How would a DC Rivals even work when exposure to most of their characters is minimal for normies? Sure, you've got the big 3 (Bats, Supes, WW) and maybe some other main JLs like Flash and Martian... but then what? Who is getting excited for Booster Gold, Deadman, and Circe?Marvel has had years to warm people up to the idea of a talking racoon + tree duo, but who is gonna be raving over some creature commandos?
DC literally only has Batman, and even his popularity is tenuous worldwide
No one actually cares about Wonder Woman, numales just pretend to show how not sexist they are.
>>743259346that's not really true though there are quite a lot of known DC characters to even normies.>supes, supergirl, bats, ww, mm, gl, flash, mr terrific, peacemaker, shazam>luthor, joker, harley quinn, poison ivy, catwoman, king shark, reverse flash, zodd, deathstroke, grodd>Who is getting excited for Booster Gold, Deadman, and Circe?who the fuck knew anything about squirrel girl, magik, jeff or cloak and nigga??? you want them to be excited about characters then make them exciting or hot
>>743259346There have been plenty of movies, shows, cartoons, and video games, even in more recent years, that would get fans interested in such a game. And on top of that, there have been multiple Marvel characters that have gotten a boost in popularity from Rivals, because they were obscure and unknown until the devs went "hey this goofy thing could be a fun character, let's toss it in."The problem wouldn't be lack of interest in the characters, the problem would be DC going follow-the-leader with Marvel yet again for the thousandth time this century.
I wonder right now does anyone actually care about Marvel Rivals? It gives me the same vibe of when people spammed Overwatch here....except it was just porndumps. And they feel like chink shill bot engagement farms.
>>743259346DC is crushing Marvel in comic sales right now.
>>743259346Marvel Rivals works first and foremost because of the eye candy. If DC Rivals had been made and had the same decisions regarding design, the same thing happens; it doesn't matter how recognizable the cast is, as long as it's entertaining enough and you've got a large scale of hot characters, you'll keep people in enough to play. Similar philosophy to most asian gacha games.>Who is getting excited for Booster Gold, Deadman, and Circe?You can say this same thing about 60% of the Marvel Rivals roster. Do you really think the wider population gave two shits about Jeff the Land Shark or Emma Frost before the game?
Just make the roster 90% Batman characters. Who gives a shit about anyone else besides the main Justice League members or something? I vote for Batwoman.
>>743259346>Who is getting excited for Booster GoldMe
>>743259346>Who is getting excited for Booster Gold, Deadman, and Circe?Who is getting excited for Angela, Elsa Bloodstone, and Luna Snow?
>>743259346Just do the Batman rogues. There's enough for a full interesting shooter roster.
>Angela>Cloak and Dagger>Devil Dinosaur>Elsa Bloodstone>Jeff>Luna Snow>Magik>The Hood>White FoxAll of these are complete literal whos to normies. A DC game could do the same. If you’ve got Batman you can cram all the nobodies you want in the roster.
>>743260448>I wonder right now does anyone actually care about Marvel Rivals?Its one of one of the most popular MP games in the worldso yeah I guess
>>743259346>for normies?Cartoons like JLU helped expose normies to more "obscure" DC characters like The Question and Etrigan.The CW capeshit soaps gave normies Green Arrow, Flash, as well as characters from Legends of Tomorrow like Heatwave, Steel, and The Atom.It's fucking wild how you complain about how this shit would reach out to normies when you have fuck all knowledge of what garbage normies have already been exposed to.
>>743260228Hell, Teen Titans (the normal animated show, Go, and Zone porn) basically made Starfire, Raven, and Jinx household names.
