Multiversus had: - cheaters - ass servers - ass hitboxes - the bug that prevents you from going right, so you are stuck on the left side of the map and can only jump or crouch - losing a lot of easy matches - MEGA ASS balancing with some characters being ridiculously overpowered since beta release until the end for 8+ months - also the events, although very fun were way too grindy. Me who was already palying A LOT had to play x2 times more if I wanted to unlock all the rewards. They had way too less time and created "fear of missing out" effect - which would make the playerbase bigger, yes, but also made people get sick of the game. The developers forcing people to grind the game like a full time job is gonna drive players away. However it had a lot of good: - super smooth movement and very fun physics - with every character having different speed, jump height, dash-jump and wavedash etc - Reindog is my favourite zoner in a fighting game I have played with LeBron James being pretty close - the amount of content for a beta was pretty good, a lot of characters to learn - silly queue was hella fun - Supa Saiyajin Shaggy

[@verbage432]

The game to me just lacked polish. something I took for granted when it came to fighting games was the high level of polish in nearly all of the major ones. (Hell, take away the health bars and FighterZ looks like you're literally watching an episode of DBZ) It really hit me when I played smash bros for the first time in a while after playing multiversus and it was night and day in terms of animation, sound design, presentation, and over all sense of impact.

[@DraconasTenZHG]

I don't know, as somone who played mostly Shaggy and Superman - hitting with a charged punch felt very rewarding and painful. In my opinion the weight of unsafe moves was way better than getting a signature hit in Brawlhalla. But I've never played Smash Bros though.

[@Billymaysx]

I used to think this, but with how both NASB 2 and Rivals 2 are destined to be niche I hard disagree. Making a game "More like Smash" just causes it to lose its identity. Plus, Smash players will always go back to Smash no matter how close the gameplay feels to Smash. Taste in videogames is heavily dependent on what games you grew up with as a kid. Multiversus has to create its own audience rather than listening to other games audiences who will never be satisfied. For Multiversus to be successful, it has less to do with the gameplay, and more to do with increasing the content within the game.

[@DraconasTenZHG]

@@Billymaysx The gameplay is great. Just fix the balancing, the hitboxes and keep constant updates (not even characters, can be more maps and game modes)

The battlepass is god awful man. Progressing slowly, barely getting any rewards, and the micro transactions being expensive just sucked.

“Pro gaming is killing the fun in games” I’ve been discussing that with my friends for a few years now. It’s like no one plays games for themselves anymore. I’m going to use MK11 for example. I consider myself a pretty good MK11 player. I love getting a new fighting and trying out characters in the lab creating my own combos and strats, but it seems like everyone else just wants to copy these “pros”. You hop online and EVERYONE is literally playing the exact same way because they want to be the next SonicFox or NinjaKilla. It just makes the game feel boring because every fight feels like Deja Vu since no one wants to learn their own strats and combos.

Theres more variables than those ofc but you get my drift. I should not have to play extensively to unlock whats on the game. Games were meant to be fun remember!

Hundreds of "DOMINATE your lobbies with THIS BROKEN SETUP!" videos or tier list videos all streamlining the meta to the the masses thus killing folk's fun and general gameplay experiences who might not be into that scene. And my biggest frustration with it is exactly as you said - for what?! Most of us are either average or slightly above average at the competitive games we play and no money is coming from it unless you're making it as a streamer. Shit be killing me 😩

[@Parallax200]

Loving this new content TBH! nice addition of the reddit dive as well!

[@frack1167]

I was an avid player, still am, the main problem is the balancing and server issue. I played bugs and while yeah I’d admit he was quite easy, I’ve been getting into Shaggy and Finn recently since that’s all I see, and i these characters are just too good. They don’t lose 1v1s so that mode is essentially just meta spam, so you go to 2v2s where everyone just runs triple jump and taz trig bc it’s the meta. And you are straight up going to lose if you don’t run these characters or these perks. Iron giant is a free kill everytime bc Finn, Bugs, Shaggy are already hitstunning you to oblivion. Let’s not even discuss the fact some characters can’t ring out ppl until 230 *cough* gizmo. Problem comes from lvl 30 Finn’s, Bugs and Shaggys just abusing the obnoxious and obvious meta just so they can win the meme game. The game was best taken as a fun competitive joke and not a reused meta mechanic. Honestly get rid of those two perks and the game would be a whole lot different. I’m a lvl 25 bugs now but I’m also a lvl 24 Tom and Jerry, lvl 20 taz and supe, along with 10+ characters on mostly everyone except Harley and Steven, not sure on shaggy but pretty up there. And I’m just bored. I’ve played all these characters and I know what’s going to happen based on the matchups most of the time unless like someone just actively throws. And man. The matchmaking is abysmal, probably bc I’ve played a lot but I feel like I’m constantly fighting for my life by myself when I solo queue 2v2s. It’s horrendous.

