It's funny that Bugs Bunny, the character basically synonymous with Warner Bros., isn't even a free character. That's like if Disney charged you money in Speedstorm to play as Mickey.
Well, on that Mario Kart mobile game, you had to pay to play as Mario lol
You can get Bugs for free for 3k fighter currency.
@@HighLanderPonyYT How long would it take to earn that much? Probably like 3 Months of non-stop grinding?
You either have a key character for free, or as the ultimate unlock.

Same thing.
You know your game flopped HARD if the negative impact was strong enough to scare another developer, Riot, to the point that they cancel their own platform fighter because they lost faith in the ENTIRE GENRE ITSELF.
Wait, really?! What kind of platform fighter were they working on?
@@CJ-ln5ov something in the vein of melee
Gonna be honest, I think that says just as much about Riot's insecurities if they're really wanting to scrap everything they've done just because one platform fighter isn't doing too hot.
they've like scraped hytale too or something so i'm not surprised, they want to keep doing the same china moba cash grab as always and even the new 2xko Game won't feature the cooler more underrated or unknown characters of league because they're insecure it wont do good if it's not a popular character@@HypeVoiceActing
You all are extremely dumb if you think multiversus isn't doing well. They are making bank. It's a huge success and none of y'all know what you're talking about. There's still 10 to 20 thousand players playing every day across all platforms. Multiversus is doing great.
I have a theory to this so WB spent so much money funding the Suicide Squad game that they forced the developers to make Multiversus as cash grabby as possible. I just blame WB for this.
Also I’d rather just pay the $60 full price like Smash than have this garbage.
Unlikely, they're still dumping money into the suicide squad game, it recently got another season.
Smash plays better than this trash anyways 😔
Wish the SS budget went to MVS. Would be much better for the $$ to go to this game
It doesn't matter how much money they make or lose on any particular project. You can buy WBD stocks. The only considerations at the executive level are those that maximize short-term profits.
To buy 6 characters it’s like $60 in multiversus
Every character except some dlc in smash are free through the actually fun and easily accessible campaign

Multiversus actin' like a public school over any kind of event: _Gimme money gimme money gimme money gimme money._
But, but... Unlocking characters by playing Smash Bros takes too much time! At least In Multiversus, you can pay and get them in no time. And I certainly don't feel scammed about this 🤑

Also, Multiversus is just broken. Ever since after the beta. And more so with each new character that's as balanced as cheezy poof pizza for breakfast.

I appreciate seeing comments like this that acknowledge that Player First Games *does* want to try and make this a good game but are constantly foiled by WB's meddling. It helps me realize that not everyone's hatred of the game is black-and-white
warner brothers probably thought they were gonna make so much money putting all this greedy trash into the game and it just flops hard as it should
I blame WB for pushing the monetization. The devs had good intent but WB ruinned the game.
I always blame the executives. Always. They get paid hundreds of times what the devs do and get the final say on everything, so they’re the ones who should shoulder the responsibility of success and the shame of failure.
Blame David Zaslav
Devs fucked up by slow down the gameplay
@Aquatj999 we live in a capitalist society; WB aren't making free games out of the kindness of their hearts, they want to make money somehow (and rightfully so). While I'm not totally excusing Warner, im sure they played some part but there are tons of freemium games out there that can make the publishers money AND not totally suck. I don't want to do it but I think the blame can be placed at PFGs doorstep pretty easily. Warner has honestly been crazy understanding with these devs; paying them to cook for an entire year while making zero dollars. That has to be a huge hit financially, so again, I'm not too surprised/upset that the monetization is nuts but it's honestly on PFG to make the game good enough that I WANT to spend on it. PFG dropped the ball on this one. Hard.
@@tuxedosfinest57 this comment perfectly sums up how I feel about the game. PFG tried but they blew it and no amount of characters people want will ever make me come back to multiverses

Yeah, he isn't at all correct with pretty much every single statement he makes in the video...
In reality, it only takes around 3-4 hours to get a single character and 6-8 hours for a new character.

