The story's fine, and they said they'd do clean up in the last chapter.

Man this game feels like such a janky cash-in. Maybe I'm being too mean but it's one of those demos that actively unhype you for a game.
EDIT: Also everything I've heard about short haired Danvers makes her sound like an absolute psycho so Woolie has poo poo taste there.

I don't know why, but the thing that bugs me the most about MVCI is that they're using the lovely Rad Spencer design. It's so bad!

I'd bet after the initial financial flop of SFV, they didn't want to put a lot of money into their next fighting game so the dev team had to re-use tons of poo poo from MvC3 to get it together at all. That's my no 1 dehype fact, that tons of the cast feel like they were just dragged and dropped in from 3. Even ignoring the datamined/leaked/whatever full roster, the demo has what, 10 characters shown and only 2 of them are new?

There's a lot of recycling from 3 but there isn't a single character that hasn't been hosed up in some way.

It should also be pointed out that Capcom's making this one entirely on their own, which wasn't the case for any of their recent fighting games.

I'm also confused by Dreadlock Spencer - they already made a classic skin, they could have based the new character on that version if they wanted to.

drat, did they hate Jill being in 3 as much as they do Chris? Once Phoenix Wright and Frank West were characters, I thought we would've moved beyond taking the game seriously at all.

It's not about taking the game seriously, it's about the roster being incredibly lazy and RE being like the only Capcom property that's actually got stuff to pull from in the past six years for representation in this game. Like why would you want Chris from RE5 again, when they can put in Jack from RE7 or Leon now. Hell, if Nemesis is in the game again like that leak list confirms, that's even weirder and shows how little time and money is being put into this.

The RE reps should have been Leon Kennedy (the one RE protagonist with > 0 personality) and Jack Baker, worst dad.

As stupid and easily ridiculed as it is, Bionic Commando's concept of "robotic arm wife" is amazing. She should talk to Spencer and be like "good job, honey! We make a great team!" when he beats dudes up. Don't have to even have much of a story, just make it the adventures of Spencer and his robotic arm wife. I think they went all serious and boring with it, though, which sucks.

Infinite's sort of funny in that the overriding view from the fgc was "mild anticipation." After all, it wa the only real versus type of game coming out. However, that anticipation took a complete nosedive once dbz fighterz was announced. Competition can really hurt a substandard product.

You can just hear how none of the friends are hyped for this game anymore.

Complete opposite for me, Night in the Woods rules.

Also we had Vergil, Zero and whatever else in UMVC3, I can only wonder what new reign of darkness will loom over Infinite.

Woolie seemed like he was trying the hardest to stay positive and he kept getting more and more quiet as the video went on except when making GBS threads on Chris/trying to defend Spencer.

Thank you, Goku, for saving fighting games.

e: man, i hope the boys get into the lucha underground hype train again soon. We're knee-deep into a aztec-god-venom arc in which a character just punched through a politician's brains.
