Personally I think it should take heavy inspiration from Ultimate marvel vs capcom 3, emphasizing characters unique moves and powers, having a comic book inspired art style,and having some of the most iconic voice actors for the characters reprising their roles, but also take inspiration from the injustice series, with the opening characters interactions, and the ability to interact with the environment.
It would be epic if the gameplay was similar to Tekken 8 cause T8 gameplay is absolutely cracked and fun asf. I dont wanna see lame MvC gameplay Id like either Tekken 8 gameplay or something like MK1. MK1 just dropped and it's probably the best NRS game with insane combo potential The roster should be HUGE. 50+ characters would be nice. Off the top of my head I want Mister Negative, John Walker, Rhino, Juggernaut, Kraven, Iron Fist, Shang-Chi, Lady Shiva, Val Armorr, lots of master martial artist characters, Static, Miles Morales, 2099 Spidey, Superior Spidey, Deathstroke, Onomatopoeia, Ghost-Maker, Prometheus, Bane, Batman, Red Hood, the whole Bat family, Supe family, Red and Yellow lantern corps, Green Arrow, Arsenal, the Titans, Booster Gold, Carnage, Venom, Red Goblin, Green Goblin, Knull, Apocalypse, Wolverine, Ghost Rider, Court of Owls, The Punisher, Deadpool, Assassin characters, Doctor Doom, etc
I really like the inclusion of Gwenpool as being behind the plot, because then you get to explore the concept of her bringing up that she read DC Comics in her real world too, and she could recognize Mr. Mxyzptlk, there's just a lot of comedic potential there.

The "we're not mortal enemies" route would be even cooler if they add DLC characters from different publishing companies. Spawn, Invincible, Hellboy, TMNT, The Boys, Conan the Barbarian, etc. Just a game celebrating the whole comic book medium as a whole.
Genuinely I think a Marvel Vs DC fighting game would sell ENORMOUSLY well, even more than Marvel Vs Capcom.

itd be hilarious if DLC characters came from other publishers invincible, hellboy, spawn, TMNT, the rocketeer, the crow, the boys (but u play as kimiko), witchblade, radiant black. itd be so cool and almost impossible
Honestly. You're throw away line about it being a lego game sounds like a great idea to me. That you can focus on the fact this isn't a "verse crossover" but a love letter to both worlds and you can get way more characters in it. I would hope it's more pre "the Skywalker saga" than the style that they've gone with now because I didn't find it as fun but that might be because they tried to keep the levels to how the films where. taking that style into a story not based on a film might help it shine
I think having an Amalgam DLC pack of characters could be a fun idea too. Maybe not as the first DLC cuz people would just be asking for their favourites, but a nice send off pack would be fitting
I think a tag team mechanic would be better. Like let's say you're playing with a Marvel and a DC character together, if you reach level 3, both combine into an amalgam character, and yes, it could also have that by combining Marvel characters or DC characters between themselves.

Again, maybe I was just poisoned by the shallow storytelling of the 90s
What Injustice 2 did with the Ninja Turtles could work with a lot of characters. The way it worked was that you go into the gear menu and you change the turtle’s weapon and the weapon you choose turns you into that turtle. This could work with a lot of characters, Spider-Man with Scarlet spider and Miles morales, the green lanterns, Batman and all his movie adaptations, etc
Despite what form it takes, all I would want from a DC and Marvel crossover is Green Arrow strangling Iron Man and demanding he redistribute his wealth.
There could also be a cool mechanic in story mode where you choose whatever fighter you want before each fight. So right before the batman vs spiderman fight starts, you get to choose if you play as batman or spiderman in that fight. And then whoever you choose is the one who wins, because it's the player. You could possibly even have brnaching story beats depending on who the winners of each fight are, but that might be too complex for a fighting game story mode.
Yeah! And it could be a choose your own adventure type story where if you choose the Marvel character and win, the next cutscenes will be favorable to Marvel, and when you choose Marvel and you lose, the next cutscenes will be favorable to DC, which will be a gut punch if you lose as your favorite franchise.
They could implement that, BUT it would have to be a single linear story, where you get only 2 endings, just like 'Injustice 2', but instead of having only the final decision matter, have an ammount of decisions factor into each ending.
Or it could be like Sonic Adventure 2 where there’s a Marvel campaign and a DC campaign, where it’s the same plot but from the different teams perspective.
One thing that could be easy to track for the hypothetical game is having characters randomly changing like in the first crossover. Like one minute you’re on a mission as Hulk but he transforms into Doomsday or Grundy and you have a fight. That way you could also tie it to what comics did while also being creative.
This should've been a collaboration with Thorgi's Arcade, he's great at making hypothetical fighters and building a roster videos out of that in a concise manner. For a DC.V. Marvel game needs to be a celebration of both, and games like MVC3 still have fan modders creating Marvel and Capcom models, so the interest is still there.
You know, I think it'd be interesting to see a full video on your version of TASM 3. The concept you proposed sounds interesting, and I think it's got a lot of potential to be great.
I am curious how they will handle Injustice 3 considering that Kevin Conroy sadly passed away. He was the definitive Batman and with him gone it's hard to imagine how they would handle Batman or if they would just recast.
