A game that obviously went through a tough development cycle and it shows in its performance issues, though those are partially due to the 2K launcher which is dogshit and ass and needs to be retired.
Full disclosure that I have not finished the game but the only reason why I haven't is because the 2k Launcher gave me a catastrophic bug that wouldn't let it launch. This game is endlessly charming, its so fun to have a comic book game that isn't afraid of being comic book-y. its bright, its got color, its interesting, you have goofy outfits and big bold attacks. Its well shot which is insane for a video game, most video games don't know what a camera angle is and this game busts out some genuinely inspired ones that create some evocative cutscenes. The character writing ranges from corny to incredibly well done, with it being some of the best appearances of many of these characters in years. It's content rich and mechanically dense with a lot of fun shit that comes from the way that its card based system interacts with the multiple mechanics that it gives per character. Its progression is a little jank and the game's very stingy but this is pretty easily managed with some very slight modding. I dunno. There's definitely issues, but this game really deserves acclaim. If I wasn't a mega Disney hater, I'd be pimping this thing everywhere.
