Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 is finally here, and the live service game is now recovering from the previous season’s fiasco that was met with a mixed reception. The gaming community got what they asked for and the developers brought back iconic characters and biomes inspired by the Marvel universe.
The newest season is titled Absolute Doom and features a menacing variant of Victor von Doom, the sovereign ruler of Latveria and the arch-nemesis of the Fantastic Four. The iconic villain is a force to be reckoned with and fans found evidence of his cruel acts and another disturbing feature.
The Gaming Community Feel Uneasy Passing by Doom’s Forge in Fortnite
Epic Games learned the hard way after the fans were vocal about their disdain regarding the weaponized and deadlier vehicles in Chapter 5 Season 3. The player base explored the new regions and biomes in the map inspired by iconic locales of Marvel and discovered the grim fates of Marvel’s First Family in Fortnite, and death is not a mercy granted by the cruel villain.
As players traversed the map and stumbled near Doom’s Forge, fans noticed something weird and felt like something was watching their every move. It appears Doom has his sights on the players and will track their movement making them feel more conscious and uneasy as they rotate from one place to another without escaping his looming shadow and intense oversight.
It is unsettling to know that an all-powerful being is watching over players explore the map and fighting for their lives against other players. It feels as if Doom is forming an opinion about a player’s skill and playstyle after the gaming community dubs Chapter 5 Season 4 the second-best season since Chapter 2 Season 4 Nexus War.
This feature will further prove the cruelty of Doctor Doom and his reach across the multiverse. This variant of the villain is not to be trifled with, especially after how he has slain multiple heroes and cosmic entities in the Marvel universe and propped their remains and gear as trophies in his throne room.
Perhaps it wasn’t a good idea to suggest nerfing the new overpowered submachine guns, especially if players will go against the villain. The gaming community will need all the help they can get to improve their chances of not winning but surviving.
This Variant of Doctor Doom Is a Paranoid Supervillain in Fortnite
In the source material, Doom is known to be a control freak and wants his subjects to obey and follow the rules. The grudge he holds against Reed Richards and the rest of the Fantastic Four made him a formidable villain who went beyond to become a massive headache for other heroes like the Avengers.
Doom’s paranoia and desire to gain control over everything makes him a compelling villain. His will to do what he deems necessary to achieve his goals is enough to send shivers down the player’s spine.
This interesting feature will make the experience feel more authentic. Being in the purview of Doom is like being marked for death.
Epic Games went above and beyond with this new feature. Hopefully, the developers will continue to implement more unique features down the line.
