I just want them to make Spider-Man 2 for Gamecube except replace the bleh combat with Arkham Asylum over and over and over and over and over again because I will never get tired of that.
Then there's my Grand-Theft Meta-Human game where you basically get to design your own hero and do whatever you want, hero, villain, anti-hero, it's all good.
If they made that game and put it in the Marvel Universe, I think I might shit my pants.
also designing a character who is a grown ass woman who is called "_______ Girl" is....
it's not entirely cool
there's just a bit of sorta ambient sexism in it, because it's infantilizing a woman because she is a woman, in a way that would be really off to do to an adult male character
Superman is called Superboy sometimes... when he's young. When he literally is... Superboy
if you're going to call a 23 female superhero a Girl you should ask if you'd call a 23 male superhero a Boy
if you wouldn't, then uh
maybe that's kind of a problem?
I was thinking earlier, it's interesting how Power Girl is a grown woman and yet she kind of owns the name anyway.
Sort of like her boob window, it shouldn't work, but it does.
The thing I hated about City of Heroes is that you pick a powerset and only get access to it as you level up.
There are no heroes that have exactly one power and get more powers as they go. You need to start with a core power set and develop it or change it as you go.
That way you could maybe have like a shield but instead of throwing it maybe you have some guns or something and also rocket boots.
That way you can mess around and combine different powers and actually have something unique and interesting instead of just "okay I am Wolverine clone #4703".
Superhero games are the one thing where I really don't like create-a-character.
I want to play as Captain America, not as some knock-off sort-of lookalike I've ginned up that gets quests from him.
Yeah, same here
I was really bummed out when that bottom row of characters in Lego Marvel were all just reserved spots for created characters that I was never, ever going to make

Marvel and DC have ripped each other off thousands of times, in different ways. They don't get to walk away from this week going "we have a Danvers" though. There is one Danvers, her first name is Colonel, and she will punch you in the goddamn face/also help take your daughter trick or treating.

The closest to that is Lego Marvel, which lets you make custom dudes out of some of the pieces you have unlocked.
My idea for a Marvel game would be open world playing as Taskmaster in Madripoor. You can get a lot of variety from the setting and Taskmaster would allow people to play as a known character but also have their own playstyle. Want to fight like Iron Fist and swing around like Spidy? Go ahead. Use long range weapons like Hawkeye or Punisher? Sure why not. Plus the shifting morality of Tasky and the fact that Madripoor is both a fake and shady city would let people get away with doing stuff that wouldn't necessarily go against what the character would do. Just get the Sleeping Dogs developers to make it.

This sounds fantastic. I could even see picking up and mixing and matching different heroes' costume pieces. Like having a Punisher leather jacket but then also wearing a Hawkeye t-shirt underneath with Director of SHIELD Cap's energy shield.

I now hate you for making me dream of a game that will never be.
Oh, and you'd have bullet-time too, with the double speed reflexes thing he can pull. Fun.

if marvel heroes
ever added custom characters
i would begin physically inserting money into my computer
Goes against the whole point and business model of the game though
Steam
Or this!
Lord knows I'm not a picky man
Ultimate Alliance was an Activision series, all Marvel stuff is under the Disney Interactive umbrella
LEGO Marvel is cute and Disney Infinity looks stylish, but I want something more.

Sign me the fuck up.
I mean, I'm happy to play as Spider-man or whoever
But as a kid I was always having adventures WITH characters, not as them.

I want to see Spider-Man, Hulk and Captain Marvel standing in a line and waiting for their turn to attack
Yo
There's the fucking door, mate.
either the north or maybe just off shift from pulling coal
I should go.
Marvel Heroes is close enough.

I don't sound like that.
It's much cooler when I say it. Like I SHOULD go.
Sometimes I say "I'll come back later". But I never do. Leave 'em wanting more.
Why I fear the ocean.
