Marvel’s Wolverine Has To Avoid Annoying Enemy Types For The Sake of Balance

Wolverine is a tough superhero to kill, so Marvel's Wolverine enemies need to have tricks up their sleeves, but hopefully not any annoying ones.

The Big Berthas from Gotham Knights were meh. I get that the game needed some spongier brutes, but hopefully Wolvy does it that much better.

I think it’ll be different. Being M rated is already a big deal…. Take more chances while you’re at it

Aloymetal184d ago

I think Insomniac know(s) a thing or two about super heroes so it's safe to say let them do their job because they know what they're doing.

Flewid638184d ago

Nothing about a video game should annoy the player.

Immagaiden183d ago

I still find it ridiculous that Spider-Man can go up against regular mooks that can block his attacks

The power scaling is ridiculous

Marvel's Wolverine Should Treat Deadpool Like One Classic Yakuza Character

Deadpool could play a vital role in the upcoming Marvel's Wolverine title by taking up the legacy of an entertaining Yakuza character.

I hope not. Keep it dark and grim. Just seeing Deadpool in that thumbnail makes it look like Fortnite.

Christopher79d ago

I think we can live without Deadpool. If he shows up he either steals the show or isn't present enough. He's too popular for being a main character now that he doesn't work as well as a side character in a heavily story driven game like Insomniac Marvel games. I also don't think any of us want to deal with the onslaught of "Why Insomniac MUST make a Deadpool game next" articles.

jznrpg79d ago (Edited 79d ago )

I am guessing he isn’t in the game.

They are going for a more mature darker tone from the trailer shown.

Deadpool doesn’t fit that at all.

I think I saw the first movie once but I’d rather they keep Deadpool in his own games

SimpleSlave79d ago (Edited 79d ago )

Absolutely. This is not about maturity but about writing and presentation. Yakuza is quite literally a story about the Japanese Mafia and it takes itself EXTREMELY seriously in that aspect. Then it flips it around and goes all silly goose on us. You know actual real life is.

The whole "tHiS iS mAtUrE" argument shows how plenty of people here have a lot of growing up to do. Too much Edge Lording and not enough Perspective, Nuance and Reality.

But then again, this will be a game about a guy that has healing factor, is like 200 years old, has indestructible metal over his bones and grows claws our of his hands. And he also hangs out with actual demi-gods and literal gods that are able to alter reality itself. So I guess I stand corrected. Deadpool might actually not work at all.

Oh, well. Maybe next time.

Looking forward to it. Just ordered X-men Origins Wolverine to scratch some of that itch in the meantime.

Underrated gem that game is

Insomniac's Spider-Man And Wolverine Should Start Gaming's Own MCU

Starting gaming's Own MCU with Marvel's Spider-Man and Wolverine is a logical move Sony should make to boost sales amidst high competition.

Vengeance1138115d ago

God NO! The MCU is beyond awful now, or as it is now the "M-SHE-U", not everything needs to be part of some interconnected universe. Also this would greatly hinder creative freedom as making huge narrative changes would need to make sense for other games that are connected.

Terry_B115d ago

The MCU's big problem is..that more or less all Marvel movies and series are a part of it. Which makes something like a bloody Blade movie or a truly mature Punisher movie or series impossible.

Vengeance1138115d ago

Any Punisher movie is actually impossible now since his iconic logo was used by terrorists, now he's a ninja with swords with a completely different logo.

SinisterMister114d ago

Well, the same MCU that you bash now with no regret gave us the likes of the Avengers movies, and damn, wasn't that something of a series. The recent Guardians of the Galaxy 3 was amazing top-to-bottom as well. Sure, and I agree with you on that part, that Marvel hasn't been at its level best lately, but a cross-over like this in gaming isn't such a bad idea.

Noskypeno114d ago

It was great for a few years, but I shouldn't have to watch a 12 part tv series to understand a new character that appears in a new movie.

MCU died with Endgame. There were some flutters of life with No Way Home and Guardians of the Galaxy 3 but they weren't enough to make up for the entire MCU. At best we get some good Spiderman movies in the future but the MCU is dead.

Saying M SHE U tells us that your opinions are bad.

Vengeance1138113d ago (Edited 113d ago )

Saying that an opinion is "bad" tells me that you're one of those blue haired man hating feminists. Go clutch your pearls some more.

GhostScholar114d ago

If the games are good it doesn’t matter if they’re connected or not.

I think each character should have their own 'age' and aren't directly related at all. Gives them more space to evolve the characters and bring in more relevant elements from the comics rather than a white washed world where everything has to match up
