Marvel's Avengers is a 2020 action-adventure game developed by Crystal Dynamics and originally published by Square Enix. The game was released for PlayStation 4, Stadia, Windows, and Xbox One on 4 September 2020. It was also released for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S on 18 March 2021 (with PlayStation 4 and Xbox One players able to upgrade for free).
Based on the Marvel Comics superhero team the Avengers, Marvel's Avengers is mainly inspired by the Marvel Cinematic Universe's iteration of the group. Additionally, it incorporates elements from the team's comic book. The plot follows Inhuman teenager Kamala Khan, who gains superpowers during A-Day, a celebratory day for the Avengers, which ends in tragedy following a terrorist attack. Blamed for the disaster, the Avengers disband and allow science corporation A.I.M. to take their place. Five years later, when A.I.M. threatens to eliminate all Inhuman individuals, Kamala embarks on a quest to reassemble the Avengers to combat this new enemy.
Marvel's Avengers is played from a third-person perspective and has both single-player and multiplayer modes; it features an online co-op mode, allowing players to assemble a team of heroes of their own. The initial roster consisted of Kamala Khan / Ms. Marvel, Tony Stark / Iron Man, Steve Rogers / Captain America, Bruce Banner / Hulk, Thor, and Natasha Romanoff / Black Widow, with more characters being added in free post-launch updates, which also added story expansions and new regions to be explored. Each hero possesses a variety of costume customization features, as well as the capacity to upgrade their powers and abilities using a skill tree.
Marvel's Avengers received mixed reviews upon release, with critics praising its combat, graphics and story, but criticizing its repetition, lack of substantial content, user interface, and technical issues. Despite strong initial sales, the game was a commercial failure. On 20 January 2023, it was announced that support will end for Marvel's Avengers and it will be removed from digital storefronts on 30 September 2023. Crystal Dynamics released the last content update on 31 March 2023.

I read through the build options. I cannot believe they are putting an Intel arc 750 in for the starting PC option. Those gpus are constantly requiring updates for games to run on them and are supported by a ton of games when they release. Absolutely not the experience you want for your first PC.

Oh no, the sub-par discount avengers will be gone? Fuck me was I hyped after the spiderman game, it was brutally amazing. I thought if there was a time and day where they could give me a fleshed out iron man it would be this one. Hell Disney infinity basically gave me a versatile flying, shooting fighter jet that felt pretty much like iron man. They could not go wrong! Yet they did... All the original non-mcu suits sucked. I was so disappointed. Literally all I wanted was red and gold muscle suit spandex with repulsors. But no!

remember that Square Enix lost millions on this game. I am talking about 60 million or more. FF7 First Soldier failed and so did Babylon's Fall. Square Enix wanted live service games so much they kept making them after they kept failing left and right. Losses became so bad they had to sell their entire western studios alongside their IPs to make up for it so the stockholders didn't take out the SE leadership.......which ended up happening after Forspoken failed even harder. CEO left and entire studio folded back into nobodies.

I bought it on this sale of 4$, i never tried it before when it had those performance issues and all that, so having all of the content available for this very low sum of money is actually a pretty good deal, i enjoy the narrative so far but not so much the level design and the gameplay mechanics like not being able to switch between characters mid game or having a clear way to upgrade the characters, the amount of stuff to modify, buy and use is so out of order that you give up at some point to keep up with the logic of the game, i don't get why every character has to have power levels that are very inconsistent between the different characters where hulk's powerful punches can be weaker than natasha's kicks, or how they're all incredibly indiscernible when it comes to trying to pick a character and go about a mission, because the mission design absolutely doesn't care about the different characters and their own skills they're virtually all the same and will all get you the same result when it could have gone something like having stealth missions as black widow or aerial battles with planes or drones as iron man, on top of being repetitive as hell the mission design gives little to justify putting in game time after a few missions because you will be asked to do the same type of objectives over and over again, the redeeming qualities i can highlight are the skills, the number of outfits, and a good narrative (i enjoyed it at least), so all in all I'd give this game a 6/10.

