The worst thing about MvCI"s story mode is that the voice acting sounds so off. Which is weird because they used good voice actors for this game. The direction was just so off.
@AT Productions Same. But Kingdom Hearts suffered the same fate. The voice acting was pretty good in 2, Birth By Sleep (minus Terra) and even Dream Drop Distance (though Sora sounds weird because Haley Joel Osment is trying to do KH1 Sora when he was almost 30.) 3 was when everyone except Sora, Ventus and Roxas sounded so off.
*Fun Fact* : The only reason Laura Bailey didn’t do both Chun-Li & Black Widow is because Marvel called dibs on her & didn’t allow actors to voice characters across sides (I think Laura mentioned on Twitter that she was surprised that she wasn’t doing both when she came in to record). So if Asura or Gill actually made it in, they would have been recast since Liam O’Brien was already Doctor Strange.
DuelaDent -52- I honestly have no idea. These actors are clearly talented enough to do multiple characters, Laura especially. Even Laura said she’s more than down to return as Chun-Li in future games, so I would imagine that she’ll return in SFVI. And I can’t even begin to fathom the idea of Liam not voicing Gill or *especially* Asura.
The story mode feels like it’s written by someone on fanfiction starting their story with, “Don’t flame- this is my first story.” Jesus Christ this dialogue is bad.
I dont expect to have a great story, only.morons wish for great story in fighting games, only NRS can have a good story and its still cheesy, though i expect capcom to have better art than this
Watersports It’s not even the plot line- the thing was gonna be a mess from the beginning with the crossover idea. It’s how it feels like the characters aren’t themselves. I expected good writing for Rocket, Iron Man, maybe Thor and Dante too. But it’s so bad it’s like they hired literally the worst people and gave them 5 weeks to come up with a story and dialogue. Like I’ve seen high schoolers on fanfiction write characters better than this.
24:57 Those 50+ slots in the dev menu were actually slots for “story mode scenes.” The devmenu was all written in Japanese, and so Fchamp assumed those slots were for playable characters without reading. Eventhubs believed him and further spread the misinformation. I hope that clears up some things. Nice video. Keep up the good work, Max.
I gotta get this bumped up so Max can take notice. The hype was real back in the day, so this actually helps bandage the old wound of not actually getting 60 characters
I actually looked it up. The game was given Street Fighter DLC-levels of budget, so they had to bring back and tweak some UMvC3 models to make them fit in the art style. Kinda wonder if Chris was one of them.
@@BROXBasherSo if the budget was so small, why not just make an update to UMVC that replaced xfactor with the infinity stones and just add new MCU and capcom characters and called it UMVCI?
@@Next-xm2dh He's clearly a master of stealth, as well shows his usual hobby of running at ridiculous speeds in open areas swinging a large blade about.
i just realized just about nobody has facial motion for their eyes in the in-game cutscenes. liek their eyebrows dont move at all and the refuse to move their eyeballs. i dont think i say anybody look around with their eyes, they HAVE to turn their head to see something. its so damn weird to notice it now.
That's what it is! There was just something so awkward about these cutscenes and I couldn't put my finger on it. Well, that and the stilted character models, the voice acting, the direction, the generic trailer music, the awkward scripting and delivery, the lacking of legacy characters....
@@herosshade2247 well it gives off an awkward action figure feel. i first noticed it with Cap. i thought something seemed off, then i realized his mask never animates so he cant move is eyebrows, THEN i realized his eyes never move, *THEN* i realized everybody seems to have this going on. Chris was another stand out that made me realize this.
If you've ever played Sonic 06, you'll see this exact issue of "character's eyes cant move so just rapidly jerk their head around" movement, even has that same shitty mocap animation with them flailing their arms around.
I love how the title cards are like "88 days since the convergence." Damn...you'd think maybe that'd be the slightest bit more effective if we...oh I don't know... SAW THE CONVERGENCE AT ALL?!?!
They could’ve done something like Secret Wars with dimensions and universes literally colliding. Or Doctor Strange finding the Capcom Universe when Ultron and Sigma start combining. Or the Ultron hive mind jumping into different universes to 1-up the Avengers. Or Dormammu warning Strange as a weird villains-and-heroes-unite. Or Rocket and the Guardians finding an anomaly. Or Thor and Heimdall conversing over Heimdall’s visions. Or Stark being his genius-self monitoring villains like Ultron. Like this takes minimal investment from the writer’s department. And you can easily reuse assets for things in some of these examples like the Chaos Realm for Dormammu warning Strange. I just can’t forgive how lazy this is...
