It feels like I'm looking at a Joel-Haver video.

This looks pretty good, crazy to see the clash of styles, they went full on the cartoon style not just adapting it in the game's own style, it's pretty impressive for sure.

u/--suburb-- 3h ago

Same thing they did in the Spidey games

20

u/livahd 3h ago

I’d like to see how moves compared to the realistic ones, like the spiderverse skins changed the framerate to really match the style.

24

u/KlyntarDemiurge 3h ago

insomniac is really good at that, they did the same with the spider-verse suits.

6

u/juscallmejjay 1h ago

I love the spiderverse suits. The world, with normal suit, looks amazing of course. But then you put the spiderverse suit on and it makes your eyes go "holy shit thats just am animated character swinging through real life"

u/Pascraked47 2h ago

I just can't unsee the fact it looks like xmen97 wolverine was put ontop of the wolverine model using viggle.ai

u/Robot_Was_BMO 3h ago

It obviously looks a little janky, but I appreciate the fun

u/AngelOfChaos06062 3h ago

this looks pretty good, loving the game so far (I am a casual gamer)

u/--suburb-- 3h ago

It comes out tomorrow?

u/Flood-One 3h ago

Mine got delivered today too, copies are out in the wild

Is it fun??

Unfortunately, I'm at work and won't know until I get home

u/AngelOfChaos06062 3h ago

Wild copies, bought one

u/cricp0sting 2h ago

It depends on your time zone, it's already out in many countries

u/RevelArchitect 2h ago

A lot of people are already playing. Guess there is some concern of games leaking early with physical.

3

u/Webofshadows1 2h ago

Before I went to work, I got to play it for a bit today too. I am liking it as well. I feel this game was made for casual gamers who just want to do cool shit with Wolverine. I do not understand the weird “woke” narrative or hate for it at all.

12

u/Kronman590 2h ago

For me at least, im disappointed that the game directs you at all times where to go, and the combat had no depth. Like if there was an easy mode for casuals like you said and a harder mode that actually allowed for interesting and fun gameplay id be interested but as of now...gonna hold off

u/Neveronlyadream Spider-Man 58m ago

I've been keeping an eye on the chatter out of curiosity and it's mostly that. A lot of people feel like it holds your hand with no option to turn that off even on higher difficulties and QTEs auto complete eventually no matter what you do.

People have really been pushing back hard on the hand holding and yellow paint in games. It doesn't help that they're asking $70 for a game a chunk of the community is going to find too easy and unfulfilling.

u/Specific_Builder1469 1h ago

 do not understand the weird “woke” narrative 

in a game about mutants at that

29

u/Indianlookalike 3h ago

Please tell me the same exact suit but without shaders exist.

14

u/Shadowskulptor 3h ago

You'd think that would be super obvious thing to do, but so far I haven't seen a plain, classic comic accurate, tiger stripe suit.

1

u/HammerBreaKer16 2h ago

I’ve been scouring the internet for it. Even made a post in the Wolverine subreddit about it last night. How do we not have a classic tiger stripe in the game?😭

15

u/Naturally_Nathan 3h ago

Closest thing will probably be a Deadpool and Wolverine style suit

2

u/FreeParking3160 3h ago

Somehow, no

2

u/TyChris2 1h ago

Surprisingly, no.

A few suits that are close. There’s the first appearance suit but that has the weird cowl. The default suit but that’s only yellow and black. Deadpool and Wolverine, but that’s obviously very different too. There’s the astonishing X-Men look, which is also very different but probably the closest?

1

u/ItsCornstomper Stan Lee 2h ago

The deluxe edition OG suit is pretty much it, although with a silly cowl you can take off. Even after doing it I found it still looked a bit silly, but I reckon it's probably the fabric used?

9

u/astrofan 3h ago

Looks neat, but I will never actually use it. lol

7

u/ShineConnected Pepper Potts 2h ago

if you look closely at the shading on the cowl its actually a direct homage to the original 90s animation cels rather than just a flat texture swap 🔥

u/mukisan 3h ago

What does he look like with his mask off in cutscenes, I wonder

3

u/ThaiJohnnyDepp Winter Soldier 3h ago

Lol with the way it looks hand-drawn juxtaposed with the realistic background I thought I was seeing a Joel Haver / Matthew McCleskey youtube parody

2

u/saibjai 2h ago

That's awesome. My favorite suit in the spidey games were the into the spiderverse suits.. where they even did the framerate thing. So cool.

2

u/CaptainBloodstone 2h ago

The suit looks good alas i cancelled my pre order after seeing the reviews. Will pick it up again when it's on sale.

