The only other younger here I could really see getting in from the new generation is Miles.

Hell no, Nick Fury won't be white in this or anything else.
In the comics, Nick Fury Sr (the original) has basically gone away even in the original 616 to be replaced by his son, Nick Fury Jr (who is black and looks like royalty free SLJ). And it's been that way for at least five years now. No fan, writer, or anyone else wants to bring back Nick Sr... nobody really gave a shit about him all the decades prior.
Seriously, what the hell was that? There was like 3 trailers? A voice actors video? 20 minute presentation And we still dont know anything about the game except that theyre all white(and green)They were too busy figuring out how to make the most confusing presentation possible to think about adding POC.
Talk for yourself. I never wanted the real Fury to go (And I wasn't alone when that happened) just because they adapted Samuel L Jackson Ultimate Version in the movies and then they created that terrible Nick Fury Jr in one of the lazy things I ever saw on comics.
I liked the Ultimate version and all, but I would prefer if they just revelead that Fury was always black instead of making the 616 version to just disappear, while putting Jr there just because of cross media, which Marvel loves to do. It was shitty how they did it.
Why can't all of The Avengers be POC? If they aren't using the likeliness of any of the movie people, why the heck bother with creating a bunch of boring white people. It wouldn't hurt for a non-white person to be able to see themselves in a big superhero game protagonist.
Person of Color. Everyone in the trailer was white.

It seems completely wild to me that after the massive success of Black Panther, Avengers Endgame and even Aquaman, the people at Square Enix decided to go with an exclusively white Avengers team. Even the OG Avengers movie at the very least featured Nick Fury, but Square proudly showed off a game in 2019 with 0 PoC and even threw in another white character as a stinger., What the actual hell is happening at the studio?
Is this a serious thread?
The trailer doesn't show any humans besides the Avengers. It barely shows anything of what the game is even about.
It seems to me that they are starting with what is the most recognizable line-up of the Avengers due to the films (minus Hawkeye), and we know that they'll add more characters, which likely means more diverse heroes as well.
People have speculated that Kamala Khan is the voice that narrates the trailers, and given that she has a line in this latest one about "meeting your heroes" that could still be the case since we don't know who that voice is, but the line would suggest it's a character in game.
Not that it's not an issue in the industry and a potential issue in this game, but this seems too knee-jerk reactionary and a bit too soon imo to leverage serious criticism at.
I was thinking the former? Ethnicity, sexual orientation and gender up for grabs. Very least they could do is make gender and ethnicity customizable on all the heros.Do you mean why don't they change Tony Stark's ethinicity for example or do you mean why dont they use a different line-up with more PoC?

You forgot to mention the white woman is also generic and it all takes place in San Francisco the most generic city in America and they fight on the Golden Gate Bridge the most generic bridge I can think of. Truly a generic game it seems.4 generic white dudes and one white woman. The character they added? Another generic white man.
There isn't a single ounce of creativity in this game.
It was really weird...
Everyone was like a random generic white NPC
The character design is awful
My thoughts exactly, like a bad anime in which you can only differentiate characters by their hair.
I'm sorry, but what about San Francisco is generic?You forgot to mention the white woman is also generic and it all takes place in San Francisco the most generic city in America and they fight on the Golden Gate Bridge the most generic bridge I can think of. Truly a generic game it seems.
that's the thing, it's also not really the movie lineup, because hawkeye is missing, and they showed hank pym, while the movies used Scott Lang.They make a point of not being the movies but they use the movie line up. So weird.
So, white people are boring, poc arent. Got it, I'll be sure to tell all the white people I know how boring they are. Thanks!Why can't all of The Avengers be POC?

You mean phase 2.
Did you not read the hot take I responded to? The word generic has clearly lost all it's meaning on era.
The video game industry in a nutshell.
Games made by straight white males for straight white males.
Pathetic and inexcusable.
It'll be the Hoff version too

Spidey is Sony, probably won't appear in this, maybe in a PS4 exclusive mission.No offense to her, but I doubt many would buy a boring hero like Black Widow as DLC.
Black Panther OTOH... everyone will buy. It makes business sense. Spider-man will be DLC too, bet your ass.
So, white people are boring, poc arent. Got it, I'll be sure to tell all the white people I know how boring they are. Thanks!
The worst thing of this thread is to see someone is acting as white men is the enemy.
It's very worrying.
It's not more about ideology or thinking or culture. It's a label against other labels. It's racism fought with the same racism.
This is a reflection of how Era is seen outside. Hint: it's not a good reflection.
Would have been interesting to change the starting lineup tbh, but even if you absolutely must have Captain America and Iron Man in there, you don't really need to have them be Steve Rodgers or Tony Stark, there have been multiple non-white characters that have take up those mantles over the years. It would be easy.
Avengers Endgame had pretty much zero POC as well, particularly in the marketing.
Is Black Panther even an Avenger in the films, come to think of it? Membership in their organization doesn't seem very well defined.
Spidey is Sony, probably won't appear in this, maybe in a PS4 exclusive mission.
I honestly don't know if these threads are made with genuine concern or if they're just mocking the site's image lol
Spider-Man is in the Switch game though.Spidey is Sony, probably won't appear in this, maybe in a PS4 exclusive mission.
They absolutely have to be troll posts/bait mocking the community. Black Panther not being there (yet) was nowhere near my mind while I was watching that. I both love and hate this place sometimes.
Hell.. Some people think Ms. Marvel was the girl talking. We don't know yet. We don't know anything. We have hardly seen the game but this is what bothers Reset?
It almost offends me that they think we are going to feel like shit if a POC isn't on literally everything we touch. I don't mind playing a white guy sometimes. I really don't...
Edit: There is zero chance that there won't be more representation when the new mcu phase starts. We just need to wait
Nope. OG Avengers here are Cap, Thor, Iron Man, Black Widow and Hulk. No Hawkeye. Also Ant Man is Hank Pym (and he's around the same age as Tony, unlike in the MCU)They make a point of not being the movies but they use the movie line up. So weird.
No, Sony only has the rights for the films.Spidey is Sony, probably won't appear in this, maybe in a PS4 exclusive mission.