I feel like there are some bits of dialogue where the lines aren't actually terrible (not great, but not bruh), but the performance lets it down. (Take the "for you, Rocket, anything," bit--as a line in a script, there's nothing really horrendous about it, but then it actually gets delivered and yeezus how did that come out so badly?)
12:44 It was at this point I realized who wrote the script for this game: Marvel writers with no knowledge of Capcom characters. Dante would *never* toss some random Racoon his babies Ebony and Ivory. He’d probably say “Hell no Trash Panda! The ladies stay with me.” and then proceed to shoot down several more drones like a boss
acedekk Right! To just quickly TL;DR the lore reason, his guns were built for him by a master gunsmith who was also a close friend of his. She designed Ebony and Ivory to never run out of ammo and to never break, which is super impressive! And yes, Dante did give Vergil *one* of his pistols so they could kill Arkham at the end of DMC 3. Besides that, he is very protective of his babies!
If anything Dante and Rocket should just butt heads with each other constantly. Maybe have a scene where Dante drops them somehow and Rocket sneakily takes em so he can try em out. Then Dante snatches them back, conflict is way more interesting than buddy-buddy crap.
Spencer's first line in the game is just him screaming while being swung around by Ultron Sigma, and then he barely says anything at all. Why is he here again?
Well by definition he is literally a heathen god... and what do you mean by "so called" Christian knights? Christianity and knighthood were pretty intertwined.
@@ProfessorShnacktime if you’re supporting Christianity I agree. There’s clear reasons why pagan belief was smashed, but I’m not sure that’s how Jesus would do it. On second thought, I am sure, Jesus would not smash to show people the truth.
I think someone else put it best, everyone sounds like they were written by someone who never wrote a cross-over before. Hello Dante from Devil May Cry. Oh hey Captain America from Marvel's Captain America, have you seen Chris Redfield from Resident Evil?
Captain America: "Ah Dante. *The* Dante, from Devil May Cry. The videogame series! How are you? Dante: Hello Mr. Captain of America aka The First Avenger, I'm doing well thanks! *Awkward high five*
I actually feel the problems the opposite and would've thought it cool to see the characters get to know each other, but they seemed to have fast forward the story to a point where both the Marvel and Capcom cast are entirely knowledgeable of each other.
@@Hi_Just_Fred Iron Man: oh my god is that Chun Li? The Chun Li? The world’s strongest woman in capcom’s most popular fighting game street fighter that’s been around since 1990? Ryu: you got that right Iron Man, The Armored Avenger aka Tony Stark of the Marvel super hero team The Avengers
@@JoseBronxRican. It's most likely a Resident Evil situation: Fit for the first game or two, but after the series got bigger, the name just kind of stuck.
@Strider Xanthos Yes. Dr. Cain created the Reploids by referring to X's design, and the biblical reference goes to show that in a way, Dr. Cain killed his home town Abel City due to all the damages caused by the Mavericks and Sigma, the first Reploid he created. If I'm right, the anime "The Day of Sigma" (and the game Maverick Hunter X) is the first time the city is ever referenced as Abel City, so it is a relatively recent addition to the lore. The city is pretty much ground zero of Sigma-virus created Mavericks, exactly because the Hunters operate there. (I'm a bit too intense about the lore :P)
@@BoosterGoose It's also a lesser known fact, but Dr. Cain is not a robot scientist. He is an archeologist. He basically fumbled his way into creating Reploids based off X's design.
Or in the original animated series, and that show was basically made to be a toy ad. But in all fairness, the OG Transformers did actually have some very solid writing, aiding by its great voice cast. This game… not so much
If I remember correctly, the guy voicing Iron Man here also voice Iron Man in the "Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes" cartoon series in the years leading up to Disney's purchase of Marvel.
he was fantastic, it really sucks that they just Nolan North for that new Avengers game instead he is really bad. He is also just doing his Deadpool voice for Ironman which is really jarring let alone that he is to much of a goofball and over the top which again makes Ironman sound more like Deadpool.
Alan Joestar well I wondered if they were looking for a iron man voice actor. Hell! They could’ve gotten the one from Avengers earths mightiest heroes.
And that's what's so ironic. Like Max said, had this come out 6-7 months later between Infinity War & Endgame and at around the same time Captain Marvel was coming out, this game would have been much more relevant. And maybe those 6-7 months would've given them a little more time to add on some more polish to the game.
@@Unknownigen Not to mention the staggering amount of bitching and knaiving from Disney side. Is like they wanted to make an excuse to stop doing MvC games. I don't really understand it. It's a beloved 25 year old franchise that surely has made fans from both sides be interested in one another, why shit on the franchise that has given one of the best selling fighting games of all time?
