captain america: civil war

Fans of Marvel’s not so jolly green giant will probably be slightly disappointed with the upcoming Captain America: Civil War as, despite starring many other superheroes including other Avengers, the Hulk will not be appearing at all. What’s worse is that he was planned to be in it.

When asked why his character was cut, Mark Ruffalo, who has played the role of both Bruce Banner and the Hulk in the previous Avengers movies, said “The reason is too great to be revealed in this movie. I was in the script but then they removed my character. They don’t want to reveal where he is and why. I don’t even know if Hulk will be back soon.”

Given the Hulk’s position at the end of Age of Ultron, it’s probably not all that surprising to not see him turn up. While Marvel has no plans to give him another shot at a solo outing, we can at least expect him to return to crack some skulls in Infinity War when Thanos decides to rear his ugly head.

Captain America: Civil War will be released in May 2016 and is an adaptation of the Civil War story arc from the comics where the superhero community was split down the middle following the introduction of the Superhero Registration Act, which meant superheroes had to sign up to work for the government or be considered criminals. This led to an all-out war between the Pro-Registration movement, led by Iron Man, and the Anti-Registration movement, led by Captain America.

The film will see Chris Evans and Robert Downey Jr return to reprise their roles as Cap and Iron Man respectively. Several other characters will be returning, including Black Widow, Hawkeye, War Machine, Falcon, the Winter Soldier, Vision and even Ant-Man. It will also introduce Black Panther and Spider-Man to the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Ant-Man is probably regretting agreeing to the superhero thing.

ReFantazio Takes a Different Approach to Romance, Setting Itself Apart from the Persona Games

Atlus’ highly anticipated RPG, Metaphor: ReFantazio, appears to incorporate familiar systems reminiscent of the developer’s acclaimed Persona series. The game features turn-based battles that heavily rely on exploiting enemy weaknesses. Additionally, players have the ability to summon warrior spirits during combat. However, the most significant aspect of this game, which will be discussed in this article, is the bonding system. Through this system, players can spend time with important characters and gain deeper insights into their personalities and stories.

In contrast to the Persona games, the bonding system ends at that point. Unfortunately, players will be unable to pursue romantic relationships with their beloved waifus, which may come as a disappointment to those who have developed strong feelings for Hulkenberg, the party’s charismatic red-haired elven knight.

According to Siliconera, the absence of romance came up during a recent question and answer session. Atlus emphasized the continued opportunity to develop meaningful relationships with your allies while also introducing additional narratives through substories. In addition, familiarizing yourself with the supporting characters will grant you access to new archetypes, which serve as the game’s character classes.

In the Persona games, romance is not obligatory; rather, it serves as a means to customize your playthrough. However, it is quite unexpected that Metaphor has chosen not to pursue such a venture, considering the significant amount of discussion it typically generates!

Were you anticipating any romantic elements in Metaphor? If you’re not satisfied with your pre-order, feel free to share your thoughts in the comments section below.

It appears that many

are eagerly anticipating the launch of the highly anticipated PS5 exclusive, Stellar Blade. Shift Up, the developer, has shared a lengthy video showcasing the “secrets” found in the physical box of the game for PS5. From what we can gather, these secrets include a reversible cover/dust jacket and a download code for cosmetic items.

We must clarify that while we do appreciate the variant cover, it may be more appealing than the game’s standard art. However, it is not something we would typically classify as a “secret.”. However, what’s interesting is that Shift Up has confirmed through the comments section that this will be the case in all regions. Additionally, the visually striking action RPG will remain uncensored worldwide.

It’s refreshing to witness a developer going the extra mile for physical collectors, and it’s evident that the developer is determined to leave a favorable mark in the console realm. Stellar Blade is set to make its highly anticipated debut this Friday, April 26th, exclusively on the PS5.
