DLC Review + Is It Worth It? (No Spoilers)

I like that they give you the choice to get the new costumes through the depot or reeds remarkable rewards. Options are always good even if depot is easier.

[@D21BeastReviews]

if anything, the DLC and the base game should be purchased by ANYONE who wants more Marvel games on console. You basically said as much, but that point cannot be overstated. I agree. The first DLC was rough, the second got better, and the third was everything we could have wanted. Onward and upward. Let's get a MUA4, Nintendo!

[@alwaysnerdyretros]

Totally agree!!! I can’t wait to see what’s next

[@ShinMegamiTensei1]

It’s going to be at least a 10 year hiatus like how it was from mua2-mua3. One thing that really disappointed me was the fact how there’s only one set of powers per character and the lack of combo move choices that 3 has which is one of the key things that made me love MUA so much. In the first game you could do a pop-up combo to a shield uppercut to a charged heavy attack with captain America in the first game. Which that was one of the hey things that I loved in 1st unlike the 3rd. Also I hate the fact that you can’t play the game as one single character in 3. I always loved to challenge myself and play alone in 1 and sadly in 3 I’m unable to do so. Lastly one thing that I’d like to point out is the secret character. For those who don’t know it’s kinda of a disappointment and a waste of a character slot in all honesty. I personally believed that the last slot should’ve been somebody like nova, spider woman, or even songbird for that matter but oh well.

[@D21BeastReviews]

Seiro _Dusty Getting MUA3 ten years later was such an unlikely prospect, I think it’s more likely the franchise would be permanently dormant if we ended up going another 10.

[@gus051]

How is it compared to the LEGO games? Is the combat essentially the same? I’ve been wanting to play LEGO marvel heroes 2 and always end up passing up on it cause of how easy they are. Was wondering if that was the case with this game.

[@ShinMegamiTensei1]

Benton Ord You should cause 1 is lowkey the best one

[@xyro77]

Great video as always. I agree that the DCL for $20 is definitely worth the purchase. Phoenix, Doom and The DLC rewards you get from the battle pass is incredible. Don’t miss this game or the DLC!!!

[@D.J.52]

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@Folutu]

I think the new Danger Room difficulties unlock when you get your level high enough. One thing I liked with the DLC is that with every pack, they started gradually adding the rest of the playable heroes (the ones you couldn't already fight in the game) as possible opponents to beat. You also got new enemies at some points like Nova Corps and the Asgardians.

[@fourlomm]

Was really disappointed that the X-men have no story add on

[@chronospammer2073]

Yeah, would've been cool if all three had some kind of story addition

[@zayneabdelmegid2740]

Technically the gauntlets told a story, but they had no cutscenes.

[@DeathtotheAshes]

@@zayneabdelmegid2740 Yeah the “added story” for the X-men was bullshit. Especially being in a gauntlet. Like, F4 was also under Fox. Disney didn’t have to do the X-Men like that when they paved the way for MCU Avengers to even be a thing.

[@Grr8jon]

Thank you for this video. Couldn't find any videos throughly discussing the DLC. This video is perfect.

[@alwaysnerdyretros]

Thank you I’m glad it helped!

[@RogerWazup007]

My biggest complaint with the game is that, since characters don't level together and content outside of the danger room is at a fixed level, for any given character, most of the game's content will be at too high or too low of a level. In many cases, you'll either melt through bosses like butter or have to keep wailing on common enemies. It was bad enough with a cap at 100, but now that it's at 300, this is even more pronounced. I wish there was an option to temporarily lower character levels to a desired number while still earning XP toward their real level. With the character roster being one of the game's biggest strengths, it's odd that developers funneled players into using only a small handful as their main team, thus discouraging playing with the whole roster and making most content too easy once characters do level up.

