"makes her backside visually pleasing to look at" - Dorito God 2023
Thor's a weird case where it's both a name and a title. Like, yes, his name is Thor Odinson, but Thor in universe is treated like a mantle, with many people, Jane, Erik Masterson, I think a few others, taking up the title of Thor as a superhero name, while keeping their birth name as their secret identity. They could've called Jane Thordis as a nod to that oddly prophetic What If? issue, but I personally never liked that name.
She really could have had a cool superhero name without taking thor's name and they could have just used the name she had in what if
@@shadowwolf2564they are so bad at making new characters
@@Jiub_SNI think the worst case of that is with Amadeus Cho. He was a smart kid who could've been his own hero but instead got turned into Hulk 2. At least in that one show he adorned the mantle of Iron-Spider and filled the role of their tech head.
@@shadowwolf2564like he said, it’s a mantle and a name. It’s always been like that in his publication history
Can’t forget about beta ray bill
I felt whiplash when you showed us EMH Thor, I was so shocked to see a good Thor design in this video
Thor's starter costume looks like there was an emergency while his real costume was at the dry cleaner's, so he had to make one out of random crap he had lying around
this video more than your other ones makes me really wish this game just had a different art style. Like you said the realistic movie costumes are the only good ones
Personally.... I think Ultimate Thor having gauntlets makes sense. Since in the myths the thing that allowed Thor to even hold his hammer was a pair of gauntlets. The hammer, the belt, and gauntlets are all part of a set that give Thor's his powers.
And in a storyline where the twist is that his powers are being granted to him by tech mirroring those items.... it's kinda weird that his design dropped one of them.
I can understand that viewpoint, but I still disagree with it. This is a long one:
The word "gauntlets" as I used it here is technically incorrect. Gauntlets are a type of armored glove that covers the hands and wrist. What I refer to as "gauntlets" in the video are really bracers, that only cover the wrist and forearm area. In Norse mythology, Thor's Járngreipr are described as iron gloves. So they fit the traditional definition of gauntlets, but they are not the same as the bracers Ultimate Thor has. So I'm assuming maybe the artists/writers originally put the bracers on him to stick closer to the myth as you said, but eventually changed their minds. Maybe they thought having the gloves was enough, and that the added metal bracers was going a bit too far? Maybe they wanted to make him look more different than the normal version of Thor, since the bracers would be too similar to classic Thor's wristband things? Idk.
But I do think it looks better without them. The design's simpler and more "clean," and I think the bracers do make it a bit too obvious that his whole deal is mechanical.
@@DoritoGOD2811 Oh I'm with you 100% that it looks better without the braces. For the exact reasons as you. I just find the logic behind them to make sense.
I find the process of character design super interesting and would love to know what happen behind the scenes.
Because CLEARLY it was a very early change to not make it into the comic but but considered for long enough to make it to the cover.
I think you are up to something with your theory that maybe it made it too obvious that he was being powered by the tech.
@@DoritoGOD2811props for knowing the name
I love how at 14:34, he pronounces it Majolner, and then, a few seconds later, he pronounces Meeloneer.
I was waiting for someone to comment on that😂
I have a unique take (I think) on casual clothing in superhero media. The problem with them isn't that it's casual clothing, it's that they abandon too much of the superhero in questions iconography, making it boring. For example, while I'm not a big fan of the cut he's rocking, Daredevils red and black suit was a great example of how to do this right. Hell, most of Daredevils modern comic normal attire is what I think works best. It keeps his iconography while looking like something you could fashionably wear. Yeah, it's pushing believability a bit, but I think that's a worthy (pun unintended) trade-off for making their casual clothing appealing
Yeah I do think that's part of it. For example, if Thor's beanie and hoodie suits had a big belt buckle with a big T like the classic Thor belt, or if they had something resembling the circles on his chest, or if they had Nordic runes printed on them, or if his beanie had wings stitched onto the side, or anything like that then they probably would have looked better.
