[@declanchapman7190]

I feel that getting locked into Alien X after putting in so much work to get everything else isn't too great of an idea. Plus, Alien X gameplay should really make you feel super powerful, as opposed to being nerfed to be in-line with other transformations, so here's my idea. Paradox still takes you to the Forge, same as before, but there's an unexpected attack or event that requires your character to step in. You do so and save the day, but your Omnitrix sustains some damage in the conflict. As a reward, you are given the Alien X transformation, but your damaged Omnitrix can only handle the transformation for a short time. To remove the argument of "Oh, just get Azmuth to fix it", state that the damage is something never seen before in this universe, due to being connected to the Forge of Creation, and have Azmuth start working on a fix, setting up a future story arc for Online. In gameplay terms, Alien X would always be available, on top of your chosen 10, but you can only access the transformation for a short amount of time, and must wait for a while before using it again. However, Alien X would be the single most powerful transformation in the game, turning him into a kind of "ultimate ability". Maybe this concept could also be put on to some other aliens who'd either be too powerful to be fair, or too big / small to reasonably work, like Way Big, Gravattack or Atomix. That's my concept at least. Make the powerful transformations incredibly strong, but limit their usage. Fulfils the power fantasy of the player, while also adding some more strategy to the gameplay in choosing when to best use your most powerful transformation. Maybe this "ultimate transformation" concept could even be used to bring in the actual Ultimate Aliens as well? Forfeit your most powerful transformation in exchange for the ultimate forms of your chosen aliens? Still on a timer and with a cooldown, but would allow for more versatility, powering up one of your core transformations instead of becoming an different alien entirely.

[@DonnaPinciot]

I sort of disagree with Kuro that 'Omni Energy' should be done away with entirely, and only use real time ticking down. I think a hybrid system could work, in that your Omnitrix has a given energy capacity, but it constantly ticks down while transformed, and the only way to replenish or preserve it is to _not_ be transformed. In the Alien Force mindset, maybe every transformation drains 25% of the watch's current charge, bar the first human>alien transformation, allowing quick switches at the cost of the time you can be transformed, or Classic-style single transformations for the full time. It wouldn't be entirely lore-friendly, but there could be a balancing factor to different aliens, by giving them unique energy requirements. You could make it so that Alien X can only be used for 10 seconds before fully draining an Omnitrix's power, and maybe have a longer recharge time, but you're allowed to make one or two big changes to the level. Maybe switch all enemy types, instantly teleport the team somewhere, recharge everyone's capacity or give them temporary Master Control (Omnitrix detects interference and enters reset mode, so it will automatically lose MC regardless of if you use it?). I'm just saying there are options to make Alien X still feel and _be_ powerful. Heck, you could go along the lines of the Celestialsapien court, where you're restricted from doing things that are _too_ big, or you might even have to debate with your internal heads to pass any resolution. Oh, maybe that could turn Alien X in to a gamble, where you can only use an ability that they're proposing at the time, by agreeing and being the tie breaker? That would give you at least 1 or 2 options, maybe you can cycle through a few before your time runs out, but it would be a realistic, lore-friendly limitation on Alien X without feeling like a copout. Perhaps agreeing to a proposal is also the only way to get out, so you're locked in to Alien X until you make a decision, or otherwise convince them to let you leave without making any choices?

[@LexiTheStarQueen]

Yeah I feel like a lot of people would get upset pretty quickly if they made the decision to stay a Celestialsapien

For anyone wandering why this was posted midnight (est) instead during the day, maybe Kuro's got this video on an automatic release schedule and said schedule was back a few hrs.

A thought I just got about this episode. Think it’d be cool if Ben won the fight by trying to unlock a new or past transformation the Ultimatrix didn’t have access to at that moment? For example, he’s running away from the Stalker while Kevin and Gwen fights it off, fidgeting with the Ultimatrix trying to get something new to show up on it, it finally does, he transforms and as Kevin and Gwen are down, a blue and black blur tackles the Stalker, breaking its legs apart and as it’s incapacitated, XLR8 announces his name!

This is unironically one of my favorite Ben 10 episodes. I loved the idea.

[@jbcatz5]

Ben in a mocap suit is a pretty interesting sight, especially with the aliens also wearing it without breaking it. Not making it green was a big missed opportunity. You’d also think Ben would pitch the Ultimate forms, they’re a perfect video game power-up.

[@christianparrish6647]

If he was way big, it would definitely rip it.

[@Jedededededede]

They can’t make the mocap suit or bg green. Or else the Ultimatrix would be invisible to the camera. As well as Ben’s eyes.

