25 %

The silence that worries fans

Dominant take
20 %

After the reveal, the prolonged absence of gameplay and repeated delays (2025 then 2026) fuel growing worry about whether the game truly exists, or fears of cancellation.

Gameplay as the ultimate judge

Dominant take
18 %

A constant refrain: cinematics impress but guarantee nothing, everything hinges on gameplay footage that still hasn't been shown.

« You can never do too wrong with cinematics, but Gameplay on the other hand! That's what will determine the fate of this game. »

Khary Payton and Amy Hennig, safe bets

Dominant take
12 %

Casting Khary Payton as Black Panther and having Amy Hennig (Uncharted) attached reassure a large part of the community about the expected narrative quality.

« Whoever did the voice for Black Panther give that guy a retainer. He beautifully captures the sense of "royalty" that Chadwick Boseman (RIP) gave the character. »
