A hero shooter, with marvel characters. Just what the world needed.

Eh, at least it's going to hurt Blizzard if it does well. Marvel slop is a super common IP that all the normies know (which is Blizz's core audience). They're already panicking about what PoE2 will do to Diablo's playerbase.

You could hurt blizzard a lot more by not playing WoW or overwatch anymore, just saying that out loud.

Yes, but normie retards want their slop and the only way you can get them off the Blizzard planation is to lure them to another slop farm.

Unfortunately I am mentally ill and grew up on my dad's comic book collection, so I will be downing this new cape slop like Ember at an all you can eat buffet. I cannot wait for it to fail to meet my expectations like Ember's belt buckle after an all you can eat buffet

Building off this, the reveal trailer was released for Ananta, and it looks like GTAO (the "A" stands for "Anime"):



If it has multiplayer, and they embrace streamers playing it, this could be a quick solution to chuubas that want to do GTAO RP without the GTAO.

All of this could be entirely fake and made of bullshots as well, but we'll just have to see! Still no release date, offline test in January, at some point they have to show people playing it for any period of time that isn't made for trailers!

...Is what I was about to end this with, but the website has more details, including Live2D Character Previews. How much money is NetEase putting in this again? And how many microtransactions will they need to stuff it with to justify operating costs?

Ananta looks pretty promising, from what I can see here. A distinctive, cartoonish style and presentation for an open-world crime game, the women look attractive, there seems to be lots of different things to do and combat looks pretty varied. Trailers are just trailers though, and I'm hoping their monetization isn't too cancerous since it's a FTP game and people are mentioning gacha elements.

I never really loved the Grand Theft Auto games. There's lots of stuff to do in them, but so much of what was on offer was never really "fun" or "enjoyable". I much preferred other companies' takes on the concept of Grand Theft Auto, like "Scarface" and "Sleeping Dogs". Hopefully Ananta ends up on that list too.

This Marvel Rivals game seems to be made by China, and the art style has sexy ladies - obviously designed more around the comics (pre-Turbo Gay era).

Could... it actually be good? I'm too addicted to Satisfactory but I'm curious to hear someone else's impressions.

Ill let you know when it finishes downloading.

My sperging about Luna Snow being in the game for some reason basically obligated me to give it a shot. Check the general thread if you have way too much time on your hands and want to give me MATI's

>Luna Snow
>Introduced in 2018

And this character isn't some blue-hair turbo-gayfem? This seems unbelievable.

Kpop Idol which might be worse. Pretty generic character honestly like no one had any clue what to do with her and her stupid "light and dark ice" nearly everyone else involved with her was far more interesting (while still not being that interesting)

White Fox was being set up as some sort of Punisher for the supernatural with an assassins lineage and accsess to the secret world via being a Gumiho (Korean Kitsune basically)

Aero was a confusing mess but it had ideas that a better writer could come back to (public hero secret identity like superman. her mother was her lex luthor.) but being forced into crossovers muddled any potential she had.

SwordMaster was an identity crisis every issue which i found amusing at least

I'm actually enjoying Marvel Rivals. Playing Mantis is fun. Bless the Adam Warlock players who keep rezzing me with the team up skill.
Game is very chaotic and just like Overwatch the other players keep trying to 1v6 my team.

I never thought of the potential an Animu GTA could have. As long as monetization is kept to cosmetic stuff and doesn't give the gameplay ball cancer, it could be good.

Already saw a few thousand people queued up for tomorrow a couple hours back, so I imagine shit is gonna be rough for the first while lol. GGG is already upping their server capacity after getting 1,000,000+ early access key redemptions.


edit: just checked again, and there are currently 9700 people queued with 13 and 1/2 hours to go before launch lmao

From what I've played, it is a far more fast paced Overwatch. There's a lot of variety in playstyles and I've quickly found that Moonknight has a stupid amount of damage.

I've also seen Wolvies run lobbies because they have so much hp when they go into regen mode. Melee in general are surprisingly not shit.

And the crowd goes mild.

It says a lot when the biggest borderlands content creators are still putting out borderlands 2 content regularly.