But I also think that it comes back to the body type. If Thor was shredded and huge, then it would be kinda funny seeing his super-built physique in normal clothes. But since he's built like a normal guy, and he's wearing the clothes of a normal guy, he ends up looking like just a normal guy.
Ya know what I 100% agree. Look at the bugle boy outfit for spidey. It does look like casual attire (granted from the 60s) that someone would wear but still has the red white and blue iconography that goes with spidey.
He’s also blind and stylistically the color really popped
@@DoritoGOD2811 For some reason I just love the idea of Thor in casual wear so I liked most of the ones on offer well enough. There's a certain charm to it. But yeah that charm could be better with those kinds of details, and soooo much better if Thor had a somewhat exaggerated, godly physique.
Him and Steve are far too small in this game. It's a video game, they're not living breathing actors, so exaggerate a little! Hell, make them look like RE5 Chris Redfield.
@@DoritoGOD2811 Welcome to Crystal dynamics
our game devs are specialized in being pay for cosmetics experts, lazy when given a small color or facial hair change, looks for concepts from the first Google image rather than the comic, adds unnecessary detail like metal trims on spandex.😂😂😂😂😂😂
Seeing you play GOW has made me want a video about all the different armour sets. It'll never happen but I can dream.
I wouldn't say too far fetched. Just depends on how invested he gets into GoW and what he plans to do once the Avengers well runs dry.
Jane Foster as Mighty Thor comics are REALLY good, you should totally check em
Not really up my alley....I am more of a God Butcher arc guy myself
Nah, fuck that noise.
Now that you pointed it out, I feel like the name "The Mighty Jane Foster!" is way more empowering since she wouldn't be stealing a guy's name. I actually think that title has a nice ring to it and it's a shame the movies and game didn't use that as her superhero name.
They should have taken a page out the ultimate alliance book and just given us comic accurate costumes no matter how silly
“I think the helmet looks weird on her. I also don’t like looking at her face.” Made me laugh harder than i should lol
The All-Weapon on Jane's Valkyrie costume is actually just taken from her Ultimate Heroic, where she throws out Mjolnir before switching to the All-Weapon.
Thor should always look like he's the most powerful dude in the room. and he hangs out with avengers and Asgard.
I’ll be honest I think the best suits in this game are always the ones that are more kin to their classic designs than the overdesigned and super techy stuff that just looks cheap
The later, premium costumes that they took directly from the comics are miles above the outfits in the earlier days of the game's release. Compare the Hawkeye Modern and Retro costumes with the ones that are original in the game.
Jane Thor has a really interesting twist to her that makes her a unique hero. That one bit is like the only part of her comic run that’s really like that. It’s worth a read if you like Thor stories (love and Thunder does an alright job adapting her story but it could’ve been much stronger)
The twist is her cancer and how being in her Thor form erases her chemo and slowly kills her. It’s an interesting dynamic. She’s much more interesting in practice than her story sounds at first glance.
@@jackmorelli5638but when a concept itself is flawed it kinda suspends someone's genuine interest
>(love and Thunder does an alright job adapting her story
No it doesn't.
@@antona.8659love and thunder be like, “Cancer?!?!, 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣”
A superhero with cancer? Never seen that before! ...Oh wait. We have. Multiple times. From Marvel, no less.
These avengers suit rankings are the best
I love the way you analyze and explain how the artystyle isn't done well in service of the character, like when you mention the straps and buckles with Thor and how his suit looks cheap and blocky, when he should look regal and godly and otherworldly, exactly as you said it is so true.
Art style is one of the most important factors in a game, so important not to screw this up
Excellent video
thor looks like he's wearing JEANS, in every outfit
You're right 😂
Always love these videos! You're one of few people out there I've seen making content about superhero costume design.
Love the Marvel Vs Capcom Thor theme in the back.
