Really been in this thread whole time mutliple user names lol. Was always begging for mutants though because I really did grow up loving X men and asking friends "what one power would you have" then we would pretend to be x men together. Never really " who is wolverine". Also why again Heroes was so fire.
Wish Heroes had a video game
Heroes season 1 watching week to week was crazy
Spider man had air and web combos . When you remove that and gadgets from the game what do you have . The best wolverine games of past had air combos . I’ve never seen a game that has a focus on combat not do a walk through of the combat they are supposed to be selling you and rather than ask questions a month away from release just say “ we good “ . What I’m asking isn’t crazy . Doesn’t have to be crazy Devil may cry level but it looks bare bones so far
"Spiderman but stripped down" was my impression of this game the moment it was announced because no gadgets and Wolverine isn't as agile as Spiderman. All I'm saying is it's not fair to compare it to DMC/Ninja Gaiden when this isn't that type of game - it's more Spiderman/Sleeping Dogs/Batman. It's not fair to say "these games from 20 years ago did this, why doesn't Wolverine?" when it's not even trying to

I don't think Origins had aerial combat like you see in those action games. I see controls for it on Google's AI but every gameplay I've seen, Logan is fighting them on the ground

Right like what air combos was Wolverine doing in the past
I think a ninja gaiden style game would be amazing though.
Now an X-men game where Colossus and Gambit , Jean can combine abilities and help Wolverine levitate is an option though.

I am not expecting it to be DMC or Ninja Gaiden level at all. I am saying those games have air combos and combos. I mentioned those games more to say if they had a superhero skin on them they could do crazy sales too because they have an in depth combat system

I just want to see if it gets a little deeper. I am not expecting him to dart all around in air. I am saying 17 years later you expect a bit more. If all the claws operate the same no status effects. All the costumes operate the same no status effects. Take downs with Jean, Sabertooth or Mystique are cool. But can they make it last a full 20 hours / replay and if so how best will they do it.
I am saying some superhero games sell well with very basic systems to the game because of the hero itself. Part of what I am again saying there is let other companies again get shots at certain heroes because they would do amazing.
Sifu is like daredevil or batman. When you keep hero games in the hands of one developer they dont take the elements of all these games dropping.

I am saying best ways to keep combat fresh for 20 hours any game no open world. Where yes there is a skill tree we will 100% see Beserker barrage and other movies. Black and white or grey style is cool.
In previous games different enemy types. Invisible enemies to use scent help . some sort of launcher or ability to grab people. Environmentals are cool.
Between this , Onimusha and Phantom Blade Zero seeing different approaches to essentially hack and slash . All various systems.
But often games with combat systems can at least learn from each other for the future so that it leads to better games rather than companies solely learning from themselves and making little progress over many years
Its why I have mentioned Shadow of the Colossus on scale of boss fights like sentinnels, hulk ultimate destruciton, wolverine origins, ninja gaiden , devil may cry, final fantasy xvi boss fights. Because when you get into new game plus or asking a player to replay the game is there a level of skill to what is being done or is it just a power fantasy to mass kill enemies after a first tedious run of button mashing and low effort.
I kind of apply this to all or many hack and slash though. To me it would be cool if some of the suits had different abilities or if the claws had different status effects to those they hurt with better enemy ai or ability to grab the bodies of the deceased and use them as a weapon or something. Either way its an experience
But applauding Insomniac but not other devs when if they had a superhero skin their gameplay systems themselves are much more developed is what I am getting at.
All preview gameplay is thankfully only ACT 1 so makes sense why it is very tutorial or simplified. they aren't trying to show late game things. Later game when you gain many abilities we will see more mechanics laid out. I just think gamers being hypercritical dont have cinematic games they love that follow the formula
Trying to think of the most universally loved one and its likely God of War with even then since its been 8 years of seeing it some are okay on it because its been utilized in other games too.
Witcher 3 probably most loved on action rpg side but as stated that is a lot of rolling and status effects. Hope witcher IV combat feels a bit more smooth bu tthere is dodging and other options just not fully there yet but do like the layers to it and choice
funny thing is it could actually be a good game if it was similar to the ps2 game
looking at the comments and how has this game become an anti-woke thing
nazis confuse me
Nigga…give it a f***ing break already. Nobody cares about that s***.
I had stopped responding. I was just responding to the last ones that asked for clarifications. I get it no one cares

Weighing on the developers mental health
. The sales going to come through they arent going to care about none of the sassy tweets online about various things. Communications director I am sure is getting spammed but the game they know what they are making. They got to be able to take the jokes and feedback. Especially when its a hero game. No one is personally attacking them by making jokes about what has been shown
Wolverine again as I have mentioned is getting critiqued how xbox games have been this entire generation and some nintendo games of being hyper critical. No matter how much a game does sometimes its just not your taste and that is okay. But when something is made for the largest common denominator and viewed as less niche and it just presents poorly because it is showing only intro sections with very limited previews yeah it will get push back
Doesnt matter people will buy the game.
looking at the comments and how has this game become an anti-woke thing
nazis confuse me
pirat nation I have blocked they are a kind of more right wing gamer page so their comments are insane. Also people love to think insomniac is woke millenial writing so they hating on it more because they see pictures of the staff with a high women count and trans people
sadly not the woke where there is a high amount of black people or non white on staff because like most game companies white , gay trans bi is okay but non white isnt
But on an actual level it is sad that game discussion has become less talking about mechanics and instead woke vs non woke combined with console wars. People dont actually talk about the game anymore at all. That is why I talk about the game and gameplay. Because thats how I appreciate games. I am not posting tweets saying "hey look at this " . I am talking about the game. I will eventually play the game. I am glad people are hyped about the game. There is no game on here where I am just doing their promotion and am not talking about the mechanics, gameplay and elements of the game. thats the point of a forum. I am not here to say "preorder now or cancel your preorder ".

I’m just saying, you’re dragging it.
I’m just saying, you’re dragging it.
Oh yeah I get it. My point has been said. The point at large was simple its not just hate or whining to talk about the game mechanics based on previews and gameplay. the hate online is over gassed. I am not hating on what will surely be a 8-9 rated game with award nominations and awards won. Insomniac still a great developer and one of my friends from Netherrealm left Netherrealm to work there.
do hope they get to work on something other than heroes after Spider Man 3 though the got to give it a minute break so they can mix it up and learn new things to reinvent what they do
s*** only gets dragged out when people create personal attacks, message me off of here and say I cant talk about the game because I will never play it or act like I am hating when I have been in the thread saying I will play it for 4-5 years
previews look just okay but will still play it
I can’t wait to be playing wolverine on September 15th!
I hope Sony sends you a gift card or something for all this propaganda lol
