Marvel vs. Capcom is harder than any traditional fighting game I have put any time into... and less fun, too.
I die lots of times just getting to the final boss, too. I lose constantly from like the second or third round on, and I'm not that bad at fighting games... this series just plays completely differently from anything else in the genre, and makes no sense. The giant beam attacks, the ridiculous cheapness, etc, etc... it's not fun!
But that final boss is exponentially harder than any of the enemies before it. It has two forms, the first one is a giant flying thing, by the time I manage to beat that (this is very, very rare) the second one kills me quickly because you have to beat them both with the two characters you have, the various moves and stuff are too overpowered and make no sense... ugh. I can't stand that game. I know it's a popular series, but I don't like it one bit.
Oh, the closest I came to beating that final boss was when I used Roll and was able to attack while ducking or something like that. That actually got me past the boss's first form, which I had not managed to do up to that point... and of course the second even harder form destroyed me. That's as well as I've ever done. The game just makes no sense for someone who knows how to play a traditional fighting game, you try to play it normally and lose horribly every time. I can't adjust and don't think it's worth the effort to try, the games aren't nearly good enough.
As for MvC2, it's basically the same thing but with a lot more characters. Same insane giant laser beams, same stupid nonsensical insanity... no, the only Capcom Vs. Series games that I think are good are the Capcom vs. SNK games. Capcom vs. SNK 2 is one of my favorite fighting games ever. That is, of course, because it's a deep, serious, hardcore fighting game, with none of the stupidity of the Marvel games.
I'm not saying simplified fighting games are bad. Stuff like Evil Zone and SSB are fun. Just not these.
