    So dissapointing. It could be much more.. It would be much better without looter brawler and co-op. Should be just single player story based game.

    I knew going into this game it wasn’t gonna be good it just didn’t look any good but my brother wanted it for his birthday so I bought it for him (reluctantly) I played it because I really like super heroes and beat this game in about 2 days time I have no issues being wrong about things but this game I was not wrong about it was cringe, boring and repetitive as hell.

I couldn’t recommend this game to a single person unless they enjoy mindless repetition a cookie cutter story. I liked Kamala but some of her lines seriously ruined cutscenes and serious deliveries of other character lines when she starts fangirling on the spot. I thought some of the voice acting in the game was kinda bad I was really disappointed in Troy Baker I thought his portrayal of Bruce was bland and his character didn’t add anything to that game. I was a little bugged by Nolan North being in the game seeing as he usually uses his Nathan Drake voice in everything but surprisingly didn’t bother too much I thought Laura Bailey did a good job with Black Widow but Captain America easily the worst acted character in the game for him speaking completely took me out of the immersion. This game is one of the worst games I’ve played throughout this console generation. Please Square Enix don’t make another. Expand

    An absolute joke compared to the Arkham games and Spider-man on PS4. Who asked for a looting style superhero game, especially with substandard gameplay? Also, Kamala Khan is a completely lame character, just a knock off Mr. Fantastic with social justice thrown in. Granted, the writing for her character is better than the comics but next to the Avengers, she just pales in comparison. AAn absolute joke compared to the Arkham games and Spider-man on PS4.

    I'm not going to say this is a bad game .. it has some potential. What i will say is that I would recommend waiting 6 months to a year before purchasing the game. It is bug ridden and after 20 hours gets very repetitive. If you buy this in its current state, you will just be frustrated (because of the amount of bugs) and bored (due to the lack of variety in missions).

If you buy this in its current state, you will just be frustrated (because of the amount of bugs) and bored (due to the lack of variety in missions). The campaign isn't terrible, i quite enjoyed it but it only last around 12 hours. The endgame is where it just falls completely flat, it almost feels like there was no quality control put into the game. Too many bugs, releasing a game in this state should be outlawed. It makes Anthem look like game of the year. The gear/loot system has no cosmetic change to the character making it basically a pointless system just thrown in for whatever reason. The game feels like a chore to play and isn't worth 60 dollars. It could be good at some point but at the moment stay far away from it.

    EDIT: As of March 2022, game remains a cash grab. It's trash sorry. Poor suckers continue to play a game that only offers overpriced cosmetics.

    Repetitive, boring, story-line is full of BS. Playing on a game-pad is a never-stopping rumble mess.
    Nice graphics is the only good thing about this game.

    I think the most frustrating part of this game is that it dangles in front of you “what it could be”. Just think if they had made this a linear game with hub areas like another Square product FFVII Remake, or say they decided to go open world like Insomniac’s Spider-Man.

    The Avengers deserved a better game than the bad level design, repetitive mission slogs, unsatisfying loot, loose and boring gameplay, and a bevy of micro-transactions. I mean hardly any bosses in the entire 12 hour-ish campaign? Maybe they find a way to make this game better in 2 years after adding a ton of content and refining their systems, but right now this is a shining example of the worst AAA video games has to offer in 2020.

    Believe it when people who played this game's beta thought the game was disappointing. The problems this game has are baked in and a full release wouldn't fix those problems.

It's buggy, has long load times, it's difficult to connect with your friends and the commercialization (like the Verizon skins with additional monetizations in the form of microtransactions) surrounding this game just leaves a bad taste in my mouth. This game occasionally has some great cinematic moments, but those are pretty few and far in between. it just feels like a case of "can we have the MCU at home?". I'm just extremely disappointed in what this game ended up being, don't buy. This game is completely emblematic of the problems with the industry with AAA games. Expand

    Being that the game is from Crystal Dynamics, I was expecting a fun, beautiful, single-player experience with an excellent story, sort of like the Tomb Raider or Uncharted games, but that's far from what I got.

Now, I understand that's not what the game was ever supposed to be. But that is what it should have been. Because what we got was an empty shell of a looter-brawler that quickly grows tiresome. It doesn't help that the main character is Elastigirl either. Maybe Disney should sue? Oh, and the enemies are bland not diverse whatsoever. It's just wave after wave of them. Nonetheless, it features repetitive gameplay, a poorly conceived story, worse versions of our favorite super heroes, glitches galore and much more. It's just so hard to stay with the story, especially when signposting is not the best and the main hub is wonky. I can't speak to the multiplayer, but the game is just below average, overall. I hope Crystal Dynamics goes back to focusing on games like their Tomb Raider series, because this is maddening. Expand

I've never seen level design quite this basic in any game let alone a AAA game that reportedly cost $200 million to make. Just a cheap anthem knockoff, and if your shooting to be a cheap anthem knockoff something is seriously wrong. I can't believe the only villians were taskmaster and Modok and if we are being generous we can count abomination. Modok (this isn't a spoiler they actually show it in the game's commercials) is the only with with an actual boss fight and it glitched out on me constantly, I still have no idea how I got past it. Constant audio issues and graphical glitches as well. This game needed another 2 years of development but instead they decided to release it as a "finished" product. Not to mention the multiple battle passes - oh yea have fun grinding those just take a look at the dailes/weeklies most are over the top obnoxious to finish and you have to do it for each character. It was designed that way on purpose to annoy people into buying microtransactions.

    TL;DR - 2 hours of gameplay stretched to 1000s because of repeating the same content over and over, worst level design in existence, horrible monetization schemes and scams. Utterly pathetic this is the best they could do.

    Was so excited, then the demo came out and I said ehh. Now I've had the game for 3 days now... What's the point of this game? It seems like a cluster of button mashing. All you do is guard areas and survive waves of enemy's gets oils within hours. A polished hollow game. I'd take my money back and wipe my ass before buying again

    This game will not make you feel like an Avenger. It's combat system is cluttered while the story and characters just feel cheap. It gets even worse with its repetitive missions/AI's and its cynical in-game microtransactions. I tried liking the game, but it was too passionless.

    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.
