There's been a growing discussion about whether Fortnite's Battle Pass system actually encourages skill development or mainly pushes players to chase cosmetics. On one hand, the tiered challenges seem to push players to try out new weapons and strategies. On the other hand, many argue that the reward system heavily favors skins and emotes, turning progression into a grind for vanity items rather than meaningful gameplay improvement. How do you think the current design affects long-term player growth? Should future seasons focus more on skill-based rewards, or is the current balance acceptable as it is? Looking forward to hearing different perspectives.
Is the Battle Pass model driving skill progression or just fueling cosmetic churn in Fortnite?

Oh man, I'm still stuck on how to even complete the first 20 tiers of the BP without rage-quitting by tier 5—chasing skins instead of actually improving my shotgun aim! 😅 Maybe if they gave XP for headshots instead of just playing matches, I’d actually level up skills instead of my bank account for imaginary outfits. Seasons are fun and all, but my mechanical skill is still at TI-Nspire level.