[@chrisbeach423]

Smash will never die. It’s a better game to. Go play some smash stop wasting your time on this game that’s finished.

[@frack1167]

@@chrisbeach423 I agree with you a lot but it’s still fundamentally a bit different from smash due to the perks, two dodges and the floaty nature of the game, also I dont own a switch and I would like to play smash but you know I just don’t feel like buying a switch solely for smash because I’m not as much of a gamer as I am now. Even on multiversus it’s about 4-8 games and I’m done for the night realistically. I just don’t game as often as I used to or else I probably would invest in a switch

I wish the switch had Madden and other big games, but the switch is literally a Xbox 360 in disguise. It’s a weak system.. which isn’t surprising because Nintendo has been behind the curb ever since the GameCube came out.

[@EdibleChan]

I played this game for the first two months and honestly all the people spamming the same moves with the same characters(same character duo) and the lag just killed it for me I tried to come back too it after a another month or so and there was no retaining factor for me to stay and play the game

[@thelunaman4121]

I think taking in some of the feedback from the community would benefit it, plus a whole new trailer for the game showing said improvements, featuring roadmaps and characters patch notes etc.

[@gamerwordtv4560]

The main reason I stopped playing was because of the lag. Every time me and friend wanted to play we would lag so bad that we could not even fight.

[@thebootlegexecutioner1797]

I personally dropped the game because it feels like each character had some unique buff or debuff that you had to play around, which made me and others stick to the more simple characters. Also, I hate the attack decay since it’s either too punishing or not punishing enough.

[@DraconasTenZHG]

Half of the roster was opaf so I had to limit myself to playing only those "bad" or "balanced" characters because otherwise it was no fun. There were a lot of characters with very cheesy moves - Rick's sair, Stripe's said for example and the game rewarded you for spamming one move because of horrible hitbox/damage/knockback/whiff balancing. I played the characters that had balanced moveset and never had a need to spam so for me neither that or decay wasn't an issue. The decay mechanic was - I think - built in to prevent infinite combos which a lot of characters had. They could deal 100+ damage with 2-3 buttons and loop it until you die. But getting a decay after hitting someone with 4 sairs shouldn't be a big issue, it isn't hard to reset it.

[@saicams]

I still think this game really needed more single player content, like even just a classic mode to try out characters without worry of facing strong online competition wouldve been nice.

[@supercyrus1000]

I really liked this format TBH🙌🏾 One thing that i thought made it hard to continue multiversus was the lack of defensive options. Dodging is cool but it feels a little too hectic when i can’t just stand my ground and block.

[@Adam-ei4oj]

it also had a poor effect on balancing cause spammy charecters with massive hit boxes had a huge advantage, i was a top 20 taz in 1v1s and it was just batman, batman, bugs, batman,

[@Nathan-ct9eh]

That one user on the last reddit screenshot saying the added up total for all consumables *on release* was sixteen hundred bucks.... *holy shit*

The lag is horrendous. I'll be hitting through someone and once my animation is done my opponent shows that they are already hitting me. Some how rank 30 and above figured out how to have smooth matches though because they are the main ones this happens with.

[@thato8000]

I honestly think the game is missing mechanics. It needs a block mechanic and each character needs an ultimate move. That and fixing lag will save the game

[@vanshires]

Nah the gameplay was great. There was just not enough content for a gaming as a service game.

People should stop comparing games to smash like after kragg in rivals of aether 2 was revealed smash players are saying his whole Moveset is just dOnKEy kOnG even though he is one of the most unique characters in fighting game history and does not even have a single DK move and the only similarity being that he is heavy

[@ravenfrancis1476]

For me personally it was the fact that, like, 98% of the characters were locked behind an expensive paywall when you first start the game, and the only way to not have to pay real world currency on this ostensibly free to play game is to grind for hours on end with the same character over and over.

Great video, some good reasons here. Feel one of the other ones that worth mentioning that wasn't really said is the no couch co-op or offline campaign mode and such. The reason Smash is so great besides having well thought out characters, move sets, and good feeling combat is the variety of ways and modes for people to mess with. Sure most of the time you are playing time battle or stock mode, but sometimes you want to switch it up try some challenges or the campaign fight rush (Which is in like every other fighting game imaginable) Not everybody wants to just try to climb to the top of ladder.

