You can see Nico represent the more modern younger heroes. Can't wait to use her in action.
she had her live action.
@@ghostrouxinol6169 She also voiced by the same actress to which is awesome!
@@NRV0 omg nico is literaly so cool and emecly powerful i hooe the staff of one will have sm to doo with the stori line
She's good at support in my playthrough
Ok can they just turn this into a animated series I would binge watch the crap out of that. 😆😆 The opening sequence is badass too. 🔥🔥🔥
I mean, I think its adding up to being that. Just keep them coming!
do you only eat saltines?
This right here. I actually couldn't care much about the game; strategy and cards... and strategy cards... aren't really my thing. But I'm liking the hell out of these shorts, and I hope Marvel does decide to turn it into a series.
and with two hunters one a girl and one a boy. the girl will prolly be the base model we keep seeing and the boy is pretty much the same, but just a suggestion.
Fr i want more of wanda cuz she died in marvel well no one knows if she relly died exept the producers aniways glad to see her back in those mom jeans that she wore on the movie night
As some who owns a sign 1st edition of the 1st runaway comic. This was perfect in all ways. The reference of Molly at Xavierz and how there a dynamic of love between Nico and her. Sisterly companionship and how it translated to the midnight sun. Literally brought tears to my eye. So glad for the hulu show actress still doing the work in this character. She is the reason u pre-order this game and I have no regrets!
Hulu show?
@@jadenthecommenter the runaways is a hulu show from like 2 years ago
@@jadenthecommenter There was a live-action show about them. Marvel's Runaways, aired in 2017 on Hulu. Ended in 2019. They had 3 seasons. I haven't watched it yet, but if u are interested tho, go ahead and see for urself...
As now runaways is 20 years old
Damn I'll miss this series, really wish it was an actual series because I love the fact it features some characters we don't see a lot of.
lyrica okano's voice
I think this also solidifies Nico's character as the groups biggest Support character
In every sense of that term.
Here are my personal rankings of the shorts(Bear in mind that I DO like all of them):
5. Blade - Not much going on aside from him killing vampires. Hearing Michael Jai White's voice is fantastic, though.
4. Magik - I don't know much about the character, but seeing her interact with Wanda was nice.
3. Nico - I love how she becomes the group's glue. Also, having Lyrica Okana reprise her role from the show is incredible.
2. Lilith - Great insight into the villain's backstory that will no doubt give us some pathos when Hunter finally confronts their mother.
1. Ghost Rider - I may be biased regarding Robbie Reyes. He's my favorite of the bunch.
I'm curious to hear other people's thoughts on the shorts. Let's get a discussion going.
So not much in terms of discussion, but I like to imagine an MCU adaptation of THIS Midnight Sun story. The cast of the 5 characters you listed can either be actors who played those roles before, MCU or not.
1. Blade can be Wesley Snipes or Mahershala Ali.
2. Magik can be Anya-Taylor Joy who played as Magik from New Mutants (Fox, not MCU).
3. Nico, you already said it. Lyrica Okana from the show.
4. Lilith: Need to find a proper actress who can play this villain in this what if MCU take.
5. Ghost Rider (Robbie Reyes): Gabriel Luna as Reyes from Agents of Shield.
I loved robbie reyes especially in the comic just wish hulu had gave him his series.
Haha I'm definitely with you on having bias😂 For me it is:
5. Lilith - it's not bad by any means, I just preferred all the hero stuff even if Blade's didn't have much going on. Actually on a personal level while I did broadly like it, the short felt slightly generic. Wasn't too exciting for me on the action end, but it's still nice seeing an origin for Lilith.
4. Blade - 100% the voice is what puts it above Lilith's for me
3. Magik - loved seeing a solid pairing that I can do in the game, and since I had recently seen the New Mutants movie and loved it, it was super cool to see more of her
2. Ghost Rider - love Robbie Reyes, he's probably the character I'm the most excited to hang with. It was cool to see the gang stuff acknowledged and off it's always awesome to hear him talk to or about Gabe. Big bros for the win!
1. Nico - and this is where my true bias comes in😂 love Nico. This was for me the most fun, creative and unique short. Fantastic to hear her giving love to Molly the cinnamon roll and I love the framing of a lot of the scenes. 10/10 zero complaints
Overall for me they kept getting better with Lilith's being a solid base to start but also great as a prequel to help us develop some form of connection to the antagonist and caretaker before we even start playing. Incredibly hype for this game.
Obviously these are all just my opinions but mine is:
5. Blade - I'm growing fond of Blade from all this Midnight Suns stuff, but his short as you say was just killing Vamps in a mostly generic way (though that throwing bit was fun).
