    First some positives, the story was good and Kamala was a great character. The gameplay however was insanely boring and repetive. Overall just not a good game which is dissapointing being an Avengers game.

    Not the movie MCU characters, oh well. Kamala Khan who? So no wider general audience recognition. One for the comic book nerds I suppose? Gameplay + currency = cash grab. Experiences like this don't warrant or are worthy of in-depth review. Game was purchased pre-owned 40% of retail price and borrowed it off a family member. Time wasted, but at least no money wasted.

    Just a oke, unpolished, average story with oke combat, boring enemy and env design and repetitive gameplay. I never thought anyone can make a loot system this boring and uninteresting, they definitely raised the bar in wrong direction.

    Believe the reviews. 4/10 is generous. This Game. This **** game. It seemed like there was no way it could lose. But here we go, watch it fail on every point. Look this game up in the dictionary under Squandered Opportunities.

It seemed like there was no way it could lose. But here we go, watch it fail on every point. Look this game up in the dictionary under Squandered Opportunities.

    The worst part of this game is the story. Instead of playing as the Avengers you play as a new character trojaned into the main slot, a character you never heard of and don't care about. I call her Manhands, based on her power of making her hands gigantic. She is an unknown wannabe who spends most of the game fawning over a group she calls “the resistance". She is the center around which revolves a shallow, hamfisted story as boring as the gameplay it accompanies.

    In the first 40 minutes prepare to be lectured heavily with SJW cliches, the message delivered awkwardly and without finesse. Rote repetition of chanting mantras that were played out in 2019 take the place where an Avengers story should be. Awful story. Awful, awful story without craft or storytelling expertise. It just keeps getting worse the longer you play. This story is not fire. It's not awesome. It’s not intriguing, it doesn’t draw you in. The terrible cringe of the writing won’t grow on you. IT SUCKS! Hard.

    The gameplay is no better. Remember PS4 Spider-Man? You really got the feeling you were spidey with access to his unique movements and moveset. You don’t get that feeling in Avengers. No matter which hero you choose, they all feel kind of the same. What would have been great is a well designed level, where each hero’s unique abilities allowed them access to different sections of the level or approach challenges in a different way. Even Banjo-kazooie on N64 got that concept. But that concept is not understood in Avengers where everyone moves, plays and feels pretty much the same.

    The levels are mainly nothing but basic hallways, sometimes pretty, but you can’t escape you are basically in a square box. There was an old hulk game on Playstation 1 that had more hulk-like feels than hulk in Avengers. Square square triangle. Square square triangle. Over and over. And over and over and over. The longer you play this game the worse it gets. This game is the worst kind of grind, a boring and inane mashfest. A fact only made worse by the potential their exciting characters promised, a promise undelivered by the devolopers.

    It’s important to understand before you buy this that even though the game is called Avengers, familiar characters take a backseat to SJW inspired Kamala who is the center of the main storyline. THE AVENGERS ARE ONLY BACKGROUND CHARACTERS. This is a Kamala Khan game. Which would be fine if that’s what you bought, but you bought an Avengers game. You know damn well you didn’t buy this game for this spotlighted little chick, you wanted Cap, Iron Man, Thor, Hulk and Widow. The stupid main character Kamala robbed you of that game. Even when you do get control another character, she pipes in constantly with annoying and disruptive chatter to spoil the mood. Seriously, Kamala Khan is one of the most irritating and unwelcome characters ever invented.

    Random villains show up randomly, just to pad the roster. Think it will be cool to play a game with all those old familiar villains? It won't be. Pointless plot structure. The Avengers themselves, when you do see them look less like a movie or comic book counterpart and more like millenial day at the cosplay convention. Except cosplayers would look much better. These soy-soaked Avengers-style placeholders don't look heroic. Maybe it's a blessing you don't really get to play as them that often.
    Love microtransactions? so does marvel/square-enix! Really really love them! A lot! Don’t worry about it though, after playing this crapfest a bit you won’t be back to purchase more.

