Yeah I played the first two missions and decided that was enough for now.

It's not the worst, but not really seeing anything drawing me to play it.

Sure wish I could be rocking Thing in Midtown right now.

Just teach Minnie to flip switches. Granted, then there would be no consistency to the switch flipping, but really would we have it any other way?

I turned all the graphics to the highest setting and the game ran worse instead of running better? I don't understand what I'm doing wrong.

If you want to improve the framerate in magic legends dramatically, put on some sunglasses and type "/shadows 0" in chat without quotes.

Marvel as the world brightness goes up 8,000%, because they basically set it to max brightness and then just put layers and layers of shadows on LITERALLY EVERYTHING to darken it.

I saw a streamer enable shadows and it was :lol: at how it made the game look significantly darker but no better.

If it works like most the other Cryptic games, names aren't population locked because your characters actual name in the system appends your account name to the end. But it's good you didn't have to risk it either way.

it's incredibly funny and also depressing that HOTS is still running its christmas event, three days from April.

HOTS is Blizzard's Heroes of the Storm which reportedly been put on life support and is run by a skeleton crew. So maybe Switch Flipper got canned again :(

It's not reportedly, blizz explicitly stated the entire game was going on life support mode 3 years ago when they backstabbed the professional scene a week before xmas after repeatedly telling pros that spring split would start as planned in Jan.

Literally the only good thing about Cryptic games, yet when City of Heroes was shutting down and the possibility of a Cryptic run CoH2 was floated, tons of players were LIVID that they wouldn't be the only Darkkl0rde Wolfpayne anymore :lol:

If someone made a Diablo style ARPG where the two main features were going fast and clearing out trash even faster I'd buy it.

Back when there were only four chapters I thought the end boss of the fourth chapter, or at least the place we fought him, was the thing in the lore that turned out to be the end boss of chapter ten.

Unironically the addition of a sprint animation is a huge selling point for me.

I wish I liked PoE. I really do. The itemization owns.

I just don't like that builds are basically one spammable, and there's no nightcrawler-style unlimited teleport. That latter one has killed a lot of ARPGs for me, really. D2 remaster better have fast casting sorc port or I'm broken forever.

Yeah, I've played a lot of PoE and it's a Good Game, to be sure - but it's never quite going to scratch the Marvel Heroes itch for me.

Like, there's something cool and satisfying about putting together a screen-clearing 6-link uber-skill, but ultimately every build is going to come down to some variation of "spam your one really good AoE a billion times a second over and over" in a way that just isn't very flavorful compared to all the cool ways Marvel characters eventually reached the level of speed-teleporting-screen-clearing chaos.

Dominus: Revenge for exiling you. Also he's a jerk and a mass-murderer.
Malachai: Threat to all existence, and thus to you. Also he's a jerk and a mass-murderer.
The Beast: Collateral damage. Technically innocent.
Various Gods: In your way. Also tend to be jerks and/or mass-murderers.
Kitava: God of hunger; threat to anything edible. Also a huge jerk and literal god of murder.

The comedy answer is, as always, "because they explode into showers of purps and legendaries, duh."
