"He's too powerful for games" is just a lame excuse. Every superheroes are all too powerful, yet they make it work. "Too powerful and it won't work" can be applied even in comics, movies, animations etc., yet they make it work.

[@mako3271]

As long as you include lesser-used villains like Livewire, Prankster, Neutron and more importantly Toyman, then I'm onboard. 😁👍

[@JamieAllen1977]

A proper superman game needs to focus on Clark Kent w/ Louis Lane uncovering stories, with Kent trying to keep his secret from the world. That way you get to be superman SOMETIMES, but have to do smart things to keep the secret.

[@mako3271]

@@JamieAllen1977 That is also a good idea. 😁👍 Maybe also add in some puzzles to solve, in terms of Lois and Clark unlocking something or activating something, as well?

[@JamieAllen1977]

@@mako3271 of course; and superman comes in to fight the villiians; when a Lillian is weak, supermans concerns is safety of civilians ; that kind of thing; superman wouldn't have to be all about how OP he is; but how smart you'll have to be to use it.

[@BooToob]

I think what people need to understand is that just because superman is super strong, doesn't mean he HAS to use his power all of the time. Like One Punch Man like you referenced in the video.

[@gibbs615]

Ya know there was a time when he didn't have his powers and still proved himself to be quite a survivor. That was in Justice League TAS!

[@SadotTheGamer]

True. In fact Superman regularly holds back to avoid killing and causing too much collateral damage

[@jonathanmckinney7538]

All they have to do is make villains on Superman level, Jesus , it’s not that damn hard.

[@kimromero4497]

@LetMeTellYouSomething thing is, how does he take damage? Bullets don't hurt him, fire is useless, bombs are ineffective. Unless everyone has kryptonite (which is an incredibly rare substance) or everyone has magic, he just can't be touched. And not that many people has magic. So bank robberies, burning buildings, car thefts, non of them have any stakes.

[@olofacosta3192]

@@Mr.PR2000 exactly bro. I'm tired of these guys with their lazy takes lol. A Superman is possible and would be awesome

[@jdp3578]

You could have different "stances" for superman in the sense that when dealing with normal enemies, he could use just shoves and grapples to disable enemies instead of hitting them full force. And when tougher enemies show up, you change stance and show more power/moves. His abilities could scale with each stance as well. Heat vision enough to just burn someone's hand, scales up to a beam that cuts, too eventually an optic blast. And speed could be interpreted differently, one speeds up your character, while another version just slows down your perception of time.

[@SadotTheGamer]

Those are awesome details!

[@Marcustheseer]

also give superman a speech check so he can persuade robbers to stand down or you can knock them out,this way you have a choice of how to approach it.

[@SaruKishin]

I myself have even considered having Lex as one of the main villains. And you know Lex... you can easily write or create the story to where he has his own armada or mercenaries and he decides to outfit them with some top notch gear or outfits similar to his suit that he uses to go up against Supes or maybe not even as huge and bulky if he's outfitting regular troops, but have them equip kryptonite weapons and all and the tougher troops would be the said bulky suit guys and such. Im sure there are ideas, I just dont know why they dont do it. I assume it will be one of those things that if they try, its the fans that will be bitching left and right cuz you can never please anybody. Like "this is stupid! Superman should be able to do this or that!" blah blah blah

[@b1bbscraz3y]

Superman would make a good souls game

[@scetchmonkey007]

Yeah I was thinking the same thing, but one issue with the game is how much freedom do you give this superman. So easy to be destructive, would players be able to switch stance at will and accidentally hurt people or would superman have these stances locked as appropriate for each mission. I'd go with the full freedom to play an Evil superman Tyrant, and let the game world react to the decisions you make. IE the end fight of an evil superman would be to subjugate or kill all other heroes Injustice style. OR for end game Good superman, go All star superman, rehabilitate Lex Luthor and fly into the sun.

[@calebterry8747]

We could really give him magic enemies to fight. Then you won’t have the problem with him holding back against his foes and he also has a reason to be harmed by the enemies while it not making him weaker by just being around him

[@TheUnseenPath]

Make like powerhouse enemies as well.

