I just wanna main Squirrel Girl/Phoenix Wright, but god forbid I have fun in a fighting game.

Meanwhile, Combofiend gets to have his pet Spencer in the game because he says so.

If you just ignore the smoke and mirrors, they can actually be pretty fun.

Though the only ones I've played are Wolf Among Us and Tales From The Borderlands, which are well-regarded as the two best post-TWD Telltales.

MGS and Castlevania fans in Japan loving hate the pachinko too, because while pachinko in the west is just some thing we'll never get, in Japan it's understood as basically being exclusively for olds, so the fans in Japan are more directly being ignored.

People hate QTE boss battles already, that's a garbage idea.

Also, you can't just "switch engines" that's not how it works at ALL.

Also, that's not how different engines work. You don't have a different engine for each style of play you could have.

I still don't think you're realizing that it's a really bad idea that's already pretty common in games. And you still don't seem to understand what a game engine even is. I would just drop it if I were you before you make yourself look even dumber.

It sounds like you don't play many video games, since you're misunderstanding a lot of basic things, which makes it stranger that you'd be so adamant on "This is what game companies should do" based on a misinterpreted comment about Zelda.

By definition, pre-rendered graphics cannot be interactive. That's just an FMV game. Which is again, another idea that was tried and hated.

Uh... the pre-rendered backgrounds in the early Resident Evils would disagree. You certainly can't have the whole game be prerendered, but you can absolutely have elements.

I mean, the backgrounds themselves are not interactive.

Also, the pre-rendered graphics dude was talking about were straight FMV cutscenes.

Leo said "We fight as a team" and the description on the official video lists them as one entity, so I'm guessing it's a Noob Smoke situation.

That’s not entirely true. Namco owned the right to have mini games during loading screens for a long time, which is why ridge racer let you play Galaxian during loading in the early ps1 days but no one else could do that

That was a patent on loading an auxiliary game while loading the main game, not a copyright.

Some people at Marvel have said that if Spider-Man does well, they're not opposed to maybe the idea of a loosely connected game universe. Probably not like on the scale of the MCU, but Avengers Tower and the Sanctum Sanctorum being in Spidey are good seeds.

I also forgot to mention that the Classic suit comes in two flavors. One that was fixed by Peter and one that's still damaged from the prologue of the game.

Suit abilities:

Classic - Web Blossom AOE attack (Fixed), None (Damaged)
Advanced - Battle Focus (4x damage multiplier in combat)
Spider-Punk - Guitar riff AOE
Iron Spider - Unconfirmed, thought to involved extra legs
Velocity - Also unconfirmed, but Insomniac says it's in the name of the suit, so thought to be movement-based
Homemade - Unknown
Noir - Cut off enemy comms in stealth
Scarlet Spider - Holo-clones
Secret War - EMP that disables weapons
Spider-Armor - Bullet resistance
Homecoming - Calls in a clone to assist in combat, unlocks with hidden backpacks
2099 - Unknown
