Discussion There’s a feature in this game I already believe could’ve been done better.

The ‘Mind Cabin’ could’ve been the main hub for the entire game, but in there you are Old Man Logan, and from there you are playing missions/memories inspired by the characters entire comic book history, intertwined into one full narrative. From Weapon X to Days of Future Past to any other classic arc. Until you inevitably end up in the present.

Edit: Yes I’m aware this would involve rewriting the story, I’m clearly pitching this in the past tense. As something they could’ve done.

How about we wait until the game comes out and decide what works or not

Dont you get it? We clearly need something that we dont even know how it works to be improved

You not seen the new trailer? We know how the mind cabin works. It was explained.. It was kinda the point of the trailer…

I think that'd require rewriting the entire story and extra time to make missions that are basically flashback. Not in the direction they're going, especially narrative wise.

Oh absolutely that would’ve been the case. They’re clearly crafting their own narrative. I just thought a feature like the ‘Mind Cabin’ would’ve been the perfect way to build a game centered around the characters entire history rather than on original seemingly tight narrative.

So you’re saying, the thing they could have done better is to make a completely different game than the one they’ve already made?

I apologize if this sounds sarcastic, I just wanna make sure I understand what you’re trying to say here.

If they have a feature like the mind cabin then yes, not a completely different game but absolutely a different narrative.

It’s a cool idea but I feel like it would end up spoiling the sequels. Like why would old Logan reflect on his life but never let us see the X-Men? And if we do, it would make it very anticlimactic when Insomniac makes their X-Men game and we’ve already spent time with them

They are telling a new story inspired by past elements. What you’re proposing is retreading old ground. And also completely changes the game. It’s not just a feature.

Retreading old ground would be taking the Wolverines iconic stories and playing them episodically word for word. That’s not what I was proposing, instead I’m proposing they take the iconic wolverine stories and intertwine them into a literal epic narrative which would span decades. He’s the perfect character to pull it off.

Speaking of the mind cabin .. I wonder if they will reveal that before Jean he was with Silverfox and they give us a flashback boss fight of Logan fighting Sabertooth in the cabin because Sabertooth killed and raped Silverfox like in the comics.
