ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!

Must we get these dumb made up characters? Seriously? I’m not spending lots of money here for a stupid 3/5 Spider-Man DINOSAUR.

Marvel is rich with its own characters like Sasquatch, Shaman, Hercules, Thena, Arabian Knight. Heck, even Armadillo would be preferable right now.

My point is that I…and I’m sure A LOT of other fans who pay good money in this game want to see you use Marvel’s characters instead of the **** you developers are putting out there.

If this keeps up, you can delete my user profile in the game because I’ll permanently quit. My money is too valuable to waste on garbage like this. Start being serious or you’ll find a lot more people getting outraged and possibly leaving.

    I don’t care, I just want fun and useful skill sets to use. I’m way last caring who they are. 95% of the characters I’d never heard of anyway.

    This is a genuine question with no snark intended; if this character was revealed as 3/5* Sasquatch, you'd be ok with it?

    Did this really need its own thread? Spider-Saurus Rex has a character thread already.

    Not as a dinosaur, but the character Sasquatch and others are much beloved and well established. If people’s are fine with this, more power to them.

    5 star would need to be a symbiote though. Is that canon?

    In retrospect, my other post from the other thread about the same character was too harsh, and didn't really say what I meant to say.

    What I should have said is that comics can be goofy trifles for children, and they can also be serious stories for adults. They've always been both things. I feel like the attitude that comic books and comic book stories should ONLY be for adults is a new thing, and something that's not good, and I might have seen that where it didn't necessarily exist.

    Comics can be fun or silly AND serious, sometimes both at the same time. We shouldn't dismiss the silly stuff though, because Marvel, especially, has always been a big tent that offers different things for different people. I think MPQ does a pretty good job of mixing things up between new and old, comics and MCU, silly and serious.

    I read a few comics with symbiotes, both venom movies and each time the "willing suspension of disbelief" disappear very fast. I heard there were good comics on them out there but from my pov they are just badly written and designed parasites.

    I get that in the MCU, spider man is like the last bankable character because they are mass producing **** so devs are probably pressured into these spider pokemons, but I would much prefer getting 10 versions of wolverine rather than this string of goofy symbiotes. (and please no symbiote wolverine)

    their only saving grace is they seem not very good so far, so little incentive to play them. I hope latest one also turns out to be super bad

    Can't say that I love this new take either. But I look at it this way: I want there to be another 10 years of MPQ. So yes, there will be many more of these gimmicky faux characters. But that also means there's plenty of time for rebalances, completing feeder chains, creating canon characters, and plug in the few missing secondary characters.

    Insert plug for a 5* Mystique.

    I get it OP. Pretty much how I feel every time the new 5(now 3 and 5) is announced and it isn't Red Skull. And yes, Red Skull NEEDS to be a 5, not a 4*.

    I like these goofy ideas personally. and this one isn't unique to the game, it just isn't a classic like Omega Red...

    Think on the bright side, it could have been another wolverine.

    well red skull could be released as a 2*

    I would be perfectly fine with a new wolverine, with proper buffing of existing oml
