I like how the game paints Loki as someone who deep down loves his family and people but always feels the need to put himself first but regrets it on the inside.
The few times he's managed to beat Thor and rule Asgard he always ends up giving it up in one way or another. He's better when he works towards his goals vs actually obtaining them.
God normie morals are something, you’re no use to anyone in this world if you don’t put yourself first. That people conflate selfishness and self interest with self centeredness is why we’ll be back in the Stone Age within the century.
He can become the (LOKI show spoilers IDK) new time weave of the multiverse but that just means he can see very reality where he got his ass thrown to the floor.
In Norse mythology, Loki was a mischievous prick, but so was Odin. A trickster god being king of Asgard is kinda normal. Loki also causes and solves 70% of all the issues.
Honestly I never get why they made him Thor's brother when he is supposed to be his uncle. Loki and Odin are supposed to be brothers. Loki is also the father of Hel and so many monsters and primordial beings in Norse mythology. It is kinda weird that Marvel tries to make Thor and Loki the same age.

@@andrzejfija9364 Yes. In that way Loki is very much a giant. But this is also Marvel's version, and I do wish we got to see more Loki versions lean on their Jotun powers and heritage. Imagine an ice cave as a conduit for his illusion magic!

Man Loki is so good in his dialogue, every bit is just filled with charisma and it is not hard to fall into his tricks seeing how good his wordplay is. His gameplay is also pretty great, healing and dealing tons of damage is quite fun.
I like how with some of dialogues with Thor, you can tell despite how much Loki's annoyed by his boisterous optimism, deep down he can't bring himself to fully hate him
It's probably because even after everything he has done Thor still holds out hope and believes in Loki being good in the end. I'd be hard pressed to hate someone who still believes in me no matter what.

That is an aspect of his character that i've always loved, i'm very curious to see his interactions with the other characters now that we have the full roster!!
there's also the fact that according to the lore so far the reason he took over asgard was because in every future where he wasn't king asgard fell, so he saw that him being on the throne would be the only way to ensure the survival of asgard basically, which is what drove him to make a play for the throne and bargain with hela for help

I really like loki’s interactions with mantis and adam warlock, people who can see through his lies, see through the evil mask he wears. Now i want a comic run where loki joins the guardians of the galaxy for a bit
"That means I get to do it once." "What an exasperating fool you are when you try to make a joke." What makes you think he was joking, Hela? See, this is why he's going to be able to get away with breaking a deal with you the firrs time.
3:09 Ah! Jade Giant's one of Hulks more infamous nicknames! Not sure if i've heard Taciturn terror but it wouldn't surprise me if that was a thing too.
I love that Loki and Squirrel Girl seemingly like each other. They're my favorite characters in Marvel and I love the chaos they bring to each group they're in. Plus, they play off each other well so far. They're both full chaos but SG brings a natural empathy to their interactions that Loki just can't seem to manage. She's like a physical embodiment of empathy and optimism and I think Loki, subconsciously, really appreciates it.
It’s so funny how Marvel has flipflopped on whether Hela is actually Loki’s daughter so many times. Like the latest canon is through time travel, Thor dropped off baby Hela with Loki in the past and told him “yeah you’re going to adopt her and raise her as your daughter now”, and because at this point Loki was with Angrboda (she’ll eventually have Fenris and Jormugandr), he actually did feel he was ready to settle down for a while to raise a family. So Hela was raised with Fenris and Jormugandr as her brothers. But before THIS canon, we had the “Leah is actually Hela” story arc some time ago, where kid-Loki seemed to have a crush on Leah who turns out to be literally the hand of Hela, and who eventually becomes Hela through also time travel. Technically in current canon this is no longer canon, but Leah turned up as one of Loki’s exes in an issue (along with Angrboda and many many more), so like, technically a version of Loki once sort of was a couple with his daughter. I think they emphasize that Hela is adopted to avoid making this worse. Old classic Loki was actually worse, he didn’t act like a father to Hela much and that was before the adoption/timetravel/reincarnation retcons
I thought the canon was that Hela was actually Loki's daughter but her Loki was a previous incarnation prior to a Ragnarok that happened in the past. So that's why they never really had any familial relationship even before the MCU.
