  "account": "Insomniac, the developer behind Marvel's Wolverine, has announced plans to \"further refine the player experience\" based on feedback received since the game's launch. Despite the game's solid 77 Metascore, IGN's review of 6/10 has highlighted concerns about the game's combat and gameplay. Insomniac expressed pride in the game's development and committed to engaging with players to incorporate their suggestions. The primary focus of refinement appears to be the game's combat, which has been criticized in numerous reviews. The developers have also acknowledged the controversial \"fart gas\" feature, which has sparked debate online, and may consider adding the option to disable it. The scent trail, a feature central to Wolverine's powers, is baked into the game and cannot be turned off, but Insomniac may explore other adjustments to improve the overall experience.",
