Yeah, i guess.

really weird how much media has de-emphasized T’challa as Black Panther

That's my GOAT, so it pisses me off

It's like Disney/Marvel pissed Chad hid his condition from them and been on some petty shyt trying to bury the character he played while still wanting to profit off the brand.

Before I get hyped, I need to know is this more Arkham or is this more.......Last of Us?

And also, just how much depth is the combat gonna have if you're developing for 5+ different characters types (weapons/gadgets/etc) and we're locked into that choice for the duration of the play-through?

It'd be like limiting Kratos to only his Chaos Blades, then creating two other characters to give his ice axe and spear too, and limiting which ones get to use the rage and the hilt abilities. All because you don't want the game to revolve around the cash cow of the game.

They don't have anything against T'challa. Yall just gotta accept the fact that hes on the level of spiderman now.
And what do they do with spiderman, Just keep it Peter Parker? No they want a whole spiderverse of spiderman characters. Miles, Spiderwoman, Spidergwen, 2099, spiderpunk etc.
They are trying to expand black panther into a franchise not just a solo character. They see the money in it. They want a black panther verse.

How you gonna have black panther verse when we only had one solo movie with the actual black panther?

WHat do you mean how? You see happening before your eyes. People are acting like the studio hates black panther. All i see is a studio trying to expand the character into a franchise. They planning a dora milage tv show literally called the world of wakanda or some shyt. There goal is clearly to establish every character in the black panther mythos as mainstream.

Make a 1960 something Hydra Game with Uncle Ben teaming up with Captain America :unimpressed::comeon:

Maybe you need to understand that no matter how popular Black Panther gets, he’s still a negro and the gaming industry and Hollywood by extension is still racist as fukk

And btw, it’s not about accepting that he’s at Spider-Man level… it’s because he’s at Spider-Man’s level (or can be) that we advocate for Spider-Man treatment… like Insomniac’s Spider-Man game that was exclusively Peter Parker centric

And even SpiderMan 2 with Miles was still a Peter Parker story

Annnnd Peter stars as Spider-Man in 100% of the live action movies. So what are we even talkin about

Yeah, and it’s corny to erase a character that hasn’t been properly established to the wider audience. T’Challa is the black panther

the death of T’challa is like a big part of who this character is now in pop culture because its so tied to Chadwick‘s death now. Imagine if they killed superman and now everyone is superman because of christopher reeves death

He was the same one giddy as fukk when Shuri was gonna star in the movie. So he wasn’t tapped in to the Black Panther character anyway

Talkin out his ass

No it wasn't. They gave miles his own spinoff and made him more powerful than peter in the sequel.
"live action"is a strange quantifier. Sonys second biggest property right now is the miles universe.

They are not neglecting Black Panther, they are trying to expand.

But anyway, need more news because this idea of splitting the narrative between 5 characters comes across as lame

Still perpetuating Disney’s narrative (see Nate Moore) that Black Panther was never about TChalla and it’s just a mantle/replaceable

No, i was happy that they didn't try to erase Chadwicks legacy to the character right away like you guys wanted
I think that with a multiverse in play recasting isn't necessary, You can keep chadwick Canon, and bring in a new t'challa from another dimension.
You don't have to force to audience to pretend another person was there the whole time,, Like we have to do with Rhodey every time they reference something that happened in Iron Man 1 to don cheadle. It sucks.
