Doja Cat’s Frustrations with Fortnite
Doja Cat is a Fortnite enthusiast. Known primarily for her musical talents, Doja Cat is also an avid gamer.
The California native streams on Twitch occasionally; one of her current favorite games is Fortnite. Since its launch in late 2017, Fortnite has grown immensely, largely thanks to influencers like Ninja. The multiplayer battle royale is famous for its frequent updates, DLCs, and in-game concert events. However, not all changes are welcomed by everyone, and recently, Doja Cat has voiced her frustrations.
According to AllHipHop, Doja has been particularly upset with a weapon called the Chains of Hades and the Water Bending ability. She took to social media platform X to express her displeasure:
FORTNITE WOULDN'T BE SO FUCKING EMBARRASSING IF THEY MADE LOBBIES WHERE PEOPLE WITH ACTUAL AIM SKILLS AND FPS EXPERIENCE DIDN'T DEAL WITH LOSERS USING FUCKING WATER BENDING AND CHAINS OF HADES. *

WATER BENDING IS A FUCKING CRUTCH YOU ARE NOT GOOD AT THE GAME BECAUSE OF WATER BENDING, I WOULD BECOME SEVERELY DEPRESSED IF I HAD TO RELY ON ANY OF THESE STUPID NON FUCKING WEAPONS*

With a high-profile player like Doja Cat venting her frustrations, it was only a matter of time before Fortnite's developers took notice. According to Dexerto, Epic Games removed the overpowered Chains of Hades shortly after her tweets. This weapon, introduced at the beginning of Chapter 5 Season 2, has been removed from the game for the current season.
