Marvel's Midnight Suns

I have yet to beat the game. My review is for what I've experienced so far. I enjoy the story along with the characters interactions and the individuals themselves. the character models are very good and attention to detail is definitely noted with some. I highly recommend this game to anyone that enjoys a Marvel version of Xcom with card elements.

Best marvel game I've played. 10/10 Will ignore Dr. Strange again.

yup

A lot of good here mixed in with some very bad and a few annoying things. The biggest and most obvious thing that it has going for it is the core gameplay loop. Mixing a tactical RPG with a pseudo deckbuilder is really fun, and there's lots of ways to build your teams and decks to cover all the needs you might need on a mission. Characters generally tend to fit into typical RPG roles; tank, bruiser, support caster, AOE caster, etc. But with the deckbuilding you can decide how much to lean into these things for each given character. There's also some pretty solid QOL things, that even though they do have to be unlocked, are nice to have. The quick level up systems are pretty good and keep you from feeling like you have to just grind missions to make you way through the game. And the story gets pretty good in the second and third acts, despite the pretty slow start that it gets to. That said, the writing in the first act almost made me put down the game entirely. There's just that MCU quality irony pilled writing that bogs down the first act so much, to the point that it is almost better to just skip past most of the dialogue until things get more normal or serious. Having tutorial prompts come up before every mission was frustrating too in the way it kept continually breaking up the game flow. Now there is some grind for things that aren't character levels, mostly resources needed to upgrade things around your hub. These can be fairly annoying to grind out early on, but the later in the game you get the less of an issue it becomes. So while it does bog down things a bit, it opens up as things go along. There's also some bugs, which are mostly visual, that can also break up the flow of things. Overall it's really just the first act of the game that feels like such a slog. If you can push through that, then things start to pick up and feel fun all in all. But the first act being such a slog really does bring down the whole experience.

Simplistic storyline aside, the card-based gameplay is rather fun and lends to a tactical playstyle. The friendship mechanic was clearly meant to be romantic but was cut short which is a shame, yet the Marvel characters are still enjoyable for comic fans.

you too can become close and personal friends with blade

Pretty fun overall. Seems like a pretty standard Marvel story, decent variety of heroes to choose from. Honestly, the biggest drawback is the deck based combat. If it wasn't trying to be a deck builder it would be a lot better. That said, if you're looking for a pretty stock standard Marvel games there are worse options.

I really enjoyed this game. It's a great deck building strategy game. Difficulty scaling can be a bit sharp. I don't recall encountering any bug. Definitely no game ending ones. Fun combat. Decent story. Strongly recommend.

Finally finished this game, DLC included and my God, it's a chore LOL. The graphics and gameplay in this game is amazing. However, if you are playing for the story and want to unlock all the achievements like I do, it's very tedious with the grinding. You will need materials, blueprints, relics and gifts. You also need to play General Missions multiple times with different leading heroes to get the cards you need in order to upgrade the card to higher level. You can also craft those cards using the materials. Luckily, you only need to upgrade those cards once and not multiple times. The materials break down into tiers. Common (WHITE), rare (BLUE), (PURPLE) and heroic (ORANGE). Then, there also friendship which allowed you to unlock challenges for your heroes, which unlock cosmetic and achievement related. Just a note, in order to unlock everything, you will need HULK which you can only get at almost the end of the game. There also research to get action card to help you in battle. I played on maxed difficulty Ultimate III because it give out maximum rewards. I need mod assist to get an extra turns on each encounter because I find it a bit short with just only 3 turns and if you have Dr. Strange, you will be able to get 4 turns. As for the story, it's pretty long and going in circle. It's also required you to do certain things to progress like any other games. General Missions are like side quest that needed for progression as well. I don't wanna spoil anything and just let people experience it themself. Just beware, there are some very grinchy jokes made from your character. For example, they keep going "Your Mother Abandoned You" over and over again and again LOL. Anyway, the game is somewhat...fun? I guess? lol but I don't feel like engaging half of the time and find myself bored out of the conversation between characters. To me they are not really interesting but maybe you will see it differently than I do. Enjoy it.
