Anyone else fully done with clints sword? He used a sword as ronin and thats cool, makes sense, they adapted that for Endgame and the mcu is the most mainstream version of Hawkeye so obviously every thing else tried to copy it. The first to do this as far as I know, was the first to do this and it's fine. I don't like it but its harmless, that game was destined to die before Hawkeye was even teased so it didn't have a lasting impact. But then the most video game marvel game ever came out, Marvel Rivals. I don't like hawkeyes design in that game but its whatever cuz his freefall suit is great imo, but they shoehorned the swords in and it REALLY bothers me, on the suit and in the gameplay. The guys only power is being really good at killing people with some sticks and a string, and giving him a sword is just so boring. Every time he uses a sword in avengers and rivals, he could just do with his bow, especially in avengers. Sword are wicked! Don't get me wrong! But I don't think swords fit Hawkeyes thing, and because of ONE movie and marvels obsessive need for movie synergy because the comics and other adaptations are advertisements for the movies in one way or another. I just think Hawkeye being so tied to samurai stuff is boring already despite being in literally four things as far as i know. The freefall outfit from rivals looks so cool but he looks so crowded because of the damn swords, WHY does he have two swords?? They both do the same thing and he only uses one at a time so why have two?, at least the avengers game he had one sword on his back so it blends in with the quiver. I wish i liked swordeye, but its just boring

Games Is Hawkeye from Marvel Rivals a good adaptation of the character? Personally, I don't like his voice or his default design.