@@hungaryhippo7294 I thought he was good as Batman but I also think that either the current voice of Batman in the animated movies Jensen Ackles or Roger Craig Smith from Arkham Origins could voice him
I don't know, I think if they just brought another voice actor in then Conroy fans could see it as somewhat disrespectful depending on how it's handled but I think it would be cool to see Batman Beyond introduced as to my knowledge he is yet to appear in that universe
Well in the batman ending of injustice 2 he was gonna start working in the background and semi retire while Barry and Hal rebuild the justice league and Bruce rebuilds the cities destroyed. And since he sorta semi-retired with the only batman related stuff he's doing is working to keep Superman in prison but he does it in the background it wouldn't surprise me if Batman wouldn't appear in injustice 3 at all.
@@TheDoubleD441it wouldn’t be disrespectful at all, when it comes to voice acting, it’s done all of the time, Conroy wasn’t his own FORM of Batman, he was THE Batman, in the broadest way, meanwhile others that have played characters that have died have been replaced extremely easily (like with all of the villains in the ‘66 Batman animated spin-offs) and they did it in a way that still was faithful to the original version that the original actor ESTABLISHED, which makes it a way bigger deal - being a unique version of that character.
I’d lowkey be most excited to see the fight dialogue. WW and Thor: Wonder Woman: We’re i come from the Nordic gods are drunken warmongers. Thor: The Greek gods were always coddled. You haven’t faced struggle. Wonder Woman: Do you intend to show it to me. Shazam vs Thor: Shazam: Get ready to feel the thunder! Thor: You are merely playing god. Allow me to introduce you to a real one. Spiderman vs Batman Spiderman: Introducing your friendly neighborhood Spiderman! Batman: Your in the wrong neighborhood kid. WW vs Wolverine Wolverine: I’m the best at what I do. And what I do isn’t very nice. Wonder Woman: And what makes you believe what you do can harm me. Wolverine: Because it’s already been tested on gods.
I’d love to see a star wars fighting game, not only because Star wars is cool, but I’ve never seen a sword-based fighting game. Plus, having general grievous as the Ganondorf of the game would be really funny. Not sure how you would do non-force sensitives like Han and Chewie though (I can’t really imagine a game without them b/c OT go brrr).
Grievous is much more agile and finesse based than ganon. Vader is more of the ganondorf type, grievous would be something like an ultrafast swordie who gets lots of quick hits in and runs fast but also doesn't have much health
@@apersonwhomayormaynotexist9868 I was more meaning in the sense that he’s pure power and not much else. A noob slayer. I’m imagining the game would have some sort of force power meter system and grevious just wouldn’t have any because he’s not a force user. In canon he was really only any good because he had a reputation that was built on killing weak Jedi, surprise attacks, and unfair situations (ie when he fight Eeth Koth)
I feel like you could include an Easter egg where depending on which universe your characters from there’s a small chance Mxyzptlk or Gwenpool will decide to replace your cameo character for one cameo attack. I feel like it would be interesting if Gwen’s would involve here ripping an asset from the screen and attacking with it, And Mxyzptlk could run in and do a different characters cameo attack but mess it up in some quirky way.
I love the idea of the stages being amalgamations of locations in both universes. I don’t know marvel as well as I do DC but I’m picturing two cities merging together, buildings overlapping each other and crashing into each other. You see the Stark tower and Wayne Industries on opposite sides of the background
You say that the Joker is too oversatured this days, but in actuality Harley Quinn is WAAAAY more overexposed than him. Not only she is in literally everything, even on things that she is not necessary, but she also gets to be the main character of many things while the Joker is relegated to just a villain in Batman media and SOMETIMES on Justice League crossovers.
Actually that is true what is birds of prey even about😭 And the Joker is the arch-nemesis of course he’s everywhere Like saying Lex Luther is over-saturated
I think its crazy that Arc System Works wanted to put both Marvel and DC in BlazBlue Crosstag Battle, I wish we could see the universe where that happened
I think plot wise once the player finds out it’s Myxzptlk and Gwen at some point they start commentating over a fight but it leads to them arguing, and then they have a fight, where the player then decides who to play as. Ultimately they’d knock eachother out which would cause the universe to slowly start unraveling, and in the process the main 4 from each universe would get thrown across the “planned plot” of the game, which is where you could insert stuff from completely different properties if they were to get the rights to stuff like Star Wars or invincible
One thing that could make the huge character roster work for the dev team, would be having a Marvel game studio and a DC game studio team up for the game. To allow for more characters to be made.
As neat of an idea this was, I’d prefer another studio that isn’t Netherealm or Capcom take a crack at a versus game. Aside from all the loopholes the developer/publisher would have to go through, Marvel Vs DC should be done by a studio that is willing to experiment with the formula in a way that feels distinct from other fighting games in terms of gameplay and art direction.
I think by the end of this, both Marvel and dc heroes come together to destroy the badguys, pulling the strings, and then everyone is happy, and people won't complain about who wins and who lost. I wish dc and Marvel fans could get along more
I would love if Hawkman and Hawkgirl worked like the TMNT because these too are my favorite couple and I'd love to see them fight together. They still teamup and their alt will be a two person combo. They play slightly differnet giving Hawkman an ake and Hawkgirl the mace.