Yeah, why doesn’t Gwen after Will basically ruins her driving test be all like, “That’s it, I’m calling my dad”? Remember, her dad is a lawyer; they have the means to sue Will but just…don’t.

[@robertkovarna8294]

24:49. What I find harder to believe is that Will could openly admit on live tv to who knows how many people that he has a giant death robot and is gonna try to kill ben with it, then have that completely ignored. Like, is no one gonna call him out on that fake news when his last one had him show himself remote control a death robot and how said robot he afforded was breaking stuff?

[@Crystal_959]

I've also had a pretty expansive idea for a Ben 10 game. Pretty similar, open world concept with a story line but plenty of optional places to go with baddies to fight and co-op modes. Or PvP even, how fun would it be to really get to throw down with your friends all equipped with omnitrices? I think one thing that sucks is when Ben 10 games force you to use specific aliens to complete a task. Really makes it feel like you don't actually get to choose. Also, I think it'd be neat to include a few different customization options for the aliens themselves. Nothing too crazy, maybe just a few different outfit patterns/schemes and slight color variations (ex, making Diamondhead more of a bluish green vs full green, Wildmutt being orange or maroon, etc etc) could be fun too.

[@nathanex5122]

ngl i would kill to see a co-op ben 10 game centered around multiverse related missions done in inconic locations

[@mikiczm3248]

That's a pretty neat game idea, but the story would be rather limited if it's just an alternate version of Ben's story. Here's my idea for why would there be multiple characters using an Omnitrix: The Omni Academy. As Ben grows older, Azmuth realizes the world will need a replacement to be their hero. And with the Plumbers' help, he gathers promising recruits of various species and gives them a simpler, empty version of the Omnitrix. After some tests (tutorial mission), they are free to explore the galaxy, visiting homeworlds of different aliens to collect their Dna, unlocking more and more transformations and growing stronger, encountering future versions of Ben's villains and some brand new ones.

[@eldesconocidosenork5981]

I think this breakdown helped me open up a little bit to this episode. And speaking about videogames: Kuro´s Would cost a LOT of money, mechanics alone. But it would be FIRE. There would be a lot of things to take into consideration. amount of alien species, if every species would have a standard model & color pallete or differents. The individual campaign world would take an entire game´s budget. But forgeting about money factor, there should be some random generation thing for the world. Maybe the color palette varies between universes. Balancing: Maybe blocking some alien species for a while would be better. Atomix, Gravattack, Gutrot, and gravatack as Kuro said, but also The Halloween Trio and Whampire should be only unlockeable on Halloween events. And scanning the aliens from others would just undervalue the work of whoever got it first. Not that they couldn´t help you get it though. And yeah, I´m nitpicking a fan´s dream idea of a ben 10 MMO, But only because I really like it!

[@mr.mister3960]

1. I'm damn certain the episode Kellen is referring to in Omniverse is The Most Dangerous Game Show, you thought you were out of dodge when you swapped to the new format but Kellen got ya. 2. Come on man, the episode with the balls drop and treating a car like a woman hasn't impacted the Fandom at large? Come on.

[@daniellemarcantel2487]

The best part of the car line is the way Kevin responds after Gwen calls him out. He completely back tracks and its hilarious! 😂 Definitely one of Kevin's best lines.

[@gammalolman580]

The videogame concept sounds cool, and I honestly feel like it would be extremely fun. Now, most of this (especially the heavy customization) is pretty costly so it would be hard to do (Altho giving aliens a standard look in the beginning and the main customization going onto your main form would be nicer). Would probably be a neat experience to do. I feel like stuff like ultimate aliens, fusions and mutations could also be implemented, altho maybe as their own transformation (the omnitrix technically can scan those but does not accept them as it's not programmed to so...)

[@brettsmith4499]

Finally someone mentions the pauses in conversation. Its in every episode of Ultimate Alien and It bugged me so much. They say their line. pause. Character comments on what other character said. pause. for the whole episode. this didn't happen in alien force, (in this show they even pause to be interupted mid sentence) With all its issues let it be known that I still love this show. No question about it.

He could have taken it out easily with Ultimate Humungousaur because when Ben was getting his aliens scanned regular Humungousaur got scanned but not his ultimate form.He transformed from Humungousaur to Nanomech during the scanning process so something tells me Ultimate Humungousaur never got scanned meaning the stalker wouldn't know his moves.

