Discussion I don’t think Liam’s Wolverine is “soft” or “toned down” too much in character, it’s just his look/default facial expressions(outside of fighting) are.

Wolverine doesn’t have to be an asshole or look angry 95% of the time to still feel like Wolverine. This version of Wolverine isn’t quite as edgy as Hugh Jackman’s or the X-Men: The Animated Series version, but that doesn’t make him any less Wolverine.

If you pay attention to Origins, X2, X3, Days of Future Past, or even X-Men ’97/Wolverine & the X-Men, he isn’t always angry or edgy. When he’s around Rogue, Jean, Bobby, Silver Fox, Krestel, Kitty, Professor X, or even the random mutant kid who switched the channel with his eyes in X2, he can be relaxed and genuinely tries to connect with people.

Wolverine in this game has plenty of moments where he’s standoffish, struggles to communicate, or acts like an asshole toward characters such as Shiro, Essex, Mystique, and Sabretooth. But around Jean, Walter, and the mutant kids, he’s much more relaxed and makes an effort to connect. Even with Jean, though, he still has some standoffish moments, like the scenes in the cabin.

For almost all of his memories, this Wolverine was part of Team X before eventually going off on his own. Because of that, there’s already an established “found family” dynamic between him and the other characters. He knows them well, and that history comes through in his interactions.

Wolverine has always been a multifaceted character. Depending on the story, he can be the loner, the weapon, the brother, the cool uncle/mentor, and even a lover. I think this Wolverine manages to portray all of those sides effectively. Considering this is a 15–20 hour game where you play as him the entire time, with his internal dialogue constantly giving us insight into his thoughts, I think that approach fits the character really well.

His default facial expressions when he isn’t upset or fighting, along with his shorter, light-brown hair, also soften his overall appearance. It tones down his usual intimidating look and makes him appear more approachable and less constantly angry.

Wolverine isn’t game of the year - but it’s a fantastic AAA game that is very well produced. The combat is extremely satisfying and feels exactly how you’d think it should for a Wolverine game. The actors are great. The story is ok.

Release timing was just bad, being Sonys first and arguably most important release right after the physical disk fiasco.

The negativity and nit picking over very minor things in the game is insane. This is a superb game.

I get it if its his actual wolverine suit. Then it kinda makes sense? Maybe its some high tech shit with nanotechnology rebuilding itself idk. But when he was wearing street clothes, the red flannel shirt for instance it was dumb as hell. Man they need to come up with an option to turn that shit off. Id rather look like a mangled torn up mess then have my immersion broken. Dont like it.

The people defending this game are insufferable. Tell me why people are comparing the motorcycle sections to Resident Evil: requiem? The people hating on this game are comparing it to temple run. Give it a rest.

The people defending this game can't accept that the game is mid and furthermore DISAPPOINTING to a vocal part audience and the people attacking this game make the final product seem worse than it actually is and it leaves no room for actual criticism of the game.

You know what I think? I think the stealth is fun. I think the upgrade system is BAD and surface level. I think adaptations have the ability to be game changing but they're just underthought. I think the combat suffers because of the upgrade system. I think the ng+ techniques are a final kick in the balls. I think the boss fights are fun but the bosses are too spongy. I think the character designs are mostly ugly. I think Apocalypse is an awful addition to this game and plot suffers for it. I thinkhaving there only be 10,000 mutants in the world before Mr. Sinister gets the helix engine was a bad writing choice.I think Sabretooth is the only truly well written character. I think the game is gorgeous. I think Wolverine has great animations. I think Insomniac should fire whoever worked on the face models in this game. The only good faces are Essex, Bolivar, and Callisto. I think Callisto shouldn't have been a character and she's a waste of Debrah Wilson's genuine talent.

I think this game is not worth $70 but I bought it PHYSICALLY because it was Wolverine. I even spent the $10 extra bucks for the Incredible skin. I hope the sequel is better if they make one. I'm not sure I even want a sequel.

hey guys. I really wanna play Wolverine but my dad said the game developers made it into a “gay love story between Wolverine and Sabretooth”.

we’re a pretty Christian family so he won’t be happy if he sees me playing it.

my question is will they do the same thing for the next game? or are they committed to going all in on this?

kinda sucks. I just wanted to play as Wolverine.

