if this mean they ditching that turn based gameplay and doing a more action-rpg style game like the old MUA games then this is a GREAT look. But I doubt it, I mean what sense does it make to have access to all of Marvel's characters and do a fukking turn-based game instead of some action style piff. :ld:

Thats the only way you can use every marvel character to their full capabilities. MUA everyone is the same power level

Sounds like the higher ups caught wind of whatever backlash and started sweating about sales.

A Marvel game with an obscure team brand and a more obscure, polarizing gameplay choice?

The execs prob thought slapping Ironman captain america and wolverine on the roster would be enough and didn’t pay attention to the rest of the initial pitch or the associated risks.

Kinda feels like it was a passion project and Marvel was being used as a stimulus package to get eyes on it.

Otherwise yea, you just make an action rpg with absolute focus on the marvel characters and not a create a player.

Just give us Xcom with marvel characters, leave the card bullshyt to some mobile game.
I was kinda hyped about this game until I seen the card playing mobile game bs. I still don't understand why Iron Man and few others are apart of the game though...

If anything, that's where the rework came from.

Turn based will always have a lane (and its honestly growing year after year). But card shyt? That actively pushes everyone away and is only good for protecting bad developer ideas while keeping a VERY niche subset of people entertained.