Daniel Martinez Gonzalez Daniel Martinez Gonzalez it especially pissed me off how Marvel was basically breathing down the devs necks even back in the MVC3 days. If I recall, they had to fight to use Shuma Gorath, Rocket Raccoon etc. because Marvel wasn’t using them or something which is still stupid to be against.
@@carlbloke8797 Yep. Marvel wasn't planning to use/didn't have the rights to some characters (Capcom wanted to add Juggernaut to MvC3, but Marvel said no cuz he was owned by Fox at the time, and they didn't wanna promote their competition). At least that problem wouldn't exist now, given that Marvel owns all their properties again
Money. They did it mainly for clout without trying to put in the effort to EARN the clout. Most of the games Marvel worked on and licensed their characters to before MvC:I were mobile games. They just commissioned it and hoped for the best and that’s why we got Hershey’s gameplay in a shit package.
This story feels like a bunch of Japanese writers trying to imitate an MCU movie. Why not have Marvel comic book writers write the plot for this if they're going for Avengers plus Capcom characters?
@Strider Xanthos Really? The awkward pauses, grunting, and characters nodding at each other is a common problem in games with Japanese writers (mostly cause it doesn't translate well to English without feeling off) The emphasis on Marvel might have been to ride the hype of the MCU, hence the infinity stones EDIT: 45:00 Max explains it
I really feel like it would have been more interesting if the sigma virus infected Iron Mans suit (or even Jarvis) instead of Thor. Imagine how much more sense that would make as the Sigma Virus tends to infect robots/AI and with Tony still stuck in the suit it would have made the fight more dramatic.
The 2 parts I liked was Ultimate Armor X getting the final attack on the final boss because (this was before Mega Man 11 and the revitalization of Mega Man) it was one of the coolest things that has happened for a Mega Man character so far and Dante being worthy of the soul stone because I thought it was a pretty cool way to incorporate the lore of DMC and Marvel.
"I think when he's speaking, Mega Man X's voice sounds quite good. But in combat? He sounds a bit too much like Dan." "But in combat?" So he doesn't sound like X in the part of the game most people are going to play? Damn.
I'm still in disbelief that they bring back X's voice actor from Maverick Hunter X and X8. He became the best X in the series by far and did a great job at characterizing him. Hell, he is even in the mobile game. The direction in voice acting in this game just doesn't make any sense.
They could not since Mark Gatha (X from X8, Command Mission and Maverick Hunter X) is retired and is a Vancouver VA, while this game was recorded on California (that's the same reason why Zero was recast from Lucas Gilberston to Johnny Yong Bosch)
I'm baffled at times with Capcom. OBVIOUSLY they care SO MUCH about Arthur (and Ghost and Goblins) that he gets representation for mvc3/umvc3 and even mvci. If he had that much clout in terms of company history, I don't understand why they wouldn't heavily consider getting a GnG remake in order.
@@Dzzy123 you mean a token old character so they can go: "look! We still remember our old characters!" Personally I'd be down if they remake gng in like the RE Engine as a side scroller or something.
@@ZRovas117 They did a reimagining of GnG during the PS2 era. I forget what the series was called. I'd like Capcom to make a new Power Stone. They have hinted at it in the past, and I was surprised that they didn't add a Power Stone character to MvCI when the plot had to do with acquiring stones.
I loved the idea of being able to play Ultron Sigma(and overpowered version) by choosing ultron and sigma and choosing an extra option to fuse them. I know that's not how they would do it even if they did but making the boss actually playable, and removing your assist in return would be interesting as a casual player
I remember I was genuinely excited to see Jedah--one of my favorite Darkstalkers and all time Capcom characters--be a part of the MvCI roster. Then I also remembered Capcom resurrected him in MvCI.
23:57 to add onto this, he also plays Nero in DMC and Ichigo Kurosaki in Bleach, two more scream heavy characters that he does an absolutely fantastic job in
For me personally MVCI is just... So much wasted potential. The gameplay is amazing. The idea to unite Ultron and Sigma is genius! And yet here we are... Still (not anymore) waiting for Simon Blackquill...
@laz kar I think it was leaked a long time ago that Simon Blackquill was supposed to be a dlc character MVCI is pretty much dead now, and it's sad. I imagine Simon would play like a mix of swordplay and UMVC3 Phoenix Wright evidence/modes shenanigans with Taka thrown into his moveset Damn, that's a shame we won't get Simon... Edit: Oh, and imagine stunning Thanos or Dormammu with Simon's trademark "SILENCE!"...
@HorizonCrosser 128 Well, if you notice, the Marvel roster of the first games are almost everyone tv show characters, that's why it all started with X-men.