[@classicretros23]

Agree the DLC is worth it, I hope they are going to add more DLC since I would still like to see more playable characters (Ant-man, Winter Soldier, Rogue, Beast, Silver Surfer, She-Hulk, Juggernaut, Mystique, Apocalypse (as villain to fight), Jubilee,

[@BoomDriveProductions]

Hey man. New subscriber to the channel. Was reeled in by your retrospective content, and your MUA3 stuff has piqued my interest. I had a sour opinion on the game when I first played it(Didn't finish), but seeing your extensive coverage for the game(Especially from someone like you who clearly has passion for the original UA) has renewed my faith. I honestly wanna throw down money for a copy and support Team Ninja for more content. Thanks so much and please never stop Marveling.

Those were great games. Marvel Ultimate Alliance and Legends 1 & 2 were all developed by Raven Software. MUA2 was given to a different group and MUA3 is from Team Ninja - developers of Ninja Gaiden and Dead or Alive. Not too shabby.

[@blackpinkonly3242]

[@LeeoGoneWild]

Inarus Lynx I actually feel like MUA3 is the worst out of all of them lol. It’s fun, but I really want the old developers to take this over again or if they could remaster the older games, that would be amazing

[@Lwiis64]

Excellent review! I agree with everything you said. But most of all, how to recommend it. Because it really comes down to that question. Has the player enjoyed the base game? And if they have and are wanting more then the DLC is a must have. Absolutely.

[@Tolinx21]

For the season pass content, it don't include costumes, there are free, except for dlc characters, and modes are make with story stages... If costumes were exclusive to season pass, the price was more justified. Xavier and Beast seasons come back in May, it's inscribe on them. You don't see it if you got all costumes before this update, but ALL costumes are include to the dlc shield shop, except deadpool cook and new costume, and guardians of the galaxy new costumes in first color, but there are include to story season. Good point for offline players.

[@doom3926]

Not everyone is going to have this same mindset but a game like this is perfect if you listen to podcasts or like to have videos to listen to while you do other things which is how I usually go about playing this game when doing Infinity Trials and Gauntlet missions or when replaying the story since I’m skipping cutscenes anyway so I don’t have to worry about stopping whatever podcast or video I’m listening to.

[@COSMIC-NOIR]

[@toddnelson7926]

I love it, you shouldn't get the game without also getting the dlc. They feature new characters, new story, new levels, new costumes and lots of playable options like gauntlets and danger room. So much value for money I would've paid $20 for each dlc (maybe even Curse of the Vampire which I don't like) but $20 for all of them is value for money. The game can be very grindy and repetitive but it hasn't stopped me from playing it yet, especially with 52 characters festured. 👍👍👍👍👍

I was trying to explore the perks of Dr Doom’s extreme attack, and I don’t see the glowing EP bars like in you video, are you sure that wasn’t due to some ISO?

[@RPGoblin]

How does this game and its dlc compare to games similar like say, marvel future fight, etc? What’s your top superhero games?

[@alwaysnerdyretros]

I haven’t really played future fight so I can’t answer accurately. I’ve been told I need to try future fight though. I typically like marvel games with big rosters, so ultimate alliance, x-men legends, even Marvels Avengers. The Lego games are cool if you like puzzles, but I’m more of a combat person. The PS4 Spider-Man games are excellent for story of course too. don’t really play the mobile games anymore, so I can’t really speak to those. I know these answers weren’t too surprising, but those are what I play most often. What about you?

[@Chrono_23]

Just got this game today played it a bit, but not sure if I want the dlc I feel like I will get it but what do u recommend me to do, to get it early into the game or once I finish it?

[@alwaysnerdyretros]

You might as well get it once you finish the game. You can’t access certain parts of the dlc until after you reach certain points in the story anyway. For example, the x-men dlc is accessible after chapter 5. I think F4 isn’t accessible until beating the game since it takes place after the main game. You’re also incentivized to beat the story multiple times for better rewards, so it’s not a one and done thing. You can bring your new dlc characters into your second story playthrough It might also be good to wait until beating the story or waiting a few chapters just to make sure you’re enjoying the game first. I hope that helps though! I’m sure you’ll enjoy it. I absolutely love this game and the DLC is worth getting, just not necessarily immediately

[@Lucifronz]

Honestly, in a game like Marvel Ultimate Alliance, DLC that offers new characters is almost always worth it. You're playing these games to mess around with your favorite heroes (and villains), so why wouldn't you want more options? And the fact that the DLC came with a bunch of different modes and some extra story content made it a no-brainer for me. I bought it before even finishing the game so I could play it with my coop partner right afterwards (although we didn't wind up playing it for a little while, the DLC was still super beneficial since I unlocked some new characters for us to play as during the main campaign). So, yeah, even at full price, the pass it worth the asking price. There are more than a few fun characters to play as from it and though the DLC story are does have *one* annoying part with the bridge, I still enjoyed it overall and would recommend it.

