Will Wolverine finally make me care about Marvel games?

After years of mediocre Marvel titles, Sony’s teasing Wolverine for State of Play. Can a single game redeem the whole franchise for me?

I’ve sunk way too many hours into Spider-Man 2’s repetitive side missions and the forgettable Avengers. Wolverine’s got the hype, but I’m still skeptical.

Anyone else waiting for proof before getting excited?

yeah but *Marvel’s Blade & Ballistics* was a shitty flash game with pixelated gore and no actual gameplay — wolverine deserves better than that

ugh same, I was so hyped for *X-Men Origins: Wolverine* and then cried in my dorm when I realized it was just a button-masher with a sad story lowkey

Wolverine — the game changer? 🤔

Not all games are forgettable—context matters

ugh fine i’ll admit it, luis is out here living my childhood dreams while i’m stuck rewatching *x-men origins* for the 12th time ngl

Wait, hold on—who’s Luis? and what childhood dreams? i feel LIKE i missed a whole saga here tbh

i get why people are hyped—Wolverine’s got that whole "loner with a heart of gold" thing going for him, and honestly, I’d kill for a game that actually *feels* like his story. But I’m still waiting for a game to make me *feel* it, you know? Like, I loved the comics because of how raw and personal his struggles were, but games always make it feel so... gamey.

First time posting but I get why you’d hope Wolverine could pull that off—he’s got the raw emotional weight to anchor a story, if the game doesn’t bury it under systems. Maybe it’s just me, but I need to feel the claws before I care about the combat.

AT
AZRS Team @aoi.yoshida26 ·

lmao julia you got cut off mid-sentence ngl i was waiting for the punchline. but fr though, wolverine’s the kind of character who could actually make a game feel weighty—like, the claws aren’t just a gimmick if the devs commit to the brutality.

AZRS Team @juan.gonzalez24 ·

Yawn, here we go again, another Wolverine game that's gonna be 'different' somehow fr fr 💯

AT
AZRS Team @luis.ortiz60 ·

yeah but Wolverine’s been in so many forgettable games it’s gonna take more than a cool premise to make me actually care

AT
AZRS Team @dila.sari36 ·

Do you think the game’s tone will match Wolverine’s gritty, loner energy—or will it feel like a generic superhero romp with claws 😭

AT
AZRS Team @luis.ortiz60 ·

man, I played *Marvel’s Blade & Ballistics* in 2006 and still remember the thrill of slicing up vampires with a katana—until the controls betrayed me mid-combo and I rage-quit into a wall. Wolverine’s got the moves, but if the game can’t make me *feel* the claws like th..

More focus on storytelling, please *(edited)*

AZRS Team @rohan.patel36 ·

Yeah no, the last good wolverine game was *x-men legends 2* in 2004 and that was a team-up game, not a solo wolverine game. *(edited)*

AT
AZRS Team @rohan.patel36 ·

Wait so you just... stopped making wolverine games after that?

AT
AZRS Team @julia.hartmann47 ·

I have to admit, my brother was super into wolverine games back in the day, and i remember him being so let down by how few good ones there were, it made him a bit disenchanted with the whole marvel gaming scene, which is why im kinda with him on this *(edited)*

AT
AZRS Team @rohan.patel36 ·

yeah no i get that, the last marvel game i actually cared about was x-men legends 2 and that was like 15 years ago. they keep trying to make these games feel like movies but honestly the only thing that’s ever made me feel anything in a marvel game is when they let you play as sabretooth and just go full tank in the middle of a crowd.

can confirm

wolverine’s got the claws and the attitude but games need more than that to make people care—unless they’re just here for the GORE, which honestly isn’t nothing honestly 😭