How WB is still in business is beyond me.

Mostly because of their films and television shows. They do much better with those in comparison to their gaming department

If WB owned a racing horse, they'd cut off the front two legs and they'd say "you only need two to run"
WB's decisions over the last couple years have been baffling, to say the least. They're so wildly out of touch with so many of these animated projects, and canning all the ones we'd like to see. And don't get me started on the Flash movie either.

I find the thumbnail extra funny since this is the one time you could use the original picture of Tom since he's actually in the game
If this game’s future truly doesn’t exist, I have two hopes before it ends:
1. Season 2 happens and The Powerpuff Girls get added.
2. If/when it shuts down, we still keep access to Local Play like when the beta shut down. I doubt they’d give us full access to all characters and cosmetics again, but that would be cool.
Powerpuff girls has been leaked, but idk if it'll be on season 2. most likely season 2 will have: aqua man, beetle juice, and def samurai jack
I for sure want at least powerpuff girls before this game dies. I wish it could at least have Raven and Scooby-doo too. but who knows when they're gonna be added. the slowpace to add content is killing this game.
I don’t understand why y’all are saying the game is dying. It’s literally not lmao. The player count is pretty steady right now and the game is slowly getting better and the content is only going to increase.
They need to add Gwimbly ASAP

The fact that there's only 28 characters in the game makes it even worse. Heck, compare it to Smash Ultimate with 76 total unlockable characters (74 if you count Pokemon Trainer as 1 character), almost *triple* what MvS has in the base game.
With DLC and the Miis, that's like 87-89 characters. If you bought the passes and Pirahna Plant(As DLC) that's like a total of around $120 for 87-89 characters.

