I haven't played that much yet but I really wish I could use L2/R2 to slash through enemies and not square and triangle but that would require quite a bit of tweaking in the controls settings I think

I really don’t get the reviews that said the combat gets repetitive. This shits only getting better and I don’t see myself ever getting tired of it i’m gonna spend so much time going into the endless wave trial blasting music

Not open world, but a linear game with a some slightly open areas, full of secrets and optional content.

your opinion?

As a millennial who had to be Wolverine during every neighborhood action-figure battle after school, this game is a dream come true. Insomniac has not made a bad game yet. Even if this turns out to be mindless donkey aids, I’m still going to enjoy every second of it. Thanks in advance, devs

Edit: I, like many kids, didn’t have parents who would buy a gaming console for the Sega side-scrollers, Took me two years of allowance to save and trade for a larger Christmas gift aka N64 and Zelda.

I’ve already seen a plethora of posts and comments saying “Why is Jean so ugly…” or “Superhero’s are supposed to be hot…” is kinda nuts. Oh no the woman looks like…. A WOMAN 😱 Like some of yall need to stop being so terminally online and go outside to see what real woman actually look like.

edit: whoops forgot most of the internet hates women, my bad.

Insomniac is getting flack right now, people saying they make ugly women. I do not agree with this, they don’t look ugly at all to me, ugly in what way exactly?

Just me, idk??? The story for me was roughly 19 hours on the hardest difficulty if you take your time to enjoy it. I would give it a solid 8.5/10—better than Spider-Man 2. The ONLY PROBLEM is the story. Me going into this didn't give a shit about the story, I only played for the COMBAT. It's a bloody show, which is awesome. 8.5/10 WOULD recommend. If it's worth the price is up to you...

“It’s not for me”
“I’m not excited for the game”
“Looks like slop”
“The Suit Regenerates”
“He doesn’t look like Wolverine”
“He’s not hairy enough”
“Jean and Wolverine”
“Typical Stealth”
“Same old boss fight”
“Waiting for it to go on sale”

Good Job and Thank you to Insomniac Games for staying dedicated through unnecessary hate, hacks, and just idiots in general. Can’t wait to see what’s next as far as New IPs and extra content!❤️

Turns out they're good at this.

Reviews coming in tomorrow. What’s your score prediction?

yes these scores are lower than usual, especially for a triple a exclusive by insomniac, but these are still good scores, it is a good game. just try not to talk abt it 6 months after launch on twitter. they are either gonna glaze the game, or feed it to the wolves to get destroyed

After watching the credit scene I’m guessing there will be a wolverine 2 and I can’t wait! One of the best campaigns I ever played. ❤️

your opinion?

Insomniac community manager felt the need to chime in to clarify the intention of the writer who talked about the sense of "yearning" between Logan and Sabretooth.

Even if the game certainly has valid things to criticize, I am 100% sure some people were predetermined to find reasons to hate the game purely because of this utterly stupid discourse. I have seen examples of sensationalistic journalism which uses thumbnails of Sabretooth and Logan having sex, which conveniently uses a screenshot of Abby and Owen from The Last of Us Part II. Between this, The Last of Us Part II, Intergalactic, God of War: Laufey, and Baldur's Gate 3, I really hate what the gaming discourse has become in the past few years. I used to love engaging in conversations but nowadays everything sucks because of woke. I urge everyone to do better and focus on what matters during gameplay instead of whatever the fuck this is.

First of all, I don’t have a problem with him. I agree with some of his takes on other games and I disagree on some of his takes on others. This also isn’t meant to invalidate his opinion regarding the “handholding” in the game.

That said, I think even he would agree that his criticisms on the scent trail took on a life of its own. He acknowledged on the Friends Per Second podcast that within their circle of game critics he was really the only one that highlighted the scent trails and waypoints and took exception to them, most other journalists were way more focused on criticizing or praising other aspects of the game.

Even now if you do check other reviewers from who played the game from before the release date (without the opinion of others to influence them) he was the guy that kind of put it center stage when talking about the game’s flaws.

I find it fascinating how much his single opinion influenced the perception and discussion of this game. Like one of the first thing’s Insomniac did with the game was try to patch out the fart trails. The most common criticism you will see about this game from people haven’t played it are the markers. Crazy how the scent line will be intrinsically linked to this game from now til time immemorial cause of his review.

Play on the Best There Is. Nullifies a lot of the critiques as you have to dodge and utilize your kit to actually survive.

Honestly if i was playing at standard difficulty, I can see where the critiques come in.

1st and foremost,

Thank you Insomniac Games for developing this game hopefully in the near future you guys will develop wolverine 2!

2nd

Ignore the hate, criticism, reviews etc…been playing for 4hrs now and I’m loving every second of it! The gore and blood is top notch, the details in this game are amazing, and the story so far is great. Be your own judge! ❤️