@ Nah, that’s old canon now cos the most recent canon is in a Thor comic from last year, where it’s revealed Hela is a black infinity stone reborn into a child, who was then brought into the past by Thor to give to a younger Loki to raise and to fit their myth. All incarnations of Loki are treated as the same progenitor as his previous incarnations. Recently in another comic from 2022-2023, he has a confrontation with his grandson(s) More the twin-wolf-souls-in-one, who plead to him as their grandfather and Loki does acknowledge them as his grandsons. He also acts as if he was the one who personally imprisoned them even tho from perspective of everyone, that would’ve been his classic Loki incarnation. But when an Asgardian is reborn, their entire history and metaphysical presence is reborn. So even tho this incarnation of Loki is new, in their own history and who fathered what descendant, it’s now always been THIS Loki. That’s kinda the thing with Asgardians. The Ragnarok cycle when triggered, caused them ALL to die and be reborn with new histories and metaphysical existence, to feed The Ones Who Sit in Shadow more power. EVERY Asgardian was reincarnated and not just Loki, this included ALL of them, including their children. All their origins get restarted and reshuffled and rewritten (this is what God of Stories Loki realised and took advantage of) Original Fenrir (from the 1970s comics) was actually just a furry man with a mace. There’s been actually multiple ragnarok cycles that happened to the Asgardians before Thor finally stopped it and stopped The Ones Who Sit in Shadow from feeding off the Ragnarok energies, so Fenrir get depicted as fully a wolf technically only in recent cycles. But to Asgardians, there’s only ever the one CURRENT version of their history, even tho they’re all more aware of what the nature of their existence is, especially Loki. He can now more directly affect his own incarnations and is more self-aware, but he keeps his role as progenitor of Fenrir (and via him all current wolf gods), and Jormugandr. But the details can change, hence why Hela is basically given a new origin every 10 years IRL now.
@@Elementroar Wow well first off thanks so much for listing this all out, very informative. Not sure I like the changes to Hela (I'm guessing it's partially to accommodate diverging takes like the MCU version) but it feels like it's a good way to explain why the Marvel versions have generally been so different from classic myths, or why the modern versions are quite different to the old english speaking Jack Kirby characters of the 60s and 70s.
@@nikhilcruz No problem! I was given a lot of the old comics collected by my father before I got into it, so it’s been really interesting (and confusing) to see how Loki and Asgardians in general have changed over so many IRL years. I’m also not a fan of changes to Hela, mainly cos I think the changes sometimes happen too fast and honestly, doesn’t feel like there’s even a good reason. Like even the new origin I told u about with her being a black infinity stone for whatever reason - that plotline is half baked and unfinished cos one of the key writers left the project midway. Pretty much a mess and I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if it’s completely forgotten the next time Hela is relevant to some major plot in the future. Edit: Just an additional detail. Because Thor stopped their forced reincarnation via Ragnarok, why of the interesting side effects is that since Jormugandr was killed, he can’t come back or be reborn, cos the Asgardians kinda have a full linear timeline now with their current incarnations. We’ll never say never, a future story can have him be revived somehow with magic. But in a way, the Asgardians are ‘mortal’ right now (this is also why Sigryn, Loki’s technically lawful wife, after deciding she had enough of him, of Asgard maybe in general, died and hasn’t come back).
Strange does say that this is the only Asgard that hasn’t been destroyed, so despite everyone complaining about Loki usurping the throne it does seem like it’s worked out for the best so far.
@ He was Loki in an Avengers cartoon. That is also where his entire ult concept comes from. "YOUR POWERS ARE MINE!" reference how the Loki of that cartoon tried to steal the Avengers powers. He has also played Loki in several Marvel games before.

@@andrewsanusi8462 And that's what makes it funny remembering that Loki is ADOPTED! Less he was BORN into it and more he got LUCKY to have been adopted into the 1%! (As in Thor Dark World, Odin shut down that "Birthright" garbage by reminding he could have LEFT him to have been left to die by his BIO father, but he had instead adopted and made him his son!) Reminder that Had he not been a deceiving ass, he might have won the throne fair and square, and in many of his interactions here, he's AWARE of it bitterly! But then Thor would never have gotten his character growth as it was largely Loki "letting him SHOOT himself in the foot" that brought about the start of his adventure in exile! Loki set him up, but Thor still took the bait hook line and sinker and HE mouthed off to their father when he got scolded! Loki didn't make him do that. But that's how you KNOW they are truly BROTHERS even if not by blood. Both of them suffer "Foot in mouth" syndrome and have hurt THEMSELVES when the simple solution was possible!

