Marvel's Midnight Suns Review

[@CaravelClerihew]

As a big fan of Slay the Spire and Monster Train, I'm actually quite excited by the card game aspect of this game.

[@TroyLeavitt]

Agreed. This looks really fun.

[@ombra711]

Same, been waiting for a deck builder battler with cards that have a more cinematic presentation.

[@Rushman666]

I dont think it is nearly as complex as slay the spire

[@SupermanNew52]

I really wish this was Ultimate Alliance 4 or something that played like those games. I would buy that game very quickly. I hope this game makes the people who like this type of game happy though.

[@ndjdjdjd3373]

Yes is a fun game but same We need UA 4

[@Davey_Da_Vinci]

It does make us happy. But I completely understand your desire for another ultimate alliance, especially since 3 was so disappointing. I feel you. But allow yourself to enjoy this game if you have the ability to do so

[@SupermanNew52]

@@Davey_Da_Vinci You know what, I'm gonna buy it tomorrow just because of what you said. I have been recently playing PS4 Spider-Man on my PS5 and I am catching up to the rest of the Marvel side of things.

[@Davey_Da_Vinci]

@@SupermanNew52 that's awesome! I'm happy for you 100%. If you can pick suns up at a discount, please do. I know it's not what you're hoping for, but if you can give yourself into the type of game it is, I don't think you'll be disappointed. Let me know if you do play it! Peace brother

[@SupermanNew52]

@@Davey_Da_Vinci I will report back. I've played many turned based RPGs and RTS games so I'm sure I'll enjoy it.

[@mickeymouse7726]

11:14 nice to see Magik get great representation outside of the comics

[@Anothernerdyloser314]

How is the cursor always in the frame? Just move the mouse to the side when you aren't using it.

[@juniormphahlele9053]

8 out of 10.

[@kingdavid8657]

Thanks because I was about to skip to the end. Especially when the review is a 15 min video.

[@mapanapu]

Definitely shouldn’t be an 8 if the story and dialogue which is about 30hrs is a drag

[@xanderfulton3186]

@@mapanapu Firaxis games have never been good story wise. I wish they would understand that and get some help. I love Xcom but the story is kept light to accompany gameplay instead of heavily focused on, so it works. I knew this game wouldn’t be a good story but from what I’ve heard…..oof.

[@CarterPSN]

Cats

[@InsaneLuchadoor]

God’s work.

[@MadSnake123]

I was a bit worried about the card system, but it seems it works pretty well, maybe a bit like the classic Baten Kaitos for what i can tell, but yeah, this looks far, far better than i thought it would be.

[@baluedragon3052]

Favorite comment just because you mentioned baten kaitos

[@TidusX16]

I was a bit on the fence when I first heard about this but when I saw it was the same guys from XCOM I knew it was going to be in good hands and boy was I right! Just a bit of advice for those new to this style of RPG gameplay, read everything. Don't skip out on any tutorials or hints, you will not like this game or style if you don't take the time to read the instructions and understand the mechanics. Though this game would be a great jumping off point for the XCOM series if you want to go deeper.

[@shinigamirenegade]

Waiting for it to go on sale. Thats how i played the xcom series got the base game and all.the dlca

[@devondavis5119]

The way they made ghost rider in the graphics in that game look so cool 😎

[@UltimateTS64]

When this game first got revealed I was genuinely confused on what type of game it was, but I get it now. It seems interesting, but idk if it's for me, it's an interesting idea that your attacks never miss tho

[@Jordan-xx2jd]

This looks really interesting. I don’t think I can bring myself to pay $70 for a turn based card game, as they’re just not what I enjoy but I’ll definitely pick it up on sale in the future

[@damianbakker375]

70? Huh i see the game for €50

[@queasyballa]

@@damianbakker375 it really is $70

[@derekrank4572]

i like the flashy combat spells. very colourful ,

[@shanestevick679]

I'm curious if this game 🎮 is going to have Dlc content or expansions. Like more Marvel heroes or more enemies.

[@logixindie]

Yeah 4 planed dlcs with new heroes, enemies, missions

[@JackIsMe1993]

Blade starts a book club in this game to make friends :)

[@keychainere]

Exactly as he should!

[@SkunkLifeMedia]

gotta be the only review I have seen that is praising the characters in the game

[@derrickhaggard]

If I get this with a PS5 I won't regret it. Plus there is great reward for building up your friendship with your fellow Midnight Suns members as along with getting passive boosts and new Friendship/Team-Up Combo Attacks, you'll also unlock for them the Midnight Suns Costume(The Black and Gold colored outfits they've been wearing in the promos) and it's worth it to unlock this version of the costume as this is the outfit that unlocks a character's Midnight Sun attack aka the most powerful attack that said character has.

[@sarlndr]

It’s on sale right not if you still haven’t gotten it. All three versions are on the PS Store for big discounts.

[@jonathanmather6897]

Game looks awesome, just a shame the writing seems so Disney Channel.

