That storm interaction made this finally click for me. Why this game works so well an it's concept isn't too out of place for fans is that Rivals is essentially Secret Wars: The game
sorta kinda… more likely referencing illyana’s time in limbo as a child being mentored by a different storm that was older and more in tune with magic.
@@kuso9757 Ah damn, I really need to go back an read the books I missed out on then. Like right around the ultimate era is stopped reading the comics cause I just 18 an my life suddenly became nothing but go to work, pay rent, repeat for a long time. So I missed out on a lot. But regardless, you gotta admit there is totally a secret wars vibe going on in game an I think it's being done perfectly by not directly pointing it out, jus kinda creating the same sense of theme.
@@Pointman11111 Yeah but playing a character in Midnight Suns isn't a guarantee that the same actor will do it in Rivals so I'm glade it's Laura and not Tara.
0:17 "you on the side of the good guys this time"? Magneto must be so confused since they worked together as revolutionaries at one point 😭 also, she and Magneto are pretty close since his time as headmaster and when she was with the New Mutants