4. Ghost Rider - Mostly just beating up crooks in a generic way (though the molotov into fire car transition was really cool)
3. Magik - Mostly just killing minions in a kind of generic way, also it has that joke about why she's using a Sword when like half the cast of this game are using Swords and no-one talks about it lol, BUT it has a nice duo in Wanda and Magik and watching Wolvie watching from the shadows was really warm and sweet.
2. Nico - Pure character fun, no awkward action to critique, I'm totally here for it.
1. Lilith - Well animated, well acted, good plot setup, makes me want to know more about the story!
They definitely went to town with the Ghost Rider episode, but the first one is easily my favorite, great backstory established for the main villain (Darkhold used much more effectively than Multiverse of Madness) and done so with great hand-drawn animation.
Awwwww I've always loved Nico! I'm so happy she's gonna be in this game!!
Any reading recommendation? About Runaways in general too
@@giuseppepiuma1965 Yeah! There's 3 I'd recommend! The Original Runaways Collection by Brian K. Vaughn, The second series by Rainbow Rowell and Young Avengers and Runaways: Civil War! I highly recommend the original run it's sooo good! Tell me what you think about it if you end up reading it!
Sister Grimm/The Gloom
So good! Love the references to both the Runaways and the game itself (like the hangouts, etc.).
My favorite short so far, really unique.
Totally agree
it was my least favorite so far
@@joshpwnsnoobs lacks action like the others I guess? Seems like her character is more focused on being the glue or uniting the team
@@jyannananana1717 Personally I found most of the action in the others to be a bit eyeroll-ish or generic in nature (with a few exceptions like the cool molotov into fire car moment lol), but this short I was just totally here for, not a single critique.
@@OneWingedRose I kinda agree with others that it lacks action but I don't mind it much...for me it's all cool, action scenes are nice but as a Nico stan I appreciate hers the most... How she went from being like a Leader in the Runaways after Alex betrayed them, to now where she has to adjust her role and be like Molly, more in charge of uniting them...
I don't know which are the comics Midnight Suns Nico is tied to
So I'm assuming
It's a role she's never been into because in A-Force, it was Singularity that's uniting them...
I would def pay to watch a series dedicated to this
if you liked this you should check out the Blade anime.
Oh my god a Nico short finally I love Nico.
I have no idea who the f# she is since she was in none of the anime or movies I saw, and I saw a lot of animes and all the movies.
And I have no idea who she's talking to either... so, to me, this video is just a showcase of all the other ones.
@@Mad77max77 in fact, there is a TV show about the runaways, I watched only the first season though
@@cristianaliagagonzalez6899 I thought there was only one season for it so far??
@@travishunstable5283 there’s 3 seasons and it got cancelled before a fourth
@@disaverygaybird2818 ah my bad. I got distracted by daredevil and Punisher how good they were so I guess I never finished runaways. With that being said I’m curious who are the characters you’re most excited for in this game. So far mine would be venom, blade, hunter (cuz I wanna know their story). I’m holding out hope for a season pass 2 with Daredevil, Punisher, Moon Knight, and Elsa bloodstone but we’ll have to wait and see. So who are you most excited to play as??
This is my 1st introduction to Nico, and it's pretty endearing, so well done!
She's a spellcaster. She has the Staff of One, which can cast any spell there is... once. Once she's used that spell it can never be used again.
@@kevinmalone4341 how bizarre and interesting. Sounds difficult to use. I'd go crazy wondering if I would need to save that spell for later or not lol.
@@TragoudistrosMPH thankfully not applicable to the game ;)
However, I have seen in the comics that she actually learns new languages so she can cast the same spell again, just have to use different words, even if they are the same words really.
This was so damn wholesome I love it and to think we got the same voice actor from the TV show if they can get Molly in season 2 of the dlc season pass that would so freaking awesome maybe Alex could be the villain leading a Demon army
honestly those last couple of words rings with me. she doesn't know what she can do, but she tries any way. and even then from some gameplay footage I've seen she's helped revive the hunter. she tries no matter what, and she does no matter what. definitely on my team.
Nico is going to have a field day, when the Hunter gets to the Abbey and start Hangouts for friendship-points with her.
I'm living for this line up of the Midnight Suns not gonna lie 😆 And the feels in this last Prequel short was literally a chef's kiss 🤌🏽
They got Lyrica Okano to voice Nico
Nice
My favourite character from my favourite series. Cool to see Runaways get some love in video games, she's gonna be a constant in my team.
Thank you for these Firaxis, I'm beginning to think Jake Solomon might be my spirit animal. This game is gonna take over my Xmas vacation for sure.
