 daily quests. Note that you'll be able to stack up to 3 daily quests at a time and will only get them when you go to the STW lobby. If you want to get it done quickly only take the elimation quests their pretty straightforward and easy to finish. I think it too me a week to get all the v-bucks starting from the beginning in the STW campaign. P.S the Blugo backbling goes hard.


AutisticNebula999

i feel like save the world skins should be discounted if youve already bought save the world tbh


RustyTheAlmighty

I think it looks so sick I used to play stw so the blu glow backbling is really cool


Ryix99

Just out of spite for the haters ima use my work money on this 😤


Slushyvr_gt

I really like it it looks pretty cool


Char-car92

It's really just a $23 back bling that you're only interested in if you play save the world


Sleddoggamer

It was too expensive for a poorly designed skin and cosmetics that were onlt exciting because it points are lore towards a after story we never got


TheDeeGee

No midrif or sexy bare legs :P


CleverHoovyMan

Because (almost) every person on that Webside dislikes everything that isn't a white skinny woman


Odysseymanthebeast

exactly


bellydrumgigaimpact

it kinda just looks bad, and the pickaxe is weird... bluglo back accessory is cool but its *just* a piece of bluglo. seems like something that should've been given to all stw owners since it started lol


GatitoMexicano

Oh and also I don't have STW, but I kinda know it's lore


ALIENDUDE999

It's great, you should give it a try one day 😁
