I played Fortnite back in like 2018 and i personally didn't enjoy it (maybe its gotten better since then, idk) so I am entirely unbiased, but I have said for years that I fully believe that FN has some of the best character artists in the industry. I'm astonished how they make SO MANY incredible designs constantly, it blows my mind. They're iconic, they're interesting to look at, instantly recognizable, and just fun. Its no wonder the games profit is almost, if not entirely, because of the skins.

I hope the artists are paid well

I think no way home's green goblin design was pretty good with the armor and tattered clothing. Also how they just let Willem Dafoe's visible the entire time cause he has a mechanized goblin face

the venom design isn’t actually scales, it actually echoes and foreshadowed the lines in spider-man’s costume referencing how the symbiote modeled itself from that outfit

In my opinion, the mcu chose captain america’s color desaturation as a reflection of how his character got darker, especially during civil war and infinity war, I still totally agree with your opinion on the design from fortnite tho.

I think its hard to assure actors that they’re not Gonna be made fun of when wearing some of those original costumes, with Captain America you can just imagine him running around on a battle field with people dying left and right while wearing one of least intimidating costumes out there, but in Fortnite, sure, go for it, Fortnite has always been a goofy game, that can add ANYTHING without it being weird or unappealing.

I think the Final Swing suit in NWH is fantastic. It even has the shiny blue to replicate the comic shading, as the Fortnite skin does. It's just straight up a classic suit.

The green goblin skin really did just take the best aspects of the Sam rami version and applied them to the original design

Honestly the Far From Home suit is my absolute favourite because I feel like it perfectly balances simplicity and intricacy. The red and black combo is just perfection imo.

Gonna be honest, I'm quite surprised at how good I think the Marvel characters' costumes look in Fortnite.
The more alien/xenomorph details on Venom look great, and that Green Goblin armor is honestly the best design I think I've seen for the Green Goblin in general.

Green goblin was designed to both resemble the movie and comic suit, the mouth part was very likely intentional

I think you should also acknowledge DC movies costumes and how recently they've become more colorful like the recent Suicide Squad, Shazam, and Aquaman. I particularly loves all the suits in Aquaman.

This is why I fell in love with the style of Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure. The person who created the manga just didn’t care how wacky, crazy and slightly fruity everything was. It was just a fun rollercoaster that got me excited to ride

I love every single design fortnite makes for the marvel characters. It’s great how they don’t take it too seriously, and give it bright colors

The more simplistic designs fit better when the game is simplistic

If there's something that Hollywood needs to understand is that superheroes are supposed to be COLORFUL, not color drained and boring and I think fortnite doing superhero skins is perfect due to fortnite already having a colorful artstyle.

I feel like Fortnite has a bit more leeway when it comes to sillier designs, because it’s a video game with a cartoony art style, whereas the MCU is made of live action movies, where things have to be slightly more realistic looking to take seriously. All this to say, I don’t think that this is the most fair comparison. Not saying that the MCU can’t improve their designs, however I think it’s not too fair to compare a video game to live action movies. Plus, I don’t think it’s a problem for the films to make their own version of the classic suits from the comics, as long as you can tell it’s the characters from the comics. For example, I’m fine with the Spider-Man suit from the end Spider-Man Far From Home, in fact that’s one of my favorite of his suits from these films. The reason I like it is because it looks cool, and it looks like Spider-Man. Do I prefer the suits that are more like the comics, sure, however I like that suit fine, and I’d be satisfied if he kept it at the end of No Way Home. However, if Spider-Man ended up looking like Black Noir from The Boys…Marvel and I would have a problem lol.

The way I see it is... the MCU can't get away with some of these comic accurate designs. Captain America's suit in the Avengers was the most comic accurate suit he's gotten(aside from the one he used to sell war bonds in TFA). However it looked goofy and awkward because Chris Evans (as buff as he may be) can't possibly have the super unrealistic proportions you see in CBs and other media. FN already has a set art style that can easily get away with over-the-top proportions because it already has that "cartoony" look. So I feel like all these lines and straps and and "details", are meant to distract you from the fact that without them, the suits would looks super simplistic and unappealing.

I will say, they have been getting a bit more colorful and accurate lately, but that's mostly because CB artists have started using certain design elements from the movies as their blueprint, mostly to make the characters more identifiable to newcomers.

Personally disagree, realistically if you wear any thing long enough it will get darker;
it is realistic even if the story doesn’t make sense. like a man being frozen in ice and surviving it makes no sense but if things don’t look right visually if it’s to bright you can’t get behind it. your not watching a comic book it should be as if these characters exist in our world and work by our rules even if they don’t.

There's just this careful balance that has to be made. You don't want it to look really silly and stupid with bright colors, that doesn't mesh well in real life settings. But you want to stay faithful to the material. I think they did well in the new Doctor Strange movie for example.

Star-Lord’s Fortnite design is mostly intended to be inaccurate because it’s contextualised as a Fortnite character cosplaying as Quill, not Quill himself.

The character cosplaying as him is the “Drift” character from Chapter 1 Season 5’s Battle Pass. Other skins at the time did the same thing like the Black Widow skin using Headhunter or Batman using Jonesy.