@@Protosilver97 Simon Blackquill is a recurring prosecutor from Ace Attorney: Dual Destinies. He's convicted for murder, yet he still prosecutes DD cases. Has a pet falcon called Taka. Starts up chained, but has a habit of breaking those during trials which scares living shit out of everyone (most of all, Judge). Smart, cunning, but honourable. A little cocky. Has a neat move when he spits Taka's feathers into his opponents and slicing them in half with iaijutsu, using, ahem... Invisible katana...
Simon can actually beat the shit out of someone though i think that if another character from phoenix wright was chosen aside from phoenix it would be miles, he's just too popular
The wasted potential. The ugly as sin designs, the Marvel side just being every character without any unique or cool powers, just super strength and guns, the awful "must push brand recognition" name dropping dialogue, bringing back characters like Arthur and Spencer(my arm is my wife, so many jokes lol) while they dropped some of the main characters people love. It's actually incredible this was released like this. Whoever is in charge of what characters are allowed to be used in games at Marvel needs to be fired, they consistently choose all the most boring generic characters, even to this day, look at the Avengers game, the first DLC is the only Young Avenger without powers... Like, what?
The character designs were ok, but the lighting engine and semi-realism used in Infinite doesn't do any of the cast any favors (i.e. why Dante looks like he's on day 3 of a sleepless cocaine binge.)
So in terms of voices in this game: - I think Ultrons voice is pretty good. He kinda does the CRUSH KILL DESTROY thing that you'd think evil robots would do - Jedah has a really good voice but I think him trying to do the high pitched laugh doesn't work too much - Dante sounds worse than he does in this game. Its oddly closer to DMC3 Dante but it makes him kinda obnoxious. Not to mention he's top tier so you learn to hate hearing him - Chun-Li's voice isn't great and thats odd considering Ashley Burch is pretty good at what she says - Thanos has a real good voice. Sounds exactly what an evil space overlord would sound - Hearing Spencer makes me think he's gonna talk about Butt Stallion
The worst voice, in terms of gameplay, is Monster Hunter. She sounds like she's throwing up whenever you hit her. And unfortunately, everyone likes using her, so that's most of what you hear.
Never got why they had to put the Capcom characters as if they were from the same "dimension", with Marvel it makes sense but almost everyone from Capcom side is from a different place
9:55 that‘s because they chose Nolan North to voice Iron Man in the new Avengers game, which is bad because he was usually voicing Deadpool and funny enough, he also voiced Rocket Racoon in this game.
16:53 THAT. That right there is the problem with these cutscenes. Cap gets Chris's attention, he turns to look, and there's, like, two or three seconds of Chris just *standing there* doing nothing until the robot shows up and they do the "I'll take that as a yes" gag. Every goddamn cutscene in this story is filled with these long, awkward pauses that make it feel like every character forgot their lines and missed their cues. You can practically see the stage director frantically gesturing for the robot to jump in already. The only reason I can think of that it's like this is that they had to pad it out for time, which is especially stupid since the whole thing, as Max pointed out, feels like you missed the start of it.
Max: "Universes and stages colliding is a really cool idea!" *Can't believe Playstation Allstars Battle Royale did this idea not only first but BETTER*
Sad thing is this game is what made my sister really appreciate MegaMan X. She's beaten 1, 2, and 4. As sad as this game is, it kind of has a special place in my heart.
35:07 It feels like this scene was meant to happen *before* you fight, with Thor cutting in after the fight ends. Even more ways this game feels like it was just thrown out unfinished and left to die.
I love how characters like Hawkeye and Rocket were redesigned to look like their MCU counterparts, except Thor. And you know It’s so that they could recycle everything from MVC3
9:55 this is because the voice actors for several marvel characters are reprising their roles from the show Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes. Great show that disney did dirty.
Leo 1509 Nah I’m pretty sure the ratings were decent. It was cancelled because the new heads of Marvel Animation wanted to make shows that could bank off of the success of the movies.
Leo 1509 It wasn’t cancelled because of ratings. It was cancelled because they wanted a new cartoon “Avengers Assemble”, which was based more off of the MCU instead of the comics like EMH was
@@leojs5673 Yes and I'm sure that's totally the case with countless other Marvel shows that were cancelled way too soon. Fact is if it doesn't fit the mold a company wants to fill it gets dumped regardless of "ratings" and another thing, companies are supposed to pay for ads so the show can actually have an audience. Nobody will watch something they have no idea even exists!
