Glad the Destiny crowd is getting there game saved and updates again, but I wonโt ever support that side of the community!
I seen how hateful ya are towards Marathon players and we did nothing to deserve it imo
Iโm gonna say this because some of the discourse around Marvelโs Wolverine is getting ridiculous. You can criticize the game. You can dislike parts of it. You can give it a 6/10 if thatโs genuinely how you feel. Thatโs what reviews are for. But this whole โWolverine is a disappointment because it isnโt Spider-Manโ narrative needs to fucking stop.
ITโS WOLVERINE.
Insomniac did not spend years developing Wolverine just to give us Spider-Man with claws. This character has a completely different identity, tone, combat style, story, and gameplay fantasy. Spider-Man is about swinging through a massive city, stopping crimes, doing side activities, exploring an open world and constantly moving. Wolverine is a brutal character-driven experience built around Logan. Why the hell are we acting like the game failing to copy Spider-Manโs exact structure is automatically a flaw?
And now people see a Metacritic/OpenCritic score around the high 70s and suddenly itโs โMID,โ โFLOP,โ โINSOMNIAC FELL OFF,โ and โFIVE YEARS FOR THIS?โ Come on.
A score in the 70s doesnโt mean the game is fucking garbage. There are reviews praising the combat, visuals, performances, atmosphere, characterization and story while other reviewers criticize repetition, pacing, exploration and narrative choices. THAT IS CALLED A GAME HAVING STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES. Some reviewers are giving it 9s and 10s while others are giving it 6s. You can acknowledge the flaws without pretending the entire game is worthless.
And yes, some of the criticism is completely fair. If the combat gets repetitive for you, SAY THAT. If you wanted more exploration, SAY THAT. If the story doesnโt land for you, SAY THAT. Those are actual criticisms. But โit isnโt as big as Spider-Manโ is not automatically a criticism. โIt doesnโt have the same open-world scaleโ isnโt automatically a criticism. Wolverine DOES NOT NEED TO BE SPIDER-MAN.
And Iโm especially tired of people throwing around โfive years of developmentโ like that automatically means Insomniac owed everybody a perfect 10/10 masterpiece.
Five years means people spent FIVE YEARS of their lives making this game. Artists. Animators. Writers. Programmers. Designers. Voice actors. Engineers. QA testers. Everybody who put their time into bringing Logan into Insomniacโs Marvel universe.
You donโt have to worship them. You donโt have to agree with every design decision. But at least respect the fucking work.
Insomniac gave Spider-Man an entire gaming identity that people still compare everything against. Now they finally get the opportunity to give Wolverine that same treatment, and some fans immediately look at the game and say, โWhy isnโt this Spider-Man?โ
BECAUSE ITโS WOLVERINE.
Let Logan have his own game.
Stop demanding that every Insomniac Marvel game become another Spider-Man. Stop treating a 77โ80 aggregate like a funeral. Stop letting a review score decide whether YOU are allowed to enjoy a game. And stop acting like criticism and appreciation are mutually exclusive.
You can say โthis game has flawsโ AND โIโm grateful Insomniac made this.โ
Both can be true.
After years of waiting, we finally have an Insomniac Wolverine game. A studio that already gave us some of the biggest Marvel games ever actually decided to take Logan and build an entire experience around him.
Iโm going to appreciate that.
If you donโt like the game, thatโs fine.
If the combat isnโt for you, thatโs fine.
If you wanted a bigger world, thatโs fine.
If you think the story couldโve been better, THATโS FINE.
But donโt sit here and call the entire game trash simply because it didnโt become Spider-Man with claws.
Let Wolverine be Wolverine.
And maybe before everybody starts screaming โFLOP,โ actually PLAY THE FUCKING GAME.