Gods, what a sweet soul Nico is. Also, notice how the animation here is going for less smooth and more naturalistic with the framerate. We saw a bit of that with the Blade short but this is more refined.
Nico sees herself as a den mother. So it makes sense
Need less sweet souls.
@@CM-hi4db No, more of them than ever, really. There's enough assholes out there.
Blade may have been impressed by the handspring thing in the Yard, but the couch flip at 3:36 is her most stylish move by far. :)
Nico shadow witch skin is absolutly badass)
I'm actually addicted to this game. I'm not much for card or tactics games but this is an amazing combo of the two thats not too difficult to understand.
A good balance of Nico's humanity is what gives the team a good heart.
This should be a show, all this characters are so interesting and it seems like the people behind this knows the characters very well.
so the leader of the fugitives now doesn't have to run, nor lead... she can just be herself... and it will be amazing to watch and help her awaken her potential!
Nico is my favorite runaway
So she’s the team’s Jubilee, reminding them what they’re fighting for.
I can see that...an archetype that goes all the way back to Robin when you think about it.
After 2.5 years of avoiding, I finally got the Covid, and my only regret is this game was only days away during a time when I have nothing else to do!
Ugh, bad break, pal. Get better soon, alright?
@@johnathonhaney8291 Will do, thanks!
Get proxy to retrieve it for you. Surely you have paid off your preorder.
@@cunningsmile4166 I have preordered it, but I’m not sure I know what you’re talking about. Either way, only a couple more days.
@@adamwhite4858 They were probably thinking a physical copy. Sounds like you did the same digital pre-order I did.
Wanda😭😭❤️❤️❤️
If this intro is not playing every time we start the game, it would be such a missed opportunity !
AHHHHH love it 10/10 holy crap did not expect to love this final short sm even as a Nico fan. So fun and unique, and lmao that slow weird candy reveal. And ofc the roll onto the couch, I feel seen😂 man I've been so hyped for this game, I wish more studios put in as much work as this one seems to in hyping their game, making it and being transparent with it.
so glad lyrica okano is doing nico's voice for this game loved her on the runaways show and she did an amazing job in the game too
Thanks for these shorts. And this one was a sweet one
Ahhh, I can´t WAIT to play this game. Even so I never played one like that. But all these awesome trailers and these cool Heroes. I LOVED Nico since I saw her in the Comics.
She will be on my team! Love her!❤
HOW DID THIS NOT BECOME A SERIES
Please for the love of God make this an animated series with the same animation style as the opening throughout.
Thanks for these. Brilliant 👍😊
love these vids. Pre-download for pre-orders pleasssse! 😁
I wish this was a full series, maybe Disney+ could take the hint?
So like what if I wonder if fireaxis could make a game off that.
As long as it isn't woke.
The advertising hype for this game has been tremendous.
Yeah I loved the character showcases and deep dives. The Livestreams hav ebeen good too and I think I heard they have 1 final one of those coming Wednesday as well.
Man this made me a fan
Call me when we can put our friends and abilities in like XCOM, and I'm sold.
Blade hit Nico once and sent her flying
Ciao Nico TV il tuo video mi è piaciuto tantissimo e non vedo l'ora di vedere un altro video tuo Grazie mille A presto!
2:33
Looney Tunes smack sound
Can't wait to play.
Loved it!
Loved it!!
yo thiss is awesome
Please make an animated series using this cast, they're perfect!!!!
Right now this is my favorite animated show. 😝
Yo, Wanda's got them shoulders
She is ready to cast "punch" in case her actual magic fails.
@@galerion505 Blade is probably training her in that particular "field of magic", yes?
This is so cute I'm gonna cry 🥺
i LOVE YOU NICO!!!
Buying for the Abbey. Staying for the gameplay.
So, she's the moral booster?
We’ll given how evil her parents where and just getting one bad thing after another dumbed on her then having to take care of her friends and be the leader of the team she knows a thing or two about keeping her moral compass right. One of the reason I love her character.
The power and flash may be the first draw, but the interpersonal dynamics are often what truly carry hero stories. It's why JL, JLU, YJ, EMH, and the MCU were/are so successful. And the emotional glue of a team often becomes a fan favorite.
W shorts can’t wait to play the game on Friday
Put these on the disc 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼
Runaways 👕❤
I still can’t believe this is the voice of the actual live action Nico from the runaways. We need her in the MCU ASAP!!
Oh man. Nico is on my A team for sure. Can't wait to see her shine! Er.. glow? Uh.. Radiate!
By whatever term you choose, she do light up the room, don't she?
The Gloom shall glow purple
Just 4 more days :D
Not long now, friend. And I suspect that it will be worth the wait.
