Thank you Adam Tyner, that seems to be the exact issue I'm having.. I had purchased digital on the ps4 but never installed on the 5. I'll try your solution.

Which would be great if I didn't have to launch the PS4 version to do the save transfer. None of the guides I've seen about transferring Avengers PS4->PS5 data have said anything about how to access the PS4 version, so maybe a path like library filtering is incredibly obvious to most people, but it didn't occur to me at all. (It's a feature I've never used, and I think I've only accessed games through the Game Library once before.)

It might also be worth noting how problematic some of these save upload features have been. The migration tab didn't show up at first for Avengers. Borderlands 3 was a mess. Crash Bandicoot 4 save conversions were broken for the better part of 4 days throughout much of the world.

At the end of the game and had just wrapped up the point of no return mission (which took about an hour) and the game errored out at the cutscene after the boss fight and upon starting the game back up I have to do that mission over again. The lack of in mission saving sucks especially with some of these longer missions. Sigh.

Finished up the main single player game today. Everything involving Kamala Khan is interesting but everything else in the plot/character interactions is mediocre. The missions are incredibly boring and repetitive and I can't imagine wanting to replay through these a bunch of times to level up your characters like they seem to want you too. Overall a pretty generic action game and I have no interest in jumping back in and doing endgame stuff or using DLC characters. Glad I waited to pick it up when it was under $20.

^ I just got it got good price too. Only played few minutes. As I mentioned, I don’t think I started correctly, but it was decent. Tony/Iron Man was pretty cool and easy to control when flying and stuff. It’s cool when they don’t make it so complicated with flight. Probably why we never got a proper Superman game, what, ever? No one seems to be able to grasp the flight controls of a single being. I’ll try and start again and correctly. But, I like being able to use powers. Just wish the actors could have gotten paid enough to give likenesses. I know they are the Creme de la Creme, but c’mon, be people, if they make a game about yous, let them use you for some voice acting and likeness. Get an extra mil or something. Give it to charity...

This is a cry for help.
I don’t know why I can’t put this game down. I finally bought Tony Hawk Pro Skater 1+2 a few weeks ago but have barely touched it. Instead, I keep coming back to Avengers to do the same few repetitive tasks, over and over and over.
And I’m not done! I have every intention of replaying the campaign. 108 hours and still going...

Yes, along with a several hour long mini-campaign. They also added new enemy types, and apparently the design of Wakanda is breathtakingly gorgeous. I'm really looking forward to play it sometime in the next week or two.

The expansion is pretty decent, but good lord, there’s a difficulty spike at the end of the last mission that’s just on a completely different plane of existence than everything preceding it. I’m close to having sunk as much time into the current checkpoint and the one before it than the remainder of the expansion combined.

Spider-Man is finally coming later this year! And the game is getting its first raid.

A few of us started to play this online on PS5. Is there a way to play the added campaign/missions of Hawkeye, Kate Bishop and Black Panther with other players? It says 1-4 players but doesn't actually allow me to invite anyone to play. It keeps saying to check the settings, where they are already set to allow multiplayer. What is going on?

I've got a $10 Best Buy Reward burning a hole in my wallet and I just got a PS5... so this would be $10.
I liked the Spider-Man games by Insomniac, would I like this game? Would it be worth it?

Lots of microtransactions, but all just cosmetic stuff so don't worry about that. All game DLC is free, which is nice. It's been a couple of big expansions so far.

It's literally nothing like the Spider-Man game. This is a multiplayer ARPG with loot. Not unlike Diablo 3 or Outriders, but with Superpowers instead of guns or spells. It's pretty same-y, IMO but it's not bad. Better than it was. Gator shea and I play it on the PS5 sometimes.

Oh yeah. That is the beginning. I forgot about that prologue. Only a few minutes of that stuff.
