The 5th looter shooter, the 5th star of controversy, an Avengers story, and 2 knives sunk deeply in this games heart that I believe will kill it dead forever. This game won't bounce back. It can't. Here's why.

Hello, quick question when u mentioned what u think of deus ex franchise
K
Wassup White light. Really love ya videos. Listening to it as I write this but could you PLEASE do me a favor when you get a chance. Just take a look at some of my videos and give me some feed back. I Greatly appreciate it man
too much money lost
I hope to god Deus Ex is revived, I played Mankind Divided and had an amazing time despite the length
“You can’t customize these characters iconic costumes”
Injustice 2 glaring from a distance.
Marvel are some assholes when it comes to character customization in their games, while DC doesn't really care.
Injustice 2: Visible Confusion
That's such a fun game and I enjoyed the story...
THIS. Avengers and Marvel Heroes both tried to be loot and gear games where the loot has no visual effect on your character and just... Just... WHAT?!
@@MattAlbie yup that's what made loot pointless for me. I wanna see my character visual grow and morph as I progress.
Deus Ex fans: " I never asked for this."
What a shame
*lip smack*
I read it with growling voice..
I can hear his voice wtf
@@ShatteredGlass916 You have a secret augments installed ;-)
I will always read this in the voice of Jensen. Just one of the laws of the universe that.
It's a strange feeling when you look at a product and you think to yourself: "This is completely devoid of soul". Its artstyle is non existent, yet graphically it's a good looking game.
Art style is right there though. I felt the story was fitting given how it brings nastalgia to Saturday Morning cartoons of the early 90s and I enjoyed that. No other Looter game has a story that complex. Division 2 is told through comms, Destiny 2's story is a joke really... don't get me started on Godfall. It felt like playing through a comic issue playing M:A.
@@FatalFist but the story has so many problems, first how does Kamala take a picture with the avengers if we never seen it?
@@j.d6009
no it's because the character design it's shit and a bad rip off of the mcu,
and then here's the thing about the mcu that everyone is saying since marvel now.... "FUCK OFF MCU" no one want that in the games and comics;
marvel future revolution look a lot more like the comics(faces costumes) and surprise no one is complaining and it's a fucking ios game
Not an unfamiliar feeling, sadly.

"Natasha has a slav squat." no she don't. the heels aren't on the ground. funny how the Russian woman does a Western Spy squat.
Squats on toes break your bones
@@reality_is_sin That's not really a concern for slav street gang as they just sit in the position, not doing exercise. And that is the way they do it, with heels on the ground. So either it's actually just *a* squat and that's a coincidence that Russian character does the pose or the devs did effed the meme up by doing not enough research. Obviously I'm not presenting it as a possible additional knife to the game, I'm just clarifying that it's not the slave squat
@@Tim_Belay I was referring to the lyrics in a hardbass song tbh lmao

"Loading screens so long, you'd think MauLer coded them."
Daaaaaaaamn.
That is most definitely not a roast, considering MauLer calls himself the "long man"
@@rudolfambrozenvtuberOh, It IS a roast but not of Mauler.
I watch both channels and I feel they would regularly agree on each other's critical perspectives of the respective media they create content on.
Haven't played the game, but your telling me Tony Stark, a guy who freakin' write his own AIs, creates tons of robot, and is an f-ing billionaire/millionaire/somethinginmyhaire doesn't know how to make a good password let alone code his own password manager with quanumn particle sync across devices for password transfer security?
Yeah, this is shit.
Yeah, you are telling me the guy who creates fricking VISION and ULTRON, the most advanced sentient beings by humans, can't ensure his security?
It's like when Kate Kane was like "Password's still Alfred right?" when that shit would be so easy to crack
I think it actually fits the character in a weird way

