Reports Square Enix takes huge financial hit due to Marvel’s Avengers game

[Gizmo_Duck]

Not surprised at all, hell no one should really be surprised...

played the beta and thought it was meh. My friends played it for two weeks and then dropped it.

Their lucky cyberpunk didn't come out in sep or they woulda really been fukked.

Lotta things they shouldn't have bothered doing with this game. I wonder if they will bother trying to course correct or just shuck deuces after the dlc that's done is pushed out

That’s why. I thought it was funny that people tried to get mad over the spider-man DLC. I knew this game would be trash from the first gameplay trailer yet people thinking spiderman coming to the game in 2021 would be a big deal.

They haven’t released any of their DLC characters yet and already lost the majority of their user base. The game is dead in the water. Eventually developers are gonna get the hint with these GAAS

A lot of these GAAS joints gonna end up costing these greedy companies money.

GOOD.

MFers stole my money.

I passed on the game initially, but early gameplay a week before it released sold me.

What a mistake.

They never should have tried so hard to bite off destiny... should have been a single player action adventure game with a great story.... And they couldn't even do that right...

 

[DaSk8D00D]

goof ass companies keep tryna dethrone the gawd Warframe

honestly this game looked like shyt from the jump

lowkey we need a new Hulk Ultimate Destruction game i know those devs went on to make Prototype which was also piff but a new Hulk game would do numbers

how u flop with avengers anyways?

I was never really a Hulk fan but Ultimate Destruction was one of my all time favorite games as kid

I wanna say they can get people to come back... but I can't think of any gaas game that flopped and people came back in any real numbers. Fallout 76 maybe

Low key glad this shyt blew up in their face.

Not for square Enix but for Disney/ Marvel's sake. Ever since MCU has turned into a cash cow, Marvel has neglected alot of their comics material in other forms of media and only focused on the film versions of heroes and as result every game they have dropped during this run has been

MvC:I
MUA3
Avengers

I'm glad they never tried a new X-men game, that would just be trash too

Spiderman is the only Marvel franchise/hero thats been consistently dope. And ironicly we can thank Sony for that

Crazy thing is, they’ll look at the books and say “this video game sht ain’t workin.”knowing damn well they don’t know sht about games or the gaming industry. Finna take less chances and be more stingy with licenses.

Worse off the medium won’t even be dead to them, but they’ll just be releasing sht for 6 year olds for ages instead of the piff you and I want to see.


It’s 100% Disney too. Ain’t got no good games.

Destiny, FF XIV, and to a lesser extent Halo 5

Warframe has flopped a dozen times Destiny dies every year Borderlands 3 came and went and came again no mans sky gets treated like its a good game when it was the biggest scam in the business at release

its part of the process. as long as people keep coming back, its whatever.

NostraLion tried to told 'em

some of those games ehhhh can't agree

 

[Red Shield]

Destiny, FF XIV, and to a lesser extent Halo 5

I was only around for D2.. don't remember D1 that well.

I will definitely give you that FF...


and I never heard of Halo 5 talked of as a gaas

 

[Bryan Danielson]

Game looked boring from the outset.

Im having fun with it

 

[Th3G3ntleman]

These GAAS games gonna end up bankrupting a bunch of developers. These publishers want that consistent whale money but they gonna fucck around and end up in the hole trying to push that bullshyt every couple months.

 

[Womb Raider]

That’s ironic as fukk

how you fukk up a marvel game

A Marvel superhero game should not only be easy to make, but it should also print money....I wasn’t really fukking with this game off the rip and the beta was shyt IMO but wtf! Now we not getting another marvel game for a few years and it will be shyt

When you gotta program for 6 completely different super abilities it’s guaranteed to be mid.
