MvC flopped for entirely different reasons. It's just not comparable at all.I mean MvC:I kind of flopped, a lot of people thought it would crush Injustice 2 based purely on the strength of the MCU's popularity, but that didn't really pan out. Don't get me wrong, I can absolutely see this game doing very well, and it probably will. I just also am reminded of how so many people were convinced Anthem was going to be a massive hit, and that game kind of came and went pretty quickly.
My personal prediction is that this game does very well at launch, but I doubt it will be the big Games as Service hit that keeps huge engagement numbers past the first couple of months.

MUA3 was often criticized for supposedly "looking like a mobile game" though. Obviously that isn't really right and even if they went with a cartoonish aesthetic this game would have visuals on an even higher level, but I guess that's why they went with this hyper realistic style in the first place. They want to stand out from other licensed Marvel games that are out there with a cartoonish aesthetic.The designs in this are so fucking ugly. Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 has a fraction of the budget and looks way better aesthetically.

The thing with Anthem as well is that it was catastrophically busted and became something of a meme because of that. That's the sort of sudden disaster that IMO would need to happen for Avengers to truly bomb. A game like this doesn't get sunk just by meh gameplay and awkward graphics.
GaaS + Destiny-like is like the perfect combination for ERA to hate it.

I really want to like this game. Bad.
Are the main characters we've seen so far the only playables we know of at launch? I wish we had some villain missions where we could play as some of the more notable villains.
I also feel like we've been seeing the same bits of gameplay every time and it's the tutorial bridges fight and tutorial sucksGaaS + Destiny-like is like the perfect combination for ERA to hate it.

Yes, and it does not appear there are any unlockable characters in the final launch game either - anyone else will be added in patches later.
I can already see voices from the beta telling people that the bridge level is like 20% of the entirety of scenarios, and everyone going "They will for sure add more stuff for the final game!" a'la Destiny :DI also feel like we've been seeing the same bits of gameplay every time and it's the tutorial bridges fight and tutorial sucks
Nah, everything about it just looks slightly off, like they're trying to copy every other AAA game but just aren't quite getting there in terms of quality. I'd like it to be good but I have not been impressed since the first showing.
That's some good art.
Using the MCU roster was such a let down.
Most Marvel games have moved away from using Sam Alexander as Nova, so that sadly wasn't gonna happen.
Alex Ross is a top-tier artist, so that's to be expected.
Barring an Anthem-level disaster, I don't think it'll flop.This game is gonna flop so hard and it's crazy to think
you think an avengers game would be huge but the game just look awful
When it's good its greatGaaS + Destiny-like is like the perfect combination for ERA to hate it.
People in this thread are making specific criticisms based on what we have seen and heard so far. But yeah, go with this.GaaS + Destiny-like is like the perfect combination for ERA to hate it.
Would have considered it if they got the movie licenses. These characters just look downright bad.

I went to reddit and YouTube comments and again the casuals and mcu fans will push it to millionsThe people who claim that poor reception to the game so far, is limited to Era are just as delusional as the people who think the game is going to bomb.