I have to rant about this. Part of the reason why the game looks so bad is because they tried to make the characters look like they belonged in a live action movie or something, right? So why the hell is Arthur still a short cartoon character? Why is he part of the game's story? He is the most out of place character in this line up but he's still here! We've even had a normal human sized version Arthur back in Namco x Capcom, so there's precedence for him to look like a normal human being. There is... so much that upsets me about this game from a design standpoint and I think this is one of the more baffling examples of it.
This game was made by capcom. The company that put out games like monster hunter world, Resident evil 2 remake. This is a game from a AAA company. Just...lordy
@@staticshock4239 Who knows. All I know is this is not a creative driven product. Power Rangers battle for the grid looks better than this. It's so ugly and awkward.
This was the time when Capcom didn't know what the hell they were doing with their properties anymore. MegaMan was dead in año iterations, Tekken was doing bad ever since tag, Residente Evil was going downhill without brakes and the only doing kind of good was Monster Hunter Generations wich was a 3ds Game. World and RE7 was the start of them getting their shit together.
Cable Except you can find out basically the whole story- Matt McMuscles did a Wha Happun on it (Where Max actually showed up) that explains that this game was “Cheap as shit” and Marvel was an absolute nightmare to work with.
If I’m not mistaken, I think capcom had to check in with marvel every time they did something. Marvel might’ve tried to intentionally kill the franchise themselves and/or just promote their own stuff. Also, trusting the company that has 0 fighting game experience to check the company that’s made fighting games for years? Makes total sense 🙄
they wanted to make sure we knew the characters names lol, every sentence is "Oh Hey Dante, Hey Rocket, Wassup Captain America, Not much Thor" like Jeeeeez
Since this game had "infinite" in the title I was convinced it would eventually have a almost infinite amount of characters. Only thing infinite about this game was the disappointment. Especially when you've paid $80 for it 🤦♂️
@@gokusondbz and that's completely fine! enjoy it if you want, but you cant ignore how Marvel wanted top billing when it's came to the roster (both base and DLC)and story mode.
You know I feel like an idea if they were actually going to add the X-Men into this story, and would only have certain characters from them would be this: Ultron Sigma was able to get control of the Sentinels to reprogram and take care of the threats by making the bots carriers of the virus, thus doubling as a threat to the X-Men and a plan to infect them and the other universes of the Capcom lore. So since Ultron Sigma has the Reality Stone and Space Stone, he could send them to other universes to infect and then bring them back to him as servants so we could have other characters. Maybe that's just crackpot, but it would definitely give a reason to bring in the X-Men and other Capcom characters as either potential cameos or characters to use... But instead we got this dissapointment. Sigh...
These cutscenes have the same amount of tension as that one scene in Black Dynamite where the mic bumps his head and he can’t stop looking away from it while continuing the scene
9:10 This is what I dislike when FGC people talk about MvC They want the same 30 characters in every game because of nostalgia or whatever, but the weird and interesting characters that represent the history of both companies can't get in because they're not "badass" or whatever Arthur deserves to be in MvC as much as Dante or Megaman
The problem is that for some folks, characters like Arthur arguably don't belong in a roster like this. I agree that Arthur is deserving to be in a crossover like this especially compared to characters like Captain Commando who had one game and kinda failed as a mascot to Capcom. But when it comes to a roster like MvC that had so many enjoyable characters that cutting most of them out feels wrong. That's why Smash Bros tends to have over 80% of their characters come back from the previous game as well as fans being butthurt about those cuts. Once again, I think Arthur belongs and Max is just not a fan of him which I get. Personally, as long as we get a Ghost n Goblins rep in a game like this, I'd be fine.

Well, that and the stilted character models, the voice acting, the direction, the generic trailer music, the awkward scripting and delivery, the lacking of legacy characters....
@@herosshade2247 well it gives off an awkward action figure feel. i first noticed it with Cap. i thought something seemed off, then i realized his mask never animates so he cant move is eyebrows, THEN i realized his eyes never move, *THEN* i realized everybody seems to have this going on. Chris was another stand out that made me realize this.
You can actually see a tiny bit of motion in Chris’ eyes at 31:09.
Dante's face. That is all.
If you've ever played Sonic 06, you'll see this exact issue of "character's eyes cant move so just rapidly jerk their head around" movement, even has that same shitty mocap animation with them flailing their arms around.
I love how the title cards are like "88 days since the convergence."
Damn...you'd think maybe that'd be the slightest bit more effective if we...oh I don't know...

@@StriderVM When did they show?
@@HoldenD.Snutts They didn't. Thats why I said its an utter failure to show not tell.