0:28 just father and daughter bonding
As a Legend of Vox Machina fan I can't unhear a conversation between a father and son in the Doctor Strange interaction.
Definitely wish we had an interaction between Loki and Spider-Man with evil scale of 1 to 10 reference.
Casting Troy Baker as Loki was an absolute stroke of genius. And here I was thinking that they couldn't top casting James Arnold Taylor as Magneto.
He has been a Loki VA many times before, so it's more like one of his go-to roles.
@@yoursonisold8743 When? This is the first time I can think of hearing Troy Baker voice Loki.
@ He was Loki in an Avengers cartoon. That is also where his entire ult concept comes from. "YOUR POWERS ARE MINE!" reference how the Loki of that cartoon tried to steal the Avengers powers.
He has also played Loki in several Marvel games before.
@@yoursonisold8743 Which cartoon? I seem to remember Graham McTavish voicing Loki in several of those, including Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes.
@@furioussherman7265 Why cant you just do some basic research yourtself...?
The one after Earth Mightiest Heroes. I don't remembeer what it was called. Assembled? Just look it up.
The amount of effort they put into these interaction is commendable.
3:19 Loki mains relate with Loki here (why did they make it so that hulk has an achievement that has to do with using his ult on us 😭 )
3:19 AVENGERS FLASHBACKS 😭😭
“A Soul”
Damn.. going to need more than magic to heal that burn.
"To battle!" I love him
Other characters react to ally eliminations, like Doctor Strange saying "No one can resist against the full strength of the Scarlet Witch"
Troy mfing Baker ladies and gentlemen. Absolute perfection
9:13 top tier roast.
Why is squirrel girl the only person ive seen acknowledge black widow as someone other then a sniper?
1:14 Kind of reminds that Doom sometimes has the same story, the only good future is where he rules but is also quite convenient that only he saw that future
Hearing Troy Baker as Loki makes me sad how robbed we were with Pagan Min (farcry 4) having so little screen time
Loki design is so 10/10
The helmet from MCU if some future they add Malekith the real norse Loki
And he is a healer with the rune stone like in SIEGE and like in every comic he is always the mastermind behind "a big team" of giants doing all the muscle work
I love that thear is lokis family pating on one of the maps (sorry for my english
2:34 I understand she did earn her god hood but she was born with that capability. Meaning she was born a god too.
Abilities and powers alone don't make a god.
@batjope23 True, but tell me she would still be considered a god by her people if she couldn’t control the weather with her mind.
A god mother, sure.
@@batjope23she's only a god because she's an omega. Without her mutant genome, she'd be a nobody
Literally born a god
Difference is, Loki is a god *in a land of gods.* So in fact HE earned it, but Storm didn't
I like when he makes puns.
"a nutshell"
"so damp"
Ohhhh I didn’t know Hulk was down like that… 😮💨😏 Lucky Loki. 😂😂😂
"I could be anyone, but i choose tô be Loki"
God (of lies) I love him.
1:55 "To battle!" is so cute
Bro does the character ABSOLUTE JUSTICE
who knew magneto and loki would be buds
🗣️ THE BATTLE STARTS IN FIVE...
Hela's voice actress really delivered that "King Loki" with the same energy as "My Dear Obi-Wan"
I do find it interesting with how much there avoiding the relations with hela, loki and thor. Probably because of the mcu making hela odin's daughter instead of loki but I hope they change it back
Loki would absolutely no diff the punisher in lore 😭😭
Punishers standard arsenal couldn't even hurt him even without Lokis magic.
3:09 is AMAZING
6:53 . What is Mantis staring at ?
Love the dynamic between Loki and Mantis. A lying narcissist and an empath. He can't really manipulate her since shes able to see right through his BS
It's interesting that out of all mortals, Loki seems to have at least a bit of respect for Dr Strange.