At least these videos are showing why hawkeye has some of the best suits, especially the ones based of fractions original hawkeye run (minus the bird hybrid one)
Man you are NOT going to like my eventual Hawkeye video
@@DoritoGOD2811 as long you have good things to say about the Matt fraction based suits, I’m sure it’ll be fine (I’ll agree the iconic suit is nearly perfect minus the shaved head)
@@simonmann4922 I'm so sorry man😔
Hawkeye has maybe three good suits, his retro, Civil War movie, and modern one.
@@Montesama314 the suits based on fractions run are top tier along with the counter earth, the modern suit based on the secret avengers suit, a very good classic suit inspired design, and a medieval Hawkeye with a poncho (I’m sorry but square Enix did not do the retro suit justice)
Thor is one of those few characters where I realize I like their depictions more in the mcu than in the comics
Jane took the name Thor because, at the time, Thor wasn't "Thor." He was Odinson. He didn't think he was worthy of the name "Thor." "Thor" was a symbol of power, of hope, of worthiness. And Odinson was not that at the time. So, he gave his name to Jane, who at first refused, but Odinson insisted.
You have to seriously put effort into making a bad Thor costume. Seriously, it's a viking, big, fat and strong with manly facial hair. over thirty is straight up talent
Sorry, lots of comments on this but another reason they kept the sleeves off of Dark World Thor is because he essentially wore the same suit in Age of Ultron (but the circles and chest piece were the usual gray and silver instead of gold) and in that film hes completely sleeveless so its essentially 2 movie suits in 1 i guess?
Something I think really makes Jane look good is that her physique actually looks amazonian, she looks a lot taller and stronger than the MCU Jane, while Thor looks pretty much the same and a video game should allow for more heroic proportions, when your video game super hero looks smaller than most bodybuilders it's kinda hard to sell the idea of super human strenght.
I'd say the Absorbing Man moment is probably the worst bit in that comic but when Jason Aaron stops trying to be le epic feminism (which is something I don't think he's ever been good at) the rest of the comic is a really great story about grief, death, sacrifice. It's got pathos, it's got quiet reflective moments, it's got a cool Malekith/Roxxon team up, I genuinely think that run is severely underrated and wasn't done justice in the movie
In short I think Jane slaps and all her costumes in this game are 10s
i forgot how much i hated Janes "Thor" shit, like no shes not Thor at all and the fact they keep repeating the same bullshit how "Thor is always unworthy" is just ass
You’re the only critic who’s video I can watch in its entirety.
Asqardian destroyer is my main costume for Thor
These videos are some of the most entertaining stuff on UA-cam for me, hope you make one for every character (:
Bruh, go read Jason Aaron’s run on Thor. I know you said you don’t like Jane Foster as Thor, but I promise you, it’s one of the best Thor runs ever.
30:41 makes me wonder if the more successful approach for CD would have been quality over quantity. Give each hero 4-5 high quality costumes, ranging from comics to movies, all genuinely well executed, so that way everyone is bound to have at least one favorite.
6:23 in game when I saw this suit I thought him being bald was just a weird glitch lol
Might be the first time I've ever heard a Marvel nerd say a girls backside is nice to look at and have it be intended and come off in a non-creepy way. 27:03
Also speaks volumes that they make Thor's outfit 'more regal' and Jane's 'more fierce', only to have the literal dead opposite effect and she looks more regal. These devs couldn't pour water out of a boot with instructions on the heel.
Bro let’s go you’re content is really solid. Imo you deserve more followers
I am in love with these videos man. Keep them up, and hopefully you do other games and talk about there skins like Guardians, Arkham oooo Ultimate Alliance or Movie Hulk game
16:34
Now that I look at it, I wouldn't br surprised if they used the Gauntlets on purpose.
Just like instead of using the actual Ultimate Iron-Man Armor, they used that "Canon turned in-Universe TV Show" Armor.
This thumbnail keeps popping up in my recommended and every single time I think of Always Sunny "TWO Thor's?!"
