Ok. Just… it’s a problem I have with how Multiversus has designed characters in general. Batman, Reindog, and now Joker… WHY DO THEY HAVE PROJECTILE NORMALS? Like seriously, it feels sooo clunky. Projectiles are specials, melee attacks are normals. It’s that way for a reason.

Don’t bring up mega man! I don’t like it with him either.
I also do wish there was some way to just… know what characters were coming and not have to just go by teasers.

I'm going to say something everyone thinks: someone in the Multiversus team is down bad for Velma.

We just learned about two more characters. Let them sink in first.

I finally organized my backlog. I am determined to clear the thing as soon as possible and also praying to Arceus that no games I care about come out before Legends Z-A

They’re strangely down bad for Velma.

Not even the police car controversy stopped them from making her a poster girl.

I mean my dad has a car that's 23 years old and it has a bunch of structural problems and can't pass an emmissions test but he insists he's gonna fix it instead of selling it like the entire family said he should.

Well idk how the repairs went but I can tell you the check engine light is still on so clearly it hasn't been enough.

God if marceline was finished then why not make her a launch character and save BG for later? They really like that nanna I guess.
Because banana guard wasn’t leaked and because it would show everyone, that nothing is fair game and not every reveal has to be a safe one.

Thst would be my guess anyway. That and it keeps people coming back by adding one of the most popular requests a little later.

My dad's car is 27 years old and it's doing surprisingly well.

He probably spent more money on repairs than you could buy a new car at this point but it has a lot of sentimental value for him. It's crazy how long some old cars can last.

Yeah it still runs but it has plenty of issues and it's really not worth imo, but my dad is huge on keeping sentimental stuff. I don't get it.

I will say. Multiversus’s launch lineup is pretty solid. I would have done Neo before Agent Smith but at least this means he’ll probably be coming soon.

I do think it is missing two things though. Gandalf was in a tonne of the original leaks, and Lord of the Rings is a big WB property. I know some legal stuff happened with him but I really think they should have prioritized getting that sorted out and getting at least ONE LotR character in at launch. Hopefully it ends up happening later.

The other thing I feel it’s missing is Daffy Duck. Bugs is their Mario (from a marketing standpoint anyway), so without him it feels like they’re missing their Luigi. And I feel like he, again, should have been prioritized. Again, hope he comes later.

"the trunk is stuck again, please bring the car in"
"Okay okay"
---
"The trunk is stuck and wont open and the trunk open button doesnt work, please send it in"
"I have an appointment"
---
" The lights are staying on, the trunk button wont work, the trunk wont latch or open, this is a safetly hazard if the car doors are jammed and we need to exit out the trunk, please, Dad-"

Yes, Gandalf was on the initial leak screenshots. Seemed to be fully done and then the Toiken estate got involved and shut it down.

Might be possible they get the rights again though with the new movie coming out

Speaking of rights issues, is Jason our first third party character in Multiversus?

Yeah, Arya is based on a book, and LeBron James is a real guy but their portrayals in GoT and Space Jam are owned by WB iirc.

oomfie unattended in the CoD lobby what will she do
Damn, Aerial is like the one suit that would pique my interest the most. Still not playing Call of Duty for it, but they are bringing out the big guns. At least my sweet baby boy Guntank is unaffected.

I just hope this is an omen that when Gundam comes to Fortnite we will get Witch From Mercury stuff.

TheMightyP TheMightyP Why would you have an avatar for that abomination of an incarnation of Velma? Come on dude you're better than that.

Because it bombed.
First of all, chill, I'm pretty sure Mighty is just meming.

And second of all, whoa I'm genuinely surprised that Fall Guy ended up bombing. I got SO MUCH advertising for it wherever I went. What happened, did it really stink or something?

I thought it was a solid flick. The story wasn't much to write about but it didn't take itself too seriously and had great stunt action.

Friday the 13th is owned by WB via New Line, there's just rights issues pertaining to the original movie iirc

The advertising was exceptionally poor.