    This is by far the worst Square-enix game I have ever played. I wanted to love it. But the idiots that made this just weren't going to let that happen. The fact that they are locking out reviews after the game has been made playable is proof they don’t want the verdict on this game revealed. It’s bad. I can’t believe this is from Square, it is a game so far below their normal standards they should be ashamed. Go ahead, don't believe it. After all, you like the Avengers. So did I, friend. So did I. Don't cry you weren't warned. This is the worst game I have played all year, the biggest disappointment of 2020.    … Expand

    Bought this because I loved Marvel's Spider-Man. The combat in that game was challenging yet satisfying. Not so here. First of all, you're supposed to be able to block, dodge and counter, but good luck executing any of those when you're being targeted by turrets, missiles, freeze rays, lasers, rockets and grenades all at once. It's so chaotic, I can't even focus on one enemy longBought this because I loved Marvel's Spider-Man. The combat in that game was challenging yet satisfying. Not so here. First of all, you're supposed to be able to block, dodge and counter, but good luck executing any of those when you're being targeted by turrets, missiles, freeze rays, lasers, rockets and grenades all at once. It's so chaotic, I can't even focus on one enemy long enough to contemplate what I'm doing. And when you're playing with four people, there's so much **** happening on the screen you can't even see where anything is. So you're forced to either a) mash buttons and unload your special abilities as soon as they're charged in the hope you might survive, or b) run away and use ranged attacks while you wait for your teammates to thin out the soup. It's sometimes impossible to tell what's killing you--the chaos starts and the next thing you know, your health bar is almost empty and your character's saying something like, "I'm not doing so good." And guess how you're supposed to fill your health back up? Yup, by carefully executing moves. I'm in hell.

    The gear is absolutely pointless which makes it all the more annoying when you can't progress to the next story mission because your gear isn't upgraded enough to make the mission not a total nightmare. It's nothing but a tedious chore to have to keep checking the gear screen to make sure you're using the highest level stuff. And when you're in combat, you don't notice the difference the gear makes except that maybe you might die slower.

    One more complaint: the jumping. If you're jumping a long distance, just one too generous a nudge of the thumbstick is enough to send you careening over a cliff, then you have to stare at that loading screen for practically a whole minute before you can try again.

    It doesn't work as either a mindless beat-em-up or as a looter shooter, which is a shame because I like the Kamala Khan character, the acting is good, and the graphics are good. Very disappointing.    … Expand

    I'm really rather confused as to how this game was allowed to be released to the public in its current state. I'm rarely, over my 20+ years of gaming, having ever run into bugs, and that includes games from Bethesda. I, in fact, openly admit I would be a horrible game tester because of how often I seem to have no problems while others run into a surplus. This game, however, is polluted with bugs, I truly wonder who (if anyone) was hired to do any sort of alpha, beta or bug testing before this games' release. Audio bugs, cosmetic bugs, combat bugs, the game crashing at random moments. You name it, the game'll have a bug affecting how enjoyable that aspect is.

    The combat, for all its positives have an equal amount of negatives; It's *too* chaotic and at the best of times, simply unfair, and that's not even including how awful your AI partners are. When you've got 2 of them off in a completely different zone running around in circles (literally) and one of them just staring off into space, meanwhile you have to fend off 20 machines that all spawn at once, some of them being gigantic damage-sponges, even without the 10000-damage shields some of them come equipped with, needless to say, you're pretty screwed and you're going to have to die to reset the AI so they do what they're supposed to. That's the tip of the iceberg with the combat. Never mind the off-screen turrets of which there is a surplus is every level, flying enemies with ranged weapons with bullets all traveling at varying speeds, so the attack indicators on them do you absolutely no good. Then you have enemies with incredibly broken mechanics, featuring god-levels of tracking on their attacks, stun locks that last a good 2 seconds, then they proceed to 2-shot or 1-shot your character, even playing as the Hulk. Again...not even the tip of the iceberg with combat....

    The story thus far, granted I haven't finished it, has many parts where it simply feels very disjointed. Events happen that you are not privy to and you're just left wondering, "how exactly did that character accomplish this?" The world may never know because the devs designed a contrived, cheesy, cliché, and half-assed story that, amid all the time they had, and still feels like it's missing a lot of parts and context.

