I said come in! posted:Surprise Marvel fighting game announced by Nether Realm is what I have dreams about. Maybe Marvel will jump ship after MVCI sells badly. Not sure if Disney would be cool with NRS handling Marvel given the darker edge of being associated with Mortal Kombat, but NRS has come so far with their presentation and experience with content that I actually thing they could pull of a relatively lighthearted Marvel game. Weirdo gimmicks like Braniac's tentacle swings and attacks / Cyborg's grapples make me think they could actually do wild stuff like Doc Ock, a presentable Spiderman, etc.

This might be a hot take, but I'd rather take the cheap, low-quality but slightly stylized look of MvCI to Injustice 2's ugly normie Unreal Engine poo poo. I've said it a billion times but it is a giant shame that the flagship game representing a medium whose entire appeal is the humongous array of cool visual styles looks as boring and bad as Injustice 2 does.

It's unlikely that Disney will ever hand a Marvel license to Netherrealm, because Netherrealm is a Warner Brothers Media company. It is directly owned by a Disney competitor. There will reportedly not be another official Marvel/DC crossover until such time as Joe Quesada, Dan Didio, or more likely both are gone from Marvel and DC, respectively. It's been about 13 years, as I recall. I'm also not real sure that MVC:I will be a big enough bomb to justify Disney taking any sort of extreme measures. I know people really want it to blow up on the runway, but it can't have been in development for more than a couple of years, so it's a relatively cheap production, and the word "Marvel" on its cover is going to sell a few copies to the casual market. I don't expect it to set the world on fire, since MVC3 was only a moderate success, but MVC:I should find an audience. (What I would expect is that Disney will more or less ignore the entire thing. MvC:I will get the same small, fervent tournament scene that UMvC3 did, with many of the same faces, and pulls in just enough money that nobody pulls the plug, but not enough money that MvC:I gets adequately supported after launch. The community ends up just having to live with whatever characters/teams/tactics end up as the most degenerate, when any other company would patch them out. After that, it's down to wherever Capcom and the FGC happen to be in 2022 or so.)

Apparently they want it to become the flagship Capcom Cup game, so I imagine it'll be supported for at least a year or two after launch.

MVCI just looks like mobile bullshit sprinkled with startling emptiness in its roster. Wanderer posted:What I would expect is that Disney will more or less ignore the entire thing. Yeah there's no reason to care about Capcom's next fuckup when they have a heavily-marketed Spiderman game for PS4 and a Squeenix Avengers in the pipe; both have way bigger ceilings.

Oh yeah, there's no denying that the roster in Injustice 2 isn't very impressive. I just wish these characters were in a game that looked good. The dream would be the technology in XRD used to make a game that looks like the early Bruce Timm animated DC stuff.

Injustice 2 looks amazingly better with HDR. It goes from dark and drab to a real noir / art decor type of look.

The Fool posted:I haven't been following MVCI and just looked up the roster. Capcom can't directly acknowledge why Xmen/Fantastic Four characters are missing and it's forced them to make incredibly stupid statements like "characters are just functions when you really think about it" and "kids these days don't even remember the X-men". The Capcom side of the roster also sucks for no other reason than laziness/lack of budget.

The Fool posted:I haven't been following MVCI and just looked up the roster. literally the only licensing issue is with the movies. Marvel owns all of the x-men and fantastic four characters for every other form of media and are being spiteful idiots because they had more input in this game than before.

The X-Men ban has been relaxed over the last year anyway, they're in games again now. The F4 ban has been made even harsher.

Honestly a lot of DC heroes are just *looks around room* uh....Vacuum Cleaner Man to begin with so Batwoman is the least harmful thing they could do.

Supposedly a designer was disconfirming characters on their instagram although said account is gone now so there's no real way to check the actual source. The characters the designer discarded were: Batwoman Big Barda Cyclone Etrigan Granny Goodness Katana Killer Croc Parasite Shazam Wonder Girl
