So, “Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League” is here. After 9 years, finally we’re getting another addition into the Batman Arkham Universe. Personally, I'm kind of... conflicted on the game, and the premise of "killing" my favorite characters including Kevin Conroy's Batman.
But it’s gotten me thinking about other DC properties that deserve their own game. Most of all, I think we need a Superman game. Superman has had games and fan games in the past, but what could a modern, open world Superman game look like?
How could you even make it work? Is it impossible or is it actually much simpler than you'd think? Today I talk the history of Superman games, gameplay and story ideas, how to do the Flight, and the most important part of any Superman experience: flying through rings.
With great power, there must also come great responsibility:

@98loud 3 месяца назад

@@Nixdigo I don't really think he's a "figure for fascism" because a couple of stories had him be a fascist. It's just a different take on the character that for a long time symbolized everything American and "free". It also gives context to the main version of Clark - if he wanted to, he could easily take over the world, but he chooses to live in it, as you said. Those stories just illustrate that point

@Nixdigo 3 месяца назад

@@98loud See as stories about Superman come out the window of "normal" superman, Base superman ig, changes. Every iteration of the character to hit major screens moves Superman just a little in one way or another. I feel like recently fascistic superman is the default. Sometimes it's really obvious such as the movie adaptation of Red Sun but other times it's hidden such as the Synder movies when he's just willing to crack a few eggs to make the world a better place. To me that's the antithesis of Clark Kent. Clark Kent is just a guy who can save everyone. It's why the comic version of Red Sun worked for me. He truly thought he wasn't killing people by enslaving them. And then he learned he was and changed. I don't feel like DCCU or the animated movies were true to the character if that makes sense. "Clark Kent is Superman's critique on the whole human race" is a quote I disagree with but it seems to have become the "default" view. I think Superman is what Clark Kent thinks a hero should be. Batman is Bruce as in Bruce is the mask. But Clark Kent wears Superman. Parker has to wrestle with the balance of Spiderman and Peter, but Clark has to wrestle with being human while not being human. How does an alien stronger than any weapon we've created feel about being human? Clark sees the good and confronts the bad. Everything to colonialist aliens , greedy land lords, and even suicidal thoughts. So when he's recreating the evil I find it hard to stomach. when Clark becomes a critique on people I feel the need to watch something else. My adventures with Superman was fine, I wish it had anything to say.

For how Superman’s health could work how about two heath bars, a normal health bar and an invincibility bar. The invincibility will allow Superman to take punches pretty easily and bullets will just bounce off him, but when that’s depleted during the normal health bar bullets and punches will knock you back more and leave you less time to attack. When facing kryptonite enemies they’ll skip your invincible bar and go straight for your regular health even if your at max invincibility.

The idea of the flight feeling like a leveled-up version of the wingsuit in SM2 is enticing. The idea of Supes pulling tricks while rounding corners at a high speed, putting in animations of him flying facing upwards, running his hand through leaves/the water under him, etc. would feel great and would do a lot for his relationship with metropolis. I agree it would be awesome for it to take place early and move forward with his early journey and unlocking the full suit and abilities, maybe even a time jump, though not always a fan of those.

@suto5704 4 месяца назад

@l0sts0ul89 4 месяца назад

@jordibaizabal5682 4 месяца назад

That got me thinking that maybe you just have wind tunnels and stuff similar to spiderman 2 that would make Superman fly faster and maybe some roaming hazards to avoid like flocks of birds or helicopters that you wouldn't just want to barrel through. Combine that with the "leap tall buildings in a single bound" idea so that he can jump around similar to spiderman launch points. Maybe also have him sprint real fast. The fun could be in switching between these traversal options. Maybe he slides a bit when you land after flying at high speeds and you can chain that into a big jump that helps you quickly change directions. Or you're sprinting and round a corner almost drifting, transition to flying and shoot down that street real fast. Take the idea from the video of a meter that builds up over time for special traversal moves like flying fast enough to make a sonic boom. And like spiderman, the better you know the city the faster you could traverse it

@haruhirogrimgar6047 4 месяца назад

That could be a fast travel system for if you are like 20 hours in. You just mark a point and then you watch Superman sonic boom pathfind there (skipping past all of the bonuses you can get for manually flying).

In terms of visual style for games a go by the thought of: "Realism is fleeting, style is immortal."

Superman is actually very stealthy, his xray vision and super hiring cold be used in some missions, maybe you cold play as "Clark kent" and use your powers to investigate a "party" for exemple, like in hitman. And i think Lois and Jimmy definitely should know that Clark is superman already.

@ultimatedbz2 3 месяца назад

Having Superman start with the jeans and wanting a better outfit could be a fun way to have costume unlocks throughout the game. Maybe have an early mission where you save a taylor who can help you out, you have secrets and challenges that give Clark ideas for new costumes that you then have to collect crafting materials for and give to the tailor. Like he defeats a miniboss, thinks they had a cool costume, you see a sketch pop up with a new costume idea that clark wants to try. The dorkier you can make clark the better.

@ricekrispies4994 3 месяца назад

I'd be interested to see you pitch ideas for other characters that deserve games, like Green Lantern, Green Arrow & Black Canary, Static Shock, Aquaman, The Teen Titans, The Justice League, etc...

