I think it woks, just not really by itself.

It's basically like any other form of marketing. It's probably not going to be the sole reason why people buy it, but it will shine a spotlight on it and the people running it hope that some people find the game interesting enough to buy it

It does also just straight up work with a lot of kids. My niece and nephew got Smash Bros and now they predictably want to try other games that their favourite Smash Bros characters are from.

Yeah, it's up to you to decide what ANY word means in ANY dialect right. Like you couldn't just be wrong and get over it, you have to say a metric ton of bullshit trying to come out right.

The gameplay loop is designed to be a cash grab. Endgame you just do dailies/weeklies and get whatever free currency they provide to collect more characters in a game that stopped being fun weeks ago. You didn't realize it wasn't fun any more because the next slot machine pull could finally give you the character you've been working all month to get, so that you can.... what exactly? Grind dailies with a different character?

And who downvotes someone asking for a little technical info. I'm sorry, did this question somehow offend someone? Rub ya the wrong way?? LOL. My god, Reddit.

I don’t think it would be as hard as you think. I’ve seen people roleplay with gpt4, asking it to pretend it’s in ye olde times and to only respond like someone back then would.

With very few prompts it did a good job.

I imagine a AAA game could definitely license some ai and fairly easily tweak it to role play as various characters in their game.

That is true but I do like the idea of an MMO/Destiny style Avenger game with a larger roster. That's what this Avengers tried to be it just missed the bar and wanted a more concise, linear story. Which I think bottle-necked a lot of the content. Also leveling each individual character is just pure annoying. I like how Ruined King did their character additions. When they joined they were at or near your current level.

Guardians was a surprise to me. I loved it more than I thought I would. My only complaint was I would have loved to be able to swap characters rather than just use them like attacks. Maybe in a sequel. I get for the first game it was Peter's story so you were him the whole game. I also wish the choices made much of a difference. As far as I am aware it is just minor dialogue and cutscene switches.

I did try this game, it just didn't grab me. I did think the visuals were really nice but everything else just felt, I don't know, empty? I remember trying to read things about it, people saying the characters were great, etc. etc. but I just didn't find that and just couldn't get into it. I know that fairy thing that you wake up next to had the most annoying voice I ever heard. It just clashed with everything else.