After watching the video: "This game is a soulless cash grab garbage"
Hilarious, I died to stage 4 lung cancer thanks to laughing so hard
@@tammushican4823 M8...do you need a hug?
@@Reseng yes, I'm sorry
I bought it. i played it for an hr during the beta. i was left speechless by how gobshite it was. i hoped. i HOPED that the intro, would be the entirety of the game, despite being cringey and a bit wacky, it felt... fun, at the very least.
They could of removed the multiplayer elements entirely, focused on the story and beefed it up, and made the game entirely like the very first mission, and it would of been fun. The reason we hardly saw any more of the game up until release other then the first mission was because there is nothing more. the game is completely fucking soulless. there is absolutely nothing fun about a grindy looter shooter, which doesn't know what it wants to be other then a black hole for wallets. I laughed my ass off at the i am iron man pasword scene. i thought it was so cringey and dumb, and within an hr i'd backed out of the game. i wish i could refund it on steam somehow
I'm guessing as Whitelight said, the combat gets better with mastery. but it really just wasn't fun for me and i love beat em ups/shooters. god of war or borderlands any day. but by god, everything stuns, and everything takes hits that they shouldn't and everything is a fucking repeat enemy even within the first 2 levels and warzone. Its so disgusting. there is no innovation, and simply to high a dominant strategy of doing a singular combo or action. that or your forced into the "dodge scenario" that whitelight talked about. - You don't make a game only get fun when you've played it enough. a game should be fun from the start, and become more fun with mastery. its clear they added so much stuns, and additional enemies in order to increase difficulty (and the theme of playing a super hero) but it just, doesn't work.
I don't even feel bad that they still haven't made a profit from this game. Even when the game was just announced and in early development, there was already proof of how to make financially successful superhero games. From the Batman Arkham series, and Spiderman PS4 (yes I know that Arkham games like Origins and Knight have mixed reviews. But there's no denying they made A LOT of money. Which at the end of the day is all companies care for). Yet despite all the evidence laid out for companies like this, they still went for a generic live service gimmick with the Avengers logo
This game. When you wanted Earth's Mightiest and you get Avengers Assemble instead. 'Nuff said.
That is the best analogy of this situation.
Earths mightiest heroes is a hidddn gem
Still prefer Earth's mightiest heroes over Avengers Assemble
Earth's mightiest Heroes made basicly every character likeable, they got every character especially the villains comic accurate and great, there aren't any more comic accurate marvel characters like in EmH:Dr Doom, Ultron, Red Skull, Loki, Kang and many more. They also showed me many villains I didn't knew and love now:Baron Zemo, Abomination, Enchantress, Crimson Dynamo and basicly the entirety of A.I.M. Plus, they made Captain Marvel likeable.
It's like when you want Teen Titans, but instead you only get Teen Titans Go.

And the fact we still don't get another Iron man solo games proofs how much potential it can make at least a good iron man games and break another curse bad Marvel game like Spider man ps4. It's really suck we don't get an open world iron man game yet.

There are Iron Man games. They’re called ‘Zone of the Enders’.
Nah, that's more Gundam than Iron Man
The Infamous series is a better Iron Man simulator, only without the suit.
Vesperitis no, they're not.
They really had a chance to make a New-Gen “Marvel Ultimate Alliance” and didn’t go for it