Has a Scar from the Lion King feel to him
2:19 Storm acting high and mighty when she was also born into her powers by pure chance is hilarious
Loki thor convo -
BROTHER!!! my i have some loops😂😂😂😂
I was waiting for hela to call loki father
ah yes loki, the trickster, the king of lies, the mf who got pregnant by a blue horse and gave birth a horse with like 6 legs and gave said son to his adoptive father as a mount.
also hela arent you loki's child?
I find it deeply amusing how Loki sounds uncannily like Sideshow Bob.
"Your god is suffering 💅💅"
Wait guys that’s not Loki Laufeyson
That’s Troy Baker
0:26 I was in the middle of the game playing as loki when he said that line to hela i was dying 🤣 ugh I love this game and im not even a competitive multi player type this is my game ill hop on anything marvel as long as my girl storms in it ill play it😁
I love how Loki just refers to Black Widow as just ‘The Sniper’.
HEALING FOR MY FREINDS! :D
Troy Baker using his Van Kleiss voice.
Storm threw so much shade at loki 😂
i need more loki dialogue!! 💚🖤
I felt a bit of revenge against Black Widow at the end.
Why don't you turn down the announcer audio in the settings? It interrupts the ending of some of the interactions.
Storm sounds like Sindel from mk1
Same voice actress, Mara Junot.
gods, i absolutely love loki so much in all universes!! he’s just so damn charming and amazing!! but the original norse mythology is so confusing… however, i do love it!! i need a breakdown of marvel/mcu norse mythology vs. norse mythology. 😭🖤💚😍
"Raise your heads, friends! The sniper is gone!"
*raises head, gets headshotted by Hawkeye*
"...Lower your heads, friends! The Archer is nearby!"
Is there line :" I'm not doing Get Help!"
No Spiderman ones yet
I hope when we do he offers Loki a Hot Dog after all this
I understood that reference. ^^
3:19 Nice to know that Loki still has PTSD after that event. 😂
1:55 I love this
Loki to Adam: What makes you better than I?
The real answer is a passive heal, and an on demand 1 button bouncing top off.
I'm actually wondering in that universe is Hela his daughter like in the comics/norse mythology or his sister like in the mcu.
So Loki technically is a witch right ? Bc he was trained in the mystic arts by his mother who is a witch.
yessss, he’s an expert of asgardian magic 💚🖤
You can really hear the Van Kleiss in Troy Baker's voice here
Sweet, Ventress is Hela
Did....did Storm just call Loki the 1%?
Well Loki is royalty so he's technically the 1% of asgardians😂
She essentially called him a nepo baby 😂
@@andrewsanusi8462 And that's what makes it funny remembering that Loki is ADOPTED! Less he was BORN into it and more he got LUCKY to have been adopted into the 1%! (As in Thor Dark World, Odin shut down that "Birthright" garbage by reminding he could have LEFT him to have been left to die by his BIO father, but he had instead adopted and made him his son!)
Reminder that Had he not been a deceiving ass, he might have won the throne fair and square, and in many of his interactions here, he's AWARE of it bitterly! But then Thor would never have gotten his character growth as it was largely Loki "letting him SHOOT himself in the foot" that brought about the start of his adventure in exile! Loki set him up, but Thor still took the bait hook line and sinker and HE mouthed off to their father when he got scolded! Loki didn't make him do that. But that's how you KNOW they are truly BROTHERS even if not by blood. Both of them suffer "Foot in mouth" syndrome and have hurt THEMSELVES when the simple solution was possible!
3:20 sus af
Wait a minute, Hela is voiced by the same person who plays Ventress in Clone Wars!
And obi wan voices magneto
@@wesleywatson2009 i thought they sounded familar
Loki having a conversation with Yasuo is crazy.
Leblanc is basically Loki in League Of Legends universe
@@KENSHIROez3260 Interesting, I never thought of this. You are right. I tried to make a joke because of the voice actors.
@@PassanCat lol there is a lot of LoL champion who have a lot in common with Marvel character actually, Mordekaiser is Hela, Viktor is High Evolutionary, Ryze is Thanos, Twisted Fate is Gambit, Katarina is Black Widow.......
