The Artifact: Apocalypse's worshipers are called the Madri, which in Age of Apocalypse was because they were created from mass-cloning Jamie Madrox, the Multiple Man. Here, no such connection is even hinted at.

Brainwashed and Crazy: Beast and Angel are captured by Apocalypse and brainwashed into helping him, resulting in the game's versions of Dark Beast (Beast's Age of Apocalypse counterpart) and Archangel. However, defeating them also undoes the brainwashing.

comment
In the first game, Magneto is the penultimate boss and has more than enough power to provide a challenge for your four-mutant team; in this one, Mags becomes a playable character, and his powers are toned down so he would not be a God-Tier character. Weirdly, this is an accurate representation of his powers in the comics. Whenever Magneto makes a Heel–Face Turn, it's always accompanied by him being powered down by some contrived plot device, simply so he doesn't curb stomp the rest of the X-Men's rogues gallery, few of whom even approach his normal power levels.

The Complainer Is Always Wrong: When Destiny makes a prediction that a team member will betray the others, Toad becomes paranoid and insists that the X-Men not do anything so that the traitor can't betray them any more. Everyone else tells him that they must fight Apocalypse and they can't let the prediction cause them to second-guess everything they do.

Offscreen Villain Dark Matter: Fresh from the destruction of Asteroid M, Magneto somehow managed to conquer Genosha between the first and the second game, built a city and beef up its defenses. Even though Apocalypse hasn't taken over America and reduced the rest of the world to ruins like in Age of Apocalypse, he boasts an impressive amount of resources and manpower such an massive army of mercenaries, Infinites, a fleet of ships and his own Religion of Evil in the form of the Church of Madri, and managing to invade Genosha, the Savage Land and New York. This actually becomes a plot point in Act 3 when the X-Men and the Brotherhood must sabotage his factories in order to hinder his plans.

All Your Powers Combined: Apocalypse's plan is to kidnap and steal the powers of 4 mutants with harmonic DNA, which when placed in one individual amplify each other. The resulting combination combined with Apocalypse's own powers would make him effectively invincible. The mutants are Polaris, Quicksilver, Emma Frost, and Sabretooth.

Pragmatic Adaptation: The game is a loose adaptation of the Age of Apocalypse mixed with The Twelve, forgoing time travel and the death of Charles Xavier, basing some characters strictly on their AoA selves (Abyss and Colossus' brother, Mikhail Rasputin are lackeys of Apocalypse like in AoA, as opposed to—respectively—a hero and a threat in his own right in the traditional Marvel Universe), basing others on their classic selves (Sebastian Shaw, Selene, Bastion) and making Dark Beast a brainwashed Beast.

Gameplay and Story Segregation
 X-Men Legends II (Video Game) / int_6320eced
comment
Gameplay and Story Segregation: Pyro and Sabretooth are playable characters in the PC version. They appear as NPCs, and are captured in the game by Apocalypse's forces. The problem is that the characters are still playable while they've been captured. In Pyro's case, the party breaks him out of prison during Act 1, though he is available before that, allowing the player to have Pyro rescue himself. More serious is Sabretooth's case, since he is the fourth and final mutant with Harmonic DNA that Apocalypse captures for his evil plan. It's also possible to do this with Deadpool once he has been unlocked, though it gets lampshaded this time given the kind of character he is. The two Deadpools argue over which is the real one.

Crippling Overspecialization
 X-Men Legends II (Video Game) / int_9aaf8eca
comment
Crippling Overspecialization: Due to the way damage works in the first game, characters are generally only good at dealing one type of damage: either physical, energy, or mental. As the game progresses, you will often encounter enemies that either resist or are outright immune to a certain type of damage, which really reduces the usefulness of bringing certain characters on missions. Psychics end up suffering the most since the last third or so of the game is populated mostly by Sentinel enemies, who resist mental damage. Thankfully, the 2nd game took steps to fix this and many characters are able to deal more than one type of damage.

Interface Spoiler: After you find the first secret items (dramatic emphasis) in the game, Professor X states that these are the key to locating a certain individual who will help the team greatly. He chooses not to reveal this individual's identity, leaving you to discover it for yourself once all the secret items are uncovered. So you look at the pause menu and it tells you how many Iron Man armour pieces you have thus far...

One-Man Army: Deadpool qualifies, if you play a New Game Plus file - As he only unlocks after completing the game once, he's already as strong as the rest of the characters are at the end of the game, and as he's one of the few characters to feature a mix of close and long range attacks, you can play a large portion of the game with a party consisting of just Deadpool.

Lone Wolf Boss: Sauron. He is encountered in the entrance of a Nuwali temple necessary to advance the plot, but straight up tells the heroes he has no interest in joining Apocalypse. He does attack them when he realizes they are friends (or in the Brotherhood's case "acquaintances") with his arch-enemy Ka-Zar.

One Stat to Rule Them All: Focus, which increases the amount of energy you have for special attacks and how quickly you regenerate energy, because most special attacks do a fixed amount of damage. In the second game, characters whose attacks are X% of melee damage (typically, X>100) also need Striking.

Demoted to Extra: Emma Frost. Playable character in the first game, NPC in the second. Still, that's better than some other characters who were playable in the first game (such as Jubilee) who don't appear at all in the second game. Probably to make room for the Brotherhood characters. Poor Magma only ever gets mentioned in a trivia question, despite being the main character from the first. Mystique goes from being one of the major villains and a recurring boss to just another NPC at hubs. Like Shadowcat, there was likely no way to interpret her shapeshifting powers in a beat-em-up game.

We are led to believe it's Angel, since he's captured and a cutscene shows him being turned into Archangel, the last Horseman of Apocalypse. In reality, there were two traitors, Destiny only foresaw one. The other traitor was Beast, who's been captured and rescued by your party, as part of Apocalypse's plan since he was brainwashed to be The Mole.

comment
Nerf: In the first game, Magneto is the penultimate boss and has more than enough power to provide a challenge for your four-mutant team; in this one, Mags becomes a playable character, and his powers are toned down so he would not be a God-Tier character. Weirdly, this is an accurate representation of his powers in the comics. Whenever Magneto makes a Heel–Face Turn, it's always accompanied by him being powered down by some contrived plot device, simply so he doesn't curb stomp the rest of the X-Men's rogues gallery, few of whom even approach his normal power levels. Storm is also toned down a bit in the second game. For example, her lightning bolt comes directly from her and not the sky, meaning she can no longer hit enemies not in her line of sight. Jean Grey is also nerfed. No more clearing rooms with boosted Psychic Scream. At least not without the proper equipment. Inverted with Nightcrawler. In the first game, his greatest asset to the party is as a CPU-controlled character who can Leap of Faith members out of danger as his actual offense is really weak, based entirely around teleportation. In the second game, he has an incredibly useful dash attack, can use teleporting as a double jump, and his Master of Chaos super is very handy in boss fights with a lot of mooks. Master of Chaos is also THE single most effective boss killing Extreme in the game. Whereas other Extreme attacks are AoE blasts (or wide Cones in the case of Cyclops) Master of Chaos has Nightcrawler zapping around the field, attacking enemies. But if there is only one enemy on the screen....each and every single attack homes in on that enemy for HUGE damage.