We're still playing that instead of this for a reason
@@Gemidori who is we? That game despite being better died and fell out of public consciousness just as fast.
@@gummyboots actually no it didn’t, just because it’s not a live service?
@@Ivan-xk4uy Plenty of single player games that are older than MUA 3 are way more relevant. Even console exclusives. People were just excited to have another game in the series but it wore off and people stopped caring. Even after all these years they can't write a story or animate cutscenes that are anywhere close to the same league as MUA 1.
Exactly
18:47 - "In the comics, Tony wasn't very funny."
Using modern comics is like picking on a slow kid.
Wasn't he murdered by Captain Marvel and replaced by a robot clone or something like that?
@Mikhail G Iron Man was my favourite Marvel character long before the movies.
I'd read a few of my dad's massive American comic collection. And I personally owned one... yes one issue of an Iron Man comic. Also one Spiderman and one Wolverine.
I'd also played the Sega Mega Drive Avengers game, where the playable characters are Iron Man, Captain America, Hawkeye and Vision.
No that’s true, though, Tony was more of a serious character before the MCU. He made the occasional quip but usually he was a standard hero. I think the only exception was Ultimate Iron Man
Stark used to be a suave sophisticate in the comics that existed before the MCU, think Clark Gable mixed with Howard Hughes-post MCU he just became an RDJ wannabe.
@@Gnidel no he was put in a coma and it's an ai
that mauler joke was a 10/10. shame this couldn't have just been a dedicated iron man game
Agreed, what a fucking joke
I've never liked Kamala. I can't stand the "omg I'm geeking out" character.
Yep, even tom holland's spiderman has this problem for me
@@TheRealUnkn0wn_289 but even then, Holland still made it less cringy, and I do enjoy his performance as Peter
It's just a case of the fanboy/fangirl character being really easy to go too far and ruin the charm.
Basically, you should make a character who just happens to be a big fan of whatever thing or person, instead of making being a fan their main personality trait.
Marvel puts her in EVERYTHING.
Hey Marvel! Nobody cares. We don't like her. Simple as.

Used to watch him back in the day to hear out the other side critiques on some media I enjoyed but all he did was point of point out basic shit and when things don't act like they do irl, doesn't talk about themes or really anything. Mf just live streams so his audiences can donate him that sweet sweet cash.

Iron Man in Movies: "I'm the smartest billionaire that managed to create an efficient time machine"
Iron Man in Avengers game: "My password is -I am Ironman-"
I couldn't believe that actually was his password. That's something an avengers parody would do.
Then again, in Iron Man 3, he did announce his home address to "the Mandarin" through the paparazzi - purposely risking both his and Pepper's life in the process.
For being one of the smartest characters in Marvel, he sure knows how to be an idiot at times.

To be fair, a game would be nice enough. You know, something that's fun.
*yawn*
brutal legend is a perfect of this for me. its a flawed game which getting the hang of the RTS parts is not that fun but its so unique and well themed that I am willing to get past the initial hurdle of the RTS sections to enjoy it more
The video just started and we’re already talking about Spiderman: Web of Shadows lmaooo. A real tribute to Whitelight’s dedication.
Marvel Avengers: *breathes*

Bounce back? Their game was dead on arrival. They were charging people $60 for a service game with barley any content that played and looked like a glorified HD casual mobile game. The people who gave a shit, played it for the story and already moved on to better games. It’s up to Square to accept the loss and take the L.
@Adolfthejewbaka _ "Gaming will be dead" my ass, it's a multi-billion-dollar industry with amazing and massively profitable products releasing every month, gaming isn't going to die until civilization breaks down. 10 bad products out of 100 dosen't mean shit.
@Adolfthejewbaka _ You have to be delusional to believe quality gaming is dying. Masterpieces have been coming out year after year and we still have more awaiting so long as there are people with a passion for gaming or game design.
@klaus “Quality games” aren’t dying, they’re simply becoming a little more rare as the big triple A companies have saturated the market with games that attempt to capitalize on popular trends and force monetization practices of all breeds to be implemented to satisfy their greedy hunger for money. Hopefully people will stop falling for these predatory practices and the companies that were once popular will be forced to make a good game yet again to restore any kind of faith in them.
@Adolfthejewbaka _ "There hasn’t been a masterpiece since 2013 you muppet." Your nostalgia is showing. There's be great games releasing the past few years

Marvel’s Avarvels is one of the most boring, repetitive, and disinteresting games I’ve ever played. And this is coming from someone who liked Ghost Recon: Wildlands.
It had a cool esthetic, I just wish that your choice of which branch of the cartel you took down would influence the story and how the cartel would operate. Like if you took out security they would be weaker, if you took out influence there would be more rebels etc.
You (like me) played ghost recon: same mission for 5 hours wildlands and thought this was boring? Now this is a personal connection I need, to not buy this game, that I didnt know was out until this video, and don't see anyone playing, and didnt even know it was announce, etc etc.

