It is certainly weird in these dystopian times of multiplayer gaming we've found somewhat of a hype for a game that may be, just mayyyy be too "inspired" by Overwatch. Either way, I'm not going to talk about the performance nor the censorship, because you'll see that everywhere you look. It's not a terrible game or anything but it drains my energy too much to play it very often. The good thing is that in casual most people aren't sweating their butts off so you can take it more as an actual game rather than an esports match (unlike Overwatch 2's quickplay which is super frustrating, don't play that game for your own good)

I don't know. The game feels too heavy for some reason. Even when you're playing fast characters like Spiderman, Venom or Black Panther, the base speed of everyone is so insufferably slow that it makes you not be able to dodge any bullets or projectiles at all. The balancing needs tweaking, yes, but even then this is a core issue with the game itself. It's too dependent on cooldowns for the movement which is not good game design.

Some of the heroes don't feel as epic as they should even. Like Captain America has such a low damage with his supposedly super adamantium shield and his ultimate ability is so... Lame... Or Venom; this otherworldy entity that's supposed to be super intimidating but it ends up being this boring bullet sponge that slams down a couple times. His ultimate doesn't even do that much damage which is a shame. Magneto doesn't really use many of his, you know, magnetic abilities to do stuff. He just puts a bunch of shields up and that's about it.

The DP- the "duelists" are the most interesting side of this game. And they added most of the cooler heroes here, which means that everybody will want to play them and nobody will want to play support. However, I don't blame players for this; if the other two roles felt better, then this probably wouldn't be such a huge issue.

The suppo- I mean the "strategists" could had more recognizable characters in it too. I feel like the developers focused very much on the damage dealers and a tiny bit of consideration for the big bullet sponges instead of the support department. You have Rocket Raccoon, which is pretty nice, and Jeff the Shark is a funny addition to attract new players into the role.

A lot of the ults are also just an instant, big hitbox (or healbox?) that is hard to avoid. Which feels boring to use and frustrating to play against.

The characters have pretty good designs though. They did the best job here (which will also make you want to buy those shiny skins). I don't know what else to say. It's the fresh new shooter and it still has content to go with. But if most of the stuff above is reworked then the game would be much better and lest infuriating.

Also the competitive mode is great if you enjoy BDSM and getting insulted. If you're into that then play that.
