Why the fuck does Batman get all the good video games?
Why is there no good Superman game yet?

Too hard to design a game around him

Superman games are doomed to be shit.
He has to be a playable character in a general DC game, that's the closest you'll ever get to a good Superman game.

Fuck off, /co/.
Superman only works as a video game character when you have some other character to compare him to, solo games will never work unless you're just fighting Doomsday clones for all eternity.

And that just sounds boring.

>>320584985
Because capeshits are fucking boring.
At least Bamham has no broken superpowers and has to rely on relatively grounded in reality gadgets.

Batman is the most human of most super heroes. It's easy to make a game where he's just fighting dudes. Who do you make supermans enemies? He's unbeatable versus most average goons.

Shit, ultimate destruction would be a fine video game for superman except that supes is never a bad dude. With hulk the rationale is that he isnt really in control while in that state so you just go nuts.

Supes' only fault is that he is literally unable to help EVERYONE and that drama works out in comics, but for vidya, nah.

Superman fights foes at a cosmic level, he has to be strong, he can by killed by someone stronger than him, they just have to be as retardedly strong as he is.

That said most capeshit gets pretty fucking stupid once you go cosmic, theres not much fun in two guys who can move planets throwing punches at each other.

I've always found my self rooting for the badguys whenever I've been exposed to american superhero media.
The entire thing feels like a fantasy presented from the view point of the hero. Where the villain is as one dimensional and evil as a totalitarian state would paint it's enemies.
Maybe I haven been exposed to the good stuff but the entire setup feels poisoned to me.
A guy using his new found powers to fight crime does not fit my experience with hoe regular people react to having great power be dropped in their lap.
The way vilains use their powers for personal gain strikes me as more human than the pure justice of the heroes.

Because Superman's powers were designed by the mind of an autistic 5 yrs old. Its too difficult to think an entire game where he would actually be in danger or vulnerable. That's why most of his games have a health bar on the city/person to protect

Kryptonite is just debris from krypton.

That's how retarded superman's writers are.

The only thing that weakens him is something that his native planet was MADE of.

>mfw being a Superman fan is suffering

With Batman v Superman coming up I can at least take solace in knowing that Supes warns Batman that if he wanted to he could kill him in a heartbeat. I'm sure people will still rally with Batman because "HURR DURR MUH BATMAN".
>>
>>320589335
I think the Joker was handled pretty damn well in his most previous film appearance. He was chaotic neutral to the core. His character was interesting because he was written in a way that made him feel like a genuine nutcase that didn't adhere to logic, without being campy about it. Yeah he was evil, but there was no real goal, he was just having a fucked sense of 'fun', and was smart enough to pull off the crazy shit he wanted to do.

Honestly, name a better villain in a movie. There aren't many. I can't even think of a more entertaining and interesting one off the top of my head.
>>
>>320584985
But Batman has never had a good game

It's irradiated debris from krypton. Which is still stupid, but there's more to it than just being rocks from his home planet.

>>320589217
Superman jobs to magic as much as anyone in universe. Plus you have near crazy strong guys like Doomsday or Mongul who on par with him physically with the former actually killing. Darkseid and any of the New Gods could do the same.

But naw man you're so cool for your popular albeit misinformed opinion, hold onto it for dear life.

From a villain standpoint in the movie yes I agree with you. Joker in the comics now is back to his "LOL I'm so evil" persona that Snyder has even given him an origin as an extrademnsional being. it's so ridiculous how everyone tries to make their own character when it's pretty simple NOT to mess up even if it's still a bit boring.

Sorry no one likes your boring as fuck and flat superhero that is undeadable and has a bunch of ultra-retarded powers that make no sense and don't have an ounce of entertainment factor to them.

Honestly, superman is the kind of shit that reminds me of pic related. Sure, Batman isn't very realistic, but he's a shitload more relateable and down to earth than 'Hurrr muh space rock blood makes me the undeadable super power of the universe that can never ever be defeated!1! xD'

He is still more relateable than the Mary Sue faggot that is Superman. Heroes you can't relate to on some level are fucking boring. Superman could own the fucking universe if he wanted to because nothing but retarded glowing rocks can stop him. Fucking nothing. Where is the conflict? Any and all problems are indescribably petty for someone that is impervious to all perils and can overpower all obstacles and people in his path.

It's just how ridiculously inhuman he is, both in ability and behaviour. No human with that amount of power is going to be some selfless paragon. At least Batman had some stake in the town he was protecting, and has personal motives for hating criminals other than them being criminals. Superman is a hero just for the fuck of it.

No person with that kind of power would ever behave remotely like Superman. Humans can't even handle legislative power without causing mass oppression and genocide. Imagine if someone was impervious to any and all means of physical and biological retaliation; Let alone having physically impossible levels of speed, strength, endurance, dexterity, and a host of abilities that make no sense like fucking laser beam eyes and flight.

They'd take over the fucking world without a second thought and force anyone that was still left alive to live how they wanted people to live. There's just no fucking 'hook' as to why he's 'good', let alone good all the fucking time. Eventually teh temptation to make the world the way he thinks it ought to be would overwrite whatever 'morality' his adoptive parents taught him.

Dude, Supes is never tempted to do anything evil in the slightest. How can you possibly relate to something that is not only worlds apart from you in terms of power but also never feels temptation or something like that.

A superman game should have an open world.

A literal entire planet to explore.

The story would have to be kryptonians have come from another dimension or have somehow revived and taken over the planet.
Otherwise there is like no challenge for the man of steel.

It is up to superman to defeat them across all continents. Braniac and Doomsday would show up along the way with Luther's robot giving him shit all the time.

DLC would be Batman vs. Superman

You start as young superman and as you 'level up' you age instead gaining abilities until you are superman in his prime.
This also allows for a level 1 challenge mode where you beat the game at like age 15 with no flight and just martial skills along with the environment to beat enemies.

How about he gets small amounts of krypton it straight to the bloodstream or something and starts with almost no power, then as he somehow starts to get the kryptonite out of his body over the course of the game he 'levels up' and starts becoming stronger and getting certain abilities back?

Sounded cooler in my head till I realized leveling up would basically be the equivalent of going to get dialysis treatments or something.

>>320591645
Don't forget his real superpower, his fucking plot armor

>>320592347

That idea works, but I also prefer aging because it shows character progression which is one of my favorite things in games.

Like starting with cloth armor and ending the game in some godly plate gear.

Your idea is probably easier to implement. If you said the world is ending in a week and he slowing gets over kryptonite poisoning over the course of the game to save the world.
