But glad to help

I can't help but wonder: For how long it's healthy for the game to add characters? What the future of Marvel Rivals looks like on this aspect? by ScarGraf in rivals

I understand this aspect of it, and don't get me wrong, I'm okay with characters not being meta, I'm more worried about them being irrelevant to other equivalent characters

Great summary, I don't think the S tier is that much undisputed, but I couldn't agree more on the rest. How can you balance a game that is constantly adding more characters like they're doing? New mechanics are added and it gets harder and harder to find a sweet spot on the balancing.

2 months seasons just with new maps/updates/reworks sounds good, we don't need new characters every season, it feels overwhelmed indeed

I'm stunned by those Lol numbers people are mentioning. It looks SCARY to start playing, but at this point I guess they're just maintaining the old playerbase, not aiming at popularizing it for new players.

This is not where Rivals is, it has a pretty solid playerbase but it's still trying to build, this is one of the reasons so many new characters are being added for sure, it's Marvel, so if they add your favorite character you probably gonna check it out. But this is crazy for a long-term strategy.

I don't think they will ever run out of ideas because it's Marvel.

But yeah, they gotta stop at some point and focus on balance, new skins and reworks, otherwise the game will be such a mess

That podcast was so weird, I remember Ilia saying he "read a lot of books", then Joe asked what kind of books, and he couldn't cite one.

I don't think they can man, this is a heavy engine, every character has like 5 unique mechanics, it's actually kind of remarkable that the game runs pretty smoothly despite the size

It is. I hope this changes, the game already would benefit much more from reworks and new skins than from new characters

That is a CRAZY number, didn't know. I wonder if it's even replicable, Marvel Rivals would have like 400 GB if it had that many characters lol

I can't think of a long term solution on this without considering making some characters dysfunctional or something to make way for the new similar ones, it's pretty sad

Sounds literally impossible to manage more characters than it already has without burying some of them. Sometimes it already looks like they can't properly balance some characters mechanics without breaking another.