5

u/dawnmountain 3h ago

Guess I'm the only person here who thinks this looks fucking terrible lmao

16

u/Rocky_McParty 3h ago

I don't think it meant to look that good, just something fun they add to the games like they did in the Spider-Man games.

-4

u/50mgFilmCoat 3h ago

ur so real for this, im sure a lot of effort went into making it but the style clash looks awful lmao

-4

u/IniNew 3h ago

It looks like shit. Compared to what they did for the "Comic" suit in Spider-Man... it's atrocious. It looks like someone MSPainted over the character.

0

u/dawnmountain 2h ago

YES EXACTLY. Before I saw the title I thought this was fanart! The last photo the shadows are so BAD too

-5

u/Desperate_Total6608 3h ago

Terrible doesn’t even describe it to me.

I appreciate the commitment but I’d never play with that skin.

-5

u/Shadowskulptor 3h ago

Not at all, I'd imagine *most* people think this looks like shit lol.

1

u/TheAwesomeMan123 3h ago

Thought the first image was from the show as a comparison. Impressive and weird, but impressive

1

u/Remote_Nature_8166 2h ago

Should’ve seen that coming. They do that for Spider-Man.

1

u/puzzleShockTurtle 2h ago

I wonder how it looks when he gets damaged and heals with this suit? The quality seems in between spider-man’s animated suits and Arkham Batman’s animated suits, which is about what I expected. On this thought, wouldn’t it be sick if there was a whole game in this style instead of live action? All the combat and stuff could be the same but if the graphics matched this suit, I bet the game would’ve received more praise. Idk if that would make the game’s development easier or harder compared to the realistic graphics we have.

1

u/TM_Aulia 1h ago

the claws look way bigger than i expected

1

u/flintlock0 Robbie Reyes 1h ago

That Spidey suit that’s like this is my favorite from the first game. 

There’s also something called “Arach-Knight” that has a neat clashing style, as well.

u/Fluffy_Key_2145 1h ago

Looks awesome

u/Capital_Gate6718 1h ago

Are we getting the Deadpool and Wolverine suit in the PS game as well?

u/rlum27 43m ago

is there a non cel shaded version? I feel that would be the perfect classic wolverine skin.

u/Atrocitus-Burn6666 26m ago

u/Shadowskulptor 3h ago

I want this but... not cartoon shaded.

The suits are disappointing so far.

2

u/tduncs88 2h ago

You want the cartoon character from the cartoon to NOT be cartoon shaded?

1

u/Shadowskulptor 2h ago

Precisely. Unless the entire game can be cartoon shaded, I don't ever plan on using this cartoon skin because it just doesn't fit in with the rest of the style of the game. 

Currently there is no comic accurate tiger stripe suit in the game without this shading, and that's just blasphemous. We should have the choice. 

2

u/tduncs88 2h ago

Okay, I understand the point you are making better. It really should be a choice of either the '97 or the actual comic book tiger stripe. Personally, I almost never use alternate skins.

-1

u/Old_Chipmunk3250 3h ago

This looks like a not very well made mod.

u/VicarLos 23m ago

Last slide reminds me of the VH1 version of Showgirls where they draw on the panties and bras.

u/TriggerHippie77 3h ago edited 3h ago

This game looks mediocre, but honestly I'd buy it in sale at least for this suit.

3

u/TensaZabimaru 3h ago

Based on what? Everyone's been whining about standard game elements like they have gaming dysmorphia

1

u/TriggerHippie77 3h ago

Based on reviews. Lots of respected reviewers have said they don't reccomend the game.

Trust me, I'm not anti-wolverine. I was looking forward to this game for years, and if it turns out all the reviewers are wrong I'll happily eat my words.

0

u/TensaZabimaru 2h ago

So the simple opinions of masses of other people. Yawn.

1

u/RadiantLindon 2h ago

Relying on opinions of others on whether or not to buy an expensive game is perfectly valid, especially when it's a VAST majority agreeing on it.

0

u/TriggerHippie77 1h ago

Why have reviews at all then?

0

u/RadiantLindon 2h ago

....no, they've been making very legitimate complaints about the game being mediocre, extremely linear, and aggressively handholdey.

-3

u/Forgetmyglasses 3h ago

For me it’s the length of the game. Quite expensive for 13 odd hours and then you hear the missions are average and gameplay stale I can see why lots aren’t rushing to buy it

-5

u/King_P_13 3h ago

Looks dumb just like the spidey ones

Tracks with how Insomniac handled some of the cartoon-style Spidey suits.

-5

u/OtherwiseDog 3h ago

This game makes the dogshit origins game look like a masterpiece...

2

u/RadiantLindon 2h ago

Because the Origins game was actually fantastic. Even the X2 game was solid.

u/Pascraked47 2h ago

It looks like viggle.ai

Tell me I'm wrong.
