I hope they can find a fine line between Deadpool being funny and not saying the same line over and over again until you want to carve out your ear drums with a spoon.
Pretty sure this game is going to have amazingly bad sales, which is one the reasons it's being released during the summer doldrums. The gameplay is going to have as responsive as a 60f fighting game and be deep as hell to have a remote chance of breaking out of it's hur hur deadpool makes fart jokes and touches boobies niche range. It's pretty obvious the team "gets" Deadpool completely even beyond the writing, but seriously the character and the premise is pretty much 100% meme territory, which is pretty much the opposite "will attract continual casual sales over the quarter".
It could be the next Duke Nukem Forever. Minus the long wait.
I don't really have high hopes for this :I
I'm with the above comments I see this starting out at a $60 USD game and dropping down to $20 or less shortly after.
