They made ROTTR though which you rank right below the classics in terms of gameplay well , unless you flipped on that as well .

Anyway , the leaked gameplay do look so overly scripted , but it could be the beginning of the game (and CD have a habit of spoiling the scripted openings of their games) . I'm not an Avengers fan to begin with but I'll watch out for the game , just out of curiosity to see what can CD do outside the suffocating confines of TR , I have yet to try their prestigious Legacy of Kain as well (probably soon) .

Boycott this literal ****. CD is dead to me. So sad to see them KILL another franchise like they did TR.

Pretty sure the Avengers have been going strong for 50+ years now, long before video games were ever a thing(Endgame is the second biggest movie success in history for goodness sake behind James Cameron's Avatar at number one).

So quit acting like such an overdramatic little baby and act your age. A big company like Marvel can afford to take a potential flop with all the money they've gotten off the MCU alone, without entitled individuals like yourself supporting it financially.

And if something doesn't appeal to you, skip it and try something else more attuned to your tastes. That's my personal mantra

I don't even care for modern AAA games much anymore. But I feel this needs to be said when people fail to see the bigger picture of how businesses are run

It's my opinion and it's a forum. You may not like what I said but you too are welcome to skip my opinion to what appeals to you. That's my mantra.

I still haven't made my mind on whether I should or shouldn't buy the game , I only said I'll keep an eye on it . However , if I bought it and ended up enjoying it , I'll be forever grateful that I didn't pay any attention to someone having a hyperbolic meltdown and screaming for people to boycott CD's/EM's products , just because CD is "dead to him" .

Like I said on some other thread, overall I felt a little underwhelmed by the Avengers' presentation.

The character design — which seems to be the top complain online — is indeed very uninspired. While I get they couldn't use the MCU actors' likeness for the game (and I don't think they had to), the fact they chose to stick so close to the MCU in everything else (the roster, the costumes, etc) really makes it seem like their stunt doubles or something. I also can't get over the fact how bland they look! They actually managed to make them unattractive! And their heads look way too small for their bodies. So yeah, I don't like it.

Gameplay-wise, I still need to see more. What they showed seemed very on rails and not really to my liking, but then again, CD's games usually start up in very linear segments and then open up a bit, so yeah, I need to see more.

What if you don't enjoy it and I was right? I ain't screaming or having a meltdown. Last Good thing CD did is Legacy of Kain and TR Legend for me. Rise came close and is my reboot favorite. Again, I reiterate, this is a forum and it's my opinion.

Why so black and white? One might not enjoy Avengers (I have a hunch I won’t), but that doesn’t mean they’re going to hate it with every fiber of their being like you do towards some reboot things or towards the developers.
