Ugh, I hate Morlun. He was cool in his initial appearance, but in Spiderverse, he and his widowpeaked family became “We’re ludicrously invincible and nosell everything unless you McGuffin us”. I don’t want to go down that road again.
Since this game is so reuse heavy, I wonder if they could’ve reused any TvC characters. Batsu, Alex, Saki & Kaijin would’ve been easy to reuse, but all would’ve generated some hype since they’re “new” to MvC.
There seems to be some agreement where Marvel & Capcom get the same amount of newcomers.
So if Capcom really wanted to maximize the roster they could’ve had She-Hulk/MODOK/Tasky/Shuma/Iron Fist & Wesker/Vergil/Ammy/Joe/Phoenix return. Port over the 4 TvC characters as “newcomers” & then make like Star-Lord/Ms Marvel/Luke Cage/Daredevil.
Saw someone on anothe forum wonder how people would’ve reacted if the roles were reversed & we only got 6 veterans. I was bored & made a mock roster of that, I think it could’ve been pretty cool.
