Hoo boy this thread huh? Some people just can't help themselves being angry about popular games.
Anyway, so far I'm loving Apex. I already kinda lost the interest in BR genre as a whole but this game resparked it. In all other BRs I played I found something that didn't personally suit me (not saying others are bad, per se). Apex just seems to do so many things right for me. I love how it plays. Likewise it has hooked a bunch of my friends as well, that are generally not fans of BR (anymore).
It makes me extra happy this is from Respawn, because Titanfall 2 was awesome and is undeservedly underpopulated.
