Dudes got a light saber, teleports, wall clinging, webs, a scythe, shoots fire, laser beams, a bunch of shit I can't even remember.
Looks like they're going with mmx 1 sigma unless they treat him like zero and give him moves from other games as well.
AND WOW THAT X COMBO VIDEO!!!
MAHVEL BAYYYBEEE!!!

Here's that Aris rant from earlier. I thought he'd be sarcastic like usual and after reading the "Chun looks like Sajam with makeup" comment but he's really on point.
Also holding gem mechanics hostage by making them unlock through story seems sketch. I can see a lot of people skipping story cutscenes to get those and feeling frustrated.
NRS holding characters behind storywall is also annoying but at least their story modes aren't horrendous.

Gems are not going to be locked in MP, just story.
Because, you know, you can't use one till you collect it!
I think they mean you have to unlock the Infinity Stones within the story itself. I'd imagine that the Infinity Stones will be available from the start in Versus/Training/Online/Arcade/Missions.
They're not held hostage through Story Mode. Just you unlock them for use in the story mode as you canonically progress.

So that teleport that Ultron-Sigma was doing was likely Sigma's ability?
Nice.
I fought Sigma in X4-X6 and he varied in all of them. I know he would go from wall to wall to attack for the most part.
I can't wait to see him in action.
It's a terrible demo. The game seems fun, but the demo is terrible. The story isn't shown well, and the enemies all die so quickly you have almost no time to learn anything.Its really starting to suck with how quick they die. I'm starting to get limited on how much I can do.

This game needs to be delayed until further notice, it looks very underwhelming and off.
The best / smartest thing Capcom could do right now is release the VS demo that is at E3.
But they have proven time and time again that smart isnt in the table right now at Capcom.
Maybe they see the lught and release it after E3 is over... who am I kidding.

Why is the FGC giving Aris the time of day still?

I think the demo is perfect for it's intended audience, plebs like me who are garbage at fighting games. We just want to see our favorite capcom and marvel characters team up, trash some robots, and throw quips at each other.
I feel this is intentional, so we stay thirsty for the game.
Ooophhh, that's a good point. I don't doubt Destiny 2 will overtake social media and forums; the only folks who will be caring about Marvel are going to be the same small crowd that's posting in this thread. The fact that its not as flashy as Injustice or Tekken is going to hurt it, too.
And if fans with pre-release copies and reviewers relay bad impressions of the story mode, arcade mode, etc. ahead of launch the game is guaranteed to be in trouble.

As in "Heathcliff"
I think he still have one attack from MVC2 but I have to watch the video again to make sure.

Dante looks off
The X video is nice though.
Still on the fence on the game, it could have been so much better...

Thanks. Really needed the laugh.
True dat.
Unfortunately it's been over a year since SFV's release and Capcom never turned it around. The stigma from launch week is still there, and just as intense. All I had to do was look at the user reviews the recent free betas got. Which is sad. But they have nobody to blame but themselves. MvCI has some silly things like poor-looking faces but it seems to be a solid fighter with the solo content that SFV didn't launch with so it would be a bit of a shame if it got hit in the "crossfire."
That said, the amount of negativity this game is receiving is ridiculous. It's unwarranted.

The only move I've seen is a basic attack that fugly ass drop kick. It looks better now but it's still hilarious to look at.
hmm..
Hmm they seemed to have invited well known MvC players to test out their latest game. Shocking.

Hope they have a demo with vs mode in it... story mode was kind of boring.
I don't care for the male models in the game, too much liefeld influence.

Max and others playing on the floor are noticing that the lightning is better than the story build. Which might be why the dumb gameplay trailer looks better than what we got. Still need to fix the fucking faces and animations and that probably won't happen.

They're just staying accurate to what Ken looked like in SFIV.
"fake hype"
We really are just Gamefaqs-tier these days around here arent we?
That sounded like the ramblings of a madperson.
See this is what's insane about this situation. People actively wanting this game to be garbage. Any positive impressions must be fake and paid off.

Yes he uses both of those. Also his kicks seem to all be gun moves.

He has all his DMC3 weapons.
Aris being the voice of reason. This game looks awful compared to pretty much every fighting game recently released and upcoming. It really doesn't matter how well the game plays. Damn near anyone is going to take one look at it then walk away.
It ridiculous just how much Capcom has fallen these past years. I expect so much more out them. The way this game looks is unacceptable.
You LITERALLY just said "it doesnt matter how well it plays"
regarding a fighting game.
We are officially in crazy town.

Aside from claiming pro-players are paid off (which technically isn't true but you can't deny that people who play these for a living have a vested interest in the game's success), he has very valid points.

Saying it doesn't matter how it plays doesn't mean its shit, he just means he thinks it's going to fail for that reason
he's probably right tbh.

Almost seems like Aris is talking down a straw man argument, that people are saying you should support MvC:i because it's a fighting game and part of the community (regardless of what you think of it). Who is saying that?
I am speaking in terms of marketability. You know, the stuff that keeps a game afloat. Of course when it comes to the game itself it matters how it plays.

Ask me about the moon landing or the temperature at which jet fuel burns. You may be surprised at what you learn.
So, how did being a well playing fighting game work out for SFV?

Real talk: did anyone really say Chun-Li was looking her best?
Just started listening to Aris' rant.

He tweeted out videos and specifics about the game. Let's not pretend like he hasn't talked about the finer points of the game. It's right on his twitter timeline.
