So um. God, I sound like such a hipster, don't I? Well, yeah, I've loved this rather dark character for a long time and I think this game led to a lot of other people liking him too, but they were a bit misinformed by the game's lazy writing and lack of tension. Please read Deadpool comics. They're really good. Please?

  • "hear me out, give me a chance" WHAT ABOUT MY UNCLE, DID YOU GIVE HIM A CHANCE?

    Could be worse. X-Men Origins: Wolverine was my introduction to Deadpool.
  • @Ryanthedoctor11
    I love how when he mentions Minecraft in games WITHOUT story, he puts up an image of the game Minecraft STORY Mode

    I’ve just realized that Deadpool is a lot like comedians. Deadpool acts happy and cheesy but he’s actually depressed under his mask and jokes. Like Howie Mendel said, comedians’ jokes come from a dark place and uses comedy to ignore the darkness
  • This is how I feel about modern Harley Quinn. DC turned her into meme pool because they saw how successful Deadpool was.
  • Deadpool according to the comics: a tragic and nuanced character using humor as a coping mechanism Deadpool according to the movies: a sarcastic crazy person with a heart of gold underneath the mean spirited attitude Deadpool according to the game, cosplay conventions, Hot Topic, the internet, merchandising, and the overall general public: that Taco Tuesday shirt I rarely wear
  • I interpret the game as being all in DP’s head - it’s his “happy place” he goes to where he doesn’t have to deal with the forces that shaped his life: even the very first scenes in the game are about DP trying to negotiate the details of creating a game - the game we play is ultimately the product of the events of the first scenes.

    My favorite DP story is when he saves a girl from taking her life by hanging out with her for one day and at the end he drops her off at the hospital, that story really shows his human side and how tragic he really is because he understands her mentality more than anyone.

    I think deadpool 2 does a nice job of balancing the suicidal lonelieness and heart of him and also has a nice ammount of humor

    I actually found out about Deadpool through Marvel ultimate alliance when I was younger and just liked his gameplay and style which quickly turned him into my favourite marvel character
  • @josephkeen7224
    The funny thing is that Daniel Way knows why Deadpool stopped using the teleporter, because Deadpool brings it up in a comic that Daniel wrote.
  • @TheLordNovo
    This is the best way to break the game down- It’s a good representation of Deadpool’s sense of humor, not Deadpool as a human being. It nails his sense of humor, but makes his sense of humor his entire being, which we know is not even close to him. It gets facets of Deadpool right, but incorrectly makes those facets his whole being. Now, I’m gonna give credit to Nolan North for nailing the character he was given in the script, because he does a hell of a job, but that’s about it. The game is basically a comedy routine, which it does well, but they’ve yet to get the REAL character

    Games without a story: Minecraft. (Shows picture of Minecraft Story Mode) I'm just nitpicking, thought it was funny.
  • @darkhero-3097
    "Yeah he makes bad jokes" shows Deadpool saying something about Bomb-Squad Clever Xavier, clever!
  • @Courier_333
    My first exposure to deadpool was the Hulk vs Wolverine animated movie... I actually loved that depiction
  • This game is literally designed for you to have fun and laugh. There's nothing more to it. This game was absolutely epic
  • @foxygrandpa9910
    This game doesn't have deadpool becoming the bomb squad.0/10

    1:31 WHAT ABOUT MY UNCLE!? DID YOU GIVE HIM A CHANCE!?, DID YOU!?

    Thank the lord for Ryan Reynolds Deadpool. Between the first and second movie it looks like they've brought back some of the emotional complexity if his character. I really liked the arcs with Vanessa, Russell and Cable. He seems to have overtaken this Deadpool by far now, though the general public still have memepool fresh in their minds.
