Are those Marvel Ultimate Alliance games worth it?
Can someone give me a reason why MUA collection is not worth 23 bucks if I love those style of games?
If you like the MUA games, or Marvel stories in this style of game. Top down action RPG, then they are worth it.
From what I know and played, at least on PC, they have been patched to be playable at least. Sadly a lot of the bugs and original problems from their initial releases are still in these ports.
MUA 2 has better gameplay but worse RPG elements, the first has better RPG elements and more variety in areas but geezuz play on easy or with other people. The AI in the first game makes it an exercise in frustration on normal. I downright uninstalled it cause I just could not take it anymore, note this was an issue in the original version too. Like if there are two enemies on screen, the AI will attack the opposite one from you, but their damage is scaled back massively so they cant kill it, nor will they help you. And there is an AI "defense, attack" blah blah button but it only lasts a handful of seconds...
Good games and stories (though I feel like the second falls apart hard at the end) but they definitely did not age well in certain aspects. 2 games for $23 is a good deal though I'd say. They are not exactly short, but not too long either.
