Massive waste of potential...

Warning: Spoilers
I can't be the only one who never heard of the main character of this Avengers game before it released right? So many cherished members that could have been used that will most likely be added later to take more money from us, or since it was a blatant political statement we could have had the choice to have all inclusiveness to create our own hero with fresh new powers that could be any sex or race, but we've been forced to accept this rando to the team that has united generations for decades and now it seems to purposefully divide because I guarantee OG Avengers fans don't care about KK and the easily influenced youth will be tricked into believing its due to bigotry or racism.....we just wanted what everyone knows deep down they all wanted...an immersive experience that does justice to the portrayal of amazing heroes we've grown to care for with rich worlds that could have completely outshone any other superhero game for years to come. What we get?? Ridiculous repetitive grinding to get stuff that is pretty obvious to tell the creators are hoping we'd just pay extra for. Wouldn't be so bad if the powerhouse characters didn't feel so stripped of what makes them all forces to reckon with. I had more satisfaction from the monstrous strength of Hulk playing the older 2008 installment on PS2, could rip cars in half and use them as boxing gloves, yeeted enemies like a Hail Mary football play and just didn't feel very challenged unless facing enemies of a similar tier and always felt so awesome. I suppose that maybe that game and how well the recent Spider-Man games were handled had my expectations for this 2020 release to be top notch graphics that could fully capture the raw savagery of Hulk, high-tech hailstorms of supersonic energy from Iron man, immense divine wrath of almighty Thor, ghost-like agile ruthless assassin skills of Black Widow, and the clever unmatched strategist that marks Captain America as leader. Not anything close to this was felt. Hulk, Thor and Iron Man movements and combat feel nerfed to let the other characters keep up when like in the Ultimate Alliance games they could have worked together! First off you have Tony on the team even if not on your own team he is still the one that would most likely supply the technology so Cap and BW could be flying on jet bikes so that they could all charge through the air together while letting Hulk jump over mountains like he can instead of just a few feet. Even if not like that imagine IM and Thor flying in with BW and Cap and then throwing them in to be slam down the shield or a shockwave landing. Iron man could direct his beams off the shield. Thor and Cap could have done combos together with the hammer since he was shown to be worthy. Hulk could charge in with BW on his back shooting up some fools with the best shield she could have! So many missed teamwork opportunities that would have been awesome to perform online with friends!!! Extremely disappointing with how well this game could have easily been given the magnitude of the project they've been given. It's Marvel's Avengers for heavens sakes!!! No way was it not in the budget to have created a whole new era of Marvel gaming with this title. Massive waste of potential.
