Will there ever be another Superman game?
will it ever be good?

>Will there ever be another Superman game?
Probably not. Not with him as the main focus anyway.
>will it ever be good?
I sincerely doubt it. It's hard to make a game about an emotionally well-adjusted demigod
>>339660092
Superman is way too OP
Not to mention he's one of the most boring heroes out there
>>339660092
Can't top the best

>he's one of the most boring heroes out there
Only when he's written poorly. All-Star Superman is one of the greats
Where's the fun in playing a god?

Nothing fazes Superman. SUPERMAN, that is. And if he were some self-serving character whose priorities began and ended with himself that certainly would make him a boring character (and an unlikable dickwad).
As it happens, however, Superman is the kind of guy to put other people above himself. People who can be hurt. People who can die. Superman is strong and fast and everything but he is still one man. Superman's flying above and looks down and on two opposite sides of the city one person's falling to their death and the other is being actively held at gunpoint. Superman can save one of them but he can't save both of them. This is magnified a bunch of times now that Superman is global. He's a guy who has to deal with the Trolley Problem (google it) every minute of every day for EVERY PERSON on the planet.
Not to mention he has to constantly keep his powers in check. Hits a dude just hard enough to knock him out when he could decimate his skull with one finger. He's an artillery cannon in a world made of glass.
And you jokers think that's EASY?

Watch your mouth, I like Superman
Being an emotionally well-adjusted demigod doesn't make him a boring character

Just make it a space adventure.

I would rather a Silver Surfer game for thatAnnihilation game never ;__;
>>339662206
Where do you think you are
>>339661858
You're essentially a god in most games anyway, it'd be easy to make there's just no interest.
>>339661443
Cool meme

>I literally don't know shit about Superman
Nice one

FTFY

Some people prefer a less powerful character because they're usually taking a much greater risk than someone like Superman, also they're easier to relate to
>>339660092
I want them to use the Just Cause 3 engine. Best flying engine that I've ever seen, along with a fantastic destruction engine.
take a look at how fucking horrid Saints Row 4 was with fucking super powers and shit. where losing and challenge literally isn't a factor.
that's a fucking superman game for you
>but Superman is op, it'd never work!
Take away most of Superman's powers and slowly give them back to him, a la Metroid. Problem solved.
>>339666595
>let me just create some problems to dilute the original problem
All a Superman game needs is enemies equal to or stronger than him
has there EVER been a good superman game?
Spiderman is objectively the best hero to make a game around.
>>339662206
Says the videogame player.
>>339660092
Make it like God of War or Asura's Wrath.
There, you got a great Superman game.
>>339669175
You spelled Batman wrong. Spidey is second and that's a fact.
>>339668969
Superman Returns was the closest we got
>>339661671
All-Star Superman is not what Superman is about. It's a tribute to the Weisenger era. People who don't read a lot of comics have mistaken it for some kind of definitive story when that's not what it's meant to be.
If you want what Superman is REALLY like, read Birthright. Sums up what the character is in the modern age very well.
Superman is fucking gay, so who fucking cares
>>339661443
Superman is cool.
>>339669402
I'm going to agree with you on the basis that they have yet to make another spiderman game right, i.e in the vain of spiderman 2
>>339669852
To continue with this, there's absolutely no reason Superman in a game needs to be able to go light speed and lift skyscrapers.
To take an example most people would be familiar with, look at the Justice League cartoon. He's significantly powered down but still distinctly Superman.
So for a Superman game, you don't need to do some sort of crazy weird gameplay mechanic. Just make a game where you can fly around and smash shit. The game Shadow of Apokolips was actually very close to what it should be, but it was held back by shitty controls and limited technology.
Ironically, the casuals championing All-Star are just reinforcing the perception of Superman as an unrelatable god.

>implying a game about The Question wouldn't be infinitely superior
Think about this my niggas
>you are The Question
>you patrol Hub City which is as much an absolute SHITHOLE as it appears in the comics
>over the course of the game you discover a massive Deus Ex-type conspiracy, despite The Question being an unreliable narrator and the player not believing him for like 2/3rds of the game
>the player doesn't believe him because he sees Malkavian-like shit everywhere because The Question is fucking crazy
>batshit insane fetch quests that actually end up tying into the main quest
>mixes in aspects from Denny O'Neil's run too like his Zen philosophy and the insane racism in Hub City
>still no open-world Dredd game where you dispense The Law in Mega-City One