[@silverpslm]

I like how you're not too far off from what I had in mind. In regards to bosses in the game, here's my thought. 1. Toy man, or someone basic to introduce you to the boss fight mechanics. 2. Metallo- Introduces you to the kyrytonite mechanic, that limits your abilities and weakens your attacks. Also a pre Lex Luthor fight. Linking to Lex Luthor being the villain. 3. Parasite- Boss that drains your health, and you have to defeat him quickly. Minion like Parasite will show up, along with Metallo minions that you will see in open world. 4. Bizarre clone- Boss that mimics your attacks, but isn't weakened the same way you are, and you must find a way to weaken him. 5. Mr. Mistiplyxk- He alters reality and messes with your strength and abilities at random. 6. Livewire- A Boss dealing with speed and timing. Getting from one place to another. 7. Lex Luthor- A combination of all villains, but also a Boss that gives you quick side missions. 8. Doomsday- Secret Boss Fight. Too OP and involves you making the right choices at the right time.

[@edge1247]

I feel like Doomsday should be a sequel game where he shows up at the beginning and just smashes the upgraded Superman from the previous game, and you'll have to go from there.

[@Thegamingbros401]

Ok ok now hears my rebuttal……………………TAKE MY MONEY!!!!!!!!!

[@nerdofgames1608]

Toyman, Parallax, and Livewire have zero to do with being Superman villains. Also, there exist a game to show you every DC Superhero/Villain you can imagine: DC Universe Online. (DCUO) Not the best game but not the worst either.

[@silverpslm]

@nerdofgames1608 First off, I had no idea I wrote the wrong name down. I meant Parasite. Thanks for that. Second, Livewire and Toyman have been involved with Superman several times. Especially in TAS. But mainly Toyman would just be a first throwaway character to show off Supermans abilities and strength to overpower him in some way, that would be different from other characters shown. Easy Battle. Livewire would be to show off his speed, but could be show in other ways potentially. Each villain would try to be unique to showcase Supermans game play more so. If it were ever made.

[@LeathafaceTV]

Let play as Clark Kent and have separate storyline with Lois would be great too. Like a love story that ties in with the Superman storyline. Like he have a time limit to defeat a certain villain or situation because he gotta meet Lois for a dinner date or event.

[@gangofheroes]

I always said for years that a Superman game would be as hard as people say but you have to come at it from the right angle and like you basically said starting off from an origin start point is the way to go but I had it where you start of with a few of his abilities such as super strength, super speed, super jump and super breathe as a nod to the very early days of golden age Superman but you will unlock his other powers through specific missions like his freezing breath which would unlock with an encounter that relies on you to use it to rescue people with in and would lead into a boss battle with Parasite who is a villain that is too dangerous to touch as he can absorb powers and energy so the battle mechanic would be built around encasing him in ice to damage him and avoiding physical contact with him trying to grapple and drain Superman, also other powers like his X-ray vision could be used to solve puzzles and discover clues that lead to a mission or unlockables.

[@kingsway731]

With lex Luther as the villain, they could create some really interesting strategies and quests. He always puts Superman in a dilemma

[@christophertelesford7579]

I love the idea of Superman being involved all over the world and facing intergalactic threats. I would suggest Superman being able to use more of his speed outer space or even in the upper atmosphere.

[@matthewmckinney9471]

You just described the perfect Superman game

[@terrencekworld]

I think a AAA Superman game should take some inspiration from sonic frontiers because of those Super Sonic boss fights. I think spectacle like that combined with a high budget could make for one heck of a Superman game. 🔥

[@SadotTheGamer]

For sure. Especially against giant enemies

[@zephyrsonzephyrson8618]

This is the best Superman game idea I have heard, to date. I had an idea where the game could be more investigative, than straight-up "Superman/Metropolis sandbox" as you stated. So, my idea would have a lot of Clark and Lois' work for The Daily Planet, solving problems and mysteries, sort of like the George Reeves' episodes, but obviously with a modern take. Or maybe it could be retro? Season 1 of The Adventures of Superman was often gangster driven. Anyways, we certainly need something far more textured than a game like Superman Returns, where it feels like it is mainly fighting robots. I would much rather a game that followed the story of Superman The Movie (1978) than what we've seen in the past. But as I say, I like your take on it more than any other, including my own ideas. I love the progressive nature of your game. I would actually buy a new console, if I had to, just to play it.

Maybe enemies that have kryptonite based weapons. This May require superman armor upgrades. Superman fighting meta humans that excel at speed, electricity and so on; They are evasive to supermans normal attacks requiring him to to adapt with special weapons . A scenario requiring Superman to fight speed force ghosts with the flash. Superman space missions fighting in earths atmosphere, asteroid belt or mars against Braniac, the Reach and space factions alongside the green lantern. Superman having relative superspeed to normal speed where time stops all around him but he runs smoothly and fights while running like driving,shooting and ramming ( against speed powered enemies). Superman fighting huge Titan enemies that take time to defeat by targeting weak points. Superman Tech, armor and ability skill tree.

