The Boring State of Multiversus.

[@HighLanderPonyYT]

Weird to drop a bait video right on the day of the update preview... That vid on YT had some big Ws, you might wanna check it out.

[@xae1613]

if this was any other game the community would just leave it to rot, but this has so much potential that it physically hurts whenever they make a bad decision or shove monetization in our face. I'd argue the wonky gameplay would be entirely more forgivable if they weren't constantly trying to drain our wallet and actually gave access to most characters without an endless grind. really hoping next season blows my expectations out the water

[@tommydiaz-millan2438]

Season 3 was not a bad season. The Powerpuff Girls were my highly requested characters to join and I'm happy they're in the game. I hope they don't get nerfed. Season 4 might do good but I'll b laying off soon until I see Dexter (Dexter's Lab), Daffy Duck (Looney Tunes) and the Warner Siblings (Animaniacs). Daphne (Scooby-Doo) too.

[@tommydiaz-millan2438]

Also, money isn't always everything.

[@CuzzieGaming]

I agree I actually like this game more then smash I hope they just keep updating till we have 100 fighters

[@HeartlessMoogle9711]

It's a free to play game so I understand it has to be monetized. But adding characters no one asked for when you have the potential to do polls of fans for characters they want is lost on me.

[@HeartlessMoogle9711]

​@@tommydiaz-millan2438the Rifts is an issue

[@themanager10yearsago29]

another video bro posted that has been nullified by the new update. Your timing is way too off man

[@GoodOnAccident]

He knows check the description. Season 4 will fix most of this so he needed to get the video out before his information is immediately discredited

[@JEZ346]

That particular headline was misleading it's all of Warner Brothers games as a service including "Kill the Justice League", so it's not all just on Multiversus.

[@kylespevak6781]

13:24 YES! That's my issue with shields. We had all of beta and release to add them, and they're bringing it up NOW?! Just fine tune the game as-is, then we'll see what's needed

[@kylespevak6781]

I'm confused as to what, besides characters and stages, you think the game should be doing? They do have a battlepass, missions, single player and side modes

[@JoeyTheMinion]

It’s really that bad balancing changes and adding of characters that like no one cares about or wanted in Powerpuff girls sure but then Nubia after was a horrible decision But with Season 4 we just got two very requested characters so I have hope Also we need more single player options to make having my friends come over to play a lot more fun

[@imaginaryking5276]

Personally I just want the game to be available offline too

[@AwesomeMooseSmile]

I think the single player mode needs to be improved. I haven't played since season 2, so when getting back into it during season 4, I had so much new content to play and was excited to get into all of it........ I stopped after the second rift out of like 6, it was SO boring.

[@FaeTuberEden]

marcaline and raven being added is the only reason ive thought about the game since playtest and if they make us wait extra time to play them that will be unforgivable

[@SeekMVS]

The characters aren’t locked behind the battlepass and u can get Raven on Friday with only a couple hours of playtime

[@GlitCh4O4]

4:44 I think what people don’t understand is that not everything a character does has to be a reference to their respective series like take a look at smash bros, some characters have moves that makes sense for the character’s gameplay and are reasonably seen in the respective franchises but aren’t references or never happened in the source material like Peach pulling Toad out as a shield, Fox’s fox illusion and firefox, and pretty much everything Pac-Man does

[@StarDragonJP]

DC being like Fire Emblem is not a fair comparison. The Fire Emblem characters all have basically the same moveset.

[@AwesomeMooseSmile]

Also unlike fire emblem, DC is the biggest IP that WB owns. The problem is that the character choices outside of the iconic three and the joker are nonsensical (raven's fine though). It'd be like if Smash didn't have Yoshi or Wario but had buzzy beetle, goompa, and added pom pom and King Bobomb before Bowser.

[@kylespevak6781]

12:16 Yup. I've you try to be Melee 2, you'll always be 2nd to Melee

[@AwesomeMooseSmile]

​​@@HB-fq9nn Project M. Project M is one of the greatest mods ever made and is the best smash game ever (it's brawl but without the ass gameplay). Only problem is that it's a mod, so it'll always be considered niche, so games like Rivals of Aether has staying power because it has the ability to be Project M but won't be shut down by the big N.

[@cultoosk]

VIDEO RECAP: Multiverses Season 3 introduces the Powerpuff Girls and Nubia, with the former being a well-received addition and the latter being a somewhat obscure character with a generic move set. Despite the season’s new stages and perk system additions, it feels like filler due to a lack of long-term investment strategies. The game’s third season has seen a decline in player numbers, highlighting the need for more engaging content to retain players. The third season of MultiVersus introduced new features, including Shields, but also removed popular perks and imposed restrictions on event currency. Despite some positive changes, the game’s grind and difficulty curve remain problematic. However, the announcement of a longer season with fan-favorite characters and a roadmap provides hope for the game’s future.

Why spend $30 on FOMO skins when you can play rivals 2 for the same price and no FOMO

[@HighLanderPonyYT]

You can get some of those FOMO skins for free. lol

[@ThrowAway-t6i]

Because Rivals 2 has no content

[@HighLanderPonyYT]

You can invest 10$ in MVS which is cheaper than Rivals 2 and go infinite with the battle pass, unlocking skins along the way or through events, including some of those 30$ ones. MVS has problems but this isn't one of them.

[@Josh-md1bc]

[@SeekMVS]

U don’t need to spend 30$ u could’ve got the skin for free and the skins will come back at at a later date

[@kylespevak6781]

The game shot itself in the foot with the handling

[@finessefulj8489]

100M is the cost sunk into Mutliversus. This also includes the cost for Playerfirst Games since Warner didn't originally own them. IGN just wants to clickbait and get attention to their dying platform.

