Amazing to say this but I think I would play this. Looks like a fun game! Wolverine is a buy for me.

This got Out-Marvelled by GoW and the Cube of Destiny or whatever it is now.

 

[MAX PAYMENT]

Is it just me or does this seem like paired back spiderman combat on paired back, wide hallway style levels?

 

[nkarafo]

Sure, I guess if Debra Wilson has a great agent and she was guaranteed a prominent role on the Wolverine video game, one of the few B-roles that works out but isn't too distracting would be Callisto.

She would get a few strong lines, have her quick spotlight mission (which is probably early in the game considering how often they're showing it), then after he helps her, Wolverine leaves to continue his world-spanning adventure.

Sure. But i find it sad how we finally accepted DEI as the standard and we are now OK with it being "not too distracting".

Let's forget about adding something in a piece of art that aids said piece of art in a positive way. As long as it doesn't ruin it completely (only a little maybe) then it's OK.

 

[MMaRsu]

I guess according to some people , blood = gore

I think dismemberment = gore

And there barely is any

 

[DeepEnigma]

Jean looks premenopausal on her way to speak to the Brotherhood of Mutant's manager.

 

[Ironman_Bad]

All the blood has me aroused I really hope more games use that kind of blood tech going forward

 

[Parazels]

It's crazy how some people are hating on the trailer. Everything looks phenomenal both from a visual and gameplay standpoint.

Oh you misunderstand, I have never cared about people of different races taking different roles or alternate visions of classic stories.

I have only cared about good writing and bad writing. I merely typed that up for your sake, not mine. Debra Wilson does not bother me. She is just Troy Baker of the 2020s.

Oh my bad, that wasn't meant that way. I was being silly there lol.

 

[TKOFromTokyo]

It's cool it's so bloody, but then it's ruined by still doing that thing where the blood is only around for like 5 seconds before it starts fading away off the character killing the immersion of it, Bloodbourne figured out how to keep the blood around back in 2015, a game in 2026 with this much tech behind it should be able to as well.

Thank you! This is so distracting to me that I'd want a mode to significantly reduce the blood. Thankfully, it exists, but then I'm just playing basically a reskinned Spider-Man with ability limitations and blander combat. They should have gotten the blood right.

 

[splattered]

Im surprised, this game looks like absolute garbage. Was expecting it to be upgraded a lot from the leaks but it just looks so terrible... sigh.

It would be crazy if MS shows Blade and it outshines Wolvie.

 

[WellSheet]

They really nailed the eyepatch

 

[rodrigolfp]

 

[Fake]

The Pedro Pascal of video game.

 

[Black_Stride]

So is Kurt Wagner / Nightcrawler going to be in this or not? We got Mystique, not too far off from there to go.

Current timeline she is his Dad.
So would be the perfect month to have the general public learn that Mystique is a Dad and Destiny is the Mom.

Azazel kicked to the curb!

 

[samoilaaa]

yeah, some people on here are just miserable and hate on everything

no we just hate slop or we just have different taste in games , for me personally i have other games excited about , just to name a few

Phantom blade 0
blood of the dawnwalker
control resonant
onimusha way of the sword
warhammer RT - infinite museion
valor mortis
Ontos

see? we dont hate on everything , we just hate slop and wolverine looks like slop

 

[Ironman_Bad]

The more awesome ps5 only games that get shown the more negative bitterness you can expect its liken to average/ugly girls hating on the prom queen but it keeps the board entertaining

 

[IDKFA]

Because folks have become pussies?

There isnt even any gore lmao

Some guy got his leg sliced off. Not to mention claws going through the chin and out the skull.

How much gore do you want? Do you want Logan to disembowel people and wear their intestines around his neck?

 

[tr1p1ex]

I want Wolverine: Laufey.

One guy got his leg sliced off, wow!!!

Claws going through skin and skull but you dont actually SEE SHIT

There is no gore brother its all implied.

And yes I would like Logan to disembowel people.

When you are doing a fucking berserker barrage and you are slicing with adamantium claws, the enemies don't even react!! JUST BLOOD SPURTS OUT LMAO

Its so fucking weak dude.

Have u ever played Ninja Gaiden 2? Thats how it should be

 

[kindaGoth]

So do the outfits near instantly repair themselves?

Meh. I thought the gore was fine. Better than I expected anyway. My biggest gripe is one second Logan is covered in blood, then the next he's clean.

Oh well. At least nobody here is upset because Logan is killing people who made "poor career choices"

We Need To Talk About The Violence In That Wolverine Reveal

Worry not, this is no demand for sanitizing anything; it's an appeal to the craft

[FalsettoVibe]

I thought it looked amazing, surprised by the reactions here. Im falling out of touch?