    It needs so much work still that again, I'm brought back to my original point and question of why it was released in its current state. Maybe down the line, after the team has had a LOT of time to work out these bugs, fine-tune the experience, add more characters, maybe fix the story by adding in some necessary cut-scenes? Truly, I don't envy the team with how much more work needs to go into the game - I just regret buying it on release.    … Expand

    Mientras en algunos juegos (Hades) basicamente puedes jugar los mismos niveles una y otra vez, y TODAS las veces se van a sentir diferentes. En Marvels Avengers pasa lo contrario, puedes jugar TODAS las misiones del juego y TODAS te pareceran la misma.

    -Instead of using movie rights or anything Marvel has ties to they used different actors and faces to mash-up the best similarity they could come up with for the characters and it didn't work well. Like, at all.
    -The story all the way through the game including the side quests feels like a rollercoaster that eventually falls flat.
    -The visuals can be great at times but dont really hold the game up with its lackluster elements.
    -The music flows really well however, the soundtrack I found very fitting.
    -The additional content felt forced filled with ads and not very exciting to work towards.
    -The combat system felt highly flawed, enemies felt overpowered at times and the heroes felt quite literally the opposite.
    -The gear not changing appearances was also highly frustrating.

Even on release day, I was so excited by the idea of the game that I think I was allowing my perception to be pretty generous in overlooking flaws.

    Honestly, I had a lot of fun with this game for about a day or two. The campaign was short, but I was excited to get through it to get into what I assumed the "real" game was: Playing online with friends. That proved to be wildly underwhelming, as each mission felt almost identical and the grind of leveling characters just somehow wasn't satisfying enough.

    A couple of the characters are fun to play as, namely Thor, but playing as him really began to solidify the problem of feeling underpowered, as a lightning charged hit from Mjolnir only dinks away at a basic enemy's health rather than shattering them. The enemy units are wildly uncreative, just an assortment of the same few robot and armored troop designs, and they just aren't satisfying to fight.

    The cosmetics are another huge problem with the game, as most of the upgrades for your characters don't apply any cosmetic changes, and the skins available are all somehow more goofy looking than anything from the classic comics.

    The new Hawkeye/ Kate Bishop update seems to be too little, too late, but I may check it out if it's free. I've already thrown away more money than this game deserved.

In a world with God of War and the Arkham series, how you can screw up melee combat this bad is baffling. The worst crime this game commits other than the live service nonsense is that it makes all your heroes feel weak as candy floss in a bucket of water - if even basic grunt enemies are as little as 2 power levels higher than you, you die in a just a handful of hits.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This review is for the campaign mode not multiplayer. Some of the combat is fun but a lot is really repetitive. Don't really like the whole run to a room to fight waves of generic enemies just to run to the next room where you rinse and repeat. Seemed to be a lot of mindless button mashing. Being forced to switch characters so often was a drag too. Just when you start enjoying the game play of one you have to switch. Maybe the campaign is just an intro into the multiplayer. Do yourself a favor and play Ghost of Tsushima instead.… Expand

    They really messed up making this a looter game. Theres so much saturation already in that market. People just want awesome Avengers action. Not to be staring at menus and numbers half the time. What a shame. The combat is okay and the story was short but good. They just messed up so bad making it a multiplayer focused looter game.

    All of the Avengers are boring or just not likable. I think Ms. Marvel was done well enough, but even she was almost ruined at some points.

I had to restart the campaign halfway through due to a game-breaking bug, and I had to restart so many missions so many times during that 2nd playthrough due to glitches and bugs. The "DLC" campaigns for the new characters are also terrible and half-baked. I am straight-up not able to advance past the Hawkeye / Black Panther campaigns due to a game-breaking bug in both of them, but I'm not restarting because I can't tolerate this game anymore.

    Ao que parecia ser o jogo perfeito dos Vingadores, se tornou uma completa catástrofe, não se deixem levar pela capa bonita ou pelos heróis de cinema, o jogo é RUIM, e eu pontuarei a seguir desde problemas técnicos a problemas de marketing, ele NÃO vale o dinheiro de lançamento, quem avisa amigo é...

    1- PROBLEMAS TÉCNICOS
    Otimização terrível mesmo com requisitos acima dos recomendados.
    Stutters, quedas bruscas de FPS e Crashando em momentos completamente aleatórios
    ________________________________________

    2- PROBLEMAS NO JOGO EM SI.
    O jogo começa muito bem em uma forma linear, mas sua qualidade despenca a partir das primeiras missões na Mesa de Guerra, o jogo se torna completamente maçante e com uma narrativa fraca, com mapas cheios de informações na tela, chegando a deixar o jogador tonto...
    O combate é excelente... nas primeira horas...
    Inimigos se resumem apenas a robôs, robôs e robôs genéricos, e são sempre o mesmos que aparecem ao longo da campanha inteira, fora os mesmos 2 tipos de Boss que são reciclados o tempo todo.

