PUBG is now clearly losing players every week

After playing since release, I just installed a few hours ago.

What finally made me throw in the towel was being killed by hackers in back to back to back to back games, with three of those four while being in the Top 10. I've been gaming for almost 40 years, and have never seen a game with such an epidemic of cheating in my entire life, nothing even remotely approaching within an order of magnitude of this game. Adding insult to injury is the developer's constant feedback advising they are addressing the issue, and seeing literally zero improvement. After putting up with it for months and months, I just can't bear it anymore, no matter how much I love the game.

I literally feel dirty and cringry for saying this, since I think they blatantly copied/stole PU's game design, but I'm installing Fortnite for the first time. (and only because I like the Battle Royale gamemode, and want to try it without the constant threat of cheating for a change) If it ends up being a bust, I guess it's back to World of Warcraft.

In the end, have put in almost 1,500 hours, so it's still among the best $30 I've ever spent. It's just a shame, in my opinion at least, that they've literally lost the cheat battle.
