    I really liked Midnight Suns :(

    I got to play video games with spider man and be in a book club with Captain marvel.

    The deck building was pretty good. I wanted more cards and more excuses to use more heroes.

    The fact that there’s no miss chance on attacks is subtle but a real improvement over the genre standard. And using the environment was a lot of fun, and very genre appropriate.

      I tried to play is earnestly after Epic gave it out for free, but while gameplay indeed is actually quite good, three factors are still bad:

      • Disappointment, this is the game from X-Com developers, while there is no next X-com game for years after the last one was not only a commercial hit but genuinly best game in genre, the only thing they did is the Chimera Squad which was extreme disappointment. It’s really no way around that.
      • Optimisation really sucks, comparable games are working smooth for me and this crap does not and never was no matter what i tried
      • Marvel banter, i HATE it, capital letters. I don’t hate Marvel universe but holy shit they should shut the fuck up sometimes. Even the pompous style of original comics was better because at least it was unintentionally funny unlike this pathetic crap served nowadays.