[@carlfox5976]

Another good way of doing it is having a power bar. Everytime you use an ability your energy drains and you need sunlight to build it back up. This will make gameplay more tactical.

[@olofacosta3192]

Exactly. Look at god of war. Kratos has a magic bar that lets you use his powers but not spam it. People overthink superman lol

[@step-hen-ie]

Someone please hire Sadot as a consultant. I would RUN to get a Smallville/Superman game with an arc that slowly adds powers. Could also make them start off with varying levels of strength, as well as basic action skills where each power is added as a "basic" power but then like Zelda you are later able to master different combinations of Superman's powers. Loving your videos 🙏

They just need to convey how fast he really is. Being able to travel to China from NY fast is a must. Plus properly showing his strength. You can have the ability to destroy everything and fly through buildings, but give some sort of an incentive to not do that, or penalty like losing trust and allies with humans.

[@supertoyreviews2114]

5:43 "ESPECIALLY if they hired me as a consultant." Bold but darn accurate. Good job 👍

[@knighttakespawn]

All these concepts are GREAT! I like the idea of building up powers over time and I felt that way for years…however…what if they gave you the full scope of his powers right away and it was up to you the player to learn to use them with laser-like precision? Rather than bouncing off buildings you might smash right through it or take down buildings with heat vision. This collateral damage might affect the public’s view of you and force the player to become super-precise when using god-like powers in a densely populated city. The skill curve would be going from “MoS Bull in a China Shop” to “One-Hit Headshot” type of skill.

[@SadotTheGamer]

Thanks! That's an interesting idea as well

[@actualperson5443]

would also let you go Homelander and destroy the city and that sounds fun

[@coolioso808]

Not bad idea! Kind of like Infamous Second Son, if you take the good karma route you are trying to stop the bad guys without hurting innocent civilians but while learning your powers or fighting the bad guys, sometimes there is collateral damage. In Infamous SS you can also revive an injured civilian to restore some of your karma. I think a bit of a merge between Spider-Man and Infamous: Second Son would make for a great Superman game, of course with a great, compelling storyline to go with it!

[@BarryJowers]

[@bigaj6901]

Avalanche did Just Cause 3 too right?? Using the jetpack wingsuit in that game is the closest i've felt to being Superman in a game, ever.

[@modernprince842]

This would be an amazing game, I totally agree about Smallville and the inspired progression system. Superman works best when his stories stick to the basics of his origin, personality, friends, and rogues gallery. I also agree about bringing in the other elements from the larger universe though, something Smallville did really well was incorporating different areas of the DC universe like the dark and spooky side with Zatanna and Dr. Fate, and more outer space stuff with Brainiac and the Kandorians etc. I love when Superman is used as the relatable, pov intersecting point for all of this incredible mythology. One thing I'd add to make gameplay more fun and deal with the "he's too powerful" problem is to have a variety of missions throughout that have to do with things other than just beating up baddies. A great example for reference would be the Spider-Man 2 movie game where lots of missions were about saving people from dangerous situations. Taking more inspiration from Smallville you could even have a bullet-time speed system and have certain story missions where you need to move so "fast" that you won't be seen. Superman is such an untapped wealth of incredible gameplay potential and I'm glad to see that that seems to be coming more into public opinion.

[@Grizzlox]

It should have a "power precision" system. Too early, and you pulled your punches or your laser vision too much. Too late, and you used way too much force than was necessary. Rack up too much "overpowered" moves, and Clark temporarily loses some of his powers as he's too afraid to use them

[@apollyonkatastrefia1586]

You could begin a Superman game with full power but then you get poisoned by kryptonite like radiation poisoning and you get more powerful as you slowly heal.

[@frankiecortez9927]

I love this game concept. I feel that superhero games don't get enough credit. Marvel is the exception to this. However, DC hasn't mange to do the same. I think tis game would also help people new to DC enter this world slowly by seeing how Superman started off. My only question is how the flight capability would look?

[@Black0ut6961]

For certain trash mob enemies they can use kryptonite in the form of bullets and gas that can do ticking damage to superman.For gear you can have perks that reduce damage from kryptonite or have a system like megaton rainfall where the city has a health bar and as superman knocks enemies into buildings and stuff the city takes damage.