    Os objetivos das missões? Geralmente ir do ponto A ao ponto B, matando e matando mais robôs, com alguns “puzzles” simples e porcos pelo caminho apenas para dar uma falsa sensação de diversidade, alem de ter muito grind, tudo é EXTREMAMENTE REPETITIVO.

    O mapas são simples e sem graça, repleto de plataformas flutuando sem sentido, causando uma confusão visual enorme, trazendo uma ambientação tecnológica genérica e o sistema de Gear é desnecessário e raso, tendo que trocar a todo tempo a cada 4 minutos...
    ________________________________________

    3- EXCLUSIVIDADE SPIDER-MAN

    Gostaria de pontuar um problema que alguns podem julgar como “pequeno”, mas convido-lhes a analisar comigo.

    Práticas de exclusividade em jogos multi-plataforma não devem ser vistas por jogadores como algo “normal” nos dias atuais, pois se trata de práticas ultrapassadas, gananciosas e abusivas, visando apenas lucro das empresas e desrespeitando os fãs. Além de desmotivar completamente a compra do jogo em outras plataformas...

    A Sony ao contrário do que muitos acham, detém apenas os direitos dos filmes do personagem, todo o resto envolvendo Games, HQs, Brinquedos e etc, cabem unicamente a Marvel, real detentora do Cabeça de Teia.
    A exclusividade sem sentido foi anunciada sem aviso ou explicações por parte da desenvolvedora (CD) ou da distribuidora (SE), um dos maiores descasos com os jogadores que presenciei em toda minha vida acompanhando a indústria dos Games, uma completa falta de ética profissional excluir cerca de 60% da Playerbase do jogo, beneficiando apenas a Sony ($$$$).

    Aos que acham besteira toda essa reclamação sobre a exclusividade de um único personagem (é apenas uma DLC eles dizem), eu lhes digo; um jogo ao estilo “Live Service” onde absolutamente TODO conteúdo lançado posteriormente é tão importante quanto o jogo base, trancar um personagem em uma plataforma é LITERALMENTE CORTAR grande conteúdo das outras, tendo em vista que não apenas o mesmo será exclusivo, como também sua missão especial contando com um vilão único.
    além de tudo isso, Spider-Man é o super-herói MAIS popular da Marvel, tentam nos empurrar de que não pretendiam coloca-lo no jogo e então “veio a Sony chegando sem ninguém esperar e propondo o financiamento do personagem”... patético... Apenas vejam como exemplo o LEGO Marvel, Super Heroes 1/2 e Avengers, Marvel vs Capcom Infinity (todos multi plataforma) e também o Ultimate Alliance 3 exclusivo do Switch, o aranha está EM TUDO.
    NÃO ACEITEM ISSO, NÃO ACEITEM MIGALHAS, NÃO APOIEM ESSE TIPO DE PRÁTICA NA INDUSTRIA, POIS SÓ TENDE A PIORAR....

    Fora a exclusividade e otimização porca, nota-se um desrespeito gigantesco com os jogadores de PC.
    Eu nunca me senti tão destratado, apenas por ter escolhido uma plataforma diferente para jogar...
    ________________________________________

    4- CONCLUSÃO
    Marvel Avengers é um jogo medíocre, sem alma e sem amor, feito nas pressas com o objetivo de lucrar o MAXIMO de dinheiro possível, apoiando-se no nome “Vingadores” que é extremamente popular no mundo todo e sugando os fãs o máximo que podem.
    (Acordos de exclusividades e microtransações já anunciadas comprovam isso.)

    Uma pena, pois o sonho da Kamala de conhecer seus heróis era parecido com o meu..
    Quem dera poder conhecê-los através de sua gameplay e de uma experiencia agradável com cada personagem.
    Um sonho de infância que é destruído com tanto egoísmo e práticas sem sentido.

