@sorrytotweet I mean I feel like this Tweet is more about AVATAR fans who want to play the Avatar game (a series known for having dogshit video games) and not fighting game players.
@FreakLordAbove Because they are THE 4 person Marvel Team, one of their most important teams that get shafted from fighting games and their powers are cool.
@BeesFear And he was in 2 because he was in Marvel Superheroes, at a point in time when MARVEL was unaware of Shuma’s existence and if they had the licensing. “Nobody knew who Black Panther was” isn’t a good excuse.
@MokaBr3ad I feel like the only way you can say the worst thing about the pageant is the girls wearing swimsuits is if you ignore how Kanji treats Naoto and the general lack of respect for boundaries the guys have for the girls during the event.
@caribAmerican “Replacing him everywhere else.”
> is Black Panther in the comics
> is Black Panther in Rivals
> is Black Panther in Cosmic Invasion
> is Black Panther in the MTG set with multiple T’Challa BP cards.
@caribAmerican Oh no, the gameplay trailer that had Steve fight only other team leaders had him do combos on Storm, you know part of THE GAME.
Y’all are looking for reasons to be offended at this point and it’s frankly pathetic.
@caribAmerican TIL it’s racism to have a black character you don’t personally want on the roster.
Also love that y’all took a MIRROR MATCH line so personally.
@caribAmerican There’s also no Japanese men, Pakistani men or Latina on the roster. Trying to act like Tokon is anti-black because it’s not to your specific liking is ridiculous.
@caribAmerican It’s very clear that companies give less attention to racially based decisions than you’d like.
But the game has two black women, a Japanese girl, a Latino man and a Pakistani girl. It’s clear that they are looking to diversify the roster in movesets and looks already.
@caribAmerican Even then, Sam has gotten more than a lot of characters (including some that I’d wager are actually more popular than him). When you’re dealing with an IP with 1000+ characters you’re going to have some characters miss out on stuff.
@caribAmerican I mean that’s the unfortunate nature of being a “legacy” character to such an iconic mantle. Miles is barely in video games too and he’s blown up way more than Sam ever has. Same with Laura and Logan.
@caribAmerican They need big names for the game too, otherwise they would have replaced people like Storm too.
Steve Rogers is a bigger Captain America than Sam ever really has been, and Cap is one of Marvel’s biggest heroes.
@caribAmerican They said they wanted to use characters who hadn’t really had a chance to be in fighting games before which is like half the roster lmao.
Danger, Magik, Kamala, Robbie, Carnage, Gobbie, Peni, Star-Lord, Shuri.
