Marvel Vs. Capcom: Infinite Reviews
The biggest leap that Marvel Vs. Capcom: Infinite has taken in comparison to the older installments is in the addition of gameplay elements that allow new players to enjoy the events of the title without getting frustrated while also providing the opportunity for more seasoned players to take advantage of their skills better with a roster of 30 playable characters and multiplayer competitions that don't have any technical problems. However, the game lacks a few popular characters and its campaign mode does not advance the story very much.

After Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite released, many critics blamed and some admired it. Newly added features and changing battle system to 2 vs 2 tag team fighting helped the game to present decent gameplay and amazed all of its followers. On the other hand, some reviewers criticized the game for its poor and unacceptable visuals. Yet, in my opinion, Marvel vs Capcom: infinite is still a valuable game carrying its unique charms.

Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite is one of the most disappointing fighting games in a long time.
On the surface MvCI looks bland and lazy, but once you dive in you will find a fighting game that can stand with any other out there.
After spending a fair bit of time with the many fighting games that have released this year, it’s fair to say Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite is both slacking and lacking in comparison.
If I was to score the game purely from a gameplay perspective, it would pass with high scores and party poppers an all, but as an overall package and almost dead upon arrival online community, Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite is not only a huge missed opportunity
The only thing Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite has going for it is solid gameplay. The artstyle unfortunately suffers from cringe-worthy character design, and there isn't much replayability after players have finished the story and mastered every character via the mission mode.
Marvel Vs Capcom: Infinite is one of the best fighters of the year on a pure gameplay standpoint, the Story Mode may be utter guff and the visuals are incredibly mediocre but when it comes down to it, the core combat and online component are so addictive that you can sink hours into the characters and stones and still be finding new combos and set-ups.
I enjoyed the single player campaign for the most part, even though I whinged all the way through it. However, the lacking roster, annoying sound, unimpressive graphics and visual aesthetic, crappy boss fight design, auto combo problem, and power of Infinity Stone spamming mean I doubt I'll ever choose to bust this out to play with my mates when I have them over for a game night. Most of the Capcom characters left me cold (except Dante, sigh, you handsome rogue, you) and even the Marvel characters have some weird choices. All of the style and humorous panache of MVC3 are absent, and in general this was a solid 'meh' of a game.
Good story, good gameplay. Poor technical level.

Marvel vs Capcom Infinite’s Infinity Stones powered gameplay is truly remarkable, gamers will absolutely love the fast and highly controllable battle engine. Not all is great, it is a big shame that the visuals look undercooked and that the presentation is extremely dull.
Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite will not vault Capcom back to the top of the fighting game mountain, but what's there proves the company still know how to compete in an increasingly crowded genre and is generally a step in the right direction.
What truly sells this game is the gameplay, it’s quite possibly one of the most fun titles I’ve ever had the pleasure of playing since Killer Instinct graced my XBOX One on release day.
While the gameplay and netcode are absolutely fantastic, the visuals, UI, and roster are painfully lacking.
Overall I can’t help but feel disappointed in this game. It may never live up to the legend status of MvC3. Its definitely making waves and people are enjoying the game competitively but the ugly characters, shitty story, lack of any longevity and downright awful roster won’t keep my attention for long. I don’t even find joy in saying, “WHEN’S MAHVEL?” because now it’ll bring back memories of this game.
Poor visuals, a weak roster and an awkward story mean that the best parts of this game don't come through at first. The foundation is there, but unfortunately Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite falls short of what it needs to be great.
“With the exclusion of the X-men, the game feels like it’s missing some of the charm it once had”
Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite is an addition to a series that adds deeper gameplay mechanics at the removal of some of the characters and aesthetic that made the game popular in the first place.
Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite is a hard game to recommend, especially if you’re just looking for some casual fun. The best decision you can make is wait for further updates to the game and spend your money elsewhere.
With this new episode, Marvel vs Capcom Infinite retains its core elements while drastically modifying certain gameplay features in order to seduce as many newcomers as possible. While it might lose some of its core identity, the series gains however in a boost of accessibility, but I wish more work was done on the visual side of the game, especially when it comes to its roster which can be considered a little weak in comparison to previous entries in the franchise.