[@Hadeks_Marow]

I would raise the importance of this episode up to a 1 or 2 for a single reason: It introduces a new villain to the franchise. Before now, news man was not a villain. He was just an antagonistic side character. With this, it proves he is an actual villain. It's the FIRST time he's actually "fought" ben. Was this the only time he's tried to take him down outside of newscasting? Cause if it's the only time, then yeah, it's a 0. . . but I don't think this was. I would also drop it's visuals to a 4. It had no real "impressive" visuals. Like back in AF, you had cool shading and things like that. This kinda felt average quality visuals, not "top" quality.

[@donovanlarsen7982]

Just a bit of a continuity error I have to mention. I believe it is mentioned later in the Map of Infinity Arc that one of the flaws of the Ultimatrix is that it always reverts him to his base outfit and any he would’ve been wearing disappears. So, why does the motion capture suit change and conform to his aliens in this episode? It should’ve disappeared like other outfits he wears. My favorite Andromeda 5 alien is Armadrillo.

[@kermitgotthesickkicks4265]

That's not really much of a error.

[@jordandillow3423]

Dude you forgot a s in alien bruh fix it

[@NetroxSM]

THAT GAME IDEA IS SO GOOD. I wish CN would make this.

[@jrmbbr]

My idea of a Ben 10 video game has always been: - The player has access to all the aliens however, they can only "draft" 10 aliens per level to play as. The drafting process can be done on Plumbers' HQ in between levels. - Some aliens may have advantages in specific areas but none of them are required to complete that area. This would give the players control over the difficulty of the game by not drafting the aliens suited for particular situations if they want a more challenging experience. - As for the story, they can take inspiration from Marvel Ultimate Alliance in which a big bad (probably Vilgax) assembles all of the other villains in an all out war against Ben & the plumbers. This allows the story to take place in all of the locations and involve every character throughout Ben 10 history. - Gameplay can also be similar to MUA in which it can be a 4 character team to allow players to play as Gwen, Kevin, Rook, Max, or any other allies from the show. Ben can be a default member of the team but some levels can focus on missions w/o him. They can even add Generator Rex as a special unlock or DLC character! - The only downsides to this is that the developers need to make each alien balanced to even out their time on the spotlight. Additionally, aliens such as Waybig and Alien X will only be used in specific areas much like in Cosmic Destruction in WB's case. They could nerf Alien X so we can use him in a regular level but they would need to be clever on how they would explain why that's the case storywise.

[@noraarcadia635]

If you can replay levels, then maybe hide collectables behind powersets like a Lego game? Like one area has a fire area that could be accessed by a fireproof alien or an alien like Water Hazard that can put it out.

[@jrmbbr]

@@noraarcadia635 Not only collectibles but also hidden areas with side quests in them. These missions are scattered throughout the game and can be their own mini story. Once completed, the player can maybe unlock an alternate costume or maybe an optional power-up like Skurd.

[@danielkim1024]

I'm going to be honest, Will Haruane as usually trick Ben 10 in becoming part of a video game, when he was only trying to analyze Ben's alien form movements to defeat him once and for all. But still the question that Kura asked if we were to make her own kind of Ben 10 online game. For mine, I would allow him to use ultimate forms and maybe fight Vilgax once more or maybe fight Albedo as the final boss. That also includes playing other character like Gwen, Kevin, and Rook instead of Ben.

@@pininja4981 although there’s a lot of geniuses in the show, the general technology level is similar to ours IRL, and in real life a robot that advanced would cost a lot more than that and take ages to develop.

That would sound like a awesome game but I have ideas. 1. Would their be like quick change moments like in Cosmic destruction like you have to pick right alien and you make different choices for each alien. 2. Seen you can make you own character and can’t plan as Ben would Ben not existed in that universe or he died and your the second user for the Omnitrix. 3. Would you have to choose the right character lines for your character like the ones like yes and no or the choices

[@randomchiz]

If I could make my own Ben 10 game, I'd make one in the same format as the recent PlayStation Spider-Man games. You'd be given 10 aliens to free roam a giant city with at your leisure, Rolling around skateparks with Cannonbolt, using Fourarms to leap buildings like the hulk, Flying the skies with Big Chill, swinging like Spider-Man with Snareoh, etc... But there'd also be story missions where you're scripted to use specific aliens the levels are designed around. Probably one in the first half, and then switching to a second in the latter half. And of course there's also the ability to upgrade alien movesets via points gained fighting petty crime around the city, and collectables to encourage exploration even more. I don't know what the story would actually be, but I'd love for you to play as a slightly older Ben living on his own, with a more detailed (realistic) ark style; giving way for a game that's slightly more mature than his normal cartoons, much in the same way Insomniac's Spider-Man is.
