You tell me I didn't build that?

I'll have you know I worked my fingers to the bone to get where I am today.

Hitman continues to be fun, Im going to buy 3 soon so I get all the maps.

I can't figure out how to get in this drat DNA Virus lab, and I took out the two marks already :(

The lab is cool at first but each subsequent time I replay that level I wish I could just check it off my list. Either I'm missing something, or there's not too many ways to actually deal with the virus. There are a number of ways around the map though, follow the map and see if there are places you can't get to or haven't been yet. There's at least one mission story that gets you access: try looking in the morgue, next to the chapel, there should be a scientist in there, you can grab their costume and keycard. There are a couple other ways to get access once you know where to look.

When the music fades in and you realize that its Proof of a Hero playing in the last %15 of the fight...oh man... it just gives you the extra strength to endure. What an emotional high. All time top 5 gaming moment for me.

Since Rise just came out I can pivot on this to say that the transition into Proof of a Hero on the Sunbreak final boss is incredible.

I thought it was a really weird time to release the game but I'm not in marketing.

I felt like I had visibility on the game as far as advertising goes, but I was already interested in it.

It was marketed to me - someone that likes both XCOM and Marvel and has a Steam account.

"Let's be positive! Let's start a fire!"

Look the only substantial knowledge I have on the Harry Potter series at all are the Fantastic Beast movies, but actually reading the IGN review, I have pieced together that you play as a Mass Effect biotic fighting against dudes in tin-can armor, goblins, or spiders, and that the framerate is "inconsistent" (I am not sure if we are talking like... "inconsistent" in the minor dips sense, or "inconsistent" in the "this runs like PS3/360 Dragon's Dogma).

... you know what, I haven't played Dragon's Dogma in awhile, maybe I should just play a Sorcerer on that

My experience with the marketing was the initial announcement in 21, and I'm fairly certain they said it was going to be a March 22 release. After that I didn't really hear much until just before releasing it. So maybe it kept getting delayed until they finally had a ready game in December.

Glad they’re optimistic about it. It’s definitely a niche game. I don’t expect a lot of overlap from most Marvel Fans to Strategy games with deckbuilding.

From the comments I’ve seen online, people who haven’t tried the game find the card aspect offputting.

I’m hopeful they’ll see another surge of sales when the DLC is fully out.

Game is real good though and I wish I had more people to talk about it with.

Imma be real. Marvel xcom but it’s a deck builder and it has Joss Whedon dialogue is not exactly appealing these days especially after all the Marvel fatigue.

No but it should have a randomised cards tower mode. I'd play the poo poo out of that.

I'm moderately interested in Midnight Suns, but the last four Firaxis games were all buggy as hell, and Civ 6 really left a bad taste in my mouth, so I'm just going to wait for a sale.

Count me among the folks that had zero interest on Midnight Suns because of the card aspect. I'll grab it in 18 months when the complete edition is like $30 and even then it's only because a handful people here have said that it's really good

For some reason I keep having this glitch where there is a flickering pixel next to Caretaker's right eye, it's funny

The other big one I can think of is upon defeating Crossbones in a mission where I slammed him into a wall, he T posed on me

It's just such a classic theme and it's used so sparingly that it never gets old.