I remember actually being curious about the game's story until the I Am Iron Man password bit. Once I went, "HAHA, WHAT!?" the immersion faded away. The game's story was just so... Standard.
Not sure they'd be allowed to, any time soon, but I believe Rocksteady would be the perfect fit for developing a Captain America game. You've seen what they can do with Arkham. I'd even venture to argue that they're meant to make a game for characters like him, The Winter Soldier and Blade. It's a shame we're gonna have to wait a long time, at the very least, to see something like that if it ever happens at all.
"The load screens are so long you'd think MauLer coded them"

@@DinoDave150 eh,warframe is good. That can stay. But I agree with you
It could end up similar to how only an handful of MMOs and MOBAs remain viable while the rest die off due to people gravitating to the ones who do their concept well and have large playerbases/communities.
It's not even a looter game when the loot is invisible, that's just lazy devs.
“Hey it’s me Raycevick”
I’ll admit I was listening to this in the background and I thought it was him

I thought this was gonna be about the films, didn't even realise there was a game...
I greatly appreciate you talking about the lack of an art style, because I feel this game is the epitome of the _Marvel brand's current visual homogeny._ There's a compulsion as of late to blur the lines between all media these characters appear in and, as an unapologetic fan of the classic comics, I find it increasingly disturbing. It's almost trying to erase the past.
They took the colourful, long-standing character designs and ground them down into uncreative, hyper-practical pap. I don't mind some extra details added to a classic design (e.g. the OG Arkham Asylum batsuit), but these designs ruin the very spirit of the characters. Like you say, *there's no soul.* There's not a hint of Kirby, Byrne or Steranko or any artist that made this universe so appealing.
As for the extra outfits, I'm disappointed they didn't just give players costumes relating to the characters' histories. With all the hero worship from Kamala, you'd think they _wouldn't_ embarrassed to do so. Probably would've charged out the wazoo for them, but still. Think of how many people who could have been introduced to *Wolf Cap* or *'90s Thor* or *Joe Fixit Hulk* or *First Appearance Black Widow* or literally any of the *classic Iron Man armours,* straight from the comics. Oh the despair. -____-
They actually had a lot of classic suits in the game...almost. They got close to a bunch of them anyway, but really only Iron Man got suits that looked fairly on point. The "classic" Hawkeye for example was absolutely RUINED when they didn't give him his folded top boots. Instead we got the MCU-esque Kevlar weave looking pants tucked into combat boots. Like....how you gonna have the eyes and the purple and all that...but NOT have the swashbuckly boots too? Sad.
@@DJMarcO138 Exactly - Compromise shows their embarrassment. I say go hard or go home. *Embrace* the comic book costumes or don't bother. It's the same with Cap's head wings and buccaneer boots; the latter works just as well for Hawkeye.
@@DoctorInk20
I understand the point, especially with cap. The lack of commitment for his helm makes it look stupid, it's not practical looking enough to be realistic or classical enough to be fantastical. Instead it's... just a weird looking bit of stuff on his head. This is for both movie cap and game cap, it's all shit.
