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.

even at noon the game isn't full with real players. a lot of bots and inflated number

...once again, Steam doesn't count bots or players in game, and doesn't count bots at all.

The player count Steam tracks is merely an indicator of how many people have the game open at a given time.

Yeah.
It's not like TF2 where bots are having steam accounts that boosts active players count.
I bet Rivals graph is not a a scratchfest like TF2.

no. no one really likes the game and we see why

The active players are enjoying it, much like how you're enjoying the furry and hentai games you play (not judging btw, they look great). I think after five pages of repeating yourself and going nowhere, you'll have to face the fact that your anger is not being heard in this particular forum.
Consider simply opening a thread in the general Steam forum to tell your story.

There's no way the active players are correct, haha.

We all hate it :P

[Grobbulus the Gross]

It's just funny that so many people who don't have that many hours on the game seem to know so much about it. I formed my opinion over a hundred hours of gameplay and yet I'm just told that I'm wrong by some monkey with 25 hours in it.

[nelixery]

I only have 30 hours myself. My professional opinion is, you hate it :O

With an opinion like that, it's probably why you're not a professional.

Stick to the single player experiences, they're definitely more your speed.

IDK how you have so much time in game with all the time you've spent rapid fire responding to people in this thread.

Oops he must need another dose of meds. The rapid fire responses are starting to get scrambled. Either that or maybe Grobbulus is really an AI bot and we are all breaking it finally?

[Grobbulus the Gross]

Oops, I made a mistake. Guess that invalidates everything else I said, hm~? Go spend more time with your son, Mark. I'm probably half your age and thrice as good at a game that you adamantly defend.
