@MegaVel91 LOL, so true! In fact, it's probably made to slip us up. To make us think they really can't do anything, then... Bam! Marnie catches a Legendary and she's the final Challenger on the Elite Four. That being said, it's refreshing to see non-world (demolishing, liberating, altering, thefts, etc.) bad-guys.
@Kriven I feel that Rocket being his own character would have 3 problems: 1. Too small (the smallest playable character/it would be hard to see him in a Warriors game where you must fight multiple enemies) 2. His Moveset (Rocket doesn't really have a defined moveset/and if he did it would be too similar to Star-Lord's) 3. # of ranged Characters (there aren't that many ranged characters in the game and having one of those be Rocket kinda complicates your Team Customization early on/not to mention they compiled those 2 guys as one to accommodate the 4-player magic as the targeted mechanic with of course the Guardians of the Galaxy)
@Heavyarms55 Not gonna lie (I'm a Comic book dude, not MCU) every time I play this game with my little brother (Comics were more popular during my time than his) he makes comparisons to the MCU. I have to keep reminding him that certain characters are way more powerful in their comic variants. This is the only game where I actually felt like a hero (there were even a couple of times where I referred to myself as that hero). Like I said not gonna lie I really felt like playing the Avengers Theme while playing the game and saying "Avengers Assemble!". Heh, I'm such a nerd!
@Yorumi I thought the new animation helps convey things like fast-paced movement and more emotion (like Pokemon Sun/Moon the anime) it makes sense. Kill La Kill did the exact same thing and it worked just fine!
@Reydn while I can't deny that the whole season pass thing works (I'm a fortnite player on switch so I know). Nintendo usually likes to keep their free-to-play games without that feature. You should see Super Mario Run as an example of this. However, it's still early so who knows!
@SmileMan64 I was excited to hear there was other characters in the game and not just Dr. Mario and Dr. Luigi! Here's hoping for Dr. Wario (he got this title as a spinoff micrograms from WarioWare) and Dr. Kamek (a wizard and a doctor, what's not to like?)!
@MotionMan If they did, what theme would you be interested in? Something like the super expressive Tetris DS game (the one that had cool games running in the back like Mario, Zelda, and Metroid) that's what I want!
@Kameken @AndreaF96 @Yorumi @LightBeam I apologize I kind've misread the whole situation... I thought they just 'couldn't do it'. I'm sorry for giving all of you guys headaches.
@Kameken @LightBeam Like I said earlier this isn't the final build of the game. You can't make assumptions until we have the final, complete, edition of this game. You seriously think making moving, walking, attacking, animation models is easy? You do know how many Pokemon this game has, right? @Yorumi to make new models for every Pokemon in the game would be insane. I don't even think the Switch could handle something like that.
@HipsterInkling The game is still under development. This isn't even final footage, you can't make assumptions. Dude, it's Pokemon, of course, there's gonna be a lot of the same themes and elements. It's not lazy to cater to the needs of millions of fans of all ages and satisfy everyone. Pokemon is supposed to be like this to ensure gameplay experience is good consistently with all of their games. If you expected an entirely new game with all new Pokemon and nothing old, it wouldn't be nearly as good as it is now. To each his own though, maybe Pokemon isn't for you...
@BlueBlur101 Hearing that classic Theme... Seeing an MP gauge almost made me faint... The fact that they have past HERO's including Erdrick... and of course, Summer 2019 makes me feel even better! (P.S. Did you see that the iconic Slime is featured in his Taunts?)

Re: Gallery: Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 Playable Characters - Full Roster
@Caryslan I have no idea man

Re: Gallery: Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 Playable Characters - Full Roster

@shonenjump86 I don't understand why he isn't playable seeing as how he was in the previous game(s)
Re: Gallery: Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 Playable Characters - Full Roster
@rallydefault Gambit (from my memory) was only in that movie
X-men Origins:Wolverine
I won't spoil his role in the movie in case you haven't seen it.
Re: Gallery: Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 Playable Characters - Full Roster
@eltomo Ms. Marvel has a single size-change move it's her Alliance Extreme Attack (She Embiggens herself and stomps on all her enemies).
Re: Gallery: Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 Playable Characters - Full Roster
@AugustusOxy I hope you're talking about Captain Marvel

Re: Studio Trigger Reveals Its Stunning Opening Animation For Shantae 5
@Yorumi I thought the new animation helps convey things like fast-paced movement and more emotion (like Pokemon Sun/Moon the anime) it makes sense. Kill La Kill did the exact same thing and it worked just fine!
Re: Random: Was Shantae The Half-Genie Hero Just Teased For Smash Bros. Ultimate?
Shantae already has a Spirit in Ultimate (and its not a fighter spirit) so she cannot be a character without removing it from the game.
Re: Studio Trigger Reveals Its Stunning Opening Animation For Shantae 5
@FlyingFoxy Anime with visuals like that merit 14+ rating not 12.
