Thematically Dvorah and Blue Beetle are basically the same thing.
Pulling weird bug shit out of nowhere.

Blue Beetle at least has fireballs and Baraka arms I guess.

How is he a reskin of D'Vorah? lol

He has attacks using insect appendages because he is also an insect inspired character like D'Vorah. We saw very little, but I'm pretty sure D'vorah doesn't have air blaster projectiles or a charge move that propels her off the ground at the opponent or spiked orbs on her hands. I somehow doubt Blue Beetle has a puddle swarm of insects or acid based attacks etc.

A lot of the complaining just sounds like major reaching.
 
I'm actually somewhat disappointed about the "tournament mode" thing.

Not to say I wanted the gear system to be in tournaments as they explained it- but I was kinda hoping for a "Tournament friendly" gear system that was tweaked to work correctly in a competitive environment, rather than the "just turn it off" cop-out.

Having preset "loadouts" for characters in tournaments coulda been like a sorta-variation system. Give an extra element to balancing the game because tweaking gear is much easier than tweaking characters.

Get your guns on. Sheriff is back.
Im actually curious about what modes will be announced later. I see trailers like this and I cant help but wish for a tag mode to return because I'd love to play both in a match.

I'd probably be cool with just simi-reskinning her, or some general overlap, but everything you said sounds valid or like something I want. I'm thinking I'm going to be happy no matter what. I don't know anything about BB or that I wanted him in the game, but now I do. Let me at that bug.

I've been worried that tournament mode is going to feel like playing a watered down version of the game. That is unless the gear system doesn't actually bring anything to the table that is going to be missed when removed. If that is the case, then I'm not sure what to make of it. Wait and see I guess is the only real thing to do. I do think 2 or 3 presets would have been a good alternative for bringing in that variation quality, but if we get a truckload of sweet DC characters then that may be OK too.

#OFFTOPIC

** IN COMING RANT **



what do people see in that anorexic girl. She is a poster child for what is wrong with female sexual identity. she even admits to "self-starving"... I mean look at the new DC poster...



Dose that stick figure look like wonder woman to you? They even had to make the armour have bigger tits, my boyfriend has bigger boobs than this girl.



And before all you SJW get on my case about commenting on her body... just think about the work load people like Hue Jackman has to go through for Wolverine and Henry Cavill for Superman. You think Dwayne Johnson is getting cast as Black Adam and his physique is not being taken into account. The physical appearance of these characters matter and should be respected, and they are for the most part.. accept when it comes to women, cause god forbid we do not have a skinny model type on screen. I mean even Amanda Waller who was a perfect chance for Hollywood to hire a really fat women for a change is not done right.

WW is such an awesome character she is awesome DESPITE Gal Gadot not because of her. She is just not WW, not even close.
What you said is fucked up, sorry. She might not fit the physical requirements, but why the fuck do you need to body shame her?

I always felt dvorah was missing antennae on her head. It's like she cut them off for some reason. And her accent, waaay too much cockroach not enough ant in that dialect.
You say that like there aren't multipage threads on multiple boards discussing the validity of Batman's fight stance.

I get that, but it seems so weird to have Superman and Supergirl hovering around but the red lantern and WW don't.

Also seriously NRS, please make it so you can actually hit their feet!
its actually pretty canonical, in the comics atrocitus never floats he flies then stands on the ground and walks, wonder woman typically walks too but flies when necessary, whereas people like Superman and Black Adam almost always float, BA makes it a point to not be standing on the ground lol so i dont mind it

So many people hear the word "Amazon" and immediately think Wonder Woman is supposed to be this hulking brute. @Jynks Go and read her comic origins, she's never been this huge bruiser and she wasn't even about "girl power" until like the 60's or some shit. Prior to that she was actually this sort of cult soft S&M character where she was always getting tied up in bondage by her damn lasso.

This whole "Paragon of virtuous womanhood anti-misogyny" shit had to be retconn'd in because she was so flagrantly the OPPPOSITE. I mean she still wears a completely impractical costume because "comic books". Besides if we're talking lore, Wonder Woman gets her strength from magical greek mythological hoobadajoo so it's not like you're going to run into her at Planet Fitness doing her squat routine. It's innate physical power.

For a while to a LOT of people casually familiar with Wonder Woman, this is what she looked like:


So Gal Gadot is fine as Wonder Woman. I just hope the movie doesn't suck.

I don't mind, but it just feels off to me. I certainly know the cannon, but this is literally a fight.

Plus, 95% of the reason I even commented is the hitbox issues, I hope people scream this from the mountaintops to get them set ahead of time.

i agree about the hitbox issues, as someone who played green lantern in IGAU the amount of b1 whiffing on WoWo/Supes/Martian etc was annoying af and part of why i didnt think it was the best normal in the game