I really, REALLY wanted to like this game. Smash Bros with Looney Tunes and Superman and Batman and Scooby Doo etc is right up my alley. Setting up gags as Bugs Bunny and catching people off guard when the punchline lands is SUCH a dopamine hit for me.
But between all the grinding, the terrible hitboxes and balance issues, the connectivity issues, the unintuitive skill ceiling, and the absurd pricing for skins (Five Bucks for a Matrix filter or a hockey mask!?) I'm really struggling to stick around.
We've pretty much gone from becoming excited to get grinding experiences with MultiVersus and coming out liking it during it's beta period to now completely disowning it like all the hype was for nothing. And it turned out to be true once I was told MultiVersus is no longer worth it anymore.
This!!!! Your post perfectly represents my way of thinking when going into the full release. That I was going to stick with this game for a very, VERY long time, just for it to flop, fumble, and now not even interested in opening the game and look at the shop for 2 minutes. I wish this game was the best! I really mean it!
I do too, and now it's too late for that. ☹
AGREED
Nah, I’m liking it a lot. I came from the smash scene and comparatively it’s not a bad online experience at all. Imo the gameplay is as fun as smash and the balance issues are overstated. The network issues are nothing compared to smash.
It ain't microtransactions. Its macrotransactions
No kidding!
All of these microtransactions are definitely a WB mandate. There's NO way that PFG thought of locking every other character behind a paywall.
Microsoft and Sony dodged a bullet not acquiring warner bros games. Putting in effort and being innovative, instead of greedy, is against WB's religious views 😂 Moneyism4life
They’d probably be shut down by WBD instantly. Cuz that company is a siphon
Leave it all to smash and nick all star brawl, 2 games I did not have to grind that DAMN HARD to unlock simple things like characters.
Don't forget Rivals of Aether! Damn good base game with Steam Workshop support that lets you go crazy. Hell, the devs have even done a couple of competitions to allow fans to put their characters into the series on an official basis.
Yeah because you spent money on those games I haven’t spent a dime on multiversus and I already got/ am able to purchase I think 5 characters
Or more
If you spent 60 bucks for smash and got none of the characters and only had Kirby and had to grind for hours then that’s a horrible thing. But since it’s a free game I’m fine with this it’s better than getting characters in brawlhalla but the quests for stuff you have to buy to get like costumes is stupid and should be changed
@@Caketurtle7You start with 8 characters in the first and most recent game. Story mode is the only part which specifically has only Kirby at the beginning (assuming you have no DLC)
If you know what you're doing, unlocking all the characters, it may be tedious but only takes a few hours.
Every Smash game but the first has multiple "normal" ways to unlock characters as well.
This is exactly why big corporations shouldn’t have ANY input in how the game works or is made unless, for some reason, they’re directly involved with the development itself.
Stay in your lane and let the REAL effort do their thing.
I hate how accurate this is. Devs behind it probably had such great ideas, but WB seems to have screwed it all to fuck and back.
Nah stop it. Pfg are entirely fukn incompetent. WB is greedy sure, but pfg had no clue wtf they were doing and it was obvious
$260 to unlock characters in a fighting game.
Can I ask you to word that differently, you made it sound really insane. Oh wait, it is!
The math is pretty garbage. Thats if you just buy the base currency itself.
You can get the full roster for around 150$ with the starter packs, batman/wonder woman 75% off bundle, and a couple days of casual play.
Still probably double what it should cost though.
Tekken 8 enters the chat with a 70$ price tag + mtx + BP + DLC fighters.
This is F2P the fighters are earnable for free at an okay pace.
I dub these new game-priced cosmetics, "Wallet flayers", because they're looking rip up your budget in exchange for skins.
Multiversus is exactly how I imagine Super Smash Bros would be if it was done by anyone but Nintendo.
Grindy,predatory, mediocre at best, and will surely die as soon as the year 1 pass is delivered
Y’know, if anything, I believe we have to overthrow David Zalslav. He basically shits all over every damn IP he can get his grubby mitts on. Multiversus is what everything wrong with the platform fighter genre. I’d argue Player First Games shouldn’t be the blame for this, because it felt like they actually cared! I’d say we fire Zalslav, release Coyote V.S. ACME, and delay Multiversus to until 2025 to fix up most of the issues, and make it $5 instead of free to play, and REMOVE ANY INSTANCES FOR MICRO TRANSACTIONS.

It's kinda insane how much NASB 2 was able to get the biggest glow-up when compared to NASB 1 since I remember when Multiversus was revealed a lot of people were saying how the game was miles time better than NASB 1 because it had voice acting and was free to play meaning people didn't need to spend $50 bucks on the game. But oh how things have turned for Multiversus full launch and NASB 2 glow up. NASB 2 has VA launch, a ton of single-player content, 25 characters you play from the get-go without unlocking them by grinding, and the microtransactions aren't as expensive as Multiversus because you can pay $20 bucks for 25 skins which to some people could sound a bit high but a single Multiversus skin cost around 15-20 bucks so getting 25 skins for 20 bucks is an good price.
I was really hoping Multiversus full launch would be the same for NASB 2 but instead, it suffered a fate that is worse than Playstation All-Star which is greed.

Warner Bros just making us spend 260 bucks for a total of 26 characters.
Guy, Smash Ultimate has 89 characters, does that mean I should have spent 890 dollars on it?
I was saying this from the very beginning on Reddit (for what that's worth). These games make money on skins and characters are needed to sell skins, make them hard to get, you hamper your skin sales! Instead, they try to sell people bundles with the character included with a skin, and some extras, but what if they don't like the character? Free rotation is the right direction, but there should be some fighters that are cheaper on average instead of everyone being 3000 FC, the easier (and more popular ones) like Batman and Finn: main characters, easier to play, lots of skin sales because they're mad popular iconic, just makes sense and cents. Instead, they got this bizarro strategy of hostile progression that hinders gameplay! Which is also going to hurt its competitive scene!
the beta did character pricing better
here's hoping 2xko's biggest fault is still the dumbass name they settled on
Yeah, I don't even play League and I still think that's a dumb name. Project L sounds really nice on the tongue, while 2XKO just sounds like a cluttered mess.

