Yes, it is good, but it is not something revolutionary for the current era. There are many games that surpass it in visual quality in the field of phone games.

I came in around X-Force this year and hadn't been since shortly after No Way Home. I've been going through some things, films and music as well and seeing if my critique has changed since then. You clearly enjoyed the Sneak Peeks a lot. I do think they upped their cinematic production game. I point to the first cut screen in The Marvels quest. I can see classes have been taken with that because I can see the same type of pans and transitions that are used on a film set represented there. That was a nice treat imo. That may have not been a good thing though and I do mean the Hype. You were very, very excited about Doctor Strange. I was more looking at the rest, oddly as Strange is one of the characters that drew me into comic books. And what happened then? The expectations were crushed weren't they? When you opened the present so to speak it wasn't all that great. Without saying I assumed you were holding out hopes for something that would topple Dark Phoenix (*see below please fellow players). On the other you appeared very fond of Man-Thing and the bonus especially to new players that one provides. Follow this logic through the rest of the updates. I can't speak for the year being a Return. I didn't know when things came around (Wiki's are sorely outdated). I agree about Timeline Survival and then some. There are a lot of good drops in there and Energy. I note that because the biggest complaint I've seen is "it cost X Energy". No it doesn't, it actually drops Energy among a lot of others things. On that from my POV what I see as the best thing I watched this year, maybe not the most hyped, is an improvement in drops. Like the Basic run on this Kahhori's quest rn? After the first run through the drops are actually poop. I mean for the Energy. You can better drops elsewhere for that same amount of Energy. I did the first run and closed that mission, which is abnormal because quests usually appeal to me. Like the WB event you pointed out or Cosmic Core, the Gold Event Chest in particular has discount drops (compare prices to District shop). But? They improved several in game drops where there had been pretty much junk is now some worthwhile stuff. Well you know where those Update charts are. The other and I know there are still problems and I trip on them too but they did a lot of work to improve their server stability this year. They did, give credit where it is due. I don't like coding and scripting. I think it's as exhausting as doing long calculus in a school is. I'm sure someone there was clacking away until their wrist and eyeballs were sore to buff all that in such a short period of time. On that when reporting this stuff give them your system specs (including what version of Android is on your device), tell them where in the game the crash happened and if you know how the error reports. The working hand there can't work with a bug report that goes something like "Game crashed! I'm so mad a broke my phone. Again! Netmarble are fascists! 🖕" Yeah, programmers can't make use of that. They "should" have a pinned and highlighted set of directions on their bug report forum and note it is not for complaints (that would be General). I'm somewhat puzzled that they don't and the public comments are open tbh. * Hey players. So I lost my two most jacked T3's in Giant Boss today in a matter of seconds. I lost them because my teammate had Dark Phoenix, not reinforced, and got mind controlled then wiped me out and our other team mate. I have Captain Marvel on standby so she survived but our entire play rating was decimated. And I always boost our team coming in. When mind controlled please switch your character. Especially if you are playing with Dark Phoenix, it's always that one or someone using a God Mode Menu Mod cheat. Your screen will "flash purple" when you're mind controlled. Else we are losing out on our mutual reward haul. Back to it. It's a fun game. And franchise driven so if people like comic characters the art in this one is lovely and very authentic. As a company they have had some problems over the past year but I personally think that's systematic, not internal. The easy get is watch what Disney does. Disney scaled back their release schedule for 2024. And Disney does these things because they know much more than others about the markets. You can tell the weather so to speak by when Disney expects to fill seats in theaters or not so to speak. But it is a good game and in my return analysis it is actually a bit more cumbersome. I know that's hard for vet players with stacked accounts to hear but it's like childhood POV. Everyone wishes the world was "like it was when they were a child" and in turn "the world is worse by proxy". But that is simply because our body chemistry inclines to experience higher levels of joy thus the world itself seems wonderful as opposed to when we age and our bodies aren't as good as producing the happy chemicals. In which case a lot of grown ups try and supplement of course. But rose tinted glasses and all. Because in reality the world wasn't all that different. Things had different and the discourse was different but the same problems still existed. And if you are elderly say and saying the world was better when you were a kid? That was the Great Depression, reminder so, no. Point being I am looking at the overall. The entire demographic of this game and what I see are things that would be more cumbersome to the majority. "Better"? That's subjective. I was miffed for example about absence of Danger Room having started with a fresh slate account. That feeling, through tinted glasses again, does not mean the game has "gone bad" nor does it mean they do not know what they're doing. More probable they had good reasons for making changes. Some are profit yes but if they do not make a specific amount of profit? They do not make the game at all anymore. They lose the franchise license and join the ranks of TMNT Legends in retirement (in the devs terms this means scrambling to find a new job in a competitive market). Any who, back to my session and then onto to my day here. Bad weather and I have the bug and am sick. Upside I have an excuse to sit around play games more. Happy holidays all and best to your and yours. And switch out your character in Giant Boss when your screen flashes purple.
this video has made me re-download the game, ive been playing on and off for 7 or so years and yet ive never stopped watching your videos, thank you for all you do for the community and hope you have a safe and happy Christmas period
Swords were a great concept, but the grind is beyond frustrating. I've spent hundreds of millions in gold and cant get more than 4 same color gems on any sword. When it makes card crafting seem reasonable, something is wrong.