They could’ve done something like Secret Wars with dimensions and universes literally colliding. Or Doctor Strange finding the Capcom Universe when Ultron and Sigma start combining. Or the Ultron hive mind jumping into different universes to 1-up the Avengers. Or Dormammu warning Strange as a weird villains-and-heroes-unite. Or Rocket and the Guardians finding an anomaly. Or Thor and Heimdall conversing over Heimdall’s visions. Or Stark being his genius-self monitoring villains like Ultron.
Like this takes minimal investment from the writer’s department. And you can easily reuse assets for things in some of these examples like the Chaos Realm for Dormammu warning Strange.
I just can’t forgive how lazy this is...

12:44 It was at this point I realized who wrote the script for this game: Marvel writers with no knowledge of Capcom characters. Dante would *never* toss some random Racoon his babies Ebony and Ivory. He’d probably say “Hell no Trash Panda! The ladies stay with me.” and then proceed to shoot down several more drones like a boss
I havent played DMC but from what I heard, Dante never gives his guns to ANYONE and the only time he did was to his brother right?
acedekk Right! To just quickly TL;DR the lore reason, his guns were built for him by a master gunsmith who was also a close friend of his. She designed Ebony and Ivory to never run out of ammo and to never break, which is super impressive!
And yes, Dante did give Vergil *one* of his pistols so they could kill Arkham at the end of DMC 3. Besides that, he is very protective of his babies!
I feel like morrigan was also acting out of character
Next probably because she was also written by people with no true understanding of her character
If anything Dante and Rocket should just butt heads with each other constantly. Maybe have a scene where Dante drops them somehow and Rocket sneakily takes em so he can try em out. Then Dante snatches them back, conflict is way more interesting than buddy-buddy crap.
Still don’t understand why Vergil isn’t in the game. The guy is always in “I need more power!” trip and he misses the power stones adventure.
Not just vergil, whole MVCU3 cast
Is because he cheap.
Vergil would truly fit in the quest to get the Infinity Stones.
He's dante's twin brother and would probably have the same face as him in this game, THANK GOD HE'S NOT IN
Do you REALLY want Dante's twin brother? Dante is butt ugly in this game and you want Vergil?
Spencer's first line in the game is just him screaming while being swung around by Ultron Sigma, and then he barely says anything at all. Why is he here again?
Padding
Didn't a popular UMVC 3 player asked the developers to include him.
Because they thought they could sell just a few units more of that Bionic Commando game. I wouldn't be surprised if that was the case.
Cause he's a popular function
The other characters should have called him "Combofiend's character" instead of Spencer.

Opinions on Ultron Sigma?
@Strider Xanthos It's a blatant biblical reference, Cain & Abel.
@Strider Xanthos Yes. Dr. Cain created the Reploids by referring to X's design, and the biblical reference goes to show that in a way, Dr. Cain killed his home town Abel City due to all the damages caused by the Mavericks and Sigma, the first Reploid he created. If I'm right, the anime "The Day of Sigma" (and the game Maverick Hunter X) is the first time the city is ever referenced as Abel City, so it is a relatively recent addition to the lore. The city is pretty much ground zero of Sigma-virus created Mavericks, exactly because the Hunters operate there. (I'm a bit too intense about the lore :P)
@@BoosterGoose It's also a lesser known fact, but Dr. Cain is not a robot scientist. He is an archeologist.
He basically fumbled his way into creating Reploids based off X's design.

Or in the original animated series, and that show was basically made to be a toy ad.
But in all fairness, the OG Transformers did actually have some very solid writing, aiding by its great voice cast. This game… not so much
If I remember correctly, the guy voicing Iron Man here also voice Iron Man in the "Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes" cartoon series in the years leading up to Disney's purchase of Marvel.
Your right. but at the same time he sounds different. It must be a different voice actor.
he was fantastic, it really sucks that they just Nolan North for that new Avengers game instead he is really bad. He is also just doing his Deadpool voice for Ironman which is really jarring let alone that he is to much of a goofball and over the top which again makes Ironman sound more like Deadpool.

And that's what's so ironic. Like Max said, had this come out 6-7 months later between Infinity War & Endgame and at around the same time Captain Marvel was coming out, this game would have been much more relevant. And maybe those 6-7 months would've given them a little more time to add on some more polish to the game.
@@Unknownigen Not to mention the staggering amount of bitching and knaiving from Disney side. Is like they wanted to make an excuse to stop doing MvC games.

Daniel Martinez Gonzalez Daniel Martinez Gonzalez it especially pissed me off how Marvel was basically breathing down the devs necks even back in the MVC3 days. If I recall, they had to fight to use Shuma Gorath, Rocket Raccoon etc. because Marvel wasn’t using them or something which is still stupid to be against.
