Gosh now that I think about it Black Panther is fuckin' perfect for that kind of game
He's a super acrobatic character so you can easily make him fun to move around with, there's a lot of weight to what he does, he has an enormous supporting cast to tap into
I hope this movie is a huge hit to push something like that along
Yeah like I am constantly mad I don't have my dream Iron Fist game or whatever
But a Black Panther game seems almost tailor made to hit all of the boxes of what publishers want out of their big AAA action games right now while still remaining very true to the character and fuck it would be so cool

Would your dream Iron Fist game be close to Godhand? Not the aesthetic, obviously, but the combat?

I never actually played Godhand so I can't really say
I think something like the Batman combat but more refined and with distinct styles would be ideal.
Also it would have a main story starring Danny but flashback chapters where you played as past Iron Fists which would in turn unlock their specializations for Danny in the main plot

I see, black panther is all about lootboxes and multiplayer you say
Lootboxes sure but the biggest third person action games this year, Shadow of War, AC: Origins, Horizon and Zelda, ain't got no multiplayer!

Humor can be dissected as a frog can, but dies in the process.
I personally believe Nick Spencer is actually a racist and dog-whistles for white supremacy not just a stupid person who happens to write racist things by virtue of simple ignorance and privilege.
There's just... too much underlying support for it. There's too much in the way of malicious clap-backs and sneering and anger. Too many times he's had really shitheaded viewpoints attributed to him. Plus, y'know, the whole racist political campaign he was involved in that he's never decried and won't publicly denounce or comment on.
A person who says dumb things out of ignorance can be demonstrated to be dumb when their response to criticism is equally dumb and tone-deaf. When their response is to, for example, publish racist caricatures of their critics as they sneer at them, there's really not many other conclusions to draw.

I would say that the argument is getting more and more convincing.
I want a base building game where you’re the contractor who makes super villain lairs. So your goal is to come in under budget, match the specific villain’s themes and aesthetics, and account for the powers of the heroes most likely to invade. And it gets harder later on as the heroes start bringing team-ups, or your employer runs afoul of totally new groups of heroes. So you make your badass dungeon for Dr. Doom that should be a hard counter to the Fantastic Four, but oh shit, the 90’s backup F4 showed up instead, and Spider-Man, Wolverine, Ghost Rider, and the Hulk are completely unimpressed by the standard trap array!

Realizing lately that I don't really trust or respect basically any of the moderators here. So, good luck with life, friends! Hit me up on Twitter @DesertLeviathan
one of them is "My roommate made $70 an hour working from home"
This is a... weirdly specific comment trying to emulate a pretty particular form of internet comment spam that is particularly endemic to sites that use the Disqus comment platform
Disqus is super popular but there's very specific sites that use it more than others. Gawker Media sites rely heavily on it, as does...
Breitbart. In fact, Breitbart is famously rotten with these particular kinds of spambots because Breitbart is super light on moderation on account of being, y'know, Breitbart.
Men's Rights Activist and white supremacist site Return of Kings also used Disqus until yesterday, when Disqus discontinued their services after they realized that they're actually a fucking hate site.
Nick Spencer, where you hangin' out on the internet that you see this comment-spam come up often enough that you think this is a killer joke, buddy boy?

So, Dungeon Keeper, but super villain style?

So Evil Genius, but less 60s/70s-spy and more comic book? Fuckin rad.

Thing is, even with the writing on that page, the images of people critiquing the reveal are so unnecessary
The art could have easily included imitations of comment sections/tweets/whatever, it's not like that's out of the ordinary for comics; it would have still been petulant and unfunny but at least not racist
And yet, they chose to use caricatures instead, with all but one or two of them being darker of skin colour than Not Cap here, portraying anyone that disagrees with Spencer as these horrific internet demons
That is an intentional choice, and one that's absolutely disgusting

The other one I would recommend would be the first volume of Christopher Priest's run

no leave it exactly the same but with a male character doing it, like those Quiet/Ocelot model swap mods for MGSV
I see, black panther is all about lootboxes and multiplayer you say
Cool
Super rad
Great work Spencer
Good call publishing this, Marvel
"Dig up, stupid".
spencer is their perfect poster child
Make a Kieron Gillen exception clause and I'm on board
it almost looks like ALL of them are caricatures of people of color
what a funny coincidence
I mean, you can't forget to add "thinskinned baby who cannot take criticism."
His desperate defense of the event was pretty funny, if pathetic, at times.

That's the game I was reminded of!
it's hard to make fun of yourself when you are already a joke
Gawker uses Kinja
Well there you go!
They did use Disqus at one time, my info is clearly out of date as I don't really go to Gawker sites anymore.
Breitbart and RoK absolutely do (did, in RoK's case) use Disqus which uh
uhhhhhh
This is not to say "working from home" bots are unique to Disqus but as a platform they're rotten with them
