Only Wonder Woman can prevent Armageddon, Devastation, Genocide, and Decay from being the first 4 steps in world annihilation.
Gameplay
The gameplay will be similar to God of War. Instead of a shield, Wonder Woman can use her bracers to shield from attacks, deflect attacks, absorb attacks, and then redirect it as a directed concussion blast and eventually as an expansive concussion blast within a certain area.
Instead of the chains, she can use her Golden Lasso as a weapon. It can be upgraded to extend its reach, its damage, and is required for some platforming sections. I would like to somehow incorporate its truth abilities into combat, but I'm not sure how without it being cheesy. However, it can obviously be an important part of her information collecting skillset.
Wisdom of Athena - Similar to the Spidey Sense in Spider-Man, it alerts Diana to oncoming threats or targets that are offscreen.
Super-Jump Smash - Diana can super jump and land on the ground incapacitating enemies within a certain radius. / After thinking about it, I like the idea of a Hermes Dash instead. She uses this super-speed dash to as an attack for enemies. She is temporarily invulnerable as she does this. This move can be upgraded to go further, quicker, and turn Wonder Woman into a human missile.
Similar to Tomb Raider, Diana can speak multiple languages. This is needed for information gathering and finding special collectibles for the Smithsonian Museum
There are Diana Prince sections. This includes the Smithsonian where she works with Dr. Barbara Ann and Etta Candy. Maybe in this game, Steve can be a respected private investigator. In the Diana Prince sections, information gathering is more important. She is mostly trying to discover more about the 4 Horsewomen, how to stop them prevent Ares, and connect Maxwell Lord to this dastardly scheme, so he can be imprisoned for war crimes. (This section can also be for world-building like she must talk to Dr. Poison because Decay releases a toxin that kills livestock and vegetation. She must meet with Veronica Cale or Julia for information regarding their former business partner Maxwell Lord, or maybe she must go to a concert of the Holliday Girls because the survivor of a Devastation attack is there,etc. This section should have a lot of treats for long term fans.
Diana can heal thru the use of Purple Ray Crystals that she collects.
Once she visits a location, she can return at any time thru the use of her Invisible Jet.
Locations
I see Wonder Woman as the world's hero. As a result, each Horsewoman is located in a different location either real-world or imagined. Each location will be free-roaming and offer chances for both action and a chance to speak to the people of that particular location. It will also offer chances for exploration including collectibles Diana can bring to the Smithsonian.
Wonder Woman would obviously be based in D.C. However D.C. can be limited to the National Mall and maybe some form of transportation - magical or real - to Diana's home - may be in Georgetown.
Boss Battles
An introductory boss battle with Giganta before the story truly gets moving.
There can also be side boss battles with Major Disaster and Mayfly - an assassin hired by Maxwell Lord.
The major boss battles will be with the 4 Horsewomen and Ares as the final boss.
There will be an end teaser with Circe commenting that everything went according to her plan.
Genre
The main game will be mostly a 1st person narratively driven third-person action-adventure with skillset abilities that can be equipped and upgraded.
There will be an Amazing Amazons multiplayer section. Here up to 4 (maybe 5) players can choose between Wonder Woman, Nubia, Artemis, Grace Choi, and Yara. These will be small sections where you are given an objective you must complete. Some of these objectives can have boss fights at the end.
The platinum trophy can be titled: Agent of Peace or Sensational Amazon