It'd be cool if dlc characters for something like this were non big 2 comic characters, radiant black, Scott Pilgrim, invincible, hell even Rick Grimes could work
As cool as a fighting game could be, I'd like to see a crossover similar to Marvel Ultimate Alliance/X-Men Legends and Justice League Heroes. Action-RPG with skill trees, team bonuses (and special team-up abilities) for the familiar groups and unexpected pairings, with cool interactions all around.
In addition to Premier skins, which I've also always thought would be awesome for a crossover superhero fighter, I think the inclusion of clone fighters, or even variations from MKX based on different characters would be awesome. Since we're already working with 2 different IP's, I think a focus on the multiverse would help as well. That way, you could have alternate versions of characters that would help fit bitter as alternates of the other comic. For instance, Ghost Rider COULD be a Lobos Premier skin (or the other way around), assuming he was included. If not, however, we could have Ghost Rider 2099 be a Wolverine Skin/Alternate, replacing the claws with his chainsaws. Limiting yourself to standard renditions of characters also limits your possibilities. As a side note, seeing Amalgam characters would also be awesome.
There have been eight Marvel fighting games made by Capcom X-Men Children of The Atom X-Men vs. Street Fighter Marvel Superheroes Marvel vs. Street Fighter Marvel vs. Capcom Marvel vs. Capcom 2 Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite
With Wolverine skins, there are a LOT of people that you could reskin Logan as. Laura obviously (and even she has two versions rn, Talon and Wolverine), but also Gabby Kinney (aka scout), Daken, Lady Deathstrike, and even something like Phalanx Wolverine
7:05 funny that you mention it, DC comics actually has *four* Fantastic Four equivalents (five if we count Cyborg Superman, which we won't)! The Terrifics and the Doom Patrol, as you mentioned, along with the Challengers Of The Unknown, a superhero team created by Jack Kirby which actually PREDATES the F4 by three years, and the Metal Men, which bear little connection to the F4 besides being science heroes that get around using a funky hovercraft.
The idea I would love if you at the start choose which universe, Marvel or DC, and then the story is that the other universe has attacked your universe (for some reason) and you spend the game finding more of your superheroes, and villains, to join your team. Then you have the online game where you can meet with friends and fight each other with the characters you have unlocked during the story mode
The skins thing is cool, but this would be a great opportunity for an Echo Fighter type system; pick one or two moves to change on the skins to make them more 'unique', or add an extra passive, such as removing Black Panther's vibranium blast and adding a flechette spray when using Prowler's skin. You could even just take moves from other characters to keep development low (e.g. Prowler is Black Panther with some Batman moves, Deadpool is Deadshot with Wolverine's passive or something)
They should make Almagan Characters. Like 2v2, each Team gets am Marvel and DC Character. Then in the fight they could merge to Supersoldier, Dark Claw, etc.
This is actually SICK asf. another idea,id say if they add reed richards or plastic man,they could make them skins of each other,also i feel like if this idea were to actually get made it'd take over a year to make,and it could make over billions of dollars
Love this pitch! I could also see this kind of game working a lot like the Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi games, where there’s a more open space for the fighters and more opportunities for the kinds of moves that can’t be used in an Injustice or Marvel vs Capcom-type game. Also, based on what you said from 2:35-2:42, I really wanna hear your thoughts on the Injustice games, cons of the story, mechanics, etc.
Agreed. There was a game called Marvel:Rise of the imperfects where you could throw stuff and move more freely, but it was not the best game albeit still fun.
I really like the MvC style, but I do think the game needs its own identity. I would like the gameplay and game feel to be a little more complex and faster than Netherrealm's fighting games (because we have to accept there isn't much difference between Injustice and MK, and that they are kinda slow). Aside from that, I would be interested in how the arcade mode is: who is the final boss, and what do you get at the end? I think Injustice's endings are cool, but there's a certain charm in MvC's endings that I think isn't talked about enough. It's just characters crossing over and I think it's very useful.
For another plot idea, I can't stop thinking in something like this Smash Brothers theory when a kid is just playing with toys of Mario an Kirby and putting into fighting just for the lols, but here you have two kids (one a Marvel fan and the other a Dc fan) and the story mode is just this two saying "Spiderman could beat Green Arrow" "Blue Bettle could beat Wolverine" and that kind of shit
On the topic of DC and Marvel crossovers... I have wondered why we haven't had a Marvel vs. DC Lego game for years EDIT: I wrote this before finishing the video
In its current state, both marvel and dc LEGO games are getting involved with the multiverse, dc supervillains introducing earth 3 and marvel having a secret wars event but with kang. A crossover game would be the perfect next game honeslty
i dont really like playing modded fighting games for some reason unless the mods are purely cosmetic/adding rollback, i have the utmost respect for the modders but I feel like the different design approaches that modded characters has kind of takes me out of it. right now i really hope capcom is able to make a new mvc game since theyre in talks with marvel again, the fighting game division at capcom seems to love the genre just as much as the fans right now
only a few mins in so idk if you talk about this, but the ui for the charachter select could be like a comic book page where, for instance you have daredevil in a slot along with all the marvel charachters, and then you flip the page and where daredevil was on the screen theres nightwing.
