Marvel has been trying to get all the fame it’s racked up in the comic book world and, more recently, the movie world, transferred to video games. So far the experience has been bittersweet, with headlines sticking (avengers), compared to other more famous ones (guardians of the galaxy). Now another comes to us which changes the third and plunges us into purely tactical and strategic development. what can you expect from Marvel’s Midnight Suns?
Les Enfants de Minuit lands on our consoles
Last Friday, December 2, the game of Marvel’s Midnight Sunsone of this year’s bets that comes to us from the hand of a few gentlemen who will seem familiar with many other games that have launched and topped the hit lists: phyraxia. We owe them names like Civilization there XCOM. How does it sound?
This title is a complete tactical RPG that will take us to the comic book universe in which a terrible threat hangs over our world and that only a privileged few such as Doctor Strange, Iron Man, Spider-Man or the Scarlet Witch will be able to face this . One of the attractions of this new development, right from the start, is that presents the first customizable superhero in a Marvel gameas well as a completely original story created especially for the video game.
The player will take possession of Hunter, the protagonist who will team up with Earth’s Mightiest Heroes to defeat the fearsome Lillith. Now well, Marvel’s Midnight Suns has that outer shell of heroes and villains who want to destroy the world order but, inside, shines a development typical of those we have seen in the series XCOM although with limitations. This means managing a full team of characters, their abilities, and turn-based battles structured from cards that give us powers, advantages, and resources.
A real pleasure that goes even further in the Firaxis formula which has always offered such good results in all aspects of the saga.
What’s happening on PC?
It seems that it has become a habit that, of all the versions that come to market, the PC version is the worst stage. Obviously, it might be the one that manages to collect the least of them all, but that’s not why computer users deserve that string of necessary patches to fix things. And sadly, to those who purchased this Marvel’s Midnight Suns They got the porcelain (the stone of the game) because you only have to look around Steam to see that tempers are racing. or by Metacritic, where it garners a score of 4.8 from PC users against 83% of critics and specialist media.
The main problem is the stuttering (stuttering) of the game that occurs even on hardware configurations that exceed the recommended requirements, which has no explanation, so I hope that in the next few days Firaxis will release a patch that will completely fix it.
Are you going to buy it? If you are a fan of Marvel and a development (more or less) XCOM don’t even doubt it. Another thing is that you want to experiment to try it. So the best thing is that you wait for them to update it and you can hunt a good offer.