So if any one who hasn't played this game, give a shot. I think you will have a great time playing it. After all you get all those goodies for only four dollars.

I too get motion sick when playing games. I've found a few other tricks to help: play in a well-lit room, stay hydrated, don't play when tired, and lower the mouse sensitivity. Oh, also, reminding myself to tilt the camera up, so the horizon line is in the middle of the screen or lower. Your glasses may also be contributing to the problem if the focal point is above or below your natural horizon. I've found that cheaper glasses (without customized focal points) make motion sickness worse. You can test if you have a focal length problem by holding a string out from the end of your nose. If you focus on the end in your hand, but can see the string cross itself, that's a sign that your eyes have a focus problem.

Quick Cons and Pros List: Cons- 1. Repetitive boring gameplay loop with the same enemies that require no variance in tactics. 2. Gear effects dont matter, you have to equip the gear with the higher Power number to do missions and you're gonna replace it almost immediately. 3. Bugs and menu issues killed the pacing. 4. Matchmaking made no attempt to put you with people similar in level. Pros- The story is pretty decent even the dlc. I found myself wanting to skip the gameplay so i could watch more cutscenes. 2. Unique fighting styles. While some characters were similar to others, most of them had unique mechanics that you could customize. 3. Tons of cosmetic options. 4. It looks great.

I actually really enjoyed Marvel’s Avengers, I’ll probably knockout the Platinum with this little player base boost. The main campaign is worth the pocket change alone, but the real flaws came in the live-service promises that were absolutely not met. I think Spider-Man exclusivity also played a big factor in turning off players from the jump. Also it’s not well streamlined at all but the PLAY NOW button actually takes you straight to end campaign status whereas what new players should be doing is Operations, then Reassemble to begin the vanilla Campaign and proceeding DLC.

I picked it up at the $4 price point, and having all DLC and Cosmetics I’d say it was worth the $4. Is it the best game I’ve ever played? No, but there absolutely is fun to be had here. You can play the game completely single player and it makes it an even more enjoyable experience. The characters themselves have their own way of gameplay which doesn’t dull out their inevitable introduction. The game itself is beautiful. If you look past everything that originally came with (or lack there of) the game then you can learn to appreciate it now that it’s de-listed. It could’ve been so much more, but for $4, if you’re looking to kill time and just want some mindless fun, you’ll find it here.

Honestly even ignoring the repetitive live service slop, just the fact that they locked literally the most popular marvel superhero in history away for only playstation players made this a dealbreaker. I dont like buying a game, then immediately being reminded in menus about how I'm missing some content, or need to spend more money to get X or Y. That empty slot in the character selection where spiderman should be is blatantly obvious. Also the characters they felt the need to add... really? Kate freaking bishop, jane foster and kamalah kahn...? A bunch of modern z list nobodies who dont sell? Instead of ghost rider, blade, doctor strange, storm, wolverine, sandman, daredevil, she hulk, deadpool, and namor?? Theres a MILLION better characters who could be put in an avengers game over those bland nobodies. At 4 dollars it's still a definite NO.

The failure of the live service approach always overshadows how incredible each character plays with their own unique combat styles and abilities. There's a fantastic game buried under bad strategic decisions and a joke of a live service model. For $3.99, if you have any interest in Marvel characters in a third person brawler, you will absolutely get your value and then some. Or just save your money for Spider-Man 2.

Imagine how big/content of a Avengers game we could have had if they had made a game in the vain of Spider-Man/Arkham series/Gotg/gta5(3 characters you can switch in a single player campaign). with the budget and man power they had we could probably have had an almost full interconnected campaign for each of the heroes if they didn't have to spend i would think insane resources on online/server tech/balancing/R&D/maintenance/live ops/patches/customer support(compared to single player). Im not an expert but i assume making a live service MMO-lite game on multiple platforms especially with how tight Xbox and PlayStation is with updates and certification, for a studio is probably a huge amount of resources and requires A LOT of iteration and highly specialized roles/tech. But i could be totally overestimating all this also.
