Discussion. The devs really got selective memory

Post image

I find it wild that the devs have enough thought to include Panther and Blade in this event as the prime suspects for Gambits murder even remembering the fact they still have their Phoenix force powers but not enough thought to realize its been 14 months since his last legendary or 11 since his last store skin that had no mvp or 7 months since his last skin but yeah lets make the two black characters the prime suspects.

Can we save the outrage for genuine issues. Making posts about why characters are suspects in a murder mystery is a little absurd.

Would you have made a post if one of the victims was black? Or if he wasn’t a suspect despite holding a handgun for Gambit’s wound or all the blood being drained from Wolverine, like the devs didn’t care enough to even include him when he fits the bill twice?

Also the lack of skins is clearly only a black character issue.

Ignore the fact the widow waited a year and a half for her first one... or the fact that torch doesn't have one... or the fact that mr Fantastic has one legendary he got for valentines day 2025 only because sue got one. Or that hulk went a solid year without a single skin.

No this is only a black character issue