@@carlbloke8797 Yep. Marvel wasn't planning to use/didn't have the rights to some characters (Capcom wanted to add Juggernaut to MvC3, but Marvel said no cuz he was owned by Fox at the time, and they didn't wanna promote their competition). At least that problem wouldn't exist now, given that Marvel owns all their properties again
Money. They did it mainly for clout without trying to put in the effort to EARN the clout. Most of the games Marvel worked on and licensed their characters to before MvC:I were mobile games. They just commissioned it and hoped for the best and that’s why we got Hershey’s gameplay in a shit package.
"Iron Man looks like a homeless guy" How was that not on the back of the box?
This story feels like a bunch of Japanese writers trying to imitate an MCU movie. Why not have Marvel comic book writers write the plot for this if they're going for Avengers plus Capcom characters?
@Strider Xanthos Really? The awkward pauses, grunting, and characters nodding at each other is a common problem in games with Japanese writers (mostly cause it doesn't translate well to English without feeling off)
The emphasis on Marvel might have been to ride the hype of the MCU, hence the infinity stones
EDIT: 45:00 Max explains it
Everyone looks like they're 3D modeled by Rob Liefeld after he just found out how to do it.

The 2 parts I liked was Ultimate Armor X getting the final attack on the final boss because (this was before Mega Man 11 and the revitalization of Mega Man) it was one of the coolest things that has happened for a Mega Man character so far and Dante being worthy of the soul stone because I thought it was a pretty cool way to incorporate the lore of DMC and Marvel.
"I think when he's speaking, Mega Man X's voice sounds quite good. But in combat? He sounds a bit too much like Dan."
"But in combat?"
So he doesn't sound like X in the part of the game most people are going to play? Damn.
I think he sounds awful everytime he speaks ( i miss mark gatha as X.... ), this voice actor does a way better job at teppen though
I'm still in disbelief that they bring back X's voice actor from Maverick Hunter X and X8. He became the best X in the series by far and did a great job at characterizing him. Hell, he is even in the mobile game. The direction in voice acting in this game just doesn't make any sense.

Arthur is a huge piece of Capcom history. He deserves to be in every MvC game.
The wasted potential. The ugly as sin designs, the Marvel side just being every character without any unique or cool powers, just super strength and guns, the awful "must push brand recognition" name dropping dialogue, bringing back characters like Arthur and Spencer(my arm is my wife, so many jokes lol) while they dropped some of the main characters people love. It's actually incredible this was released like this. Whoever is in charge of what characters are allowed to be used in games at Marvel needs to be fired, they consistently choose all the most boring generic characters, even to this day, look at the Avengers game, the first DLC is the only Young Avenger without powers... Like, what?
I'm still not sure why they went with Kate and not Clint.
Put some respect on Kate!!!! She whooped old man wolverine. Go sit down and read something
It’s cause of her connection with Clint I’m fairly certain Black Panther would have been the og first DLC until Chadwick Boseman’s tragic death so..
The character designs were ok, but the lighting engine and semi-realism used in Infinite doesn't do any of the cast any favors (i.e. why Dante looks like he's on day 3 of a sleepless cocaine binge.)
"It's also my wife and I'm severely depressed,
HELP ME."
So in terms of voices in this game:
- I think Ultrons voice is pretty good. He kinda does the CRUSH KILL DESTROY thing that you'd think evil robots would do
- Jedah has a really good voice but I think him trying to do the high pitched laugh doesn't work too much
- Dante sounds worse than he does in this game. Its oddly closer to DMC3 Dante but it makes him kinda obnoxious. Not to mention he's top tier so you learn to hate hearing him
- Chun-Li's voice isn't great and thats odd considering Ashley Burch is pretty good at what she says
- Thanos has a real good voice. Sounds exactly what an evil space overlord would sound
- Hearing Spencer makes me think he's gonna talk about Butt Stallion

THAT. That right there is the problem with these cutscenes. Cap gets Chris's attention, he turns to look, and there's, like, two or three seconds of Chris just *standing there* doing nothing until the robot shows up and they do the "I'll take that as a yes" gag. Every goddamn cutscene in this story is filled with these long, awkward pauses that make it feel like every character forgot their lines and missed their cues. You can practically see the stage director frantically gesturing for the robot to jump in already. The only reason I can think of that it's like this is that they had to pad it out for time, which is especially stupid since the whole thing, as Max pointed out, feels like you missed the start of it.

I still can't believe what was allowed to happen with this game. An absolute travesty!
I have to rant about this.
