Why PS4 only? Is this paid for by Sony partly? It's not. There are some unspecified PS4-exclusive bonuses, and PS4 beta early access, but it's a multiplatform release.

Ah, I was under the impression it is PS4 exclusive like Spiderman. Spiderman I understand since the company that did that is close to or owned by Sony. So does that mean PC as well eventually?

Thor looks terrible. And his gear. What the hell.

Everything about this game seems off. I've never been one to harp on a game's graphics but this looks like a mobile game. And in going for the look but not copying the costumes/actors from the MCU, it's given the game this weird uncanny valley like effect that just looks...weird.
No buy

I'll stick to Ultimate Alliance 3, methinks.

I really hope they get MCU outfits as options. If the mobile game "Marvel Future Fight" can have MCU skins for nearly every character for every movie (released the week of the movie in theatres) I can't see why a way higher budget game can't.

Think it looks alright. Hank Pym shows that they aren't sticking solely to the MCU versions. The voice cast is great. I think the visuals are alright... not fantastic... I do think I'd need to see some more gameplay before I actually decide to get it or not... and hey it's got Taskmaster who is one of my favorite villains involved also a few reviews I saw were hyping up how great the game is going to be in the future with the roadmap... which is a red flag for me... UA3 is still the big want of Marvel games for me at the moment.

I really think (hope?) that it'll look better on release. It's just going to be interesting to see how the 5 characters will play individually in the game (I assume Cap will be in the gameplay, despite the hints that he was killed on A Day). It's all going to depend on the storyline for me with this one, I'm spoiled now by Spider-Man, and if the story is crap for this one, it's not going to help any issues we have with graphics or gameplay.

So based on movie avengers with out getting the actors likenesses ? I'm guessing they remix and do their own shit like Spiderman on the PS4 did which I believe is in the same universe I'm not all that certain it is. CD really doesn't have much to do with Naughty Dog, other than that they have an Uncharted director heading up this project. The Taskmaster (I assume it's Taskmaster) is similar in look but different from the one in Spider-Man. I think it's possible that they could be universe adjacent, but I'm not convinced that it's taking place in the Spidey Game Universe. It'd be impressive and quite a shock if it was, though.

They are being hush hush on it to an extent right now as when asked about if it is the same universe they aren't confirming or denying. Their was an Avengers tower in Spiderman so we may get a loose association if anything

It is possible this could happen before Spider-Man, and there is going to be a time jump in the game, so it might fit into the world. I guess we're going to find out.

Yea, color me surprised if they do indeed get a shared universe. With the way Spiderman changed up their status quo, we could see the same big changes in Avengers tho either way i'm fine with Spiderman on its own just because of they changed up things and they are making it great by itself and a lot of shit to look forward too

I mean, when they promise alternate skins the costumes don't even really matter. I played most of Spidey PS4 in the Homecoming suit.

The success of the MCU, the charisma of the actors, and the sheer amount of time spent with those characters has caused the MCU to become the definitive Marvel for a broad audience. It's recast backlash, despite being based on fictional comic characters and not real actors.

It's recast backlash, despite being based on fictional comic characters and not real actors. Which I understand as well. People are used to these characters being portrayed to the way they were and having great actors portray them. Now, we have new vision but using some of the same old concepts so people aren't really feeling it The big thing they will have to do is make sure the personalities are diff to an extent. Is Tony going to be the wisecracking smart ass or do you go a more serious route? Like I said before I think the game takes some of the same concepts but flips it on its head like they did with Spiderman on the PS4. New fans will get a diff experience meanwhile older fans will notice the changes and be excited for a potential diff story

Insomniac did Spidey PS4, not Naughty Dog. I'd be really surprised if it was in the same continuity because outside of the Marvel license, the two games are done by completely different publishers and developers. The Avengers game is also going to be on Xbone, Windows, and Google Stadia while Spidey was exclusive to just PS4. Could just be coincidence more than anything.
I'm not bothered about the graphics now because there's a lot of time to enhance and clean up things to make it look better. I also trust in Crystal Dynamics' and Eidos Montreal's pedigree to deliver good games more often than not.

I mean, I get it. You've got dates to make.
On the other hand. If you're gonna make a game like this, you have to know that the look of your characters is going to matter to people. And if you miss the mark, you ought to be prepared to do something about it or risk alienating your customers.
If I don't like the way a character design looks and I tell you, and you tell me to shove it, that's fine. I'm not gonna buy the game though.
In terms of this game, I dunno if I'm going to get it or not. I'm far more interested in MUA3.
