considering WotC and chimera squad were already Figurative Marvel Shit, the pivot to Literal Marvel Shit is about the least surprising thing ever; if you didn't see this coming I suggest staying out of the entrail reading business. the real surprise here's that everyone buried the lede blubbering about deckbuilding stuff so thoroughly that I had no idea this was Meet n Fuck Marvel
not since borderlands 2 has a game's dialogue filled me with the primal unease of an ape seeing a particularly snakelike vine. started this up while my wife was in the shower and when she texted asking if I could make some coffee I knew the choice was to smash ALT+F4 or risk being divorced on the spot
the cardgame bit I'm kinda whatever about. I think I'd like it more if the camera was positioned anywhere else and it didn't lean so hard into Epic Cinematic Presentation that even the most basic actions take a century to unfold. it's cool you can do the type of MTG blue deck bullshit where your turn lasts so long the person on the other side of the table regrets being a nerd, but not cool enough to endure the simpering social layer, endless cutscenes, and deranged tutorializing that make up the bulk of the game
have to imagine you'd have a better time stuffing hulk hands in your ass while playing slay the spire

It's so weird to me how much this game looks and feels like it just comes default in the games tab of your fresh out of the box Vista from Dell and yet it is so good.
The big drawback to the game though is the difficulty scaling - boy howdy do monsters punch way above their weight towards the latter half and really prolong the experience more than is justified.
Still worth it for a rare instance of a mythology game that doesn't suck, also has a bunch of new expansions I have yet to play so there is still some love going into this one, somehow.