Honestly, I’ve thought about this idea a lot, and you’ve pretty much spoken best for beat what I’ve thought about in my head, which is awesome. Honestly, there’s not much I would change about your concept, but I always thought that if a big comic adaptation crossover were to exist, a lot of guest fighters from other comic companies would have to show up too. Characters like Spawn, the Mask, Hellboy, the TMNT, Invincible/Omni-Man, Conan, heck web-comics are rising in popularity and legitimacy so it’s not impossible to see some characters from there (Erma and Nimona are my favorites so I have bias towards them). Finally, I think Dream from Neil Gaiman’s the Sandman would be crazy to play as. It’s hard to see how something THAT big would fit in-story, but I think they could make it work.
NOTE: NOT MY IDEA OR CONCEPT, I AM BORROWING AN IDEA THE RUclipsR THE4THSNAKE DISCUSSED IN HIS IDEAL CONCEPT FOR AN MORTAL KOMBAT GAME. What they could do, is try bringing back the Variant system from Mortal Kombat X and combining it with the premier skins. To try to explain to the best of my abilities, MKX introduced a variant system in order to spice up the gameplay. Basic moves remain the same, punching, kicking, uppercutting etc. However, each character had 3 different variants that had different special moves and slightly altered the characters skin depending on which variant you picked. For an example, MKX introduced us to Triborg, who came with 4 distinct variants - Sektor, Cyrax, Cyber-Smoke and a secret 4th variant for Cyber Sub-Zero. Each one shared the same base moveset, but also had differing special attacks and combos, all while sharing one spot on the games roster. Netherrealm later did something similar with the TMNT in Injustice 2. For an example to see how this could work in a Marvel VS DC Game: we have The Hulk who acts as the base fighter, with a set list of special moves, voice lines and arcade endings designed specifically for him. But when you change variants, you change into either Solomon Grundy, Doomsday and The Thing. Again, they share the same basic attacks but each one has unique special attacks, dialogue and arcade endings. If that sounds like a lot of work, thats because it is, NOR is it the best option and most likely not possible, but personally, I feel like that this way, we can have as many Marvel/DC characters as need be, without making completely new characters and movesets.
A while back i had the idea for a comic book fighting game called "The D List". Which would take lesser known characters from all over comics, not just Marvel and DC and give them a place to shine. Guess it would be kinda like a western Jump Force but exclusively with D List characters.
I know this might never happen so don't take what I say too seriously. I would LOVE a Lego DC and Marvel game. Imagine Darkseid and Thanos as the main villains and you play as characters like Batman, Spider-Man, Superman, Captain America and many more. Some fun character interactions, a light hearted and fun story, you could do a lot with it
Okay but like what WOULD happen if Antman went up superman’s butt and grew really big? Cause like superman is super invulnerable. So like would his colon just crush antman? Is he squishy on the inside? Would antman wear superman’s indestructible body as armor? What are the physics here? I think the only logical option is that antman gets crushed in superman’s colon.
@@dc7981 i’m a diehard batman fan and everybody that uses prep time as an excuse clearly doesn’t read comics but that’s not to underestimate his power either. supes still wipes tho lol
I actually really like how the tag team mecanic is incorporated in a game like skull girls, you can select 1-3 characters and they are buffed or nerfed depending how many you chose. (Personally I wold incorporate a gimmick like mario kart tag team that gives names to the group depending on who you chose, like Superman, Batman and WW would be “trinity”, Batman and Robin “dynamic duo”, and like Joker and Deadpool be something like “nightmare standup routine”)
The idea to have 36 fighters and each fighter have a main designated fighter, but alternates skins that are unique and have unique interaction but retain the exact same moveset is so goddamn brilliant to me, such a great idea considering a lot of crossovers exist and you bolster the rosters without adding and changing too much, love that idea
For some reason I’ve been wanting a Spider man plus Batman series, weather it be comic, show, cinematic universe, and game series. Especially when you consider how similar some of there villains are and how they could interact, imagine a storyline of Clayface and Sandman fighting to get the cure for what happened to their bodies, imagine a cat women and Black Cat team up, imagine a king pin and Penguin war, in fact this crossovers finally could be a Carnagized Joker
I refuse to believe that when it comes to the love and care that a project like this needs that it should be handled by Arc-system works The amount of love they put into DBFZ is so potent that you can feel it All the refrences and the extremely fun gameplay style they are known for would be perfect

And it could be a choose your own adventure type story where if you choose the Marvel character and win, the next cutscenes will be favorable to Marvel, and when you choose Marvel and you lose, the next cutscenes will be favorable to DC, which will be a gut punch if you lose as your favorite franchise.
They could implement that, BUT it would have to be a single linear story, where you get only 2 endings, just like 'Injustice 2', but instead of having only the final decision matter, have an ammount of decisions factor into each ending.
basically how stan lee puts it, the writer determines the winner
Or it could be like Sonic Adventure 2 where there’s a Marvel campaign and a DC campaign, where it’s the same plot but from the different teams perspective.