[@finessefulj8489]

That said bring back the speed (slightly under beta speed would be sweet spot imo)

[@moprophet_509]

The banana gaurds weightlifting is a refrence to the episode where finn and jake go undrer cover as gaurds

[@Jiopera99]

Ya'know, i kinda feel like they'd get more players if they released with characters people actually wanted instead of whatever we got. Even this season. Sure, powerpuff girls is really nice but why another dc superhero? Some of the characters we got are big time characters on many people's lists, but not the majority. Also promoting toxicity in a game where you can't balance these characters well is just asking to fail. Failed the casuals and it might fail the ranked players.

[@SeekMVS]

The season releasing in a couple hours will have Raven as the release character and not locked behind the battlepass and marceline in mid December also unlocking 1 character will take a couple hours of play time around 3-4 hours

[@texcorps9432]

Nubia was a odd choice, Banna guard was also bad but the logic is a bit flawed. They'll always be a character for someone to ask for. And DC like it or not is the strongest brand the game has.

[@Jiopera99]

@texcorps9432 There'll always be a character, yes, but when you heavily market your game as being goofy and wacky but then have the majority of them being serious characters is not what people asked for and, at least to me, makes the game even more bland (combined with the general color the game uses). Ofc there'll be a Joe Shmo who wanted Jason since day 1, but that doesn't mean it's the majority. If you think about it, starting off with Jason and joker was not on many people's wish lists. Oh and having Dexter references and Animaniac stages/references and not having the characters is just them shooting themselves in the foot

[@DaOnlyVyStarix]

They finally added The Powerpuff Girls so I semi-love MVS now

[@monochrum]

6:54 this is something i would never admit to publicly

[@AverageInternetButterfly]

All I'll say is that once Daffy Duck, Scooby, and Emmet are added, things will get better

[@GawrshDarn]

The Ted Lasso request was based 🎉

[@themanager10yearsago29]

the 100 million is from buying player first games.

[@BigJambu]

The issue with the game is that new characters are only obtainable via purchasing them with real money for a very long time. By the time the powerpuff girls are available for free currency it's been about 2 months since their reveal trailer and the hype is focused on the next season already. So its VERY hard for me at least to get excited for a character. I don't mind paying for a character but the idea of paying for every character or even half of them as they come out is a lot to swallow.

[@BoeBinsky]

“What if we made it so they need *this* to win, but in order to get that you need *this* but you can only get *this* by getting that first, also give us 10 bucks” 😊player first games😊

[@nightbladex6929]

12:00 NASB 2 and other platform fighters are alternative to Melee???? That’s slander.

[@imaginaryking5276]

No it’s not Multiversus and Brawlhalla are probably the only games right now that doesn’t give the feeling of playing a variant of smash

[@chillgiver]

Awesome video man!

[@BlazeD_7]

I remember when this game relaunched I was super excited. I defended the slow movement and lack of things that was in the beta. After 1 week of playing I dropped the game. I wish the best for the game but I don't see myself playing it again. Unlocking characters is hell

[@dr.wolfstar1765]

Sakuria needs to fix this game. Just make it slightly more like smash and boom we have an amazing game

[@UncreativePF]

And heavily less monetized. So y'know, people can actually explore and play the game.

[@xaviersaikaley]

I dont get why you make a negative video on MVS right before S4 comes out that may answer your grievances. I hate these types of content creators who are passive aggressive on MVS to try and get the extreme camps to watch them.

[@majoraxx2427]

Corporation defended from criticism. Well done 🎉

[@HighLanderPonyYT]

Yea, a dirty move.

[@AwesomeMooseSmile]

I still think Nubia is the worst character ever put in a platform fighter, and you can't convince me otherwise. She doesn't work as a weird obscure character, because those usually have the quirk of being interesting or funny, but not only does Nubia have one of the most boring movesets imaginable, it's literally just banana guard but again, but she's not even a goofy character like lebron james or banana guard, she's played one hundred percent completely straight. Also, when you have a game that prioritizes a huge crossover, maybe you should prioritize big name characters like flash or scooby fucking doo before putting in characters like Nubia who, and let me put this in complete context, is a character who has a series with 4 lego game adaptations, 2 of which have over 100 characters, and she has never appeared in ANY of them EVER. Seriously, Egg Fu would have been a better inclusion, and that is a sentient Egg with spider legs that at least people are somewhat familiar with in comparison to Nubia and would be interesting, like how shuma gorath is in marvel vs capcom. Hell, Even if they wanted to add her as like an echo fighter to Wonder Woman, I'd still argue Azrael or Robin as an echo for Batman would make more sense because those characters are actually iconic. Listen I get it, someone out there will always be a fan of a character to somebody, but I don't think that's an excuse to add garbage characters. NASB 2 added Rocksteady, who was one of my favorite inclusions, but I'm not gonna sit here and say that character isn't objectively a terrible choice, especially when half the ninja turtles are missing and both shredder and Rocksteady are nowhere on the roster. Sure, I get a kick out of playing him, but that doesn't mean it was a good idea.

I loved this game in BETA and didnt come back to it at all. Part of the reason is that by now I know how WB games are monetised and I don't like it. I also cant believe they didnt add MK characters yet.

[@imaginaryking5276]

8:57 honestly, I believe the rifts became way easier ever since season 2, even insanity and looney difficultly aren’t really hard as long as the perks are at the level But I personally play them as soon as they come out, so I don’t know how it feels playing them late in the game

Ruby Rose is one of the worst picks I've ever heard of

[@JJ_mike]

The biggest reason why ruby is a bad pick is because wb killed rooster teeth so still adding her to the game because of that would feel really really awkward.
