To be honest I fully expect Stan Lee to outlive Marvel Heroes at this point.

you're probably right

that means he'd outlive gaz too, i can't imagine them bouncing back once they lose the marvel license

I couldn't really get into the first one, for what it's worth. Then again the only non-Diablo ARPGs I ever did get into to any noteworthy degree were Mormon Hobos and Titan Quest. :shrug:

At least this opens the way for reskinning Reed into Kamala for gaz, surely that will save the game

Yeah. Didn't really care for either of them.

It's possible and indeed likely that I just have lovely taste, though, as evidenced by the absurd amount of time I put into this stupid game over the years. :v:

Cosmic Awareness sounds like the name of a national campaign to curtail the number of tragic deaths and ruined families due to reckless yellowmanning.

Never cosmic.

I found it unbearably janky and unengaging. I lasted longer playing Torchlight which is basically the baseline for uninspired ARPGs.

They removed the thread, talking about the FF was too much of a thoughtcrime I guess.

e; wait, they removed the FF notes from the test center patch notes as well.

I'm honestly going to be sad when the game finally dies. It does so many things well and has marvel action figures I can punch together but they wasted all the momentum the game had ~2 years ago.

(I want to say that people were pretty ok with the rate of new content up until Genosha/Ultron mode and new heroes were released at a decent clip while also being pretty well received)

Come on now, in corporate terms they are simply "restructuring".

Also is that yet another Ironman palette swap?

An exceedingly mediocre game series with a terrible system and bad humour sprinkled throughout. It's also very unattractive to look at. Play Grim Dawn instead.

Grim Dawn is really neat since it is the spiritual successor to Titan Quest. If you enjoyed that game, play Grim Dawn.

let's be real here it's not fair to blame gaz over this

honestly this just makes the lovely position they're in even shittier and for once its not the fault of anyone working at the company

We're on like what the third dev team still trying to clean up the mess of the last two and it feels like every move they make results in the fanbase getting angrier to the point where maybe the only winning move is to just sever the PC version and focus on getting console fans

They could always put the heroes on sale for 50G each and the costumes for 100G each as a going away sale to make it less of a lovely position.

You're assuming that's a thing they're even allowed to do right now. In fact I bet the reason the announcement was deleted is because Marvel was upset they were giving the players any heads up about this at all.

I'm prepared to be super wrong about this, but its what it feels like.