One thing that could be easy to track for the hypothetical game is having characters randomly changing like in the first crossover. Like one minute you’re on a mission as Hulk but he transforms into Doomsday or Grundy and you have a fight. That way you could also tie it to what comics did while also being creative.
This should've been a collaboration with Thorgi's Arcade, he's great at making hypothetical fighters and building a roster videos out of that in a concise manner.
For a DC.V. Marvel game needs to be a celebration of both, and games like MVC3 still have fan modders creating Marvel and Capcom models, so the interest is still there.
You know, I think it'd be interesting to see a full video on your version of TASM 3. The concept you proposed sounds interesting, and I think it's got a lot of potential to be great.
And maybe, do a Video about a Persona-like Supernatural JRPG/Visual Novel Game, but with an Owl House skin because of well, it makes sense.
Animal Man would be a great skin for Vixen and Weather Witch (woman weather wizard) skin for Storm.
My favorite part about this video is that we share the same injustice 2 main ❤
If this ever happened it would be every comic and video game fan’s dream come true.
I am curious how they will handle Injustice 3 considering that Kevin Conroy sadly passed away. He was the definitive Batman and with him gone it's hard to imagine how they would handle Batman or if they would just recast.
They should cast Bruce Greenwood. He voiced him In Young Justice and Under the Red Hood.
@@hungaryhippo7294 I thought he was good as Batman but I also think that either the current voice of Batman in the animated movies Jensen Ackles or Roger Craig Smith from Arkham Origins could voice him
I don't know, I think if they just brought another voice actor in then Conroy fans could see it as somewhat disrespectful depending on how it's handled but I think it would be cool to see Batman Beyond introduced as to my knowledge he is yet to appear in that universe
Well in the batman ending of injustice 2 he was gonna start working in the background and semi retire while Barry and Hal rebuild the justice league and Bruce rebuilds the cities destroyed. And since he sorta semi-retired with the only batman related stuff he's doing is working to keep Superman in prison but he does it in the background it wouldn't surprise me if Batman wouldn't appear in injustice 3 at all.
@@TheDoubleD441it wouldn’t be disrespectful at all, when it comes to voice acting, it’s done all of the time, Conroy wasn’t his own FORM of Batman, he was THE Batman, in the broadest way, meanwhile others that have played characters that have died have been replaced extremely easily (like with all of the villains in the ‘66 Batman animated spin-offs) and they did it in a way that still was faithful to the original version that the original actor ESTABLISHED, which makes it a way bigger deal - being a unique version of that character.
I’d lowkey be most excited to see the fight dialogue.
WW and Thor:
Wonder Woman: We’re i come from the Nordic gods are drunken warmongers.
Thor: The Greek gods were always coddled. You haven’t faced struggle.
Wonder Woman: Do you intend to show it to me.
Shazam vs Thor:
Shazam: Get ready to feel the thunder!
Thor: You are merely playing god. Allow me to introduce you to a real one.
Spiderman vs Batman
Spiderman: Introducing your friendly neighborhood Spiderman!
Batman: Your in the wrong neighborhood kid.
WW vs Wolverine
Wolverine: I’m the best at what I do. And what I do isn’t very nice.
Wonder Woman: And what makes you believe what you do can harm me.
Wolverine: Because it’s already been tested on gods.
I’d love to see a star wars fighting game, not only because Star wars is cool, but I’ve never seen a sword-based fighting game. Plus, having general grievous as the Ganondorf of the game would be really funny. Not sure how you would do non-force sensitives like Han and Chewie though (I can’t really imagine a game without them b/c OT go brrr).
Try out guilty gear or soul caliber, most of the characters in those games have blades/on hand weapons
There was a star wars fighting game but uhhh we don't talk about it....
Try samurai shodown, it’s a sword based fighting game and sometimes your sword will even be flung out of your hand and you have to grab it again
Grievous is much more agile and finesse based than ganon. Vader is more of the ganondorf type, grievous would be something like an ultrafast swordie who gets lots of quick hits in and runs fast but also doesn't have much health
@@apersonwhomayormaynotexist9868 I was more meaning in the sense that he’s pure power and not much else. A noob slayer. I’m imagining the game would have some sort of force power meter system and grevious just wouldn’t have any because he’s not a force user. In canon he was really only any good because he had a reputation that was built on killing weak Jedi, surprise attacks, and unfair situations (ie when he fight Eeth Koth)
I always thought that the best way to cross over both companies is in a Lego game, would get a huge character roster as part of it
DC has The Challengers of The Unknown as their original Fantastic Four analogue, too.
I feel like you could include an Easter egg where depending on which universe your characters from there’s a small chance Mxyzptlk or Gwenpool will decide to replace your cameo character for one cameo attack.
I feel like it would be interesting if Gwen’s would involve here ripping an asset from the screen and attacking with it,
And Mxyzptlk could run in and do a different characters cameo attack but mess it up in some quirky way.
