So Epic Games has just empowered the OG Season 4 Battle Pass in Fortnite, and we should just drop the mic: reactions are quite contrasting, with some hyping it up, while others just roasting about a whole lot, and some already begging for fixes. Classic chaotic Fortnite community discourse.
The official Fortnite Twitter announced the awaking of the OG Season 4 Battle Pass with a cryptic “We’re all just Visitors here…,” then came the sudden chill of replies: some rejoiced, some complained; and others threw in random lore theories, much like throwing popcorn.
Hype guys first. Gamers like TiltedFN10 cannot wait. “I for one am excited for season 5 and the rest of chapter 1 to be back,” he tweets. BurakDinek1905, and yeah, that’s probably the craziest name I’ve ever had my eyes on, screamed in all caps, “I ALREADY HAVE IT THANKS EPIC FINALLY YOU GOT SHIT DONE RIGHT.” With that kind of reaction, nothing can go wrong.
On the other hand, there are some. Mewtwo150 didn’t mince his words and called this the “worst og pass so far” with the lack of remixed emotes and just too many reskins. Ouch. And nathansGworld goes straight in with, “Just release the old battle passes at this point this looks terrible.” Harsh, but hey, Fortnite players never do.
Others are specific: SimonCap went straight into demand mode, with, “give omega a black edit style, fix og grass colors, add the og lighting todm, remove bots, remove sbmm, fix all the inaccuracies with the weapons like the models, textures, icons, stats and sounds.” When one has a checklist, one must use it, clearly. Lenniel, meanwhile, wants only the black edit style for Omega. Can’t blame them. Fashion is endgame in Fortnite.
Then came the lore droppers. LimeyAlgodoo went straight “lore mentioned” with no context, while Seqezzy teased, “They mentioned the seven and save the world this year. I’m busting.” FNLoreApproved joined in with, “IT AIN’T OVER ‘TIL IT’S OVER,” because nothing says Fortnite theorists like some vague hype.
Random international shoutouts cannot be forgotten. Dekuseru wrote in Russian, “Настало время возвращаться 🔥🔥🎉🎉,” essentially meaning, “It’s time to return.” Mood.
But here’s the thing: With all the haters or lovers, the OG Season 4 Battle Pass has come in, bringing the classic Chapter 1 vibes with it. For some, that’s icing on the cake. For others? Well, they shall keep tweeting until Epic caves in and gives Omega that black edit style.
So what comes next? More chaos, more demands, and if Kreisexxx’s cryptic tweet is anything to go by, there may just be a Pierce the Veil collab sometime soon. Fortnite never sleeps; neither do its players. Buckle up.