Tell me I'm not alone in this plz
The circles on Thor’s iconic suit look like the Great British 1 pound coin 💀
While I'd like to see you do these with the rest of the characters in the Avengers game, I would also like to see you do this with the Guardians different skins in the GOTG game as personally I think the devs succeeded in that game where the Avengers Devs failed utterly.
The stacked scales in scalar armour cover the attachement point to protect it, as it is a weakpoint.
I just realised how awesome it would have been to have a way to change between Hammer designs ( aka. Not having specific hammers for specific suits )
As a Herald of Thunder fan, the Cosmic Herald skin really doesn't do it for me and I think that Fortnite adapted the costume way better. The top of the cape should start narrower so that it doesn't jut out over the shoulder pads, that white strip on the cape going over his right shoulder should continue at a similar angle to the vertical line up his torso as opposed to the diagonal line since that's how you write the Nordic rune (ᚦ), and the short hair really is a deal breaker for me given how elegant it looks in the comics, flowing down his back like a perfectly conditioned mane.
I think it's the elegant sleekness that's really lost with this adaptation.
Do you have any plans to review the suits in the Insomniac Spider-Man games or in the GOTG game? Both of them have really good suits in my opinion and I think it would be cool to check them out!
I would like to see that.
Also i agree those games have amazing suits.
I will definitely be doing one on the GOTG game, most likely after I'm done with everyone in Avengers. I probably won't do one on Insomniac's Spider-Man since that game has been covered to death by so many people.
@@DoritoGOD2811 That’s awesome! Can’t wait to see it, love your content!
honestly im interested how a video like these for the insomniac spider-man games suits would go
This might be a hot take, but I actually don't think I would mind the idea of a bald Thor if it looked good.
It’s speaks volumes to the lack of creativity when the only decent outfits are the ones designed by people not involved with this game (mcu suits) and yet they still somehow find ways to fuck them up sometimes like the original thor suit from his first movie
Take a drink every time he says “straps and buckles” 😂
You'll be dead in twenty minutes 😂
This is why I actually just use the Mcu costumes while playing the game they actually look like super hero suits
The Ultimate Thor suit should've definitely came with the ultimate mjolnir, its the same size as regualr mjolnir and they could have easily put it in and then added it for the Unworthy suit (since that whole story was about 616 Thor looking for the 1610 hammer). They really didnt even need to change the animations, it was still 1 handed and he uses it mostly as a hammer
Ultimate Mjolnir is definitely not the same size lol
I’m a huge fan of Jane Foster Thor and the outfits she has in this game are amazing. Especially the adaption of the classic Mighty Thor outfit. Even her iconic suit is great which I can’t say for every character in the game.
Two videos back to back let's go!
The only thing i wish was that the 2012 Avengers Thor had a sleeveless version
Thor's scales at 4:45 with the 'holes' you point out are likely meant to be riveted, non-overlapping plate. The hole itself shows a point of attachment onto the fabric beneath.
Man I really don’t get why the devs put that much effort to make all these Avengers federation skins for ALL characters possible even tho they lacked tons of better suits and were also lazier in other recolors that were based on much more iconic suits.
Yo real talk if you can get past Jane being Thor her comic run is actually really good with pretty good art and writing by Jason Aaron. She does suck in the movie tho
Chris Hemsworth looks more muscular than videogame Thor. He's an over the top warrior god, I wish they were a little more bold with his body type.
Yeah, I rememeber liking the general look of Thor except how the circles smother up the chest. He's a god, so let the godly physique speak for itself.
The suit Thor wears in the last frame of Love and Thunder actually looks good. It’s kinda weird how in the MCU, Thor downgrades his suit after the first Avengers, and kinda stayed that way till Infinity War. Still think the suit from the first movie is bar none his best look.
