The man was fond of building elaborate castles in the game. His fun was ruined when he would jump into a match because of the giant robot mecha suits. Two players were able to melt Reed's health bar in seconds with the help of those suits.

At that point in early 2019, it was clear that the battle Royale's game mechanics had gotten a little too crazy for him, and that was a long time ago.

Reed goes by the name KingYoshi on the internet. He turned to a different part of the game instead of waiting for the Mechs to be phased out. I started messing around in there becauseFortnite Creative came out a long time ago.

Reed doesn't play the battle Royale mode anymore. His creations include a Peach's Castle from Super Mario 64 and a police station from Resident Evil 2.

Reed doesn't go out of a bus and onto an island anymore. They spend a lot of time tweaking their own islands in the game. Thousands of maps, from single-player horror adventures to rounds of hide-and-seek, have transformed into a marketplace of creativity.

One of the earliest studios to cash in on the battle Royale craze was Unreal Games. In the game industry, the game mode is common. Call of Duty: Warzone is one of many games in the genre.

50 percent of the time players spend on the game is in Creative. Rather than killing each other on an island, they're hosting virtual office holiday parties or trying to answer questions to avoid having a truck thrown at them. Classics have found a new home in Creative.

Reed thought of a SOCOM map as the first thing he thought of when he first started playing the game. I made it here and there, mostly in sessions after I lost my mind.

Reed wanted to recreate some of his favorite moments from SOCOM by building his favorite map, Enowapi, within Creative. He showed it to his friends, who loved it. Things went off the rails when they shared it with SOCOM.
