Holy poo poo, even accounting for time total after release, I would be stunned if the Avengers game made more with it's goofy huge budget.

Multiple friends tried to get me to play that game and insisted it was "actually really good!!" so I looked at a gameplay video and now I completely dismiss their Gaming Opinions

There's a really simple test. You ask them if Marvel Heroes was good fun. They say yes, you can trust them. They say anything else, and their Gaming Opinions don't matter.

Unless their name is ICR. Then, their Gaming Opionions are always Suspect.

PAM PAM PARAAAAM!

I enjoyed Avengers for its campaign story for exactly one playthrough but I could never in good conscience recommend it to anyone unless I knew they were relatively big fans of the source material and if it was on an easily digestible sale for like 5 bucks.

I really liked Kamala in the game, she was fun. :kiddo:

It is always Friday night, motherfuckers

It was kind of ok if you just did the story. It was pretty polished and had mostly ok combat and wasn't very long. It was certainly not good enough to carry it past that though. However many copies it sold, nobody was going to buy a bunch of cosmetics and DLCs and stuff, which they definitely did for MH.

I'm playing a lot of Warframe lately which is not unlike MH if you played MH on a lot of sketchy hallucinogens.

Look, the setting and plots make perfect sense when viewed through the lens of Eternalism.

And a lot of orbital grade peyote.

quote:

But things may be about to change. Youtuber SlightStardust recently got the chance to speak with a group of fans that are trying to resurrect Marvel Heroes Omega from its ashes via server emulation. While its not yet fully returned to its former glory, it is possible to run around the game world with various characters, use some of their abilities and try various cosmetics.

The team are working on the game consistently with the hope of returning it to a fully playable state. Obviously this is a non-profit project by passionate fans who simply want to play the game. In the video SlightStardust shows off rudimentary gameplay that has a 2023 timestamp, showing that is is not old footage and is in-fact up and running. There’s also instructions on how to access the server emulator if you want to try it out for yourself.

Omega? Nonsense, bring back the good version of the game!

If I can't zip around the map at a million miles per hour, then it's not Marvel Heroes.

They have access to older builds of the game as well, all the way back to 1.10

I fear it's going to end up the same way as many other fan projects do. That is to say, the hammer will come down only once the work is done and the project starts to get some wider attention.

My first impression is that this is some half-baked dream doomed to fail. But, the City of Heroes fan revival has been a 110% success, so who knows.

if they actually get private servers for MH to be fully functional again, i might cry. leading Groot Force was the only thing grounding me for a difficult part of my life, keeping me social and doing something instead of just wallowing in despair and depression. im doing a lot better now, but. those were rough years.

it'd be really great to have the game around again and be able to share it with people i've met in the years since shutdown who are like. big parts of my life now

and then i get to tell them they be qualifyin fer cabin boy now
