God damn footdive & it's stupid top priority BS.


Doom was the only guy they could've picked. I'm sure someone is crying that they didn't choose Moleman over him.

How high should I modify my Iso-8 pieces?

I've only gone up to two for most of them, but I figured it might be good to eventually raise them up higher.

Also, which ones would you recommend deconstructing?

Double post:

Finished the Dark Dimension. Part way through I abandoned thematic characters and started using the X-men.

They won me the day, though whether that's the real reason I pulled it off, or if it's just because I figured out what to do (and that you hit Dormammu's fists to hurt him) is hard to say.

Whatever the case, saved as soon as I got to Attilan. I may take some time to do a bit of levelling up again. Haven't decided yet.

Took care of the Inhumans level.

Man, that was short compared to others. You can tell they wanted to keep that to a minimum. Way to be subtle with the Take That! Marvel. I'm not shocked though.

Anyway, as a further take that, I used the X-Men for that entire level. In fact, due to a combination of them working pretty well, and the constant bitchign of an acquaintance that I should just use them all the time, I'm going to be using them for the rest of the game.

I'm in Wakanda, and Storm and Black Panther have shown up (surprised to see that relattionship referenced). Storm in now in the party permanently.

I think you are looking too much into it.

Hardly counts as a "take that", seems bit of a reach. Wakanda isn't that long either.

And it think you meant Team Ninja.

surprised to see that relattionship referenced

She's been showing up a lot in the current Black Panther book.

Even after they broke up they remained friends and allies.

Do see why there would be a problem referencing it.

Maybe. It's not like I dislike the Inhumans and all. I just feel they got the raw end of the entire thing oddly enough.

Yes they got a massive push, but it came at the expense of the Mutants, which angered people enough to sour them on the entire Inhumans brand (that damned T.V. show didn't help, even if Agents of Shield did kinda use the concept well), and now outside of Kamala Khan / Ms. Marvel, they've basically disappeared.

We will not be seeing much out of them for a while, and with how popular Kamala is, I feel like she'll eventually get the Quicksilver / Scarlet Witch treatment and have her Inhuman origin retconned out.

And the thing is, they could have been great, but there are so many things people refuse to do to make them better.

The entire Alpha Primitives debacle is one issue. I don't know if the Royal Family condones it or not (and I imagine whether they do so changes with each writer) but just having them there looks bad.

The Inhumans as a concept has the same potential as any group of characters. You just have to play to their strengths...otherwise Cyclops steals your moon home.

Lots of ignorance on my part, but I'm still under the impression the Richards carries the team.

That's not to downplay the rest of the FF but whenever there's a crisis Richard is the man to go to.

Sue is explicitly the most powerful member.

Reed is smart, and is the planner, but (and I don't really hate Reed to be clear) he's always the one with issues about how intelligent he is and often alienates friends and family with his decision.

Plus, he's the reason they even are the Fantastic Four (and that Ben is the Thing) which many fans still hold against him.

Reed is the most flawed of the team.

As well-intentioned he is, he usually winds up causing a lot of their major problems.

Yes. This.

And due to likely being Too Clever by Half, when he messes up, he does so spectacularly, as is often the case for characters like him.

In short, he’s an asshole.

Hell, in the previous Ultimate Alliance game the entire problem that nearly destroyed the planet was his fault, as the result of him experimenting with eliminating free will in ex-con volunteers for his side of Civil War.

Well he's an asshole at his absolute worst, when writers focus entirely on those points.

He also genuinely believes Dr. Doom could be something great if he reformed, and at his best is a loving father, husband and friend.

It's just that, like many characters these days the people who write him take all his worst traits and focus on them for drama.

Credit to Sue for staying faithful........ usually.

I know Reed is an immense handful but dumping him for Namor isn’t an improvement.

Even as someone who likes Reed...if Sue's gonna leave him for someone else, she should at least have better options.

We all know Namor'ed screw a fish monster. His tastes are cosmopolitan after all.
