Leaderboard: Where do you stand on Marvel Heroes’ massive overhaul update?

Past the downtime and the lag and the inventory snafus, how are Marvel Heroes players reacting to the “biggest update ever?”

Not well. On Steam, negative reviewers are busily tanking the game’s rating, dragging its review score down from its usual “mostly positive” to the recent “mostly negative” with claims that the update drained the game of fun and lore and action and depth-wise is “a shallow husk of what it used to be.”

On Reddit, players are upset that Gazillion apparently removed newbie accounts’ options for their first hero, a regression in design goals.

On the official forums, players are annoyed over movement changes, the power bar, item changes, and attribute changes, calling it a “total destruction of a fantastic game.” Ouch.

That said, there’s a bit of positivity too, particularly when it comes to the infinity system and costume system.

If you gave it a go over the weekend, what do you think?