[@james-russellgause4735]

I just wonder, what if a collective of concerned gamesmiths (?) made a superhero game about an anonymous alien? This alien would be a refugee from a destroyed world. He would be raised on Earth and be endowed by our atmosphere and sun with incredible powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men. He would have near unlimited strength and speed but be guided by a strong urge to do good. And in an extended sequence involving much button mashing and frustration, he would acquire the ability to fly. Enemies include a radioactive menace, a freakish, unstable duplicate of the anonymous alien, an energy draining homunculus, an extremely powerful cyborg, an illusion casting interdimnsional magician, a real estate mogul billionaire genius philanthropist weapons manufacturer, many small time and medium time crooks and gangsters, and ultimately an intergalactic warlord with a penchant for stealing cities. I have no hope of seeing this fame in my lifetime, I am a very old gamer. It's a shame that corporate politics and incompetent, stupid clueless dumbfucks have deprived us all of the ultimate power fantasy married to our own best instincts. I hope you guys eventually get the Superman game you deserve.

[@jamesbass6855]

Let’s go. I think your concept of the Superman game would be refreshing and much needed. We’re so tired of the same boring games and hype got releases. That have been flops. We haven’t seen a next Gen game really. This is crazy… I’m ready for a open world Superman game next Gen. With a good story.

[@zzirfamo24]

They can make it to where some big tech company has found a way to make red sun energy, and there are areas with big lights that weaken him. You could have criminals have a drugs like (XK from the show) and they can be just as strong as Superman but not have all his powers so they would still be a threat, you would just have to be creative on how to beat them. Also let us travel to planet to planet like in no man’s sky and other alien life forms we meet can have powers. We need this game!!!

In addition to your great ideas: Simply include a kryptonite threat you have to overcome. If Lex is the main threat he would outfit his minions appropriately. Think synthesized but weaker than original kryptonite. Will weaken Superman man but no too much.

plus maybe they could adapt a cancelled superman movie plot for the game story, like superman lives or superman: man of steel, the planned sequel to superman returns, in game form, allowing you to see and experience those movies finally. Plus I believe being able to switch between all the superman skins from comics, tv shows and movies would be super cool, kind of like spider-man ps4. They could add the classic suit, the george reeves one, superman lives, bizarro, smallville, returns, kingdom come, MOS, black etc

I would prefer a superman game set in modern day where you start at full power, fight a new enemie from space, this new enemie type drains superman of his powers, throughout the game you upgrade his abilities again by collecting crystals, stoping crime and teaching Jonathan how to be a hero simular to God of war. With lots of classic Superman lore thrown in. Fight Supermans Rouges, save metropolis, team up with other heros in side quests, and go on a heartwarming journey with the man of steel and his son. Perfect.

[@epicgameRAAM15]

Great ideas and I share some of the same thoughts. Note-taking from the Arkham games to give us a true Superman experience would be helpful. I'd definitely like a morality system where I can make decisions that affect the story. Our actions should reflect in the news throughout the game world and players witness reactions that change what people think of Superman. It'd be nice to push out powers and abilities to the max and even kill targets or destroy whole buildings (rebuilt if area is left) with heat vision and flying holes through them. I am even hoping for great side stories, in which we can play a number of episodes, such as ones with Brainiac, Darkseid, and Doomsday. I hope the Doomsday episode would be completely accurate to the original Death of Superman comic with the Justice League America specific characters in place. Additionally, beyond cities, I think the game can include space travel as well and use of the sun, so definitely an interesting idea. Balancing it might have always been thought as complicated, but it's not impossible. The game can incorporate kryptonite-specific enemies or characters strong enough to also hurt Superman, but it's not like all enemies need to be able to hurt him. He is supposed to be very strong and invulnerable outside of his weaknesses. Maybe there can even be a mechanic that lets us choose how much of Superman's power to use in every situation, or perhaps the option to choose a good Superman that will automatically balance the power we use, or an evil Superman from the start and just go mad with power from everything done. inFAMOUS did some things nicely around the power balance you'd get if you chose Evil Cole versus Good Cole.