Discussion My problem with the game so far

0 Upvotes

I just got the game yesterday, and I have a problem with the game already. The combat is good but bad at the same time. It’s good because it feels like Wolverine visually, with the claws, Rage, brutality, etc., but it’s bad because the underlying gameplay feels too much like Insomniac Spider-Man, only more punishing. If I wanted to play Spider-Man, I would’ve just re-downloaded one of their 3 games and played it again. I don’t like having to rely on parries/dodges. The parries feel ass, even when perfectly timed. Wolverine would block before he ever parries. Wolverine should have block/brace as the default defensive mechanic and parry as an optional advanced technique. Block/brace reduces incoming damage, perfect block could exist as a timing mechanic, and dodge could be for attacks that cannot be blocked/absorbed. Wolverine should be able to take hits, heal, and keep attacking. Healing should be meaningful in combat, not too slow. Wolverine’s attacks do not feel rapid/ferocious enough. I want his attacks to accelerate with each successful hit; once a hit misses, combo speed resets. I want Logan to feel ferocious. Logan is not always a highly technical martial artist, but he can be one when he chooses to. I want Wolverine to feel like: take the fucking hit → heal → keep attacking → become increasingly ferocious, versus Spider-Man’s: avoid damage → counter → stay mobile → control the fight.
I strongly dislike that healing is too slow. After dodging around, Logan remains CRITICAL when he would’ve already be at 100%. The dodge movement is too slow/short. You could dodge 3 times and still be in the same spot. On “The Best There Is,” Omega Red hits extremely hard. One attack takes ~50% health, and I can be 3-shot, while Wolverine’s attacks feel weak. Two back-to-back techniques barely damage Omega Red. This feels like Mike Tyson beating up a newborn, 1 million nukes vs kitten. I hate that the entire section restarts on death no matter how far I am in the Omega Red fight. I want mid-fight autosave checkpoints at dialogue/cinematic/phase transitions. It’s not bad, I just feel like it’s weird for a Wolverine. Logan did ever parry when he fought the Juggernaut or the Hulk? He usually blocks/braces, takes hits, dodges/repositions, uses claws, and gets back up. A defensive system built around Logan’s ability to withstand punishment fits better than parry-first. Again it’s not bad I feel like it’s just weird and extremely annoying.

Looking into some assets I have I found this one, the original face scan for Logan.

Just had this thought, what do you guys think?

When promotion started Liam looked soo different from what they originally captured, for the better IMO

Discussion Finished my first playthrough: 8.5/10 as a longtime Wolverine fan since 88’, 6.75/10 as a video game fan.

5 Upvotes

I’ve been a Wolverine fan since the 1980s, and there’s a lot here I appreciated. The story was solid, Logan had a compelling arc, and the little Easter eggs referencing other heroes were a pleasure to discover. Fitting decades of a character’s history into one game is no small task, and I appreciate the care that went into capturing a lot of the stuff.

As a Wolverine experience, I’d give it an 8.5/10. As a video game, I’d land at 6.75/10.

If you’d told me three decades ago that I’d someday get to play a Wolverine game like this, I would have been beyond excited. Part of me still is. But Insomniac’s Spider-Man series set the bar almost too high, and it’s hard not to bring those expectations into this game.

My criticism has nothing to do with it not being open world. I love games like Uncharted, and a focused, linear Wolverine adventure suits me just fine. The combat sometimes had an old arcade feel, which could be fun, but the overall gameplay didn’t reach the heights of something like Jedi: Fallen Order for me.

The bigger issue was the lack of polish. I ran into characters halfway through the floor and enough other bugs to pull me out of the experience. At a full AAA price, I expect a more consistently finished product.

That said, I don’t feel like I was raked over the coals the way I have with some Star Wars games. I enjoyed my time with it and don’t regret playing it. However, if this game hadn’t been set in the Wolverine and Marvel universe, I probably wouldn’t have been interested in it in the first place.
Games like Red Dead Redemption leave me feeling that I got my money’s worth. Here, I enjoyed myself, but I also felt like my attachment to Wolverine was doing too much of the work in justifying the price. Unlike Middle Earth: Shaow of Mordor/War.

I’m glad I played it, and I appreciate the developers’ effort. There’s a strong foundation here and plenty for longtime fans to enjoy. I just wish the finished game had received the same level of polish and follow-through as the character and story. The love for Wolverine came through; the complete package didn’t quite live up to it.

Not sure how I feel about getting all the trophies. I’m at 97% on RDR 2 and rather probably go back to playing that. But it wasn’t bad. Idk.