I feel like she's still called " Thor" because the identity of Tjor being Jane was actually revealed after her introduction
I feel like any form of a recolor should've been removed from this list. I get they still count as cosmetics. But I'd hardly call them that. Also, I feel like the scores in this video were a little harsh, especially the bad ones. Also, Jane makes a WAY BETTER Valkyrie than Thor!
really sucks that jane's moveset in the game didn't include the shrapnal attack that the old hammer got i nLove and Thunder
been waiting for this one 😮💨😮💨
I’m surprised they didn’t have a Ragnarok skin (the cyborg counterpart of Thor not the movie which they did)
Man I really wished they gave him his axe in most of the suits but I guess that would have been hard
The hair on the unworthy suit is hawkeye's 😂
Hi man love your custom videos
It's weird that the Stark Tech actually feels like improvement on the iconic one, it just has more tech rather than regular armor.
best series on youtube
The developers just refuse to adapt the source material, they make a bunch of unnecessary changes to the designs.
With how many times Thor actually uses a larger Hammer / Axe in other media, you'd think they'd give him animations for using an axe. Instead of giving Hawkeye a sword.
Also, they probably could've given the Gladiator and Infinity War suits the shattered Mjolnir that Jane uses. It's still inaccurate but makes slightly more sense than him using normal Mjolnir.
Awesome video bro
Honestly half the costumes would be better if he actually had some muscle mass
Hell, they didn't have to change the animations for ultimate Thor. They could have just done a model swap and made him swing the hammer one handed lol
Ultimate Mjolnir is considerably bigger though, so if you don't change the animations then there would be a lot of clipping on the handle if he's holding it closer to the head of the hammer. If he was holding it closer to the pommel then the animations would be misleading since the hammer would extend far past where it actually hits. You could shrink the hammer to make it a one-handed weapon, but then that would also look weird. So I really do think the best solution would be to make new animations for it, especially since those animations could then be reused for MCU Stormbreaker.
I would love to see an Avengers game that has a similar style to Marvel vs Capcom Infinite or Fortnite. Sometimes, less is more, and in this case, it definitely is.
I personally quite like her valkyrie skin the most as i also never liked the
jane fosthor character
(The whole reasoning for her not taking time to treat her cancer was bloody stupid)
I do quite like where the character is at right now
18:08 it's kinda ironic that one of the best non mcu thor skins is canonically his dad and not him
8:17 my biggest problem is that the chest circle things are not just white like they should be
To be fair, the circles on Thor's classic costume are often colored light blue in the comics.
@@DoritoGOD2811 really? I'm not a big comic reader but from the pictures you showed it looked silver/white to me. But yeah if they are actually that color I see what your saying
21:28 bruh I read the whole thing, it’s actually kinda funny
I just dont understand why they dont just.... recreate the suits instead of these odd remasters that never look better
I actually enjoy this game but there is alot of things I dislike they had so much potential for an avengers game I don't know what went wrong in the production of this game but it coo
In the Love and Thunder movie Jane is never referred to as Thor at all. Shes referred to as Jane.
Great video :)
I look forward to the Hulk episode, surely they can't mess up purple pants... right?
Also Hulk has pretty cool costumes my personal favorite is his Joe Fixit looks in particular his wife beater shirt and rings on his fingers
Hello god of dorito's, I hath arrived to say so far I agree with your onions.
Would like to see you do this but for other games. Obvious one being Insomniac's Spider-Man
(U)MvC3 music is so great. Especially this song.
The arm armor on the War Cry suit is not scale armor, it’s called Lamellar armor. Or thats what it looks most similar to me at least
pls do more!!
27:02 "This one... makes her backside visually pleasing to look at"
Bro you didn't talk about the "steampunk" outfit, one of my favs
I kinda want to play it again so i can mess around with all the costumes.
to be fair if you have seen what ive seen you would love to see these casual outfit
what do you mean by this
@@DoritoGOD2811 games i play never have casual cloths
I'm waiting for black widow. Great videos btw
Thanks god I got the definitive edition for free on game pass, so I got all the costumes for free, cause I would not be willing to pay for these shitty suits. I like Hawkeye’s Werehawk suit, though.
You should do a video on marvel ultimate alliance 3 it has very good alt costumes
The destroyer armor is an armor i just could be remote controlled