Hi can't wait to play it and thanks you for everything again
I gotta ask, what is happening with the framerate in these shorts?
My guess is that they're fiddling with the framerates to give the animation a more natural feel. Recall that the Magik and Ghost Rider shorts had a bit of an uncanny valley look because they were too smooth. This one felt close to RL motion...not perfect but better than the Blade short.
@@johnathonhaney8291 I don't think that's the issue: for me, at least, on multiple devices, I get smooth then choppy framerates all throughout the video, but only on the CGI sections, not during the traditionally animated opening credits. Gotta be an issue they haven't fixed yet.
@@dumbboyfriend The CGI sections are what I'm talking about, actually. Ironically, the choppier sections make it feel a bit more lifelike.
I would love to see Nico Minoru in the upcoming Avengers Secret Wars 🙏🤞🤞
Yay!
This is exciting will their be full episodes 😄😄😄
I got to say Nico I like your voice and this animation looks awesome
We need this to be a Disney+ show. But the MCU needs to get to here at some point.
Wanda should bring some of her sitcom DVD's over
So Spiderman in this universe is adult Peter Parker i take it?
My guess is that he's the in-between hero we saw in the Playstation game, been doing this longer than most of the others (do recall he started in his mid-teens) but still young enough to relate to them.
Are all of these prequel shorts and cut scenes in the game as well?
And THAT, everyone, is why I prefer newer heroes. All the 'veterans' get so much of the attention that they're blinded by their egos. And don't get me started on how almost every major disaster is caused by them!!
This was good, but I was kind of hoping we'd see how Sara brought her in.
The younger heroes also can teach the old guard to think again about what they're doing. They just need to get past the egos noted above first.
Sometimes even the young can be arrogant and naive.
@@Tigerkaya True, but Nico is almost never arrogant.
@@joaquinpallanza7436 given I have never read her comics I will take your word.
Never cared for young heroes.
I need to see Alex Wilder like this.
I love that we're going to have Nico in this, and she seems true to the character as I know it :)
I still wish you had stuck to the drawn animation of the Sister of Salem video. this animation style feels jarring to me
I love her personality
Was she streaming for online followers or just sending a message to her fellow Runaways?
I was hoping to see Spidey in one of the shorts
Please make a animated movie or show like this please
honestly I had hoped she would be talking to Karolina but Molly works as well
Nah Karolina was kinda forced by the TV series...and for consequence forced into the comics. What I'm saying here is that I don't mind Nico being bisexual, just that the Rock n' Roll chick nowadays is always homo. Which is kinda of a misconception
Considering the fact that Molly was the youngest Runaway member it sorta makes sense that Nico would call her for advice since she's now the youngest member of a team.
Me too but I get the feeling magik and nico could happen.
@@andrewpenny4676 same! A punk rock and goth besides making a badass coven would def have a lot in common .
Yeah wish they would have had just like one pic of them together in the back ground on her desk or something. They are my favorite magic/space queer couple, then would be Wiccan and hulklean
So will I be able to play this on my xbox PC app ? bc I am depolyed over seas and do not have my xbox on me and would really love to play this
Oh I hope Molly shows up.
Wanda back in the mom jeans🤣
Ok, Magik its gonna be hard lvlup relationship? Nice.
Given how Magik was before all this, she's the walking definition of "complicated".
Nico ❤️🥺❤️🥺❤️🥺
Damn, these should be mandatory viewing before playing the game! I'm only like 6 days or so in but wish I saw these earlier! Long way to go though, great game so far
Wanda got jacked lol. I hope we get an animated, film or show version one day
Is it me, or the Scarlet Witch has the body proportions of the Hulk?
this has been a great ad campaign
Games and shows give the sights of human side of heroes nowadays.
As they should...I give credit to series like Mass Effect for probing past the stereotypes to see what else may be going on.
need her in the MCU ASAP
Same actor as the character in the Runaways TV series, which takes place in the MCU.
Okay but damn Wanda is jacked. 😍
When ghost rider scare ghost.
I feel like they should’ve brought in wollfsbane or their supernatural heroes like werewolf by night or man-thing but the game looks pretty good so far
Is it just me or is the framerate super choppy and inconsistent?
In my head cannon this is the same Nico as the one from the Runaways TV show, since she is voiced by the same actress.
We can forget about the game. Just make a TV show already haha
I'm wondering if they are going to get all the characters before release. I believe there are six more. I'm counting Wolverine as included with Magik. I'm going to assume Captain America and Ironman will be in the same video. Maybe Dr. Strange and Spiderman as well.
Only the Midnight Suns got videos, the Avengers/X-Men members aren't getting any because they are only HELPING the Suns, not actually joining them on the team's roster
