Nobody likes Marvel Rivals. (Reasons for it)

[Tighty-Whitey]

marvel rivals has a negative reception for the most part. that's right, those reviews seem to look as if the game is successful reception wise, but it actually isn't. the only people who have something good to say about rivals are the ones who are into comic books or are easy targets thirsty after a failure of overwatch 2, jumping into another hero shooter to brag about how much "better" it is than overwatch, even if the gameplay of the game is mediocre.

it shouldn't be about attempts to self-affirm about "how much better" it is than overwatch, as that only makes that consumer a more lucrative prey towards the studios. many people who are currently playing marvel rivals will leave anyway for other new games coming out because we all know that the hype and fear of missing out are prevalent in today's industry. those are the reasons people play the game for, but who actually likes it? no one really enjoyed the game because there isn't much to it, it's bloated, tries to do more than it can handle and the gameplay tries to overpower the player with the amount of content, rather than intuitive value and quality. lack of those things simply cannot hold players for long. how will the game keep itself within the attention for years to come when the developers clearly lack knowledge on how to appeal to both competitive and casual gamers?

"positive" reviews that we see are from vocal minority, those reviews simply lie for the reasons i described above and combined with what the game has to offer, those reviews don't seem to be convincing. most people didn't play marvel rivals and feel no need to talk about and don't really like the game. a large portion of users are avoiding marvel rivals without even trying it because they see right at the first glance that it's not worth it and it is simply a hive for youtubers to make revenue and "content" off of, easy target audience that buys into marvel merchandise, movies and anything "marvel" related even if everything coming out is subpar and generic and finally, hero shooter fans feeling down after overwatch, ones who are desperate for a hero shooter that they can point on and call "better", but they are missing the bigger picture that they are just being exploited by the studio for that very reason. everyone pretty much knows that it's just a marketing scheme to push new movies of theirs, so no one really considers to spend too much time on games like these nowadays. by looking at how many games like these flopped, we can see that combined with the problems the game has and lack of originality, the substantial loss of players and fading hype is on the horizon.

game won’t make it a year, and lose more than half its player count in 6 months

I'm not giving you clown awards, stop begging.

I keep seeing you around, doomsaying.
Why are you here on forums for a game you don't enjoy?

You spend your free time saying "this game isn't going to last" when you could be playing something you actually enjoy.

Oh, look, this GPT fool again!
Btw, if nobody is aware, he was spamming Deadlock discussions for months with his AI garbage without being banned. Probably appeared in other places as well.
Just ignore this creature and do not provide clowns, please.

I had just come in here to say something similar.

Game is fantastic.

[Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...]

nice work, OP.

You are entitled to your own opinion. It isn't worth trying to convince people the game is bad. The people who don't like the game don't need any convincing. As much as you typed, none of it was very constructive.

The game is fun for a lot of people. Let it be fun for the people who find it fun and stop trying to sour the mood. Who cares why someone plays the game? Maybe some people love how unbalanced it is. Maybe they are playing because they want to play Spiderman or Venom or Jeff. Who cares? Maybe the game won't last a year. Maybe it will. Move along.

That's a great story, tell me again.

you should just read the evaluation a lot more carefully so that it can clear up some points you've missed. marvel rivals is a game with a temporary popularity status.

Who is Nobody? I know nobody by that name. Well it's good he or she likes Marvel rivals.

Thanks for letting us know.

[Dodon]

All that yapping and not mentioning the game's technical issues?

Bro doesn't give a ♥♥♥♥ about reviews or what's actually wrong with the game, just clown farming.

[LeäfCät]

The only thing i dislike about the game is not having Role Q in Comp. ill prob just play the game occasionally in quick play but not go beyond that.
