In case you don't already know, Marvel's Avengers is basically going to be Crystal Dynamics' superhero take on Destiny. It's a loot-based Game as a Service in every way, and its latest trailer only served to back that up further. Gear scores are aplenty and cosmetic skins are all over the place, but at least the campaign promises to offer some sort of cinematic Marvel experience.
It's going to offer two different types of missions -- Hero Missions and Warzone Missions. The former are single player levels which feature various superheroes as you put the Avengers back together, while the latter is a co-op focused series of missions which change based on your team size and gear score. In a group of up to four players, you can adopt a specific playstyle to get the job done. You'll then earn rewards based on your performance.
It definitely seems like a simplified version of Destiny, doesn't it? You've got the main campaign that you'll probably blitz through in a handful of days, while Warzone Missions sound a lot like Bungie's Strikes. We're still interested in this unique take on the Avengers, but we can't help but groan when we see multiple currencies displayed in the corner of the title's latest trailer.

It's gonna be weird to see four players picking the same character in multiplayer.
Speaking of multiplayer, I don't think they've showed any multiplayer gameplay footage, yet.
It really looks bad or are these old screens?
I was getting my hopes up after seeing recent footage, but yeah this killed all my enthusiasm for this game.
This is a definite wait and see game.
No thanks. I'm already playing Destiny 2.
I'll definitely be waiting for the reviews before committing to this one. After Destiny 2 and The Division 2, I think I'm done with the GaaS model.
I'm most interested in finding out whether it's a great as a single player game, or whether it really ought to be played with others. If it's a hard emphasis on co-op, then I'll pass.
Ah so all the early trailers were from the cinematic solo game. Most likely a 10-15hr experience to get you into the heavy microtransaction based co-op.
Ok. Hard pass. Not GaaS for me. I told people that Square was hiding something and that is why I never had hopes for this game when they were announced to have the license. I was right.
Oh. Hmm.
Yeah, nah.
My interest in this title, which was never high to begin with, continues to wane.
