Been playing Avatar Legends: The Fighting Game and Marvel Tokon's Open Beta. The Avatar fighting game is pretty cool, it has issues and was clearly rushed to launch just so it coincided with the new movie official launch, but the game is solid. Some of the issues is wrong localization, wrong trial inputs, lack of voice acting in some parts of the story, lack of pre-order bonus and ranked so far, which all sucks, but I hope get's addressed soon enough because the gameplay is fire. I have also finished the story mode and it's a silly story, but in a good way, like it doesn't take itself seriously and just kind of play with the personality of the characters. I also have gone online and had a blast. I have only played Korra online, and even got into a FT10 set against a Kyoshi where I lost every single game and it was still fun. I can't wait for ranked to be added.

Now for Tokon, I'm conflicted. It seems very polished and looks like it will have a rather extensive story mode, but I'm not entirely vibing with the gameplay. I played Ghost Rider, Magik, Wolverine and Black Panther. Ghost Rider and Magik are the 2 I liked the best so far. I had a blast playing a few games against my brother because we were clearly at a similar skill level, and I liked playing some matches online, but others are just incredibly frustrating. I don't know why, but this is might be the type of fighting game that is frustrating to me.

Now for the actual issues I have, first they blocked Linux on purpose during this beta and giving this is the second ArcSys game with a third party IP that uses EAC and blocks Linux, DBFZ being the other one, I'm not confident they will allow Linux players on launch. Not only that but while it is really cool that the game is localized in multiple languages with dubbing, the Brasilian Portuguese dub kind of sucks, there's good voices in there, don't get me wrong, but Wolverine's voice doesn't match the character at all, Magik lost her characteristic Russian accent, Doom's voice feels like the actor was told to just read the script with barely any intonation and Black Panther also lost her characteristic African accent, and I'm sure there might be others. What sucks even more is that for Wolverine's case we have an official voice actor for him that does have a great matching voice but for some reason doesn't play him in this game. And if that is not bad enough, for some fucking reason all the characters are referred by their english names when they have a proper localized name, this shit is so fucking awful, specially because the European Spanish dub uses their localized names instead of just having a bullshit english name inserted in the middle of a sentence. Also the price fucking sucks here, this shit is not localized pricing at all, I'm not getting it without a discount.