@HighLanderPonyYT The roster? The roster of like 20 characters? Do you really think that compares to Smash Ultimate?
At this point, Smash Bros is an anomaly for being successful.
Not really. NASB, Jump Stars, Rivals of Aether, Samurai Gunn and Lethal League all have a sequel on the market or close to market. I'd still say I like a number of games which did well (or not so well) without a sequel like Slap City or Splash Blast Panic.
Smash is just way ahead of the competition and Multiversus chose a business model which isn't sustainable if they don't get whales.
Remember when people were saying MultiVersus would destroy Nick All-Star Brawl in popularity? My, how the tables have turned!
It's prolly still doing that. Nasb1/2 seem to be on life support.
It sucks to say, but NASB 2 is still not close to being as popular as MVS. Which is baffling because the series has only gotten better while MVS has only done the complete opposite.
Like, you dunderheads! There’s a good platform fighter right here, ready for a community to blossom and bloom! “…im going back to smash.” NOOOOOOO!
At least we got the base roster unlocked at $50, so….
At least the game is physical, and the roster is fully unlocked, still sucks though that theirs cut characters
I literally had nothing to do in the game after the first few days 😅 You can only play against the same 3 characters online over and over until you become bored
You're not wrong, literally EVERYONE plays the broken characters cause they're easy to abuse.
Steven...Ohhhh Steven I hate that fucker so much.
When you want to be a smash bros, but don't understand the amount of effort it takes to be a smash bros.
As someone who has over 60 hours clocked in and only started playing after the relaunch, I only managed to get half the roster unlocked and some characters I had to play because I needed to get a certain mission done so I can make progress.
The game wants you to play at its pace or you'll be behind. Hell even as of writing this there are challenges that require you to spend money to get a free skin with the Matrix stuff which is just fuckin absurd.
Even the single player mode is an unfair, unbalanced mess with all the gem leveling you need to do, and as someone who did manage to get Smith early it came at the cost of a broken mouse.

he's talking about iron giant@@HypeVoiceActing
@@Reekskull Why did he specifically mention Jason then?
It's not as simple as "fixing a bug" because they need to make sure the bug is fixed on every console, AND that said consoles all receive the update at the same time (and those usually need to go through an approval process). They don't remove characters unless they are absolutely broken; Iron Giant had a bunch of easy infinites and Jason had a bug that glued you to his model in a stunned state unable to do anything as he just kept damaging you. Obviously people bitched about these bugs so the quickest server side solution they could do about it was to temporarily remove them and work on a hotfix as soon as possible. And to their credit, that's what they did: Jason was only gone for about 3 days before he came back, and they even compensated when they removed him by replacing the rifts requiring him with a different character so you weren't completely fucked. I don't really like how the video presents this as it almost comes across as disingenuous by implying that he was permanently removed or was missing for an extended period of time when it was barely even half a week, and he's been back for ages. You could argue "these bugs shouldn't exist to begin with" but again, this is a live service game that needs to run and be cross compatible on multiple platforms, being developed by a small team of people who are being funded by WB.
I spent my fighter coins on Iron Giant like a day before he was removed because of a bug. I was mad as hell LMAO
I think the core game is fun, but there are still some balancing issues (glares at bugs bunny being lore accurately over powered) and the BP XP grind should be reduced, but over all the game is handing out a ton of free stuff, it just takes a good bit to work towards it.
Some of the event "skins" are really stupid though and genuinely just there to pad things out. Rifts are fun, but really need some difficulty tweaks.
I totally agree, the game needs work but it’s still really fun. People blatantly talk about the downs without the ups, the game is fairly new and they need some time to fix all the issues.
They did nerft some rift battles recently so it's possible.

