What's more is that I still would have given MVCI a chance if the animations were fluid like 3.
This.
It's the one thing that bugs me about infinite which clearly shows the lower budget compared to Ultimate Marvel 3.
We got story mode which was great since Marvel 3 was bare bones but man the animation in Infinite could be better.
Spencer's Bionic arm was legendary in Marvel 3, It was like being hit with a truck but it's like being hit with a scooter in Infinite.
Little things like that all add up. The game had lots of potential but it took too many L's. It's a shame the gameplay wasn't what people
Hindsight is hilarious. I remember 3 being out and everyone hating 3 because it didn’t have as many characters as 2, x-factor blah blah....now 3 is heralded. It def takes time but people will come around.
Happens all the time.
SFIV got complaints about focus attacks, vortexes, Eleana. etc..
Marvel 3 was slaughtered for having Phoenix, X factor, Vergil, Morridoom, etc..
It's just the natural cycle once a sequel is out.
As for infinite, it never took off in a way that SFIV, SFV and Marvel 3 did so it's going to be another Street Fighter x Tekken situation.
I really hope it does turn around but lots of the pros dropped it for DBZ. If there's no developer or community support for the game then no one will come round because it's sunk far too low.
There will need to be another season with X-Men and F4 characters, balance patches and a graphical upgrade for it to be taken seriously again.
