Eh, we've barely seen what it is, and from the recent interviews, that's still in the game in some fashion.
But the other changes they've made like a living, breathing Gotham and a story that takes place over the course of several nights with a lot of actual detective work is definitely something we've been asking for.
The only failed GaaS is Anthem. Jury's still out on this game. Literally every other "we'll just keep adding stuff" game winds up successful. Destiny, Division, No Man's Sky, Street Fighter V, Sea of Thieves...all of them.
Fallout 76? That took a major restructuring though.
Sea of Thieves as well.
People aren't going to be happy when Hawkeye comes and they can't afford his battle pass, despite the seemingly "generous" free passes potential credits, because they weren't playing.
That and just more of the same content isn't going to please players even if they drop in to see Hawkeye.

Lmao you're right. No Man's Sky and Destiny had massive launches, even if post launch early reception was mixed. Sea of Thieves wasn't as big but it was still pretty substantial. Street Fighter V was successful as far as fighting games typically go.
Still, I can't see Square Enid just dropping the game. Personally it has a long ways to go before I'd pick it up, though.
I mean I haven't played in three weeks and I have enough credits. They actually gave a bunch of points on these challenge cards to users for free a few weeks ago as a mea culpa and that earned me a bunch of credits in one go.
Live games seem like such a gamble. Not sure when studios are going to figure this out. Do they have the potential to make a ton of money? Sure. But I feel their flop potential is way higher.
These games need to come out on time. Avengers feels like its 3 years late to the party, just like the MMORPG rush, the Hero Shooter rush, and now the GAAS Looter Shooter rush.
It takes so long for these games to come together, if they aren't doing anything truly innovative just being another in the same vein of other games isn't enough. Those other games are much more content rich and polished in comparison. They have their work cut out for them to turn the game around

this game should have just launched alongside next-gen systems and been a little more content complete... i like the game but it is an absolute chore to play on PS4 with constant and sluggy loads, and you really need that stable higher framerate. i feel like next-gen versions will bump this game up from a 7 to an 8 just on quality of experience, and then they can go higher from there with good content drops
Good chance that Spider-Man is the last hurrah for this game, after that the support is dropped. also good chance they will go dark and postpone any future content.
i´ve said it before and i will say it again, this game is broken beyond repair.
Jesus Christ what a list of things to fix for a game that took so much time and money to make.
Game is poorly done and completely soulless. Nothing about the game makes you feel like an Avenger or a hero. The loot is awful and the cinematic view of the game is meh. I felt Anthem all over again at launch and this game ain't recovering at all.
Yeah so that players can see the exclusive stuff other platforms get in game. What can go wrong?
Thank god. I mean, it might be bad, but I'm so done with that system at this point, so I'm happy to see a change rather than these devs copying Rocksteady again. Let them try their own thing.
Yeah, feels like corporate greed took over again.
Same mistake EA (Battlefront, Anthem) and Bethesda (F76) made: Forgetting that there are only 24hrs per day and people can only play so many massive GaaS games at the same time. For most that number is 1.
Game has to be either exceptionally great or go viral (in a positive way).
Avengers is neither great nor made any positive headlines. So it's gonna disappear.
Crystal Dynamics may have something up their sleeves but so does the rest of the AAA industry (Destiny, CoD, Fortnite etc.).
There wil also very likely be another Fall Guys/Among Us by the time Avengers is fixed/gets a meaningful content drop.
It's just super weird that Squenix/CD saw how EA fucked up (Anthem, Battlefront), correct course (Fallen Order, Squadrons, Apex F2P) and still went down the Anthem route with this.
Implementing cross-play would help the player base that's there, whether or not more players come back.
Knowing intuitively that their exclusivity and co-promotion deals are likely the biggest hurdle to that step don't make me inclined to have any goodwill for the title.

User Banned (2 Weeks): Hostility and Derogatory Language
Where'd that cuck who told me to buy a PS4 if I wanted Spider-man!? How about I leave it in digital limbo and just deny you a sale instead?
No it wouldn't. You have to see how their MP is designed to know that it is a complete mess.
Matchmaking is based on each mission / difficulty. To get players in your group, other people have to manually queue in that specific quest/mission and there a lot of them. There is no central hub where parties can be made before going out into these missions which is what they should have done.
It was already hard to find a group before and now with lower player base.
I enjoyed my time with the game but I don't foresee myself coming back without some pretty substantial overhauls. I wish them the best though.
Campaign was fun. The service part was extremely lacking though. Copy paste objectives and rooms, even when you swap maps. The combat was enjoyable. Got Thor to max, leveled a couple others to 50 but then just stopped.
Ah well. The campaign gave me my Avengers fix.
Ah well. The campaign gave me my Avengers fix.
I feel like Destiny had the same thing happen with The Taken King expansion, but then again Destiny
always felt very populated.
Defo learned my lesson not to buy GAAS games at launch after Anthem and Division amongst others. Plus the beta for Avengers didn't strike much hope for the full game and next gen is right around the corner. If and it's a big if, they manage to make this somehow great, I'll bite when it drops in price next generation. Until that time ever comes I just don't care for it. I need to see actions not words. EA are still promising Anthem is going to be something more and that's a dead duck. Of course these things take time, especially in the world we currently live in, but it's nigh on impossible to turn the tide after the damage has been done.
I have yet played the game (despite being a fan of looter game, I prefer playing as custom protagonist instead of fixed one), but I'm curious why games in the genre keeps repeating the same mistake of having lackluster end game.
You think by now dev had enough titles in the market to take note from to avoid making the same mistakes....