You're perfectly fine. The forum is just getting increasingly more negative by the day about everything.

 

[Minsc]

So do the outfits near instantly repair themselves?

They're made with the latest blood repellents.

 

[kindaGoth]

Y'know what, the general art style just isn't serving Wolverine. The aesthetic they're applying to the classic suits don't work at all.

People will laugh at this but Wolverine should be dripping with testosterone. He should look hairy, sweaty and gruff. He needs to be brimming with energy and intimidating.

The look of the game isn't conveying that. Logan looks like a shield agent wearing the Wolverine armor. He doesn't have any aura.

 

[ahtlas7]

Was expecting not much …that looked, good.

 

[March Climber]

Sadly I feel like we will see this happening more when Marvel Studios keeps X-men buried and away from the big screen for almost a full decade after buying Fox.

[EN250]

Some parts of the video it looks like it's on rails, like a bunch of QTEs rather than actual mashing of buttons to get the actions flowing

And again, he can slice steel beams like a hot knife through butter, but these bunch of TEMU cyberpunk villains are able to withstand the same adamantium claws, they better have a good in-game explanation for that

 

[t_wilson01]

What was the need to change the character and why did Marvel allow it? Honestly, wtf?

 

[Fake]

I want Wolverine: Laufey.

You get Wolverine: Jean Gay.

 

[Idleyes]

Looks decent. I'll buy on sale.

 

[Gamer79]

Looks okish with no limbs flying off. The Trailer didn't take long for a girl boss to come in and save the day.

 

[Vick]

- I thought the gore was interesting in the first trailer but here it desperately invokes deep cognitive dissonance. I mean wow are we really supposed to root for this guy who's leaping around in an ultra realistic setting acting like a serial killer? I have no context who these mercenaries are, but it gives me no reason to justify why they should be murdered so violently. Aren't they just doing their jobs? Cyborgs or no? Then it's like Jean Grey so casually setting him up in combat with these "alley oop" kills; like she's totally fine being an accessory to brutal barbaric death with seemingly zero emotional reaction to it. It's all so super jarring and a little uncomfortable to watch honestly

 

[Diseased Yak]

These cunts and their "Y'ALL"s.

As a person native to the Southern USA, I find my culture appropriated!

 

[Memati187]

From fuckable to unfackable. Im sick of this shit.

 

[OmegaSupreme]

I've never seen her drawn like that. The whole point of the morlocks that they don't pass for human or just barely.

 

[GymWolf]

This trailer is the perfect encapsulation of why insomniac can shit out so many games so fast.

 

[GymWolf]

they really didn't show anything that makes the game look fun to play...

like i see that you press square and maybe triangle for a parry, there were some L2 moves in the corner.

but there doesn't really seem to be much more than that going on...

Spider-man's combat wasn't mind blowing either but it makes up for it with his spider abilities, climbing, swinging, arkham stealth style puzzle rooms.

I just don't see what more you'll be doing in wolverine other than pressing square lots of times.... honest it looks like the Crystal Dynamics Avengers game.

I thought Decent combat was the only saving grace of that turd tbh, every character felt pretty different aswell, and it definitely had more than just pressing square and the occasional parry.

 

[StueyDuck]

I thought Decent combat was the only saving grace of that turd tbh, every character felt pretty different aswell, and it definitely had more than just pressing square and the occasional parry.

Well it had the benefit of so many characters, imagine you only had like ms marvel that whole game, thats kind of what wolverine looks like.

I just am not seeing what wolverine is doing that is interesting

yeah gameplay look even more basic than spidey, and the gore is not really the best, a lot of blood but barely any decapitation of vertical body slices or cutting limbs except maybe one robotic leg...

The good amount of blood and the good looking ragdoll are the best praise i have at the moment

I mean if you are not crazy about the wolverine character, the game lose a lot of its selling points, the trailer really doesn't excel at anything for now.

Decapitation is probably turned off for trailer purposes, we know it's in there

 

[Vick]

I thought having a good looking female mercenary freezing in fear "Oh my God!" before getting brutally stabbed in the chest and face by the main character was.. rather bold.
Like God of War III bold.

The Pedro Pascal of video game.

Are this and Laufey mods of the same game?

If this is what you are getting from that comment just to cope then more power to you mate.

 

[LordCBH]

Considering how retarded YouTube is, I completely understand why.

 

[kpopSuperstar]

Is it gonna be the same setup of "big villain invade city, city is filled with bad guys" like all their Spider-Man games?

I wonder how they are gonna match the dynamic of the Spider-Man combat system as well, as so much was about jumping and using Spider-Man powers. My fear is that it's gonna be a pure button-masher.