I do like the wide raised collar for his fit though, that's not a bad addition. Or the roomier trousers, but then again female heroes don't get the benefit of getting roomy trousers...
@@fluidthought42 I've never been a big fan of Cap's helmet-mask. It works as a compromise for live-action media, but in any other medium, the classic winged mask can just work, though. It gives Cap a unique silhouette and there's that distance so that you don't have to worry about it looking odd on a real person.
The movie costumes have just gotten progressively worse; the _First Avenger_ suit was decent, but every version after is a disaster. I like the USO costume, though. Tweak it a bit, and that's a great live-action classic Cap.
I get where you're coming from with the roomier trousers, but part of the whole superhero aesthetic is the form-fitting clothes. Again, it works in something animated, be it male or female.
Also "wide, raised collar for his _fit"?_ Could you clarify? 😅
@@DoctorInk20
Roomier trousers are sort of a necessity for stuntwork unless you _fully_ commit to the classic spandex design like Alex Ross. And even then, you might fall into Batman outfit problems (can't turn neck, can't do kicks beyond push kicks etc; there's a reason why Patterson Batman had roomy trousers).
As for the fit, I mean overall style. The roomier neck avoids the discontinuity of a form fitting outfit that has no room for your head to go through, and allows the actor to turn his head (so no Keaton Batman for Captain America). Simple small design elements that allow actors to breathe and be comfy while on set in costume, instead of miserable and exhausted.
2020 is hilariously bad. At least we got Hades, Deep Rock Galactic and Ghost Of Tsushima this year though.
Demon souls remastered: Am i nothing to you?
2020 been gud to us gamer boys
Hated Valhalla, but I'm enjoying Demon's Souls Remake and Doom Eternal, FF7 was fun too.
I also really liked Elderborn, Hedon and Ultrakill.
@shortythecat Yeah Ghostrunner was cool
Why is there a cardio with no hands joke in my Whitelight video this is beyond my scope of comprehension
its kind of weird seeing the intro and going back to 2008 spider man web of shadows trailer and still remembering my reaction the the trailer.
It's a shame. I genuinely loved Travis Willingham's portrayal of Thor, and he's only in the story for a brief moment.
I get really tired of it quickly. He's been the voice of Thor in too many projects and it completely removes the humanity from him. The big chest voice Mighty God shit is so tiresome now after hearing it in over and over in animated series and the Lego games and it's down to the developers being completely out of touch with the character and just shoving the same Shakespearean cadence at him from an actor with a naturally Baritone voice that always sounds fake
I actually screamed when you showed Deus Ex at the start, it's been so long...
The fact that Deus Ex was put on hold indefinitely for this monstrosity still hurts. And then Whitelight goes and reminds me of it.
Hopefuly after cyberpunk square will be clued in to let them make another
@@klonoa450 I hope so too. Deus Ex is too good to be kept on ice for too long.
@@klonoa450 man i really hope Cyberpunk is similar to Deus Ex. That would be awesome
@@cryptox1469 now that's a thermonuclear bruh moment