    É como se a Kamala quisesse conhecer seus heróis.. mas um deles está preso em um lugar distante sem acesso, e os outros estão completamente deturpados e usados como máquinas de fazer dinheiro....

    Beyond the game play as a whole I'm going to criticize the way this game is being advertised and monetized. With companies like Verizon and Intel having skins in the game like one big advertisement for the companies and only giving people who use these products/services the chance to get these special skins. PS4 users are also getting Spider-man locked beyond some terrible console exclusivity. Insomniac already showed how to make a proper super hero video game and now Square Enix is shoveling out this embarrassment as an easy cash grab.

    I would only recommend this game to someone who is purely looking to play it for the story, but honestly no matter how good the story is you'll be suffering through the excruciating painful combat.    … Expand

    The story is pretty poorly written, but considering Marvel comics haven’t been the paragons of good writing recently it wasn’t surprising. Ms. Marvel is the merriest of Mary Sues, she is instantly loved by all the main cast, is caring, confident, intelligent, wise, powerful, and competent from the very beginning, when she is a child. Her story arch is summed up with the phrase, “Good isn’t something you are, it’s something you do”. It’s ironic because she isn’t a good character. The rest of the story is inoffensively predictable, nothing will surprise you.

    The game as whole is a glitchy mess, the default camera angle make combat unbearable as your camera gets dragged into the ground. Use the wide combat camera in the settings. If you want to know more about how the game plays, go play some destiny and that should give you a good idea. I refuse to put more effort describing this games combat than the developers put into it.

    Micro transactions are atrocious. $20 for a single skin is insane for a game I just spent $60 on. Remove them.

However, I really didn't find Khamala Khan to be a stellar addition to the Avengers. She has some great qualities to her character. For one, she's very down to earth and relates to the audience extremely well, and she seems to have realistic reactions when it comes to meeting other cast members or confronting conflict. On the other hand she can be quite whiney and annoying at times too. This all goes without saying I would overlook this if the gameplay were something of substance. It really isn't. They start you out with the Hulk as your second character with Khamala, or Ms. Marvel, and he has the most rudimentary moveset out of the whole cast. The most entertaining was definitely Iron Man, but even he is lacking in the fun factor. The Batman games have a good "Beat em up" system in place where you feel like countering and dodging enemies is calculated, but here it just feels like you're mashing the heavy or light attacks. Not to mention that 99% of the missions are either defend an area or "go get those guys over there". Not very fun. I honestly didn't get past the first half of the game because it became too difficult at a certain point. I was only on normal difficulty and had tried going back to earlier missions just to get some more loot in order to make my character more powerful in hopes of making the level easier. I watched YouTubers play it and it seemed normal to them. The mission that really made me lose it is where you are infiltrating a complex as Iron Man, fully suited up, and you have to stand in a very small circle in order to hack into the computer system and get into the building. The circle is so small and hard to defend that I frequently found myself outside flying around, as that is Iron Man's main feature, he can attack at a distance and nimbly juke out your opponents. I realized too late that the enemies can also capture the circle and I failed over and over and over again. After an hour or so on this single mission I simply stopped the game. I hadn't been extremely entertained with the game in the first place since it is so repetitive but this was the straw that broke the camels back. Also a minor thing I would have overlooked if the gameplay was better but the menu/homebase system is so slow and I found myself wandering around the helicarrier trying to find each individual place to either equip armor or even load up another mission. It's all too complicated and slow. I would just try and play the campaign but it takes up so much time just with explaining how every single mechanic works. To their credit, it is very intricate and although I tried paying attention I still don't fully understand all of it.
    Overall, I really was disappointed with this game, especially because it appeared on the surface to be quite good. The first mission was the highlight of my experience and it was all downhill from there.    … Expand

    C'est extrêmement très décevant le jeu n'est pas hauteur digne d'un Marvel's Avengers .
    Pour moi le jeu est a refaire de A à Z et retiré la charge a Square Enix ( Crystal Dynamics, Eidos Montréal, Crystal Northwest, Nixxes Software) pour le donné a un autre studios qui sauras en faire un jeu digne d'un Marvel's Avengers surtout au niveaux de l'histoire .