Part of the reason why the game looks so bad is because they tried to make the characters look like they belonged in a live action movie or something, right? So why the hell is Arthur still a short cartoon character? Why is he part of the game's story? He is the most out of place character in this line up but he's still here! We've even had a normal human sized version Arthur back in Namco x Capcom, so there's precedence for him to look like a normal human being. There is... so much that upsets me about this game from a design standpoint and I think this is one of the more baffling examples of it.

Max: does 50 hit combo
"I believe in my Kingdom of Hearts..."
Tread carefully Max... 😂
I love how whenever dante is brought into a game they usually use the dmc3 version like the dmc 1 and 4 versions and weapons don't exist
This game was made by capcom. The company that put out games like monster hunter world, Resident evil 2 remake. This is a game from a AAA company. Just...lordy
Capcom made a lot of questionable decisions before Monster Hunter World. Though I also blame Marvel/Disney for how this game turned out.
@@staticshock4239 Who knows. All I know is this is not a creative driven product. Power Rangers battle for the grid looks better than this. It's so ugly and awkward.
This was the time when Capcom didn't know what the hell they were doing with their properties anymore. MegaMan was dead in año iterations, Tekken was doing bad ever since tag, Residente Evil was going downhill without brakes and the only doing kind of good was Monster Hunter Generations wich was a 3ds Game. World and RE7 was the start of them getting their shit together.
Cable Except you can find out basically the whole story- Matt McMuscles did a Wha Happun on it (Where Max actually showed up) that explains that this game was “Cheap as shit” and Marvel was an absolute nightmare to work with.
It just damn sucks that MVCI turned out this way
But who's more homeless: MvCI Tony Stark or Marvel Avengers Tony Stark?
I never understood that, is M.A tony broke?
"Cringe vs Cringe Infinite, Cringe Story Revisit"
When I finally finished the story mode, that was my reaction, gave me the shivers.
If I’m not mistaken, I think capcom had to check in with marvel every time they did something. Marvel might’ve tried to intentionally kill the franchise themselves and/or just promote their own stuff.
Also, trusting the company that has 0 fighting game experience to check the company that’s made fighting games for years? Makes total sense 🙄
they wanted to make sure we knew the characters names lol, every sentence is "Oh Hey Dante, Hey Rocket, Wassup Captain America, Not much Thor" like Jeeeeez
I watched live, the Twitch VOD, and now here for the editing
Since this game had "infinite" in the title I was convinced it would eventually have a almost infinite amount of characters. Only thing infinite about this game was the disappointment. Especially when you've paid $80 for it 🤦♂️
The collector’s edition infinity eggs
I Paid 200 for the Collector's Edition Personally I love the game 😁.
@@gokusondbz and that's completely fine! enjoy it if you want, but you cant ignore how Marvel wanted top billing when it's came to the roster (both base and DLC)and story mode.
You know I feel like an idea if they were actually going to add the X-Men into this story, and would only have certain characters from them would be this:
Ultron Sigma was able to get control of the Sentinels to reprogram and take care of the threats by making the bots carriers of the virus, thus doubling as a threat to the X-Men and a plan to infect them and the other universes of the Capcom lore. So since Ultron Sigma has the Reality Stone and Space Stone, he could send them to other universes to infect and then bring them back to him as servants so we could have other characters.
Maybe that's just crackpot, but it would definitely give a reason to bring in the X-Men and other Capcom characters as either potential cameos or characters to use...
But instead we got this dissapointment.
Sigh...
These cutscenes have the same amount of tension as that one scene in Black Dynamite where the mic bumps his head and he can’t stop looking away from it while continuing the scene
9:10
This is what I dislike when FGC people talk about MvC
They want the same 30 characters in every game because of nostalgia or whatever, but the weird and interesting characters that represent the history of both companies can't get in because they're not "badass" or whatever
Arthur deserves to be in MvC as much as Dante or Megaman
The problem is that for some folks, characters like Arthur arguably don't belong in a roster like this. I agree that Arthur is deserving to be in a crossover like this especially compared to characters like Captain Commando who had one game and kinda failed as a mascot to Capcom. But when it comes to a roster like MvC that had so many enjoyable characters that cutting most of them out feels wrong. That's why Smash Bros tends to have over 80% of their characters come back from the previous game as well as fans being butthurt about those cuts.
Once again, I think Arthur belongs and Max is just not a fan of him which I get. Personally, as long as we get a Ghost n Goblins rep in a game like this, I'd be fine.
The voice of Gamora in MVCI is voiced by the same actor for Hera Syndulla in STAR WARS Rebels and played Wonder Woman in Super Man Red Sun.
