The Existential Crisis of a Fortnite Fashionista: How Many Emotes Are There, Anyway?
Ah, Fortnite. Land of loot llamas, epic builds, and enough floss dances to make a dentist cringe. But for a true connoisseur of the game, the real question isn't "how many wins do I have?" (although, let's be honest, that number is important too). The question that haunts our V-Buck-laden dreams is this: just how many emotes are there in Fortnite?
Is it a trick question? A mathematical nightmare?
We've all been there. You triumphantly eliminate the final opponent, victory royale within your grasp. But then... what? Do you whip out the classic "Orange Justice"? Maybe the ever-so-slightly-mocking "Take the L"? Or perhaps you crave something a little more niche, a deep cut emote that only the OG players will understand?
The Struggle is Real (and Expensive)
Here's the thing: with every update, Epic Games throws another batch of emotes onto the ever-growing pile. We're talking celebratory dances, sassy hand gestures, musical instruments (because who doesn't want to play a kazoo mid-battle?), and even full-on emote recreations of iconic movie scenes. It's a glorious, overwhelming mess.
So, How Many Emotes Are We Talking About?
According to sources who may or may not have spent hours counting while strategically avoiding laundry duty (ahem), as of February 1, 2024, Fortnite boasted a staggering 863 emotes. Yes, 863. That's more emotes than there are muscles you never knew you had after a particularly intense build fight.
But Wait, There's More!
The number keeps growing! Every season brings a fresh batch of digital jiggling for us to flaunt (or shamefully collect because gotta catch 'em all, right?). So, by the time you read this, that number could be well over 900. Fortnite emotes are like Pokémon, gotta collect 'em all!
The Moral of the Story?
There's no moral, really. Just accept the beautiful, emote-filled chaos that is Fortnite. Embrace the existential dread of never having enough V-Bucks to acquire every single emote. And most importantly, don't be afraid to floss on your enemies.