[@FrostedZaibatsu]

From a FGC prospective this was very well researched. One of the reason i couldnt get more into the game, was the priorty system ( or lack there of). This game ran mostly on who's hitbox was bigger and the majority of character just fell short to any character with big hitboxes and projectiles. Garnet (a character who has always been low tier) has a ability to deal with projectiles and one of the only characters to deal with projectiles. She sucked against it, the balancing always sucked man. I loved this game and was waiting for Raven to come out to start playing again, but man i dont think that's going to happen

Bro the game was so fun, if they had more characters from Cartoon Network or Adult Swim on release it would’ve been more popular because people would’ve tried it out to play their favorite characters. Example: Courage the Cowardly Dog, Johnny Bravo, Samurai Jack, Aku, Teen Titans(og not the new shit), Master Shake, Meatwad, Frylock. Other IPs that they own like the Flintstones or Terminator.

[@chilly4496]

Honestly it just felt like they took a dip and decided it wasn’t for them anymore and gave up

[@CezrDaPleazr]

For me Multiverse took an arcadey approach to the game which is fine for early on but they didn't develop much with the ranked playlist for people that wanted to get more engrossed and play it on a competitive level.

They just need more characters and I'm back at it

[@JubioHDX]

I honestly remember the game being fun, had some good sessions using mostly harley quinn n lebron, but i honestly agree with most of those reddit posts. As someone who always grew up with smash bros as the model for these types of fighters the game just felt alot floatier than smash does and it just didnt feel like your attacks had any weight to them in comparison. And it didnt help that it overall feels spammy and sweaty, with a serious balancing issue when it comes to those top level meta characters you mentioned. The update for ranked came way too late to keep most of the sweats online and the lack of nerfs/buffs to the characters that need them never happened to make people who just wanna mess around with all the characters leave just as fast

[@BigPersonaInWonderland]

Tiktok generation is something that I think plays a role even if slightly. Unless a game has a certain charm to it, the game will fall off dramatically because there’s always something to go back to or something new coming out. Mfs have short attention spans so it’s always on to the next

[@Super_Broly]

I was gonna disagree with you but I just downloaded Skyrim again and played it over Hogwarts yesterday 😅😅

[@Rageagainsttheelites]

My reason for not playing was none of the characters felt good to play on pick up like smash does.

I played for a few weeks after it dropped. It was a good game, but it did not really hold my attention. What killed it for me was the character rotation. I mean, yeah, it's my fault for playing a free-to-play game for free, but it hits on the point you mentioned in the video about playing with certain characters.

[@2amlando302]

It hurt my thumbs after like 4 matches

[@YBNKASHWAYS]

I feel like another reason missed is the lack of wanted characters, and the lack of fixing broken characters all the characters are solid, but characters like velma they nerfed pretty hard while now Morty, Iron giant, and superman remain broken so even as a high level player it is almost impossible to compete as any normal character and that sucks.

[@charsage1036]

If something gonna be called a blank killer it's likely the opposite in reality.

[@jasonstrange8181]

I genuinely thought they were going to drop a story mode on the game that never came out. On top of that it took forever for them to update with any new content and when they did, the content wasn’t that impressive

[@Bladesten]

W vid... All facts 💯

[@sizablekoala6879]

I won't say it's dead yet. Skullgirls has come back numerous times for example. However, I most likely won't go back to the game. Like you mentioned, there wasn't much for good rewards to grind for. The micro transactions were as much as $20, and I've bought indie games like Signalis for that.

[@DanJamesV]

....hold on let him cook

[@shizzaun14]

I honestly forgot all about this game till I seen your notification pop up. It wasn’t a bad game, but it felt empty. It’s kind of a shame

[@shoothervandrossbuck-fitty9964]

My main problem I had was the difficulty of couch play

[@SparksMcPasta]

I think multiversus needs to 1. Releases the game on the Nintendo switch (most people who play smash like games play on the switch) 2. Add more cartoon network characters (I cant believe we only have four CN characters from only two different shows) 3. More unique maps (currently there are only 9 unique maps in the game) 4. More single player content 5. Reduce the lag

[@gligarguy4010]

1. Nah, this game already came out for all major platforms according it 0:28. Black Hokage wouldn't lie to us. 2. Pfft, Cartoon Network is for babies. We need some more mature IPs, like...Black Adam? 3. Literally can't argue with that. Smash 64 even had more than that if we count the single player stages.

[@Obad87]

I think one the game full releases and they start putting out new characters again it'll grow.

[@coledeshun]

We need characters that we wanna play! If the start whipping out cartoon network guys like courage, samurai jack, and mordecai then they would be cooking.

[@markhester6556]

Yeah. It's literally a missed opportunity. Who asked for Lebron? Add in legacy characters like the Powerpuff Girls. (they could switch out when one is KO'd same with Ed, Edd and Eddy) Mordecai and Rigby could be a Duo. Ugh.

[@PrivateIslandLxmtlss]

Yeah every comment was valid I feel like multi with a path or two could definitely come back but they taking way to long to drop content let alone the content be a worthy investment.

[@daleketchup7434]

There’s also the lack of single player content. I’d I’m gonna have a crossover, I’d like to have the ability to choose who I am and who I wanna fight against