There is a huge difference between a fighting game character and character in ultimate alliance. I don't even know how you thought that was a fair comparison. The amount of balancing, character design and testing required is on a whole different level than are we giving character x a beam or not. Nice video overall but that was a really uninformed statement. I'm not even a smash player and don't really like the smash community but fighting games are hard work man and if they don't take very special care to ensure the new characters are balanced then we have a tekken 7 Leroy situation on our hands.

There’s a $80 version in the Nintendo store with all dlc and some other goodies is that worth it or should I get base game then buy dlc?

[@alwaysnerdyretros]

That’s up to you. But you don’t save any money by bundling the dlc. The main game is typically $60 and the dlc is always $20. So if you’re on the fence, I would recommend that you buy the main game first and then get the dlc later if you’re enjoying yourself. Also, if you’re ok with physical copies, you might be able to find the game new for $50 at Walmart or target

Always Nerdy ended up buying $80 version and I’m on fantastic four campaign rn

[@alwaysnerdyretros]

The Ogiehha oh awesome!!! How are you liking it so far?

[@xGysa]

Always Nerdy I love it I used iron man,cap marvel,star lord and Thor for first play through and got through some of the infinity missions. Team level all at 56

[@MadaoAU]

i understand trying to say that 12 chars are a lot compared to smash, but smash is a fighting game not really comparable to what new characters mean to a fighting game in a perspective of a synergy rpg one like MUA3 dlc. Just bought the game i guess i was late in the party not many ppl play anymore

[@MadaoAU]

But ok saying that ah the game has no voice chat so its good if u are introvert is kinda weird, game not having voice chat is a con not a pro :|

[@Vinicius_2911]

man, is fantastic four, course worth

[@tpkoyr1282]

You know $20 equals 280 dolar in my country :)

[@Cudizone_806]

Sounds like a you problem

[@unbrandedpants2905]

Can't find opponents in danger room.....

[@alwaysnerdyretros]

Yeah I’m starting to have that problem too. The online presence is starting to slow down again. Your best bet is to join a discord or reddit for the game and coordinate lobbies with others.

Yea its worth it doom always carrying my team

[@donnemaniago]

Thanks for comparing it to Marvel Strike Force. It does make sense to buy the DLC here vs. a lot if not all of the MSF offers. Complete rip off on that side.

[@alwaysnerdyretros]

Absolutely! The microtransactions in msf are shockingly large. It’s been a while since I’ve played though, idk if they’re better now

[@donnemaniago]

@@alwaysnerdyretros The only time I ever bought was back in 2018 for Captain America shards. I still play daily and the game has progressed in some good ways. The offers are still damn expensive though. Really appreciate that you put MUA 3 in comparison to MSF. The moment I saw the screengrab, I realized that the DLC has more value over any MSF offer

[@preawsan3469]

It worth it but it hard to pay bc I’m not in the USA

[@29wanya]

Aye great review! I'm having stupid amounts of fun with this game. I wish I had some people to play with, anybody wanna play? Drop your friends code and we should get a game together.

[@keane796]

i have to like this

[@alwaysnerdyretros]

Lol thank you

[@justdewitt5409]

You said you didn't want to spoil the bonus character, but then you showed him on screen anyway.... Edit. He didn't

[@alwaysnerdyretros]

Where? I don’t even have him unlocked myself

[@justdewitt5409]

Oh is it not Doom?

[@alwaysnerdyretros]

Nope there’s another one after doom 😃

[@justdewitt5409]

Oh nice! So there's 14 characters? Holding out hope for silver surfer