    - Apres niveaux point positif :
    - l'IA est pas trop mal
    - on ressent bien la puissance des coup de certains personnage
    - gameplay des perso pas mal pour certains
    - ...

    point négatif :
    - jeu très pauvre
    - beug
    - gameplay et ressentie de certain perso catastrophique
    - histoire très limite et peu travaillé
    - histoire trop courte
    - trop répétitive
    - jeu pas fini
    - gameplay du jeu en général
    - performance
    - loot , farm

    As many have said, I can't find any LIFE in this game. Some passion, some originality or some sincerity.
    Anything. Nope. Just bland, lifeless characters in bland, lifeless missions taking place in bland, lifeless levels.

    Also, it's got more bugs than a 3rd world country bathroom.

    Such a shame that the beloved Avengers were subject to a marketing ploy that is this game. If you are over 10 years old and are any kind of gamer above the most casual level, avoid this waste of time.

    The executive douchebags who decided to make it a "live service" game should be ashamed.

There is also an optimization problem, i'm getting fps drops in some places. If i collect it, it was a terrible production. I hope Square Enix and Marvel never work together again.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I had not played video-games for a while. It was weird to see how much content had to be unlocked through repetitive gameplay or purchasing credits/content. The repetitive gameplay would be more bearable if the levels were more varied with different bosses. I beat the campaign but I do not have an interest in same gameplay experience with different characters or worse different skins. It would be better if they stripped this game down to its core campaign, added the other characters to the main story, and unlocked more content up front or more quickly through combat. You can tell there were some good ideas but this game is bloated and a lot of cool content requires an unreasonable time commitment unless you spend money or simply do not care about the time sink.… Expand

    As a lifelong Marvel fan, I desperately wanted to love this game. I found the early previews alarming but still purchased it on the strength of a review by a streamer I trust. Having finished the single-player campaign, I can say with confidence that this game is a mess.

    The good: the characters play and feel like they ought to. There is no PVP mode forcing character balance, and that's    As a lifelong Marvel fan, I desperately wanted to love this game. I found the early previews alarming but still purchased it on the strength of a review by a streamer I trust. Having finished the single-player campaign, I can say with confidence that this game is a mess.

    The good: the characters play and feel like they ought to. There is no PVP mode forcing character balance, and that's a good thing. It also avoids the pitfall of using heroes' powers as add-ons, instead of making them the base gameplay. Sadly, that's the end of the good points.

    The bad: the story is based on the flimsiest of premises. It also relies heavily on Ms. Marvel, a character I didn't care for before, but after playing this game, have grown to really despise. Her power set is derivative and her backstory appears to be some Marvel writer/editor's self-insert dream. The supervillains, regular enemies, and stage backdrops are extremely limited, 3-5 of each. The loot system is not compelling in any way. It uses the standard white-green-blue-purple-orange color system to denote rarity, but none of that seems to make much difference. There are no cool cantrips or bonuses, and no buffs on the loot seem to do anything. The multiplayer matchmaking is awful, and for a game that is built around playing with other people to accomplish objectives, that alone is killer. The load times are also some of the worst in recent memory, rivaling Horizon: Zero Dawn for most time spent not playing.

    The ugly: So, so many bugs. Others have said this game should have stayed in development for another 1-2 months. That's being nice. They should have taken at least six months to polish this up. So many graphical bugs, disappearing loot, rolled back microtransactions, game-breaking gameplay bugs...you name it, Avengers has a bug for it. For a game to have had such a big beta test, it is astounding that it was allowed to release. It's bad enough that going forward, I would never pre-order a SquareEnix/Crystal Dynamics game. Yes, it's bad enough to be that drastic.

    Further ugliness: microtransactions. I might get some hate for this, but I'm ok with microtransactions as long as they are done right. I have 1200+ hours sunk in Marvel Heroes and spent heavily on that game. Even more so for games like Marvel Future Fight. But even I couldn't justify spending real money on what Avengers has on offer. $14 for a single skin, and of course you can't just buy $14 in currency, you have to buy $20. The skins are unimpressive for the most part. There's also a lot of 'garbage' items for sale like emotes (have yet to see one used) and nameplates for your online profile. There are skins and the like available for 'free', as long as you grind through a character's "character card". Unfortunately, many bugs revolve around undoing card progress, so good luck with that.

