Oh boy. £120 to just unlock the base characters or “dozens and dozens” of hours of grind for each of them.
We’ll see how this goes, but I see this going the way of Suicide Squad. I wonder when, if ever, Warner Bros. Is going to learn that players are actively pushing back against corporate greed and live service games are already way past the limit of microtransactions that players deem acceptable.
Zaslov’s plan is everything has to actively make money and all the free space on screen should be making money. Fuck the creators who make the things he sells, he wants the creations to always make money. Things that don’t make money aren’t culturally valuable and are thrown away. So that’s the directive WB seems to be following and Multiversus is the latest casualty to Zaslov’s Plan.
WB already fucked things up before he arrived, and Zaslov has just made things worse.
This is the guy that’s largely responsible for reality TV taking over all channels Discovery owns, so yeah. This was sadly to be expected.
It’s probably better than NASB2 (Nickelodeon All Star Brawl 2). I’m so glad I didn’t pay full price for that game.
As someone that’s put a lot of time into platform fighters and grew up on Nickelodeon, the character designs in that game are so void of personality and it makes me sad. Aang barely moves like the avatar, he just kind of generically slings around elemental attacks. It’s really frustrating how much potential they let languish
Multiversus has that overproduction stank all over it, so it being this void of sauce as it were isn’t surprising, but NASB is the one I feel actively kind of betrayed by