I love the idea of the stages being amalgamations of locations in both universes. I don’t know marvel as well as I do DC but I’m picturing two cities merging together, buildings overlapping each other and crashing into each other. You see the Stark tower and Wayne Industries on opposite sides of the background
You say that the Joker is too oversatured this days, but in actuality Harley Quinn is WAAAAY more overexposed than him. Not only she is in literally everything, even on things that she is not necessary, but she also gets to be the main character of many things while the Joker is relegated to just a villain in Batman media and SOMETIMES on Justice League crossovers.
Thank you! Someone else noticed!
Actually that is true what is birds of prey even about😭
And the Joker is the arch-nemesis of course he’s everywhere
Like saying Lex Luther is
over-saturated
I think its crazy that Arc System Works wanted to put both Marvel and DC in BlazBlue Crosstag Battle, I wish we could see the universe where that happened
I think plot wise once the player finds out it’s Myxzptlk and Gwen at some point they start commentating over a fight but it leads to them arguing, and then they have a fight, where the player then decides who to play as.
Ultimately they’d knock eachother out which would cause the universe to slowly start unraveling, and in the process the main 4 from each universe would get thrown across the “planned plot” of the game, which is where you could insert stuff from completely different properties if they were to get the rights to stuff like Star Wars or invincible
I think a Lego game of it would be the coolest option.
One thing that could make the huge character roster work for the dev team, would be having a Marvel game studio and a DC game studio team up for the game. To allow for more characters to be made.
As neat of an idea this was, I’d prefer another studio that isn’t Netherealm or Capcom take a crack at a versus game. Aside from all the loopholes the developer/publisher would have to go through, Marvel Vs DC should be done by a studio that is willing to experiment with the formula in a way that feels distinct from other fighting games in terms of gameplay and art direction.
I think by the end of this, both Marvel and dc heroes come together to destroy the badguys, pulling the strings, and then everyone is happy, and people won't complain about who wins and who lost. I wish dc and Marvel fans could get along more
It’d be epic to see 3rd party characters like Spawn
I would love if Hawkman and Hawkgirl worked like the TMNT because these too are my favorite couple and I'd love to see them fight together. They still teamup and their alt will be a two person combo. They play slightly differnet giving Hawkman an ake and Hawkgirl the mace.
No cyclops in a game like this would have made me cry.
Insomniac Spiderman vs Arkham Batman would go crazy
It'd be cool if dlc characters for something like this were non big 2 comic characters, radiant black, Scott Pilgrim, invincible, hell even Rick Grimes could work
Great video! Loved seeing how our ideas were diffferent. lets hope one day we see this idea come true!
The inclusion of Mr. Mxyzptlk is a great idea! If not him, I think Batmite would be PERFECT in that roll as well.
As cool as a fighting game could be, I'd like to see a crossover similar to Marvel Ultimate Alliance/X-Men Legends and Justice League Heroes.
Action-RPG with skill trees, team bonuses (and special team-up abilities) for the familiar groups and unexpected pairings, with cool interactions all around.
Idk if hes gonna mention it, but his cameos are basically special heroes from marvel vs capcom 1. So very precedented
In addition to Premier skins, which I've also always thought would be awesome for a crossover superhero fighter, I think the inclusion of clone fighters, or even variations from MKX based on different characters would be awesome.
Since we're already working with 2 different IP's, I think a focus on the multiverse would help as well. That way, you could have alternate versions of characters that would help fit bitter as alternates of the other comic. For instance, Ghost Rider COULD be a Lobos Premier skin (or the other way around), assuming he was included. If not, however, we could have Ghost Rider 2099 be a Wolverine Skin/Alternate, replacing the claws with his chainsaws. Limiting yourself to standard renditions of characters also limits your possibilities.
As a side note, seeing Amalgam characters would also be awesome.
I just want a marvel fighting game I don’t care if it’s a marvel vs dc game or something else just please someone make it
Just play UMVC3 bro its mad hard but the most fun marvel game I ever played
There have been eight Marvel fighting games made by Capcom
X-Men Children of The Atom
X-Men vs. Street Fighter
Marvel Superheroes
Marvel vs. Street Fighter
Marvel vs. Capcom
Marvel vs. Capcom 2
Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3
Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite
@@GalazyProductions I have played them and I don’t like them
you could play contest of champions on mobile
it might be capcom and it might be mvc4, anyways, when the collection comes out try that, and play umvc3 and mvci, theyre all amazing
I'd love to see Star Lord and Peacemaker argue about music
With Wolverine skins, there are a LOT of people that you could reskin Logan as. Laura obviously (and even she has two versions rn, Talon and Wolverine), but also Gabby Kinney (aka scout), Daken, Lady Deathstrike, and even something like Phalanx Wolverine
A wild Woolie sighting here? A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.
Mr. Mxyzptlk and Gwenpool could also maybe be playable dlc characters, With Mxyzptlk having the option of a Batmite premiere skin.
7:05 funny that you mention it, DC comics actually has *four* Fantastic Four equivalents (five if we count Cyborg Superman, which we won't)! The Terrifics and the Doom Patrol, as you mentioned, along with the Challengers Of The Unknown, a superhero team created by Jack Kirby which actually PREDATES the F4 by three years, and the Metal Men, which bear little connection to the F4 besides being science heroes that get around using a funky hovercraft.
Man I love this, all of it, especially the silliness of who the big bads could be!
