Fortnite has promoted many things for Season 3. Better XP system, relaxed vibe, and cool new skins like the customizable action figure ‘Schnips’. Many were looking forward to the countless combo possibilities, but now all players are disappointed. Why?
What is Schnips? Schnips is part of the new Battle Pass of Season 3 Chapter 3 and is an action figure. Players can customize this skin over the weeks and unlock different styles, heads, arms, and much more.
When you unlock the skin for the first time, you can see many grayed-out fields on its Battle Pass page. Behind these wait new opportunities for you to customize the action figure to your liking.
Players have therefore hoped for many new heads and torsos to look cool, but leakers have now found out what fans can really expect from the data.
Reskins disappoint the community across the board
What information was found? Reddit user Livid-Respect5357 published a leak from leaker “Hypex”, showing what additional styles players can expect for Schnips.
This post shows a new headgear, the rest are just reskins of existing body parts. So you won’t receive any new cosmetic content regarding Schnips until the end of Season 3.
In doing so, Livid-Respect5357 disappointingly titles their post “One of the biggest missed opportunities I’ve ever seen…”.
How are players reacting? Not only Livid is disappointed, but also everyone in the comments under their post. Many players cannot believe that Epic Games has wasted such potential. Those who know Toy Story understand the possibilities Epic Games could have had to provide the action figure with crazy combos.
Players are therefore commenting on reddit about their displeasure regarding how Epic designed the skin:
- I was looking forward to a new torso, but no, we are stuck with three buff torsos in different colors – says DeadEndXD
- I really thought we would get new, unique things for Schnips, but I believe they are just blatant reskins – writes i_only_land_onchard disappointed
- This game always gets sooo close to something great and then completely ruins their chances. […] – says tideshark
- It’s not even that it just changes color, it’s also that the parts are bad, why is the cool action figure not based on toys, but on garbage and olives? – adds Notwarioalt
The disappointment runs through to the end of the post. Players want to make it clear what opportunities Epic had and ultimately buried through reskins.
What do you think of Schnips, do you find the combo possibilities sufficient and appropriate or do you also think Epic Games should have put in more effort? Let us know in the comments what you think.
