Marvel Rivals players are not only interested in but also are constantly asking for new characters. Furthermore, who would request a character when a couple of extremely popular ones are already coming? In fact, the heart of the matter is the fact that players recognize the love story of the two and that is why they are so curious about how the game will reflect that over their abilities.
The central issue of the debate emerging from the character selection seems to be Gambit and Rogue themselves. What is most interesting is that the debate is not only conducted through posts but also replies with a mix of opinions and humor provided by players coming from different backgrounds. User strategies and team setups are probably the main concerns, and still, love stories are there to support player decisions and character choices.
Anyway, there are still these odd requests that remind you you’re on the web. One user, @kys_hikikomori, asked the developers to ‘guangguang give us a sex emote.’ How that contributes to the overall chaotic environment of the thread is unclear. On the other hand, @nerdyhjarta is all set to lose his soul just for the announcement text background image. That’s really a show of commitment.
Patience during chaos is still considered a virtue and therefore, the presentation is still appreciated. A considerable number of players have praised the announcement writing. @XenosGift has called it ‘some fire writing’ whereas @CarolyninFandom has asked, ‘Who writes these seriously they are beautiful.’ @deezkillstreeks has even pronounced, ‘They got poets on the media team.’ So, thank you very much Marvel Rivals social media team for your emotional depth, always hitting the right note.
Of course, the complaints about the game’s current situation came up together with the announcement. @Alivlugo replied in Spanish, ‘Arreglen su matchmaking @MarvelRivals’, referring to the common complaint about the matchmaking system in competitive gaming when the players’ skill levels or the past engagement rates of the players become the basis for their being matched up. Another player, @uiKujo, opted for a slightly sarcastic tone and said, ‘Here’s to 1 year of EOMM,’ referring to engagement-optimized matchmaking theories. Thus, it can be said that although the new content is enticing, community issues regarding the core gameplay are still the hot topics.
And after all this, character requests didn’t stop. @stradeheart is waiting for Professor X, @rkdiiaz is campaigning a Cyclops DPS variant for this season, and @Marcelo0089 is lobbying for mutant Pixie to be included as a strategist. It means that the Marvel universe is vast and everyone has a certain favorite waiting to be seen. The players’ enthusiasm is really hard to ignore, even if at times it comes across as dispersed.
So the players are not only interested in but also are constantly asking for new characters. Besides, who would ask for a character when there are already two extremely popular ones coming? Indeed, the core of the matter is that players acknowledge the love story of the two and that’s why they are curious about how the game will reflect that over their skills.