That “When’s Mahvel” reference hurt my soul 😭
The idea I would love if you at the start choose which universe, Marvel or DC, and then the story is that the other universe has attacked your universe (for some reason) and you spend the game finding more of your superheroes, and villains, to join your team. Then you have the online game where you can meet with friends and fight each other with the characters you have unlocked during the story mode
The skins thing is cool, but this would be a great opportunity for an Echo Fighter type system; pick one or two moves to change on the skins to make them more 'unique', or add an extra passive, such as removing Black Panther's vibranium blast and adding a flechette spray when using Prowler's skin. You could even just take moves from other characters to keep development low (e.g. Prowler is Black Panther with some Batman moves, Deadpool is Deadshot with Wolverine's passive or something)
Your thumbnails are like Mr beasts but 1000% less cursed
You sold me when I saw J Jonah Jamerson on the cameo roster
They should make Almagan Characters. Like 2v2, each Team gets am Marvel and DC Character. Then in the fight they could merge to Supersoldier, Dark Claw, etc.
ruclips.net/video/lDFkTOLfg-o/видео.htmlsi=Z0ui2GN6_zBliv7t
Bruh, you should have called the team up mechanic Sidekicks.
This is actually SICK asf. another idea,id say if they add reed richards or plastic man,they could make them skins of each other,also i feel like if this idea were to actually get made it'd take over a year to make,and it could make over billions of dollars
10:08 I'm glad someone said it, I've always thought that.
If we do get this game, I'd be cool to get some DLC guest characters that aren't from DC or Marvel, like Spawn, Hellboy, and the Ninja Turtles.
A platform fighter in the vein of crossover games like Smash Bros would be our preference! Great writeup 🙌, very well-reasoned points. Subscribed!
You should've had green goblin, since he's spider-mans joker. A dude totally obsessed with ruining his life while also trying to turn him evil
Yup. He's like Joker and Lex Luthor in one.
Love this pitch! I could also see this kind of game working a lot like the Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi games, where there’s a more open space for the fighters and more opportunities for the kinds of moves that can’t be used in an Injustice or Marvel vs Capcom-type game.
Also, based on what you said from 2:35-2:42, I really wanna hear your thoughts on the Injustice games, cons of the story, mechanics, etc.
Agreed. There was a game called Marvel:Rise of the imperfects where you could throw stuff and move more freely, but it was not the best game albeit still fun.
I really like the MvC style, but I do think the game needs its own identity. I would like the gameplay and game feel to be a little more complex and faster than Netherrealm's fighting games (because we have to accept there isn't much difference between Injustice and MK, and that they are kinda slow). Aside from that, I would be interested in how the arcade mode is: who is the final boss, and what do you get at the end? I think Injustice's endings are cool, but there's a certain charm in MvC's endings that I think isn't talked about enough. It's just characters crossing over and I think it's very useful.
Fuckin Goku showing up would break the internet in ways Steve could only fathom.
Don't go down the netherrealm route when capcom literally made better marvel games than NRS made DC games
Bullseye, Jester skins for the Joker
Dr Polaris skin for Magneto
For guests character on the DC side, Ben 10 and The Mask would be cool
For another plot idea, I can't stop thinking in something like this Smash Brothers theory when a kid is just playing with toys of Mario an Kirby and putting into fighting just for the lols, but here you have two kids (one a Marvel fan and the other a Dc fan) and the story mode is just this two saying "Spiderman could beat Green Arrow" "Blue Bettle could beat Wolverine" and that kind of shit
On the topic of DC and Marvel crossovers...
I have wondered why we haven't had a Marvel vs. DC Lego game for years
EDIT: I wrote this before finishing the video
Me too buddy
In its current state, both marvel and dc LEGO games are getting involved with the multiverse, dc supervillains introducing earth 3 and marvel having a secret wars event but with kang. A crossover game would be the perfect next game honeslty
UMvC3: Community Edition is the closest you’re gonna get, champ.
Remember to support your modders, folks! They care more than the corps ever will!
Or MUGEN.
i dont really like playing modded fighting games for some reason unless the mods are purely cosmetic/adding rollback, i have the utmost respect for the modders but I feel like the different design approaches that modded characters has kind of takes me out of it. right now i really hope capcom is able to make a new mvc game since theyre in talks with marvel again, the fighting game division at capcom seems to love the genre just as much as the fans right now
Yesterday I was like “damn I need a troyboy video”. Thank u troyboy
Premiere Grundy for Hulk.
Hulk slams the ground and upheaves pavement for Grundy its a tombstone 💀
I would also want a batman beyond skin and a spiderman 2099 skin just cause it would be really cool and neat
only a few mins in so idk if you talk about this, but the ui for the charachter select could be like a comic book page where, for instance you have daredevil in a slot along with all the marvel charachters, and then you flip the page and where daredevil was on the screen theres nightwing.
Here is the obligated mention of Heroclix, one of the few games where both Marvel and DC have playable pieces and can fight eachother in teams.