They drug this carcass of a game along for 2 years. It didnt die last month when they announced it. It died at launch. Or at the very least after the black panther expansion when they had no future content in the pipeline lmfao.
Still can’t believe that Deus Ex 3 got canned for this sheiße game.
gut
At least now they know what to do if they want to fill up their coffers again. Unless they fuck it up too, of course. I wouldn't be surprised.
I thought 3 was mankind divided?
@@derekofbaltimore Nope there was another planned after that.
@@SolidSnake240 so wouldn't that be part 4?
Also why wouldn't they still make it?

This game really is "Ms. Marvel and the Avengers"
That sounds like a good game, but this game ended up being a Destiny clone with Melee and a story that’s part climate change denial and part Joe Biden propaganda
@@TheFlash-rh2el that's an odd combo
Cool idea.. Just rushed
The campaign is like this, but the mp is completely different
@@TheFlash-rh2el joe biden propaganda😭 what are you on
This game is so boring i got bored watching the gameplay in the video.
warframe so much better
Told myself the same, even Whitelight can't make this post mortem entertaining.
@@reapthewhirlwind6915 warframe was one of the most mediocre gaming experiences I've had, seriously I don't understand the insane hype. Is my taste objectively bad? Please explain why warframe is loved
@@Venomonomonom The game is free be and that is a lot of the initial appeal then the game entrals you with really well written world and characters. The gunplay is fun and the progression is palpable. You may feel like you've done everything but there is always a reason to do more
We should demand a Snyder cut to this game.
First of all, that Ad break was smooth, nice! And I love how you are playing on PC because there's been so many decrease on players on it but for me it looks good on PC.
Now I just want to say thank you for noticing and mentioning the good things about this game because they are just not mentioned behind all the cons of the game. Now I've had fun in the game, I keep playing it even to this day, had it since day 1 and I love it. I believe that this game has a lot of cons is true although I still love it. Simply because it's fun and tbh I enjoy the story, yes it might've clitchés or ridiculous scenes but I like it nonetheless. Perhaps it might be because we've never had an Avengers game and this is what I settled with or maybe because I just enjoy a fun and thrilling ride rather than a meaningful and emotional rollercoaster of a story. I believe the character development is lacking specially on Thor. Both Tony and Bruce were the biggest of the roster and quite frankly I like Kamala she wasn't bad at all. Black Widow needed more love and Cap too but he was death for more than half of the game so yeah. Thor just don't lol
Gameplay was amazing as you said with everyone. I have all my characters to the max PL 150 and I enjoy every single one of them. Btw Hulk's the best not Iron Man. In fact Iron man is my least favorite lol Hulk's just destroys everything on his pad and also they patched in an update where Hulk can no longer be staggered by small enemies so he's even more unstoppable now. Black Widow is my second favorite, she's just too good! Her mastery build can be tuned so beautifully and she is so agile and I can basically stay invisible and activate heroics consecutively! Kamala Khan is my third favorite. She's freaking awesome. I love her moveset and she's so strong too! Her attacks really feel that they hit hard and I love her Embiggen Heroic! Cap is my fourth favorite simply because he's shield throwing and kick is perfect for crowd controlling and I just love throwing his shield and fighting with him. Besides he's my favorite Avenger. Thor has what he doesn't have as character development he has as gameplay! I l love playing as Thor by throwing his hammer and his heroics. He really feels like a God! Finally Iron Man being my 6th favorite he has really good attributes and I love changing weapons with him and using them for respective enemies. I personally love his repulsors to do Headshots lol
Talking about Bugs and glitches yeah I've experienced my fair share of them but they keep updating the game every week and keep fixing bugs. I personally haven't encountered any bug that will prevent me from playing or to stop playing. They are temporal nuisance that doesn't really get relevant up until the point you restart checkpoint or leave the area. Villains being 2 only yeah that's disappointing and also the endgame lack is also disappointing but they are working on it so it is coming.
What really sold me and keeps me from staying and playing is the free DLC coming. At first I thought it was going to be just new characters and some new missions but from what I've seen there's more than just missions so that means the story is going to continue constantly with each DLC adapted to the respective new character. I find it odd you didn't mention the DLC coming I mean you did but just that.
I hope this game gets better and better and on the following months we will get more things to do, a story to follow and characters to play as and I hope they don't pull the plug because I am already hyped for Maestro and the future of the game. The gameplay is a very big important factor and they nail it on everyone and so far Kate's Bishop looks unique too. The game will eventually get New game plus so we are going to be able to play the story as our characters fully upgraded and Aim cloning labs which are the equivalent are coming too. I will stay in this game until its last breath because I want it to succeed...
I love the dedication and while i don’t play it as often i still do love it. I don’t really know why though
@@1Cent83 Yeah exactly the dedication despite all the negative feedback and bash they keep going and they haven't pull the plug and I hope they don't do it anytime soon. I want this game to last for years. Update on the characters' gameplay. By the time I wrote this comment Kate and Clint weren't released and my point still stands they both have uniqueness even though they are both archers they both play significantly different and I love it. In fact they are my 2nd and 3rd favorite characters. Clint is second and Kate is third. I can't wait to play Black Panther tomorrow! His gameplay looks so unique than all the other characters and awesome!
Agreed man i just feel really bad for the developers who worked their asses off only to receive blinded trashtalk whom half of the culprits had not even played the game.