Well, glad I got into Nick All Star Brawl 2 instead of this, then.
The fact they let us pay money during the beta and then proceeded to shut it down without telling us BEFORE we spent money was already bad enough. Not to mention the constant character reworks which tended to be much more than you’d normally do during a PUBLIC beta. Then they spent over a YEAR working on the game with almost 0% transparency or news whatsoever besides “it’s coming”, proceeded to do almost no advertising and THEN it relaunched in a W O R S E state!?!?
Yeah, no. MultiVersus is a prime example of how NOT to make a game. This has been horrible, I have lost all trust in them and all desire to actually play the game.
To add some more context: I LOVED the game when it first launched. So much so that I decided to buy the Premium Founders Pack. I had a blast playing with friends and family online and offline and had a great time with the random matchup online play as well. It wasn’t perfect though, and it soon became clear that the team really didn’t know what to do going forward.
is it just me or it’s really easy to unlock characters I have 10’s of thousands of fighter currency
it's really not tho. i saved up most of my fighter currency after the official launch, and i still need 12 more characters. doing dailys almost everyday too.....
Isn't it just sad I played this game to play as Finn, Jake, Bugs Bunny, Tom and Jerry, and a few other characters I would play in, only for me to see the reality this game was fucked right from the beginning and that grinding through this game during its beta era was all for nothing?
2022: Can't wait to play! :D
2024: You suck now, MultiVersus! I'm going back to SSBU. Fuck you!
SSBU netcode: FU players!
With this game, it costs $15 dollars to unlock Joker, and that’s it. With Smash Bros, that gets you 2 DlC characters, each coming with their alternate colors, their stage, a playlist of music (with one going up to 50 songs), and their own little challenge mode with Spirit battle. Plus their own Classic Mode run.
the worst part for me personally is now not even in local play you have all the roster unlocked literally
That 75 hours for one character is a load of crap, I've already unlocked 2/3rds of the roster
Me too man I hate that this game has such bad press like that going around there’s problems but there’s also a lot of bullshit that just isn’t true
This game is honestly amazing
@@XfinityWifiGuy season 2 is coming real soon if you think it’s good now I can’t wait until next week
@Junkmanesincebirth I just finished the BP yesterday, I'm excited for season 2 and all the new characters and content
@@goofyahleon are you fellas down to play some time? 1v1 and 2v2
Reminder that this and the unfinished Allstars Brawl were considered "Smash Killers" by Nintendo Haters. I'd say it was Karma, but WB really is a peice of trash right now. Sucks too, I actually wanted this game to be good.
NASB2 was good though.
This is why I still play Super Smash Brothers.
“It’s a game about grinding”😂 such a good use of a Cosmo clip
Even with all this I still love this game don’t come at me😭
this is why you don't take sponsorships for things you aren't 100% on board about. the game sucking makes YOU look bad.
I didn't take a sponsorship for anything lmao what are you yapping about
@@UncleAlPlusPretty sure he was being rhetorical and talking about other youtubers
I think the worst part for my end is that I didn't even get to SEE what happens. I can't even play the game because it goes through the "Account Syncing" and as soon as it happens, I'm kicked out before I'm even in the servers.
I tried EVERYTHING and it STILL won't let me in, and I asked the Discord, I even emailed the devs and left feedback on their site, absolutely NO ONE would help besides one or two random Discord users. So I can't even TRY to play the game. It's messed up.
A daily reminder that the beta of multiversus was better purely because it was a shit ton faster
Whatever hope I had for Multiversus (which wasn't much because WB has lost the plot for years on the business side of things and a free-to-play fighter was a golden opportunity to them to nickel and dime) evaporated when they pulled the game for two years. You just don't *DO* that if you're a live service, whose success *demands* keeping people's attention long-term.
It's genuinely impressive how badly WB fumbled this.
And the roster picks are just abysmal.
Where is The PPG, KO, Black Hat, Mordecai, Gumball, Gwimbly, Walter White, Ben 10, Master Shake, Uncle Grandpa, and Mandy?
