I love Villainous, despite not really being a Disney person. But I have yet to convince almost anyone among my various gaming groups that it's a worthwhile endeavor. I think it suffers from the Root problem, which is that people are paying so much attention to what they have to do that they're not really getting a feel for what other people are doing, which leads to it being derided as "multiplayer solitaire" and/or makes people feel like someone won without anyone else able to affect that victory, and so on. If you can get people to play multiple games, you get over that hump, but getting the same people to play one game (of anything) is an ongoing challenge.



On the Marvel end... eh. I stopped reading superhero comics almost 30 years ago because the majority of it felt played out to me. I've now been through two dozen Marvel films and feel very little compulsion to ever see another one (I haven't even seen Endgame.) Been there, done that. I'll gladly keep following the Disney game (I think the inclusion of Steamboat Willie and the art approach they've used for him is kinda brilliant), but I really don't have much interest in Thanos, et al.
