We’ve already had a thread on love for Peggy’s art – I think we should also commend D3/Demi for the wonderfully done and poignant load screen for the latest patch. Kudos!
I like it. It’s nice. Better than nice. A load screen that is pure comic eye candy. Now if no one mentions the most hated…#longest despised…load screen this will be a great post.
I’m going on record as saying that this the best load screen ever. I have expressed my love for Peggy before. Here on the forum and on Line as well. So much on Line that I think I’m starting to bug people
. However, I promise there is a reason for my love of this character. And it’s not just because her abilities are great. It is simply because of her art work.
“What’s so special about her art?” you might ask. Well I’ll tell you. I love Peggy’s art because she looks exactly like my wife, (just not 7 months pregnant). Even the hair color and style. Of course Peggys hair style and my wife’s is slightly different, but only a little, it is very, very close. For me, this is not just a new character, but a combination of two things I really love. Not only is the Peggy Carter wallpaper my background on my phone now, (it was a pic of my wife walking out of the ocean from when we went to the beach last year, but she made me take that one down for obvious reasons
), but Peggy is now on the load screen for MPQ. I hope this one stays up for a while.
And yes, I know Peggy isn’t real, it’s just a game, etc… But the likeness is just uncanny.
And finally, a big shout out to artist Jae Tsai. Who if I’m understanding the last PW3 podcast, will be leaving. If Peggy is to truly be your last, then you will be leaving us on high note. She is, imo, your Sistine Chapel, your Mona Lisa. You will be missed, but i wish good luck in where ever you end up.
I gotta say, for a non-American citizen like me, I’d be happy if the devs decided that 5 versions (2Cap, 3Cap, Flaptain, Peggy, 5Cap) of Captain CountryFlag are enough. Even more now that one of the Captains is a British person
. We get it, America, you are great.
As Another non-American Citizen, I realize Captain America is a big deal in the Marvel Universe, so by rights he should have solid representation in the game.
And Peggy is leaps and bounds better than the Cap variants they came up with for other games, so I see no reason to complain about her.
Meh. People complain about too many Wolverines, too many Hulks or too many Spideys, so Cap is my target of choice. I’m just not a fan of Captain America as a character, though I do realize he’s one of the most popular Marvel heroes (and of course, most of the fanbase is American). That doesn’t change the fact that I’m ok with stopping the Cap count at 5.
And Peggy’s art is above average, but her red power animation is awkward. There are better drawn characters in the game. Again, just my opinion.