As someone who played the Beta, but not to it's end, enjoys the new found slower pace of the game, and kind of enjoys the challenge of squeezing as much free stuff as I can out of a f2p game, I've been enjoying my time with the game. Though I am pretty disappointed in its unfortunate lack of polish.
I'm more inclined to agree with MockRock on this one. The game could definitely be on better ground, and really should have been at launch, but there's enough of a good base here that I'm willing to stick it out as things get better.
I just hope I don't end up alone on that...
Not even lebron james in a cowboy hat could make me come back to this game
The best part of the open beta was when the game would pull up a crash report immediately after you Alt+F4'ed the moment you lost
Y’all should say happy late birthday because this came out on. My birthday
If I can try to defend the "less complete than the beta" complaints, Player First Games went on record saying one of the biggest decisions they made after the beta was taken down was to completely rebuild the game from scratch to accomidate a more updated rollback netcode. And the combination of essentially remaking the entire game plus Warner Bros pushing them to release the game early is the biggest reason why a lot of features from the beta didn't return at first.
Also in the interest of fairness regarding characters, you *can* test out characters in the training mode before you decide on if you want to buy them or not. And the game does contain a weekly rotation of four characters to play for free outside of Shaggy.
You nailed basically every other problem on the head though. And it sucks because I can definitely see some passion poured into the game buried deep underneath all the predatory decisions smothering it. And to give PFG credit, they have tried their best to listen to fan feedback (which is more than what you can say about a lot of game studios), but WB really fumbled hard in trying to get this game off the ground.
The amount of times the clip with the Friday the 13th Black Adam skin is shown is the same as the number of live service battle pass integrated games that die each week
I love how people said this game was gonna be the Smash Bros killer, and this game shot itself
oh we are so back
Ok but for my rant on Multiversus, It was INCREDIBLY disgusting how after winning 2 or 3 awards, Multiversus slinked away for about a year and said 'oh this was a beta' and reopened in 2024 expecting the game awards to just welcome them back with open arms as if they can cheat their way as best fighting game again. NO. And how did it even get an award?? It was janky and laggy as hell for me like moves had hella lag-time, maybe it was my old PC? i don't know.
There's a reason now why I realize you should only let video games have fighting game crossovers like MVC or Smash bros, Trying to do it with movie or TV show characters will fail one way or another unless the company behind it knows what it's doing and either picks up the slack or monetizes their free game well. NASB and Multiversus are fun until you start scraping at the skin. You shouldn't be turned down by a game just at the SKIN ALONE. A shame my main Jason isn't around anymore but hey, I'm not really playing it all that much so it doesn't matter.
Nasb 2 >
Oh hell nah
At least it improved on its flaws. I’d like to see MVS try that.
There's a game in the microtransactions
Never, EVER, give Warner Bros. the benefit of the doubt. They're noticeably more corrupt in the gaming space than Activision or Blizzard. Which is a remarkable feat in and of itself.
You can try all characters in training to see who you like
Payday 3 moment
Mmmm yes I love macrotransaction culture
The worst part about all this is I put a decent chunk of change into the "Beta" because I enjoy it. I still have not received any of my legacy purchases or content to this day :/
Yeah I know, I just got NASB2 and its legitimately more fun than Ultimate and MVS
Tried nasb2 on a free weekend, got turned off by the weird movement and overall presentation in about 30 mins.
Still playing MVS.
Bottom line, both have their fans.
Problem with multiversus is that it’s a live service game. And if you have a certain character you like that’s locked behind you have to either heavily grind for it or pay for it.
I haven’t played NASB2 yet. But I’m hoping in the 3rd game the roster does not get cut.
I think it’s just wb being greedy I think the devs really do care about this game
Isn't WB the same company that pattened a revolutionary system that is the nemesis? Imagine, gatekeeping a literal game mechanic.
The minute they ruined Velma's cop summon because it could be used against an NBA player, I was out.