    Overall, the game has some appeal for big Marvel fans like myself, but the many limitations, missteps, and severe lack of polish cast an inescapable pall over the proceedings. There are is a lot of potential here, and future updates could pave the way to a really enjoyable Marvel experience. I just can't recommend it in its current state. As this game is supposed to be a 'games as a service' platform, maybe they should have just released it for free. Regardless, wait for a severe price drop if you are curious, or at least wait until you see that patches have addressed the bulk of the dozens upon dozens of bugs.    … Expand

I think they should had more content and fixed some issues before release. In this state it looks like they want to use the Avengers franchise and its appeal to just get extra money out of gamers. The story is not related to the movies and starts on A-Day which is a celebration of the Avengers getting a new headquarter and a helicarrier powered by a Terrigen crystal (Mutagen that activates random superpowers in humans that have Inhuman genes / ancestors). Because of some tragic events the crystal is destroyed, a Terrigen mist is created and the Avengers disbanded. Years later superheroes are treated as criminals while an organization named A.I.M. (comic fans will say uh oh now) is tasked in policing and healing the victims of the “Inhuman Disease”. You start as Kamala Khan on her heroes journey. The story itself is decent but some events / twists you can see coming from miles away and there are many out of character moments or characters feel like lesser versions of the originals. Kamala Khan itself is a great character and I like that they chose her (She won me over in all the years). Later you get more characters to use with a good variety. However the gameplay is mixed. There are some annoying bugs, crashes and the AI is not really good. The missions have not much variety and they should have more villains as enemies. You notice the games as a service approach. It is a role model for repetitive gameplay. The loot is also unrewarding as it is the character customization. I expected more and most fans agree. Then there is the monetization. There is so much stuff to buy and there were paid gaming passes for each character. This is a shameless approach and there is no hiding or defending this. The interest for the game is already dwindling towards zero and I read that Square-Enix had lost somewhere between 48 to 65 million dollars from different sources. They also failed in adding more content as soon as possible to stop the downwards spiral as the next (content) DLC was delayed. Even as fan of Square-Enix I said they deserved it. Overall this is more of a money grab than a videogame. Avoid it as it is not worth your time and especially your money.… Expand

    Alright, let's do this.

    Avengers pulled a fast one on me. The beta was fun. It used a couple of the earliest missions to snare me. I preordered and finished the campaign today. The first 5 hours were some of the best gaming I've had in a long time. And then the next 7 were among the worst. I forced myself to finish it because I paid 80 bucks for it.

Had I received it for any less than 60, I would've just given up.

    I loved the story, aside from a few plot points specifically designed to make characters do blatantly stupid things. I would've rather watched the campaign as a movie like Avengers Confidential. Mostly because the game play itself is either buggy or inherently flawed. I'm talking about dodging and evading. It seems to not do a damn thing.

    And then there's getting saddled with an underpowered hero for missions. Those were insanely frustrating. Getting hit 3 or 4 times and put down just became annoying. There WERE side quests to try to boost people but let's talk about those next. They're terrible.

    Waves of enemies, capture the point, whatever. The load times don't justify how short and ultimately pointless they are. Then let's toss in some Destiny style bounties that have no good point to them...and a gear system that doesn't add cosmetics (along with being so totally generic, they are meaningless) and you've got a lot of problems.

    I bought for the campaign. It was at least 13 hours long (would've been 10 I think if some of the systems in the game worked properly). I wish that the game play hadn't tainted the story for me because I was really loving it until I had to struggle bus through their bad systems (jumping and wall running was probably the worst).

    I would return this if I could. I'll likely never load it up again. Regardless of whatever 'plan' they have for keeping it going for years, it won't justify grinding with a game play system that's only a shuffle step above Anthem's horrible setup.

    All around, I say this is a straight do NOT buy. Save yourself from the frustration OR let them work out the bugs they should've been working on since the first closed beta but ignored.    … Expand

    Marvel's Spider-Man (and spin-off Miles Morales) on PS4 and PS5 is a marvel of a game. Marvel's Avengers is the exact opposite of a marvelous game.

    The problem is that Crystal Dynamics wanted to make a live service game without knowing how to actually make it. And because they designed it as a GaaS, there is no skill in this game's combat system, unlike the 2 games developed by    Marvel's Spider-Man (and spin-off Miles Morales) on PS4 and PS5 is a marvel of a game.