[@Alex-Sand]

I like the idea of a Superman game which starts at Superman's youth from Smallville to Metropolis, learning his abilities, with enemies that represents a real danger to our character. I think a moral compass would be nice, it would give you the freedom to be a hero or a vilain or something in between. But I think the best way to have a really good game is to also live the Clark Kent experience as a reporter in order to investigate and find what's need to be found. Rescuing someone, stop a bomb, locate an enemy and so on. Therefore superpowers wouldn't be the only interesting aspect of the game but one of its features.

[@ZI-WAN-KHAN]

Like the game and also the story mode of Superman growing up is a really good idea, i wonder if they will be any side quests and a challenge mode to level up your character included in this. Plus who will the secret characters be if you do complete the whole game.

[@barrymorgan5272]

I don't believe it would be hard to make a really good Superman game. We have his history and all the stories to pull from. I thing the real issue would be coming up with a great story for the video game. I like the idea of a progression system, and maybe taking cues from God of War as to the progression of his power set and suits. If there were ever a time to bring forth a new Superman game, now would be it.

I would love for a open world Superman, literally earth traveler.. fly to the sun to recharge, fly into outer space and listen for which situations you deem most dire to help, having time frames when situations are catastrophic and using super flight speed, if time and handling situations are well planned you can save them all. Even smaller situations, like helping the cops chasing bank robberies, just swooping in and freezing the tires and letting them do the rest if you choose then getting back to a more urgent issue. I can go into more details but it'll be too long. Basically can you manage his overpowering abilities and find it ain't as easy as you think, without planning, with thinking, even using clark Kent investigating skills to learn things or just superman out with a consequence

[@MikeFortin33]

One thing about Superman is that he can solve a problem in many ways. For example, if a car is about to hit someone crossing the street, does he just go stop the car, does he grab the person, does he use his freeze breath to stop the car. Does he throw another car between the pedestrian and the oncoming car? Does he blow up the car with his heat vision (unlikely). Bottom line, I think it would be a good feature for the player to actually get points or something for choosing the option that causes the least collateral damage. Superman is supposed to be extremely intelligent, so that should be part of playing him in a game.

[@IronLordEXO]

In all honesty, I think Superboy with his limited Kryptonian powers would be easier to incorporate into a video game. Otherwise, the only way I could see a Superman game being reasonably challenging would be to throw the heavy hitters at you right off the gate, like Metallo, General Zod, Doomsday, or Black Adam who is pretty much Superman's non-alien equal

[@olofacosta3192]

Superman ain't too op. Kratos in ghost of Sparta is quite literally the god of war,yet he can die to regular human soldiers and struggles with chests. The point is that gameplay isn't always meant to be accurate to lore. Batman can one-shot every single thug in Arkham but you need to build up special combo takedown to do it in gameplay. No need to overthink

He can shapeshift depending on the combos and disguises as his enemies and sneaks into the enemy base.

I think the game companies are over thinking it. You just have to scale his enemies. He has many enemies that can be used with the story to scale as h gets stronger. This is also a great idea and hope someone has the courage to make a man of steel game

[@Batman88878]

Having a Metallo or Parasite battle where you have to keep your distance, use heat vision & super breath or objects around you to fight them would go a long way. A Bizarro fight would be more or less an equal battle, while a Zod battle could be trickier because of melee attacks from him & possibly Faora & Quex-Ul (or Ursa & Non). A Brainiac battle could include dodging & timing his attacks from his advanced weaponry.

Now that’s a Superman game story

[@einfaritrommari3774]

i think we can start with an op super man letting us explore for like 10 min of fight and superman talking "we gotta make this quick " and then lex appears with a kriptonite spear, we figth but lex somehow makes kryptonite spores that debuffs superman, doesnt make him useless he can still fly (not as fast) hes not so strong but still strong and we thoughout the game unlock the powers to fight lex in the end

I am so looking forward to this new Superman game! It's always been BATMAN BATMAN BATMAN games while there's hardly been another Superman one since the N64 one, shadow of apokolips and the Superman returns game. This just better not be another Evil Superman story just making him look bad again.

I hope that one of the skins for this so called Superman game to have the long haired Superman from the 90's he always looked badass with long hair.

I love this idea with the exception of two things. One I need an explanation on how you're gonna make the entire Earth an open world? Perhaps the ability to fast travel between different sections of different continents, which can be their own little Mini open worlds encompassing a giant open world. So that you don't have to render the entire Earth. Which would probably make the game a glitchy mess. Too I would not like if reverse flash was the main final boss. Because I would want the sequel to be a flash point Paradox adaptation.

