The writing is so... cringy.

[Cirative]

Not the story - which is meh - but why is every conversation either like this:
"You're cool."
"You're cool, too."
"But you're cooler."
"No, you're cooler."

Or REALLY flirtatious for a game that has zero romance options? Like, I'm 99% sure that Nico is DTF in dialogue despite giving off lesbian vibes with her outfit.

While it does have a very strong "High school dating sim" vibe (which reminds me of something like Fire Emblem: Three Houses). And it FEELS like the game should have romance options (and I'd love if it did, frankly). I imagine that might've gotten nixed out by the Disney types. I actually find it very much in line with Guardians of the Galaxy (which is an amazing game), or much of the dialogue in the MCU movies (which yes, you could argue is cringy as well) but they're spot on for the source material. Especially in that Robbie and Nico are the younger members. (Tony also acts like he's five).

Yes, the generic one-line responses are generic.

Comic book writing tends to be very quipy. Doubly so when you have Iron Man, Spider-Man, or any younger character. Humor writing either lands or it crashes; there's basically no middle ground.

The writers seems to excel in one-on-one interactions. If it's just Hunter and a hero, the dialogue trends toward passable. Add a third wheel, though, and characters begin "yes and"ing each other to death or play the "How many adverbs can we fit in a sentence" game.

I appreciate the generally positive rapport the characters have, especially after the game started with two separate "heroes fighting heroes" scenes. What gets annoying, again, is when they try to bring in a third wheel.
"Tell me about yourself, Carol."
"I'd rather tell you about how AMAZING the Hulk is!"

It has cheesy moments in the friendship stuff, but other than that is pretty much spot on in terms of source material. Hopefully they add romance options, doubtful, but hopefully. Worked Magik to max first lol.

You won't get romance with canon characters in a Disney franchise.

I'm pretty sure Firaxis got told no, then the writers got absolutely as close to implying it as they could get away with.

Well then my head canon says we are doing the limbo in limbo.

The story beats attached to story moments are pretty kay.

Walking up to a character and having a conversation is bad. Its also ranges from character to character which obviously each had a different writer.
Remember the cool/reclusive character Blade? He now acts like he is in high school. He has a crush. etc. Its just bad.
Some of the characters are one dimensional even in comics like Captain America which makes it painful to have a conversation with.

I have enjoyed the conversations, of course i only talk to heros with a discussion icon. I can see how things would be repetative to constantly click on (or bump into) heroes.
I like how they ask your opinion on topics, and that your response guides character devrlopement (sometimes friendship, light/dark points, or combat perks)

Now who is being cringe, christ are you 12?

I think it's more camp than it is cringe, but that's just me. Some of the dialogue is so campy it loops around to being funny just for how silly it is. Maybe I'm just a child at heart though as I really love the upbeat "hell yeah, we're the best" attitude of some of the dialogue, it's a bit reminiscent of old cartoons I used to watch growing up.

I know most people will call out Tony for his horrible dad jokes, but I greatly enjoy those in a "so bad they are good" kind of way. Maybe i'm just built different. I find humour in most things people say is cringe so I revel in it.

I think the the overall story and main mission dialogue/writing is great especially when held up against the comics and MCU...doesn't really diverge at all there. Its to be expected. Sure some of the "Hangout, background conversations" are about cheesy but over all they actually bring a lot of the story to life while giving the characters personality. I think they did a great job.