    The problem is that Crystal Dynamics wanted to make a live service game without knowing how to actually make it. And because they designed it as a GaaS, there is no skill in this game's combat system, unlike the 2 games developed by Insomniac Games. You just have to deal damage to sponges, unleash powers and ultimates, and heal yourself, just like you would if you were playing a MMO. This design decision contradicts the very nature of superheroes. Can you imagine, for example, the Hulk being kicked in the ass by puny robots one quarter his size and them not being smashed with one hit? Or Thor swinging Mjolnir into human enemies and them still being alive after the hit? That's what we see in this game.

    I managed to play just the intro (which is easily the best part of the game) and a couple early missions where I had to deal with waves of spawning and re-spawning enemies in enclosed arenas for an eternity. Then I had enough. And that little girl Kamala Khan aka Miss Marvel is actually very annoying, on top of being a forced diversity/woke/SJW BS.

    On PS4 performance is capped at 30 fps, but good luck with all the 20 fps drops when the action really heats up with dozens of enemies on screen.

    Yeah, I hate MMOs and loot-based games such as Destiny and The Division. But I'm pretty sure even people who like these genres would really dislike Marvel's Avengers. And I'm surprised we got a GaaS game by Square Enix instead of EA or Activision. I just wish Disney had allowed Sony to make an Avengers game.    … Expand

    The game's uninspired and boringly repetitive combat system combined with a pointless loot system, manage to make even a cast as diverse as the Avengers feel samey.

    Marvel's Avengers has some weird quirks to it. On one hand, it can be somewhat fun as a beat-em-up style game, but on the other, it can be a frustratingly micro-transaction-filled experience, with a game design that doesn't fit the context of the game.

When I first played this game I was hoping for level designs similar to that of Spider-Man PS4, and the Arkham games, but unfortunately this game is most similar to that of Destiny and other games where your goal is to grab loot. Which is a weird style of game to rip off for an Avengers game, but even then this game fails at making the loot useful. I never felt like the loot was actually worth picking up, and overall the base of the online component of the game was just... useless to be honest. Now, many people have been saying that this game has a good enough story to warrant a 6 or 7/10, but I don't agree with those people at all. The story isn't bad, but introduces things in a weird way. Like most of the story just kinda shows up, and if you don't read a lot of comics I can see how some of the story can be really confusing. I also feel like this game should've had more villains and boss fights in it, but it only has 2 supervillains. Which is pretty underwhelming. Of course the main problem with the game is the bugs. I have experienced so many glitches that made me restart checkpoints, and tons of frame rate dips, as well as pop-in, the technical issues that were shown in this game were proof in my opinion that this game should've been delayed and better tested before release. Overall, I had some fun with this game, but it wasn't a lot, and I feel really disappointed by this game in general. If I was given the choice I'd probably give it like 2.75/10, but I think 3/10 is fine enough, if you don't care about technical problems, and just want a basic button masher with mediocre combat... I don't know why you would, but I would say that this an okay game for you, but if you're looking for a high quality marvel game... well this ain't it, Overall it was a very disappointing experience… Expand

    It could’ve been a great single player title. The publisher chose to go down the game as a service path though, and those who prefer to play solo need to tackle run-of-the-mill co-op missions. The multiplayer on the other hand is messy, chaotic and in the long run boring. When the developers manage to fix the most pressing bugs and find a way to bring more variety to co-op, this might become a solid game. Right now, I can only recommend it to the biggest fans of the Avengers. [11/2020, p.26]

    This is the perfect example of "Games as a Service" done right. Marvel's Avengers offers up a superb campaign story to play through that is promised to be expanded on in the future. The gameplay may be repetitive, but it includes just enough to keep players interested and invested in the endgame content that is available now to keep this game going until the next step in its roadmap. The possibilities and potential in the future here are hugely exciting.

    There have been plenty of moments during my time with Marvel's Avengers where I’ve genuinely had a great time. But this game keeps finding ways to drag itself down- at times it almost feels like it goes out of its way to do so. There’s just so much here that I can’t overlook, no matter how hard I may try. An unnecessary and broken loot system, a litany of horrible technical issues, uninspired and one-note mission design, and a story that fails just as much as it succeeds- it doesn’t matter how mindlessly fun the combat is, it isn't enough to overcome such a heavy list of problems.