[@Luke-dl3tp]

hi how many saves can you have i hope more than one does anyone know?

[@napalmstriker5173]

nice to see PS3 still getting support

[@nathanmerritt1581]

0:42 that has to be one of the most awkward way to hold a controller ever lol

[@SoulfulKira]

Claw? It's pretty normal

[@dallastexas5653]

Isn’t that how they’re intended to be used?

[@RamssesPharaoh]

Excellent impressions, info, and overall review. Thank you.

[@DEVILTAZ35]

Are you also going to review it on Series X/PS5? as there is no way to tell from a PC review if those versions are any good or not.

[@chriscangelosi9438]

One of the best reviews on youtube and buried down under all the others 😮

[@MaaartyMcFly]

Does he suggest what difficulty level he picked ? Is normal too easy ?

[@carlthewinner]

Looks rad!

[@MorrisseyMuse]

Preordered on PS5, can't wait!

[@jamesinjustice2640]

You enjoy.

[@BROTRRer]

People who leave the mouse cursor in the middle of the screen during cutscenes should be culled from the gene pool

You are not wrong! :D

[@DrGrantz]

This game is starting to win me over.

[@IIISentorIII]

Join the dark side, we have cookies!

[@wrightfamily7381]

@@paullaing5921are the puzzles hard I just got it for 32 bucks and I’m looking forward to play it

[@MukiMuki688]

I'm not surprised by the general consensus of this game, Firaxis is amazing at making strategy games but awful at characterization. Even having the license to use some of the most famous comic characters can't change that.

[@bquillaguyd2940]

This is a must play.

[@RyanBounedara]

Boy, those Iron Man shoulder pads.

[@IIISentorIII]

There was a 99% hit chance for a X-COM Terror from the Deep II game. We just got unlucky guys😅

[@marcusclark1339]

seeing other reviews of this is amusing the dialogue was one of the worst parts in other, basically mcuisms without those writers than make that work in the movies its not that great, the dialogue will test your patience clearly the love of Magik was strong in this one

[@Totalrecarlo]

Where Blaze at? Darkhold?

[@scottie97]

How have I not seen any promotions or ads for this game? Looks great gonna try it

[@TimSedai]

Cards, turn-based, superheroes, I'm in

[@fabionogueira1468]

I bought the game and Im enjoying it alot!! But the season pass price is way way to pricy for the content it brings and quite predatory to be honest.

[@dudesayHEY]

I'm not big on turn based games but the story concept reminds me a bit of Mass Effects which is great

[@hypnero7664]

Fr. idk if I can play it though being turn based

[@kamransiddiqui8255]

Does the game ship with 300 page of instructions manual ??

[@RobertF]

This is exciting. I'm a fan of Magik & happy to hear the Hunter gets to be beasties with her. Plus I didn't know Micheal Jai White was in this!? Buying this game today.

[@Chad-tm3tm]

This isn't a review, it's an infomercial

if they had a mode where you could go through waves and bosses like slay the spire or something id buy this in an instant

Yay can't wait for the game plays

[@Overthought1]

this review is twice as long as it should be

[@IIISentorIII]

100% true

[@Rushtik9506]

Your not guiding position youll only given 1 move per turn so you cant realy position your character if you want to use some objects like pushig them to take additional damage to an object.

[@Rg-cf1ix]

I think there is an R in cards not cahs

[@TheCaliforniaboy1]

I can't get behind the card play. I'm actually surprised how many ppl are into that. I felt like that wasn't advertised for the game until closer to the release.

[@paulerlingheuser8453]

It's not really cards at all. It's like final fantasy with random attacks and spells to choose

[@alexnclips6790]

Rise of the Midnight Sons🔥

[@HooKsONyou]

Love turn base combat! It's been a while since I've seen one.

[@Blast2224]

I’ve been WAITING for a game like this WITH Marvel that actually has effort and not just a micro transaction abortion. Finally something where you’re able to be a fully unique hero amongst the universe again, since MMORPGS and City of Heroes and Villains.

[@endykun]

I'd like to remind you that City of Heroes is back, as City of Heroes: Homecoming.

[@MrGeo-EmitFodrol]

I really want a open world marvel game called The 616 and have it be a hughe game. Have every villain and hero and make like a 3 or 4 game plot. 1 can be Earth based another can be GotG, SS, Nova etc... im a space game and the third brings everyone together. So we can have street threats like Spiderman, Daredevil, Punisher taking on Kingpin, The Hand and the Sinister 6, The Avengers taking on Ultron, Kang, Doom, Mandarin, Thanos, Aim, Modak... Strange, Ghost Rider, Blade taking on Dormammu, Dracula and Mephisto, etc... Shield v Hydra.... Like I understand its a huge game but marvel should be 10 games in by now lol. I'd connect it to Spiderman PS4. Create solo spinoffs. LIKE I DIDN'T EVEN GET INTO XMEN, FF, GALACTUS, ETC...

[@seanbrazell7095]

Loved the trailer, can't stand turn based tactical-ish combat games.
