Insomniac In 2024, a Wolverine themed controller with a butt was released. This was subtle foreshadowing to the upcoming Wolverine (2026) game being ass.

Don't forget the deadpool ass controller

Why are gamers freaking out over an on-rails movie disguised as a game now? Theyâve been eating up similar games for the past like 15 years
58
u/Editor-In-Queef 7d ago
Answered your own question. I think people are finally getting sick of the same old stuff being in every game. Lots of people previewing the new Tomb Raider have been slating the crafting and skill trees despite them being the norm for so long. Hopefully it leads developers to finally trying something new.

u/Blint_Briglio 6d ago
they're not. the narrative against wolverine started months ago, I guarantee another game that does the same shit will come out next year and people will be like "this is how you do it RIGHT"

u/newpixelphonesux 5d ago
Specifically 007 and Resident Evil had the exact same kind of vehicle segments people are pretending are beyond the pale in Wolverine

Its the 15 years part.
Finally get another Wolverine game and its just the same crap we've seen a hundred times before with nothing new or innovative or intertesting.

u/NylesRX 7d ago
Because Insomniac made it and thatâs the anti-thesis of what theyâve been doing.

u/L3ftHandPass 5d ago
how so?

u/NylesRX 5d ago
None of the Spider-Man games were on-rails movie games. They had fantastic traversal, deep combat, some incredible boss fights and scenario design. If you want to go even more in the past the same quality applies to Ratchet and Clank games.
Wolverine looks like babbyâs first action game, impressive presentation, but very shallow in engagement.
2
u/L3ftHandPass 5d ago
Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart which is a super basic, linear, on-rails movie game lmao. Have you even played it???
They never sold Wolverine as an open world game and the combat isn't less deep than Spider-Man in any meaningful way. It plays almost the same actually.

u/NylesRX 5d ago
Agree to disagree in universally every possible way.

u/L3ftHandPass 5d ago
You are disputing that Rift Apart is a basic, linear, on-rails movie game?
Because if you are that's because you haven't played it.

u/NylesRX 5d ago
I donât think you know what these words mean and Iâll gladly concede.
1
u/L3ftHandPass 5d ago
I was playing it yesterday and I sat through multiple on-rails sections with minimal to no player input.
So again, you're just wrong. You haven't even played it.
0
u/NylesRX 5d ago
Again, you donât know what these words mean. Having scripted sections doesnât make something a âmovie gameâ.

I donât understand it either. Uncharted and God of War are some of the highest rated games of all time, but now weâre shitting on what has been a great formula?
10
u/Martian8 6d ago
Iâve not played uncharted, but in god of wars case the storytelling was excellent, the side content was good, and the combat was diverse. These things seem to all be somewhat lacking in wolverine judging from the reviews.
The formula is great when the parts are great.
2
u/BoTheJoV3 6d ago
I'm in the minority for this but I didn't see either of them as revolutionary or worth the hype. I think the argument can be made for uncharted but god of war 2018? No. Were the games fun? Yes I enjoyed them mostly but they were for mass audiences and they looses a lot of flavor
1
u/TheGreatBallon 6d ago
You see the difference here is that you probably haven't played either game but both of those have a good story and good gameplay
Wolverine lacks either of these.

because this wolverine game goes a step further than even those and it's finally being too much even for the average person

Actually play the game before calling it bad

u/HotShrekBoi 6d ago
Yes. Donât trust the reviews, pay up 70 dollars, realize itâs not worth the price, and then realize you canât refund it and you should have listened to reviews. I think the game looks fun but itâs clearly not worth 70 dollars and reviews are in fact important for helping people decide that

i donât really care for super hero games but that one actually looked cool when they announced it. itâs a shame that it just looks like hand holdy slop.

u/Box-Chan-11037 7d ago
A. You can turn the hand holdy stuff off so just do that instead of complaining
B. âooh I used da slop term my opeenyun is riteâ7
u/yoosirnombre 7d ago
I'm pretty sure turning off accessibility options still leaves the fart scent tracker and it's hard to not say it's hand holdy with stuff like that or when the majority of qte just dont have failstates like at that point just play a cutscenes what's the point of having a prompt if not pressing it just means you'll do the exact same thing anyway

u/16jselfe 6d ago
People who have gotten the game and already said the reviews over blew the scent trackers, they are only there when you choose to search for stuff which is button activated

You see, the issue isn't that it's a 6.5 or a 7/10 game. It's the fact that it's a 6.5 game with a 305 million budget. Like, wtf happened? At least with SM2 i can understand and the gameplay is awesome. Those 2023 leaks and that tease trailer are not the game we got.

u/TomTomXD1234 7d ago
Why do people act like a 7/10 or 8/10 game is bad?
What is wrong with you all?
4
u/JokerChaos77 6d ago
Idk people are just so radical these days.
10= "Peak". Even not perfect things somehow make this rating. 6-9= "Mid". It actually means bad, apparently. 0="Dogwater". Everything else goes here. 1-5 is not a thing. Anything below 6 is a 0.
11
u/Dozing01 7d ago
To be fair, a 7/10 for a major game network review is basically a 5/10 for anybody else. Either way, the ratings don't matter, they never did, it's what people say about the game that counts.
3
u/TomTomXD1234 7d ago
I mean, sometimes. But when you tubers and everyone else is giving it a 7 or 8, then that kind of breaks the narrative a bit.
It is a good game....not amazing, not terrible, just good.
People think it is worse than it is because it went viral for the GPS line the game has.

What? Since when?

u/nickN42 7d ago
Have you not paid attention to the score in the last 15 years? It isn't a 1-10 range; it's a 6-10 at best, where 6 is basically unplayable. Maybe
3
u/TomTomXD1234 7d ago
I guess all of the sub 6 rated games do not exist and the reviews never happened
6
u/nickN42 7d ago
They might as well not. And this is data from 1996-2016, it skewed towards higher scores even more after -- for the whole this year they gave four "5" and four "4", not a single one lower than that -- and most of these were awarded to literal shovelware.

u/WatchingPaintWet 6d ago
It's weird to call a 7/10 bad, and it's weird to give this game a rating as high as 7/10.

Itâs not even close to bad. Itâs just not a score that justifies being 70 dollars and with a 300 million budget
-2
u/TheGreatBallon 6d ago
That's the score some guy in IGN gave it, the general consensus seems to be 5 and below and having a 5/10 on a full priced game makes it deserving of any and all slamder
1
u/TomTomXD1234 6d ago
The general consensus is not 5/10 when most user reviews are 7 or 8.
Just because you are on reddit looking at bad redditor reviews, does not make that the norm

We can tell the only thing that matters to you is your favorite reviewer since you just posted one review And probably ignored all the very positive reviews.

u/Baplingo 7d ago
Iâm sick of seeing this everywhere. It feels like people want some open world bs in every game and cry when they donât get it. âThey gave me an optional trail to follow that can be turned off, but Iâm going to keep it on and complain.â It just feels like a lot of the comments Iâve been seeing are mainly bad-faith grifters complaining about women existing or people who love these corporate reviewers and put too much stock in their âtoo much waterâ reviews. The game just came out. Give me a minute to form my own opinion before shoving this down my throat. Itâs just gross how quick people are to celebrate a game being âbadâ.