The only things that prevented me from quitting the game this long are the character animations and bad characters getting reworks consistently (although some of them miss the mark, but some of them actually turn out to be great, or at the very least, serviceable). Gotta admit that this year has been very dry compared to previous years, but it still had a good amount of content to offer. Gotg 3 was my favorite update simply because i love the characters and i found a goal to work towards patiently and determinedly. Across the Spiderverse update was very good too. Asgard update, while not my personal favorite, had a good amount of changes to offer, reworks for underused characters, timeline survival change etc. Hope the game becomes the game that we fell in love once again in 2024 with amazing reworks, great content changes and new game modes.
The previews were the most incredible things this year. The community a very close second. I love the game... But I really suck at it lol. Well at least world boss legend... Still have no tier 4 characters... But I'll get there eventually. And lucky I don't care about who the most meta character is, since my first tier 4 must be Storm (it's a rule). Thanks Alex for your insights, you're the best
This game deserves so much praise! Its honestly still, after so many years, one of the best mobile games available imho. The improvements they make and the updates they release come at a unbelievable pace for a game this old. I play these days on a 100% FTP account and I am able to play in a way that feels so fun trying to reach for the meta without spending any money. I find that you can make a very competitive account and have tons of fun with so few restrictions without paying. They DO listen to community feedback a TON compared with most other mobile experiences. The graphics still out class most current competition which is absolutely crazy XD. The game is SO generous to new accounts and gives you everything you need to progress through all the content in the game. The rating on google play should be way higher than it is!
Aw Alex lol awesome video as always. Heres to 2024 and mff continuing to grow both the game and community 🎉❤ man thing let's goooo 🎉he has helped me in owb. I prefer owb over TL by far.
I have her transcended since 20 minutes ago... Have a mighty greed and a rage in the inventory, but haven't figured out when to give her yet tbh. Hela's uniform is actually Waaaaaaay better than the Asgardian one. Literally stood still in story mode and cleared the whole board with 3 skills, and not the t3😮. Considering buying the Nebula one too, but it's lacking s. New skin and a swap from electric to flame ability, but nothing too crazy apart from waaaay more hits on her skills. Waiting on a review before making a choice.
Kahhori is a obelisk toon for now. We might find a niche use in ac. Nebula is an abx meta. Check ftp adventures. She doesn't give you a ton of better scores but still
This was a most depressing top10 list. Most of the good stuff you mention could, let’s face it, rather be considered as a waste of resources, that could otherwise be directed in bettering the vast majority of gamemodes that need it desperately. Everything that has been done this year was in futile attempts to make the game accommodate the T4s, an introduction that the game as a whole was not ready for. The only gamemode that could mitigate this powercreep and give meaning to a 260 camps-deep roster is Shadowland. And they completely ignored the actual mode. And they probably won’t update it now. And you put the meaningless tinkering they did to it as the… second best thing that happened this year….
You are right, but then again we must keep moving forward and the t4 materials or lack thereof is another problem. The changes to shadowland were good but it sucks how they didn't introduce a new arena with new bosses along with their latest uniforms.
@@vinny7114 I hear you. But. New stages and bosses with updated uniforms, while desirable, are NOT the point of Shadowland. Shadowland is not WBL or GBR. Shadowland is a metric of a champ’s prowess in a certain timestamp in the game and his/hers classification in one’s specific account. Who is the better champ; Ulik or Whiplash? Hulkling or Fandral? When one has reason to climb Shadowland, these questions: 1. Matter 2. Do not require all of the champs to be T4 and OP 3. Are so much fun to tackle. The developers do not provide with reasons (rewards) for one to climb. And even players that used to enjoy the mode in the past, have developed their accounts by now to such a degree, where reaching stage 250 is a piece of cake and does not require any strategy. Shadowland is THE BASIS of what characterizes MFF as a Superhero game. And it is severely outdated, as regards stage design and rewards. Content creators need to push for Shadowland reworks. They NEED to see that the game will die without it. 260 champs. 780 champs, if you count the uniforms (wink-wink).
this update really sucks... but could this Uatu mind his own business?? you ruined Nebula by turning her into a horrible Yondula, even worse you even ruined my Beloved Hela 😥😢 this below is the real Hela... my love 😍 🥰
ya, here me out he's on vacation and it's just a normal uni and not seasonal, so you can buy that uni anytime and the discount will come again along with mid-month. so just be patient and you can just look for other content creator for uni review
something that’s really underrated is character models and skill animations. this game is very clean for a mobile game.
I agree, love animations on this game!
Yes, it is good, but it is not something revolutionary for the current era. There are many games that surpass it in visual quality in the field of phone games.
MFF character models are, by far, the best among Marvel, mobile games. Others look too stylized, shiny, blocky, or just targeted to a younger audience.

I came in around X-Force this year and hadn't been since shortly after No Way Home. I've been going through some things, films and music as well and seeing if my critique has changed since then. You clearly enjoyed the Sneak Peeks a lot. I do think they upped their cinematic production game. I point to the first cut screen in The Marvels quest. I can see classes have been taken with that because I can see the same type of pans and transitions that are used on a film set represented there. That was a nice treat imo.

Best part about mff is you alex wo you this game would be so dry for me at least so thank you brudda
Abx/abl was spot on. I wish i had the ability to know rotations like a bunch of my alliance members do.
6:50 eyyyy, where did ant man came from !!
Swords were a great concept, but the grind is beyond frustrating. I've spent hundreds of millions in gold and cant get more than 4 same color gems on any sword. When it makes card crafting seem reasonable, something is wrong.
The formula is to have a major thing to keep us busy through years, and limiting whales to do the speedrun build.
The only things that prevented me from quitting the game this long are the character animations and bad characters getting reworks consistently (although some of them miss the mark, but some of them actually turn out to be great, or at the very least, serviceable).
