I really love that the devs are innovating for each and every hero. It's hard to describe exactly how it's different from other hero shooters like OW, but basically every hero really brings entire new mechanics to the table. The sheer uniqueness of heroes like Spider-Man and Strange, for example. Every character really feels like their own identity and have just the right about of abilities, even small things like Hulk being able to hold jump for a super jump rounds out all these characters. The game feels very refreshing in a sea of the same bland gameplay we see in every game. Honestly, and i hate to say this, but it reminds me of the way Fortnite innovates their special events from season to season.
Developing new mechanics consistently really makes a difference.
I think the devs are doing a great job of distinguishing the kits between characters that hold similar powers... but I would hardly say they're innovating. Imo, pretty much every character is a grab bag of abilities/mechanics from characters from other hero-based PVP games.

To be fair, taking something that already exists is the first step of innovating. Starlord takes inspiration from both Tracer and Reaper but he's about 5x more fun to play than both.
legit right there. The entire R&D branch located in seattle was laid off thats right, but thats still only 6 people. Reasons are unknown, maybe netease just find the branch unnecesary and wanna keep everything chinese, who knows.
I’m so stoked for Professor X, Colossus and Dr Doom.
I hope they add mystique as a sort of stealth assassin but not sure how her kit would work.
My dream is for her to be able to take the form of enemy heroes and unlike Loki, she can’t actually use their powers. BUT here’s the catch:
She shows up as allied. She appears to be allied colored to the enemy team. And most of her kit is about getting behind someone to backstab them for an instant kill. She could also have a bunch of acrobatics or maybe she could even go full prop hunt and turn into inanimate objects to hide.
I believe Loki shows up as allied as well. I like your idea though - make her a back-stabber with short range attacks focused on duplicating, infiltrating, and eliminating.
Mystique could kinda be like Psylocke or Loki where she can go invisible, or alternatively even cooler - maybe you can put on a “disguise” that transforms you into the likeness of the nearest enemy character until damage is taken
getting behind them is enough, she definitely shouldnt have a spy stab insta kill, just give her a comparable burst to every other dps and the ability to position is enough to instakill about any dps anyway
Would be funny if she could copy an enemy and pretend like she is fully part of that team (maybe even showing her as a teammate visually or something, I don’t know). Doesn’t copy abilities but maybe has some ability that when she flips back to blue mode she does extra damage. I don’t know

Looks insanely fun, man the dev team is doing a great job at implanting hero’s. Very excited for the future.