[@-_-DatDude]

My dream Superman game is narrative based one as well, albeit narrative to the extreme. I would love something like Heavy Rain but on a grander scale.... I think the All Star Superman comic would be a great basis for the games story. Given the nature of the story I would remove the idea of health bars in place of timed missions and everyone's favrouite...QTE lol. I think this could work brilliantly.

[@Batman88878]

I like this idea. I'd also say when it comes to boss battles with his enemies, they should be varied so there's strategy to defeat them, not just button mashing combat. Take the skills Bizarro, Brainiac, Zod, Metallo, Parasite & others have & make them obstacles. And my picks for the voice of Clark Kent/Superman are: 1. Tim Daly 2. George Newbern 3. Tyler Hoechlin 4. Brandon Routh 5. Henry Cavill (this low because he'd probably be the most expensive to get)

[@skullhammersmash3293]

And it's not just that he's to powerful, it's the fact that he has 10,000 different abilities that they could even get to making all those work.

[@SadotTheGamer]

He doesn't have that many abilities anymore. Heat vision and ice breath are perfectly easy to balance

[@danielschmidt7806]

I'd like a system of progressive increase ib power. The more tough fly, the faster you can fly. The more punish you take, the more invulnerable you become. The more you use physical combat (punching, throwing, etc.) the stronger you become. When you're exposed to kryptonite you begin to lose your collected abilities until you eventually die.

[@josiahking1073]

DLC that adds Val Zod as a playable character? I feel Val is SUPREMELY underrated, and a game this good would definitely give him the attention he deserves. It could also be like some miles morales/ Spider-Man ps4

[@phintonpickleberg8917]

I think u make the game called Superman Ultimate Invasion. It starts out with you as superman and the justice league standing together against darkseid, Braniac and Zodd and Poison Ivy (who they capture and use her to turn the entire JLA evil and rogue) and scarecrow. the Villains then all work together at first but have like volatile villain relationships and they turn on eachother. u have them unleashe an army of doomsdays, U also have the whole entire JLA turn against superman caught under Ivys spell mixed with scarecrows fear toxin making them all killers the first boss fight is batman who automatically beats you even if your winning then Kal uses compassion and turns him back to ur side, then batman becomes ur like tactician and gives you all the quests, next mission is Aquaman Cyborg Wonderwoman who work like very well together, like a unique boss fight where they actually fight you very cooperativley one boss fight Arrow using explosive kryptonite arrows Fire storm who uses kryptonite One boss fight Batman, who One boss fight against a rogue flash and reverse flash one against Shazam and adam one against Kara martian manhunter, U eventually turn the whole JLA back to ur side by defeating them then u go for the supervillains, as all the boss fights w the JLA was happening the whole city is being flooded, but you know u cant hack into braniacs ship without the whole JLA. then the villains just flood the city, like a full scale invasion. You make the game feel like superman is just so ridiculously overwhelmed that there's almost zero peace throughout the main story and you make it like test his character and desire to give up, make it like "oh god what now, i dont think i can handle ALL that" the final Boss after u defeat Braniac and Darkseid, Luthor "you weren't supposed to beat all of those odds, I told them where we were thinking you would need my help to stop them, but no, god himself prevailed. now I have to destroy you because nobody else could" and thats the final boss

[@Twisted_Carbon]

I always thought that a good Superman game should be done from the perspective of residents of metropolis, including Lois Lane and Jimmy Olsen. You must survive as that character in some dangerous scenario until Superman shows up to save the day.

[@sheldonmckenzieel2552]

Bro I was thinking the same thing with having Superman being able to literally go anywhere in the world. I was thinking it would be possible to build this in a game, if for the past 10+ years they had Google Earth and you could pretty much drop down anywhere on the earth to street level. And the same way you could zoom right out to see the entire Earth in Google Earth, I thought they could have Superman go into outer space. I actually think it would be cool to have him be able to, not only go to the sun, but also to the different planets in the solar system. They could use Nasa images to build up what they think each planet would look like. The scope of this game would be crazy. They would need a good 3-4 years to make it perfect.

I love your ideas. Also think they should add all different Superman actors head models. I will be using Christopher Reeve more than any other head models.