Honestly, I’ve thought about this idea a lot, and you’ve pretty much spoken best for beat what I’ve thought about in my head, which is awesome. Honestly, there’s not much I would change about your concept, but I always thought that if a big comic adaptation crossover were to exist, a lot of guest fighters from other comic companies would have to show up too. Characters like Spawn, the Mask, Hellboy, the TMNT, Invincible/Omni-Man, Conan, heck web-comics are rising in popularity and legitimacy so it’s not impossible to see some characters from there (Erma and Nimona are my favorites so I have bias towards them). Finally, I think Dream from Neil Gaiman’s the Sandman would be crazy to play as. It’s hard to see how something THAT big would fit in-story, but I think they could make it work.
I'd honestly just want this game to play as Daredevil... I need more games to play as Daredevil in
THIS IS PERFECT EXCEPT FOR THE FACT THAT THERES NO BANE GRRR
NOTE: NOT MY IDEA OR CONCEPT, I AM BORROWING AN IDEA THE RUclipsR THE4THSNAKE DISCUSSED IN HIS IDEAL CONCEPT FOR AN MORTAL KOMBAT GAME.
What they could do, is try bringing back the Variant system from Mortal Kombat X and combining it with the premier skins.
To try to explain to the best of my abilities, MKX introduced a variant system in order to spice up the gameplay. Basic moves remain the same, punching, kicking, uppercutting etc. However, each character had 3 different variants that had different special moves and slightly altered the characters skin depending on which variant you picked.
For an example, MKX introduced us to Triborg, who came with 4 distinct variants - Sektor, Cyrax, Cyber-Smoke and a secret 4th variant for Cyber Sub-Zero. Each one shared the same base moveset, but also had differing special attacks and combos, all while sharing one spot on the games roster. Netherrealm later did something similar with the TMNT in Injustice 2.
For an example to see how this could work in a Marvel VS DC Game: we have The Hulk who acts as the base fighter, with a set list of special moves, voice lines and arcade endings designed specifically for him. But when you change variants, you change into either Solomon Grundy, Doomsday and The Thing. Again, they share the same basic attacks but each one has unique special attacks, dialogue and arcade endings.
If that sounds like a lot of work, thats because it is, NOR is it the best option and most likely not possible, but personally, I feel like that this way, we can have as many Marvel/DC characters as need be, without making completely new characters and movesets.
A while back i had the idea for a comic book fighting game called "The D List". Which would take lesser known characters from all over comics, not just Marvel and DC and give them a place to shine.
Guess it would be kinda like a western Jump Force but exclusively with D List characters.
I know this might never happen so don't take what I say too seriously. I would LOVE a Lego DC and Marvel game. Imagine Darkseid and Thanos as the main villains and you play as characters like Batman, Spider-Man, Superman, Captain America and many more. Some fun character interactions, a light hearted and fun story, you could do a lot with it
Okay but like what WOULD happen if Antman went up superman’s butt and grew really big? Cause like superman is super invulnerable. So like would his colon just crush antman? Is he squishy on the inside? Would antman wear superman’s indestructible body as armor? What are the physics here? I think the only logical option is that antman gets crushed in superman’s colon.
That thumbnail is lit🔥🔥
superman casually one shotting everybody
“Still loses to prep time!” Batman fans probably
@@dc7981 i’m a diehard batman fan and everybody that uses prep time as an excuse clearly doesn’t read comics but that’s not to underestimate his power either. supes still wipes tho lol
7:37 random but I loved that you used the sejic art for harley
I will say, Doomsday’s backstory is the most metal thing ever.
3:02 A Woolie appears in the wild!
Imagine the visuals / art direction of the game having the golden age comic look
That would be insane. Imagine if you could pick different artists for the characters like Jim Lee, Kirby, or Alex Ross.
I actually really like how the tag team mecanic is incorporated in a game like skull girls, you can select 1-3 characters and they are buffed or nerfed depending how many you chose. (Personally I wold incorporate a gimmick like mario kart tag team that gives names to the group depending on who you chose, like Superman, Batman and WW would be “trinity”, Batman and Robin “dynamic duo”, and like Joker and Deadpool be something like “nightmare standup routine”)
The idea to have 36 fighters and each fighter have a main designated fighter, but alternates skins that are unique and have unique interaction but retain the exact same moveset is so goddamn brilliant to me, such a great idea considering a lot of crossovers exist and you bolster the rosters without adding and changing too much, love that idea
So the plot would be like what happened in that one spider man show where the collector takes heroes and villains to fight others in a big tournament
a DC x Marvel fighting game would surely be the most profitable in the whole genre
Evil superman is a cool idea but it's only been done right by the 2000s justice league show
His costume was also epic.
7:49 Bro really said Deadpool came first 💀
For some reason I’ve been wanting a Spider man plus Batman series, weather it be comic, show, cinematic universe, and game series. Especially when you consider how similar some of there villains are and how they could interact, imagine a storyline of Clayface and Sandman fighting to get the cure for what happened to their bodies, imagine a cat women and Black Cat team up, imagine a king pin and Penguin war, in fact this crossovers finally could be a Carnagized Joker
I refuse to believe that when it comes to the love and care that a project like this needs that it should be handled by Arc-system works
The amount of love they put into DBFZ is so potent that you can feel it
All the refrences and the extremely fun gameplay style they are known for would be perfect
