This is going to be straight garbage. Not only will it be overstuffed with every microtransaction possible, there's no way to balance the characters while still keeping them true to the comics. Thor vs. Mantis? Dr. Strange vs. Punisher? Maybe you can help it a bit by having some of the classes be dps/healer/tank, and constrain them somehow, but I don't see how this would ever work.

Outside of a mobile game. If they are making it a mobile game, it will make $2 billion and be a completely unbalanced piece of shit, and everyone will love it anyways and play it for the next two years.

I'm so tired that this kind of opinion has infested lemmy discourse. Reddit wasn't this bad.

Wait for shit to come out before getting mad at it. You don't have to write fan fiction on how mad you are about something just so you can get your anger based serotonin fix early.

What's the last NetEase game you've played? I'll wait.

What’s the best dopamine rush you’ve ever gotten from hating on something? How long did it last? When you looked back on it the next day, was it a fond memory for those two minutes?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 7 months ago

Well, I really hated it when someone's intensely human matriarch from a parallel universe wouldn't give me a snowball after. Although, the dopamine could have come from the climax and not the hating...not too sure. 😂😂

Please. I'm pointing out how all you want to do is get mad about things and are in such a fervour to do so that you won't even wait for the thing to exist to get mad about it.

You want to get mad? Fine, but don't write fan fiction then get mad about that.

I'm not the original commenter with the "rage fan fiction". I'll answer my own question though. Naraka: Bladepoint. You ever play Naraka: Bladepoint? What about Last Light? I've played both, both are hot garbage and microtransaction filled. If a company has a history of putting out shoddy work, why the heck should any of us expect this new game to be any different?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

You can say the company has a history of mistakes, that's fine. That's not what op did and you know it.

Trailer dropped today. I'll give it a chance.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

Why should you expect the game … at all?

How is any expectation whatsoever helpful?

There’s a predictive model you can build and run in your brain. The result of running this model will be feelings of disgust, frustration, anger.

Do you choose to run this mental program? If so, why?

Reddit was definitely worse than one person's opinion on a obvious cash grab mobile game. I'm not mad. I'm likely not the target audience for this game. If you are excited about it, be excited. Go play it. Give them your money. They will be excited too. Have fun. Spend. Enjoy.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

I'm not excited about it, I'm just not writing fan fiction so I can get more mad about it.

You know people can look at the world around them, notice trends, and make fairly accurate predictions of the future based on them, yeah?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

Sure. And someone who gets worked up over these predictions is foolish.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago

Just Hawkeye and Black Widow. They don't have powers, they're just good at their jobs. It's already silly in they other games they appear but at least there they don't fight each other.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

There's going to be some silly background story that somehow levels the playing field, I'm guessing...

This is a solved problem in the comic book digital media universe: anyone with insufficient powers is given a robot suit to bring them up to par.

Batman … in a robot suit. Spider man … in a robot suit. The Punisher … in a robot suit. Tony Stark … in a robot suit.
