What's up everyone OJ here welcome back
to another video
and this one's a little bit different we
have a gaming discussion
slash just talk about different things
uh recently
you guys all know the news mr chadwick
be
the black panther one of the best
actors in the african american community
recently passed away
due to his four-year bout with
colon cancer i mean this guy was a
fighter this guy
was someone who continued to film
numerous movies going through chemo and
going through a lot of pain
and being tired and fighting the weight
loss and just
so much stuff so to see you know
what his struggles were in his last few
days or his last few years
yet considering how amazing he was in
all of the movies like avengers and
in black panther it's just something
that's very inspiring i mean he already
inspired me because to have a black
superhero
is just something that a lot of people
my skin color and a lot of minorities
we want to see that i think it's really
cool so to see him kind of go through
what he did
and how well he did it it just even
gives me more
respect to him and more respect
to uh just everything that he stood for
i mean
he passed away way too early and this
video is very difficult for me to make
but i think it's also
very important i mean 43 is obviously
way too young to be passing away
um and even worse from cancer you know
that's just something that so many
people
have lost their lives to i know a lot of
you guys have had siblings and loved
ones also
lose their lives to cancer but i wanted
to talk about something which
obviously we're going to talk about
games but also about the legacy here but
i think
marvel and video game developers or
publishers
i know square annex has a big marvel
game coming out
they need to do the right thing they're
definitely
100 needs to be a black panther game and
i'm not talking about
him inside marvel avengers which by the
way he wasn't even default
in there you know which is a very
unfortunate considering
how well received the movie was a couple
years back and everything the fact that
he's not a default avenger in theirs
just whatever
and you know we'll see if he comes over
i think he might be
in there at this point but later down
the line but he needs his own game still
to this point man i've been playing
games for 30 plus years
and i've never played a black panther
game black panther's been around for
decades and we haven't gotten anything
at this point
and i think that now more so than ever
marvel
square annex video game publishers
developers whoever wants to get the
license to do a game
definitely needs to make a black panther
game i think it needs to happen
um there are some issues which we're
gonna talk about
maybe this might be a little bit
uncomfortable for some but i think that
it's also
very important that we talk about this
um video game publishers
have been very hesitant to have black
man characters you know as leads
we're not talking about a character in
the game so for example
we have like black panther he's in
marvel ultimate alliance three on the
nintendo switch we're not talking about
that
as a supporting role or whatever the
case is but as the lead role
as you guys will see right here on
screen microsoft actually
vetoed the idea of having a black woman
on the cover of fable 3 because they
felt that that's not going to sell
there's been various other examples that
i can give now that doesn't mean that
there
hasn't been any companies that have
fought against that or don't care
i'm not saying that at all and i'm not
saying that we don't have great black
characters or minority characters in
games that's not what i'm saying
what i'm saying is that publishers and
marketing departments are always very
hesitant
to do so which we just proved with
microsoft right there one of the biggest
out there when it comes to
video games they are a platform holder
and they vetoed the idea for fable three
which i originally thought it was fable
too
but upon further research it was
actually fable 3 getting a black woman
on the cover
of it which i reported before it was
fable 2 but it was fable 3.
but either way the point is this we need
to see a black panther game and we need
to see a black panther game
soon i mean there's so many cool ideas
and things they can do for it i mean if
you've played marvel ultimate alliance 3
black panther is freaking dope in that
game he has such
a cool suit and the background you know
wakanda and everything it's just so cool
super high tech super strength power all
of that speed and agility
it would make a phenomenal game i mean
we
have had many great superhero games
right the spider-man game
is fantastic i had some fun with the
wolverine game it was all right back in
the day
uh we had like the hulk games you know
so there have been some
pretty good superhero games over the
years it's been a lot of bad ones
but there's been a lot of good ones you
know and for me i've enjoyed
the beat-em-up type of superhero game so
the marvel ultimate alliance franchise
has been my favorite over the last
decade or so
going back to the original and even
before that like the x-men legends games
and stuff like that those are always
my favorite ones and now recently we
have the new spider-man game
and then we have miles morales coming
out so those games
look like they're going to be a lot of
fun you know when it comes down to or at
least spider-man
was a lot of fun and miles morales could
even be better
in terms of the combat and the framerate
and everything because it's on the
playstation 5.