[@danybloke1]

I've said this on a few of these videos but I'll touch over what I have said before. We are missing a big element here, as developing a game where Superman can fly around the globe very quickly would be a huge task to fill that planet with content that doesn't continuously repeat. The only thing I can think of to get round this is to make supes fly into orbit and then fly to a waypoint where there are missions/cities you can fly to. This would reduce the need to populate the whole world with roads and smaller towns that won't have content, and if you get too far enough away from a city/mission it will force you to start flying up into orbit. Another way to look at Superman is similar to what you are saying but why not look at it in another way. Why not be able to walk around the city as Clark Kent, and switch to superman at certain points in the game. This way you could go from city to city investigating crimes as a journalist and using superman when it is required. As Clark you can start off fairly limited in power (strength of 10 men) can only jump a certain distance, but over time as the story progresses you get stronger and can eventually leap tall buildings and eventually begin to fly, and your body shape begins to change (muscle etc). Just think at the beginning you can't just run from mission to mission because you would get too tired, and it would take too long (and as Clark people would see you), so you would need to take transport (bus/plane/helicopter/boat/car etc). I'm not saying we want an airport simulator - but for the story Clark would have a reason to go to i.e. Brazil to investigate a story there relating to some mission. Eventually of course you would have the option to fly to these places as Superman. Clothing wise you wear a disguise that covers your face and you wear normal clothes like jeans, trainers, t-shirt, jacket but again the story develops you slowly begin to morph your appearance by wearing clothes that begin to take on the iconic suit. He doesn't just have to wear superman suit from the beginning. Also why can he only go to the Sun? Why not the other planets in the solar system?

[@roninwarriorsfan]

This video is probably the best palate cleanser after what Rocksteady did Edit: I also have some ideas for a superman game. Adjustable power meter: Inspired by Sonic the Hedgehog's most recent game, you can adjust this depending on the enemies you're made to fight. (Both Kryptonite and Red Sunlight can interfere with this (under red sun, you'd be set at whatever adjustments you made, and those get lower the more time you're under it))

[@someguy1842]

I love these types of vids. Another great concept. I'll be watching this one, like the X-men one, multiple times.

[@TheUnseenPath]

Superman returns doesn't look that bad considering it's leagues above the N64 one and since it's a game you can make him as strong as you want. The aforementioned game gave the HP bar to Metropolis not Superman hence collateral.

[@goddessoftruth]

A few other DC superhero characters were mentioned as being in the game, but I didn't hear Wonder Woman mentioned in that list. Does anyone know if she will be included in the game?

[@sipioc]

I think a more open concept for a Superman game. You have your own created character and you follow your journey. Will you be Superman: -Don’t kill unless you have no other choice. -A beacon of good, and justice. -Kind, gentle, and humble. Will you be Homelander: -Desire to be seen as good but are really corrupt. -senselessly slaughter. Or will you be Omni Man: No F’s given. Kill without a thought. Fight when you feel like it. You have your own agenda. Maybe there is a perception system in the form of news footage not unlike Infamous and by allying yourself with different people in the city you are perceived as good or bad.

[@darrenmcentire2374]

The problem with Superman is his biggest enemy is himself. Every second of every day, he's fighting his own body with every action to make sure he doesn't pull doors off hinges, crush hands while shaking them, and cave in the skulls of the people he fights. I'd represent this in the game with a power vs precision mechanic. The longer and more intense the battle, the harder it will be to control Superman. Outside of combat, the Player is unable to, say, fly Superman through a building. If you try, you might hear some inner monolog about protecting people. In battle, the Player must successfully complete periodic QuickTime events to keep this precision mechanic. The more of them the Player fails, the more dangerous Supes comes to the world around him. Now you can run into buildings and knock bricks from the sides, but the game still pulls him away before he goes all the way through a building. Maybe after a few failures, he's knocking buildings down and really messing up the environment around him. This can work nicely next to a karma mechanic. The more dangerous the Player is, the more attacks he'll experience from kryptonite enhanced A.R.G.U.S. and eventually US military forces

[@TheBlindDyslexic]

Another aspect of the video game could be based on Clark Kent's Investigative skills. Which would Transfer over to Superman, and vice-versa.

what if the game started off as fighting a really powerful enemy like Darkseid and you get to play a really powerful superman, then after a few minutes of playing superman is with the justice league and hes about to do a punch then it cuts back to the past where you play as younger clark an build up to the future event seen at the start of the game.

It’s so simple! Make it so that common street thugs are easy to take down the first mission or 2 and then eventually say kryptonite hit the black market and just give everyone guns that could take down Superman’s heath and then make it so Superman is trying to find out who did it type of thing. There’s soooo many creative ways to make everyone a threat to supes
