DEEP DOWN
What about it looks like a mess? The visuals? The story?
To be fair, MvCI isn't the first current fighting game that reuses assets from a previous entry (Ex: Smash 4, Injustice 2). If I recall, SFV & GGXrd are the only ones this gen who actually remade their assets (the latter kinda had to). I can understand your graphics complaint & the fear of the game launching half-baked (though Story & Arcade are gonna be there on Day 1, so that's a plus). As for the X-Men, that's more of a complaint for Marvel Entertainment, seeing as they mostly dictate who's allowed to join on their side. There's not much Capcom can do in that regard except try to convince Marvel Entertainment to let some X-Men/F4 in.Sorry for just making the out of hand comment. I will elaborate.
Generally, the product seems to have a lot of warning signs. For one, the graphics don't look super polished. They are reusing assets from MvC3, and they don't look super great (Chris's inexpressive face haunts my nightmares). The lighting engine looks a little rough at the moment as well. This wouldn't be a huge problem, except that the game is set to launch in the near future. This concern over the game not looking particularly finished is aggravated by Capcom's history. Capcom has shown themselves willing to release games before they are ready to be released. SFV is a perfect example of that. Capcom says they have learned from their mistakes, but it is hard to take Capcom at their word these days. Beyond that, we will have to see just how simplified they are making the game. Keep in mind that I am generally happy with many of the decisions they made with SFV, so I am not saying this is a huge shot against MvC:I; but it is just another thing that Capcom has to get right, and you never know with them. Lastly, and one of the big ones, is the murkiness surrounding the X-Men. They are a huge part of the Marvel vs. Capcom series, lacking them would be a HUGE blow.
I don't know, man... What we have been shown just fails to induce a huge amount of confidence in me.

It'll be a major blow for those of us in the know, but Marvel has sadly gotten away with leaving the X-Men/F4 out of games for years with little impact on sales (or profit in the case of the mobile games) in the eyes of the average joe thanks to the MCU's success. Unless MvCI & Lego Marvel 2 spark an uproar, I'm not sure if it'll hurt MvCI in terms of sales for the long-term. And even then, there's the rumored Fox DLC to consider. Jumping off of that point, the reuse of assets may not result in as massive of a roster as I would hope due to said Fox situation, but I'd imagine that somewhere in the high 30's or low 40's for the base roster should be a possibility.I absolutely blame Marvel for the X-Men situation, but it will still be a huge blow to the game if they don't make the cut (even if that isn't Capcom's fault).
As for reusing assets... that is sorta the history of the franchise, but they also used to load those games with characters. If that is what they do in Infinite then fair enough, otherwise we are getting inferior character models and receiving nothing in exchange.
I honestly hope your optimism is rewarded.
All I want from Capcom are Devil May Cry 5 (plays like 3 & 4), Onimusha 5 (plays like 1-3), Dino Crisis 4 (plays like 2), Dragon's Dogma 2 (with the enemy design and magic ideas salvaged from Deep Down), Monster Hunter 5 on PS4 with good visuals and Resident Evil 2 Remake (w/over the shoulder aiming). I could probably die a very happy man after this. Arguments could easily be made as to why Capcom should and could bring these franchises back. There's precedent for games similar to these selling well in the present gaming landscape. Capcom would be stupid to not capitalize.
Whoa, that's all you want? What a reasonable list!
I don't see how announcing DMC5 could affect MvC:I in a bad way. They are two very different games. If anything, DMC5 fans might even feel more compelled to buy MvC:I as soon as possible to play with DMC characters in that game, especially if they are DMC5's Dante and Vergil.I feel like capcom is not gonna announce DMC5 in the fear of overshadowing MvCi character blowout
I highly doubt we'd get both of them in the same event (since they are both huge announcements), so you might have to pick one.I want two things, Monster Hunter and Devil May Cry.
I think I'm going to be disappointed.
God no.Alternatively, you know how people say Nioh is Team Ninja's take on Souls with a mix of Ninja Gaiden?
My new dream game would be Team Itsuno's take on Bloodborne with a mix of Devil May Cry.
God no.
After Demon Souls, 3 Dark Souls, Bloodborne, Nioh and now Code Vein, I don't want Itsuno to do another Souls like game. We have enough of those. What we don't have are action stylish games.
Onimusha and Dino Crisis would make it an amazing show but that ain't happening so no, it'll be shit.
A fucking stand alone Mercenaries game
Upcoming Titles:
Marvel Vs. Capcom: Infinite
Rumored/Speculatory
New Monster Hunter with "World Wide Appeal"
Knights of Aegis [Capcom Vancouver] (Ghost n' Goblins Reboot)
I expect DMCV to be at Sonys conference. Especially after capcom didnt even acknowledge the 15th anniversary. They have to have been working on it.
Why not SFV with Sagat in Season 3? It's far too soon for SFVI (I.E. Another 4 years at the least), plus Capcom still has at least 3 more seasons of SFV DLC planned.Delete SF5, give us SF6 with Sagat.
I actually think MH5 will be a E3. It will probably be a big announcement.As amazing as it would be to see MH at E3 (besides Stories), I'm going to chalk that one down as "Don't hold your breath." The only thing MH related that we could possibly see would probably be MHXX for the West, but that's it. If we were going to see anything with the words "Monster Hunter" and "Switch," it is likely that we'll see that at the Tokyo Game Show where you know the game would explode.
Now the question would be if and when that were to happen: Would it be MHXX for the Switch? or would we see MH5 on Switch?
As for anything else not MH related, I'd imagine that when we see MvC:I, they need to give us a character reveal that will blow our minds, which at this point would have to be someone like Wolverine. Deadpool could count, but then it feels like it would be like a troll response like: "See guys?! The game did get an X-Men character!" But if we just see one X-Men character besides Deadpool, that would be enough to have people lose themselves in the hype.

To be fair, Deadpool was always lumped with the X-Men, so I don't see how he would be considered a cop-out.As amazing as it would be to see MH at E3 (besides Stories), I'm going to chalk that one down as "Don't hold your breath."

Thanks for making my heart hurt again.None of those are Power Stone or Darkstalkers.