so that's going to be a lot of fun but
there's definitely room
for black panther to get his own game
and i think now is the time to
green light something like that and not
a games as a service
not a multiplayer only not a battle
royale not something weird
but an actual full single player
beefy experience like a spider-man
on playstation 4 and miles morales on
playstation 5
something like that or like a batman
game and i take that back superhero
games batman is definitely my favorite
out there i love those games too
batman arkham asylum batman arkham city
those games are just
absolutely amazing and imagine a game
that was in the style of
batman arkham city or batman arkham
asylum
but with black panther and the combat
right and the speed and what you can do
traveling from
wakanda to different areas i mean that
could be something
that could really really galvanize a lot
of players
out there and show the respect that mr
chadwick b
deserves and the black panther franchise
as a
whole and a whole generation of minority
black gamers whatever you want to say
along with just gamers period
it's not just one side or another
there's tons
of people of all colors nationalities
ethnic backgrounds
so many people love black panther and
love the movie and have shown the
support and love
you've seen it from so many people now
is the time to get something greenlit
so in three years or two to three years
we hear something about that
playstation xbox nintendo whatever the
case is so
i'm hoping that somebody at marvel
does the right thing i'm hoping that
gamers push for that type
of respect that the franchise and mr
chadwick b
definitely deserves man because i know i
would love to see it
and i know a lot of you guys would love
to see it when it was proposed to me
on twitter one of my users said i would
pay anything for a black panther game
and i had to quote tweet him and say
yeah man like this is the deal though a
lot of publishers are hesitant with the
lead character being focused around that
character but
at this point i think that those walls
are coming crashing down
i think the industry has changed big
time since
microsoft and what they said back then
and i think that there's a lot of
positive momentum when it comes to
having a variety of characters
and a variety of people inside games so
i'll say this i mean there is always
that group out there which i've dealt
with that says
oh well what does it matter it's just
about the game and you know what
i understand that to a degree but in my
opinion
gaming is about what you see it's about
the world it's based off of real life
and then sometimes you go to fantastical
worlds or whatever but a lot of it
is based off of people and just like
gameplay modes or
just like um i would say weapons or just
like
genres you want to see a variety right
so that's no different
when it comes to the type of people or
the type
of heroes or the type of things you want
to see you want to see a variety of
locations
you want to see a variety of people a
variety of different types of
heroes and you want to see female you
want to see male you want to see
lots of stuff that's why games like
street fighter were
so amazing back in the day because we
always got one type of game
but then they switched it up and said
hey well here's a fighting game
but you get to play as chun li you get
to play as a woman
and she's from china and then we have
warriors from
jamaica with dj and mexico with tihawk
and russia
you know with zangief and japan and
america and it was so cool because
you traveled to all these different
places and saw different types of people
that emulate what you would see in the
world which make
better variety which makes for a better
engaging experience so
i think that's kind of how i feel uh
with the black panther game and why
there needs to be one having that
variety there
and honoring mr chadwick b um in the
best way
in terms of gaming that we could
possibly have and i know his family
and his kids would absolutely love that
and it would be a great way to continue
his legacy
and bring the black panther franchise up
there with a lot of the
other franchises in the mcu so i'm
hoping
that this gets done at some point and i
think that
it would just be super cool if that was
the case so what are you guys's thoughts
on this would you like to see a black
panther game
what type of combat or game play or
ideas could you sketch
up for this style of game i know for me
man having that style like batman arkham
asylum that type of free-flowing combat
i think that would be
great for a black panther game but then
also have some segments
to where like you can kind of jump
around like spider-man and kind of go
through areas i think it would be dope
if it was a nice little hybrid but what
are you guys thoughts
