    I think the premise of this could make for a helluva game. Playing as the bad guys is always more fun anyways.

    The Arkham games were fun, but their attempts to pretend that Batman wasn't actually killing people with those utterly brutal takedowns were always ridiculous. The worst was the hilarious Batmobile levels against "robot cars".

    Being a bunch of scumbag super-villains allows players to have fun while also getting to feature all the League as heroes using all their powers (many of which would be very difficult to translate into player controlled gameplay)

    Howabout a game where you play Joker and your controller becomes unresponsive during high stress moments and you have to sit and watch your character torture and kill people with no way to stop.
    Doesn't that sound like fun!?

    For the people interested in the game, I hope you enjoy it. Personally, I couldn't care less. I hate playing the bad guys in games for the most part. Oh well.

I mean, i jump into things like that all the time.i mean, i like superman for a reason. If this was about snyder superman. Why would i put in royalty thing? The guy is all about hope, muh! Family emblem... Etc. Moreover and if anything , that was just more about siegel and shuster's superman, really. Bullying back bullies is his thing. Snyder superman just mops around(especially in bvs) . He doesn't bully back anything . Finally, when did Snyder's superman put in blood, sweat and tears into anything? Maybe during flight.

    Even between general audience, they've usually see him as the "Big good guy".

    Many people who complaints about messiah Superman won't want a violent and hair trigger Superman either.


    PS: Not that I will like the version of Superman you will like (he sounds just as a bully to me).
    Yeah! My superman is more siegel and shuster's, Morrison's superman. If that's trigger happy i would take it over the wet towel.Also, one punch man in general does good job at putting so called "underdogs" lusting power for personal vengeance or glory in their place .i had come to terms with the nonsense, my superman is never gonna be what's served to me. Good news is ip can still produce other characters like jon kent or conner from young justice.I like clark being bully.Sometimes, a bully can do more good than goody twoshoes guy who never gets involved or hands dirty.

    Nothing in particular, just putting forth my observations about general idea that Superman is uberpowerful god.

Flight in particular is problematic to balance in any game that isn't tailored specifically to it.

    A SS game is conceptually better than a JL (or Avengers) game because most of the heroes have more grounded powers, though it still won't be as perfectly tailored as the Spiderman or Batman games.
    Superman alone has this problem because he has both flight and super speed. So many games have worlds that feel so small with him. Add Flash and Green Lantern and it’s a no brainer to go in a different direction

    I mean, I didn't think it was too egregious in terms of keeping the character's core intact without having to be so precise with the gameplay and it let people have fun with it .

    Arkham Knight actually had a sequence where you play as Joker.

    Yeah, I wasn't even thinking about Flash and GL too. The JL power set is just way to diverse, even when compared to the Avengers.

    Yeah my initial kneejerk reaction was "**** this," but since it's going to be the JL in general I'm more willing to see where this goes.

    Wanting a Rocksteady Superman game for so long and the first thing they do is put a target on his head for the promotion of a Suicide Squad game is a serious kick to the balls though.

    I feel like its based on the DC Rebirth story Justice League vs Suicide Squad. The purple on the poster suggests Eclipso.

    The best possibility is if the story based itself on JL vs SS Comic Book. The worst, DC hate JL because they don't make money.

    It sounds horrible. I mean if you're playing Joker then damnit you should get to do the torture and killing! If you can't play the fun parts then what's the point?

    Obviously if you get to play the Joker I'm pretty sure that you will be able to do all the torture and killing you want. Can't wait to play out the Death in the Family and Killing Joke levels!
