I just started playing this new game, Marvel Future Revolution, and guys...y'all need to
hop on this RIGHT NOW before it's too late. I'mma tell y'all all about it in this video.
So get ready, cause I'm about to go in...y'all know how I do.
What's Up Y'all? My Name is Prince, and this is Hero Culture.
This video, I'm gonna tell y'all about this new game Marvel Future
Revolutions and why you need to hurry up and jump on this now before it's too late.
So Marvel Future Revolutions is a brand new mobile action RPG
that officially dropped on August 25. There was a soft launch about 2 months ago in Canada,
but anyone who jumped on the Omega Watch server wouldn't be able to transfer their
progress to the other servers one the game officially went live.
So if you're seeing videos on the game from June/July, that was people who got on the
Canadian server. I considered it, but I had stuff to do, so I decided to wait.
So it was cool that the game went live on my birthday,
but I was kinda busy on my birthday, but I'm playing now,
and y'all...it was worth the wait because this game is more fun than I thought it would be!
So the first thing I want to talk about is the story behave y'all know me,
I like a good story. Like I have to know why I'm running around as
Captain Marvel or as Spider-Man beating the breaks off people.
So as you've seen in the prologue videos, there's some cataclysmic event that a small team of
superheroes are trying to prevent. Actually AIM is trying to prevent the same event, but
their solution is going to result in the destruction of an entire planet.
What's happening is somehow other Earth's have all crossed over into the same dimension.
You can call this a Crisis on Infinite Earths type event
because whatever is causing this, it's happened before.
On this particular Earth where our heroes are fighting, their Vision uses the fuel cells to
power the bomb AIM created and the equipment that Henry Pym built to prevent the event
and basically phases one Earth through the other one and creates a new Earth.
The problem didn't stop there because like I said, there are other Earth's that have crossed
over into this dimension, so there's still this threat of the Convergence event happening again,
and there's a fear that they may not be able to prevent the next one from destroying the planet.
So it really falls in line with where the MCU is right now in Phase 4.
We got teased about the multiverse in Spiderman Far from Home.
Then in the Loki series, we got to see the sacred timeline and learned about Variants
who are just displaced people, thanks to the TVA, who belong to alternate timelines.
This thing with these Earth's crossing over into other dimensions
is like all of the timelines starting to all run together.
I don't know, but it could be really cool if we find out that these Earths crossing over into
the same dimension is the game's version of having a timeline pruned from whatever
sacred timeline that Kang the Conqueror is trying to preserve.
It would be cool to have some type of MCU tie-in like that too
help promote the game even more, but we'll see.
So I'm addition to playing through the story on all 8 release day characters,
there's also the endless grind of chasing stats to build up your hero
and the true endgame, acquiring more costume pieces.
In this game, unlike with Marvel's Avengers, all of the gear you acquire can change the look of
your character. You can also use the transmogrify feature to set your own look from your collected
costume pieces so that you keep the look you want as opposed to the great you're wearing.
In addition to playing through the story there are various PvE co-op opportunities
like Blitzes and Raids. Of course there are PvP and PvPvE events as well.
The biggest part of the game, right now, is building up your squad. So even though
you might decide to focus on Spiderman, Captain America, or Storm as your main character, you also
get stronger by building up the other characters on the roster, so who knows, you might get even
stronger from spending time playing on Starlord, who actually was surprisingly fun to play.
Now being a free to play mobile game,
the question is always going to come up about it the game is pay to win.
Now I've been an MMO player off and on since I first started playing City of Heroes in 2004,
so the idea of paying $15 a month subscription for a superhero game isn't foreign to me.
Later in that game's life, it went free to play and put newer content behind a
paywall that you either had to subscribe to get, or purchase from the in-game store.
In these kinds of mobile games, it actually is possible to go in and
spend a lot of money on stuff that will clearly give your character an advantage.
Some people are going to hear that and want to distance themselves from the game,
and that's cool. I'll just say that if someone out there spends $10k on their character,
what did that have to do with me enjoying the game?
I just want to fly around and do cool Captain Marvel stuff after my workout,
or when I'm not busy working on my other channel...
Sometimes I need a break from talking about Bruce Lee and all kinds of martial arts stuff.
I mean, if you have a problem with pay to win games, I gotta tell you...life is pay to win.
Some people clearly have advantages over other people because they are rich,
they won the genetic lottery, or both.
I mean what if you're a high school kid playing AAU basketball for the team
sponsored Jim Bob's Rib Shack in Nebraska,
and you're going to be playing against Bronny James' team of future NBA stars at a tournament?
Life is pay to win, so just get out there, shoot your shot, and enjoy.
And speaking of things to enjoy, let me tell y'all what's coming— so on my birthday they
devs did a livestream where they announced an event coming sometime this month...an
invasion event being led by the Mad Titan himself.
Now Thanos actually did appear in the story. I haven't reached this point, but the story deals
with people displaced on Primary Earth because Thanos destroyed their planet.
But this Thanos, maybe he's a variant like we saw in Avengers: Endgame.
Who knows? I'm just hoping to have at least my main,
Captain Marvel, at a high enough level to participate in the invasion event!
Also, in addition to this huge event, we're also getting a new hero,
Magick from the New Mutants, so that's 2 people affiliated with the X-Men in the game,
and I've heard people saying that Magneto could be coming, but that's just people talking right now.
We'll have to wait and see how that goes
So like I said— this game has a lot going for it— a deep story, lots to do, new events,
and even more characters coming!
Now if you're the type of person to rush through the content,
I'm going to be honest, you might get quickly bored with the game.
It's a little light on Endgame content because part of building up your main character comes
from leveling up your entire character roster. So that's what most people are doing right now,
and it might take the average person a few months to get a few characters
on their squad up to max level to even be able to participate in any serious endgame content.
For now, I'm hoping that there will be an evolving story to go along with new characters in the game.
If you're considering giving the game a shot,
feel free to hop on over to Wakanda 2 in the Southeast Asia region and look me up.
Maybe we can get an Alliance team started over there — that would be pretty cool.
Make sure to stay tuned here for more Future Revolution story videos and also
MCU discussion videos...like the video I did on my favorite things about the Captain Marvel movie!
Thanks for hanging out to talk about Heroes and Geek stuff.
Y'all keep on breathing and I'll see you in the next video!