The Superman game can take from Spider-Man and have multiple suits too, aside from the story mode ‘classic suit.’ You could craft those inside the Fortress of Solitude. There needs to be a quick-travel feature that once you “Travel To Fortress of Solitude” it plays a cutscene-like animation wherever you are of Superman shooting off into the sky to travel. Then we load into the fortress open area. In the fortress, that’s where you see prizes, unlocked achievements and different suits, can craft suits, side stuff, etc. Also, in the fortress they can have a side mission that explores krypton and his past. Showing his father’s AI too that’s with his childhood spaceship and stuff. Maybe brainiac AI he kept after defeating him? Anyways- There needs to be a feature in the game where at any time in the open world, Superman can fly directly up into the sky and see the entire city in a bird eye view. In this moment, you can “FOCUS” and Superman closes his eyes to hear the different cries of civilians. This can be a quick-mode option to get civilian quests in the open world VS waiting for them to randomly spawn. Doing this event could also give you loot/resources to craft the different suits. The FOCUS event can make you choose between different tragedies and you have to decide which person to save. Would really showcase “you can’t save everyone.” I personally think the story should take place later into his career after he defeated brainiac and there are multiple of his rogues gallery that cause havoc. I’d make the main threat though be Parasite or Livewire or both. EDITED SIDE NOTE: I think DC Universe Online did pretty good with their flying mechanics and you could upgrade the flying later in game too!

@shawnwilcowski 4 месяца назад

That’s a cool idea, make the “map” like you said, just him flying up in the sky and we take control of his eyes as an icon selector and have a “pin” be his super memory memorizing EXACTLY we he wants to go, yeah there’s wayyyyyy too much to not have already gotten a good supes game 😂

@ZURPHEN 4 месяца назад

@@shawnwilcowski I more so meant that you still have a big open world metropolis- but while flying around through skyscrapers and buildings, you can also just fly directly up. A lot of games have a cap at certain skyscrapers but make Superman’s cap be the stratosphere. You’d get a whole Birds Eye view of the open world map, and once up there at the edge of the map a command option pops up like let’s say “RB to “FOCUS”” then you hit the right button and start focusing to hear the different cries. Once you focus, 4-5 different tragedy missions can pop up that you have to chose from (only 1) and you get special loot from it as well as moral points for helping the city. Idk. It would honestly be very easy to make a Superman game if they got a good team together to work on it. But I guess game companies are focusing on Marvel since the success of the MCU. I’m sure once James Gunn creates the next best cinematic universe with DC, studios and developers will come crawling. Perhaps Netherrealm could even take a stab at it since they are owned by WB.

For the flying mechanics, there could be casual flying like just flying for fun then you can “speed fly.” There can be a fast direction change kind of thing for sharp turning. There can also be a landing mechanic where you try to not cause a lot of damage to cars, roads etc. These could be skill tree items to earn and pay skill points for.

I think my ideal Superman game would be one set in the 1940s, both to give it a nice retro vibe to help it stand out from other modern Superman adaptations, and to use how Superman's powers were in his earliest versions as part of the game's progression. So when Clark starts out he only basically has super strength, some durability, and has to jump everywhere, literally leaping tall buildings in...well maybe a couple bounds to start with. And as the story goes on and Clark hones his powers, he increases in strength and durability and speed, while also unlocking new abilities, like his sensory powers of sight and hearing that become handy in various missions, and heat vision and freeze breath as both additional ranged weapons and tools, and finally capping it all off with him getting the hang of actually flying. So the player would grow with Clark, learning how to hone and use his powers and abilities as they face progressively bigger and more dangerous threats to Metropolis as the story goes on and stakes raise.

@Homunculus97 4 месяца назад

One influence I think could fit really well with the whole making Metropolis feel alive angle would be the Yakuza/Like a Dragon games, in those games the "open world" might not be the biggest but there is so much life and activities through out them and there are many funny and more lighthearted lower stakes side stories that I think could easily fit with Supermans initiative and drive to help the everyman besides the big city threatening stuff that would be centre of the main story.

Also, you could have a lot of fun with his powers or secret identity stuff. If it was a "My Friend Superman" game then bagel run would be a killer gamemode. Cats stuck in trees is a classic (except make all the cats insanely resistant for some reason, like you have to rescue the red lantern cat). Helping old women cross the road.

I think a linear Superman game could take some inspiration from Superman Smashes the Klan. Start off with golden age Superman powers (strength, speed, leaping tall buildings in a single bound). As you go along and Clark taps into his Kryptonian origins you unlock powers like heat vision and flight. *edit: I should probably finish watching the video before commenting

I think a solid video game idea for Superman would be to create an experiential video game that has an aura of relaxation and peace, i'm thinking about Journey here (same artsyle even). You don't control where the story is going you as the player are just along for the ride. No health meters, nothing to create stress. Just a peaceful game where your invincible trying to help everyone you come across. Flying over vast green fields just for the sake of it, solving problems with puzzles that require you to use you powers in inventive ways, enemies attacking you only for Superman to gently talk them out of it (in-game cinematic, you cannot determine what Superman says). Its more about the experience and what it would feel like to be like to fly on a beautifuld day rather than about beating the bad guy. In short, a game about his humanity. Keep all the cool flying of course but his humanity and hope are what Superman fans would really want from him and I think this relaxing format really plays to his strengths. A Superman gamedoesn't need to make you struggle, it needs to heal you.

I think the Electric Blue and Red Superman would be a fun concept for a game. Imagine a split screen system for dual players for those ocassions. Having a different powerset perform similar functions in a flashier but different way from the norm is what game DLC are all about already and that is what Superman Blue did in the Justice League comics. Use his new powers to compensate for his old ones. Plus imagine how people in Metropolis might react to the player, like they are afraid they'll get hurt if they touch him, or they are worried about their friend Superman, or some basic praise or cristisms, like when Spiderman is a new costume getting mixed reviews.

That wouldn't work with Superman, he shouldn't have momentum. What he should have is adaptative speed, like the harder you press the trigger, the faster he will go. If you press full force the trigger, he should take off and speed up violently, but If you gently and progressively press the trigger, the faster he will go without violent take off.

And to progress the story at points you had to go look for random encounters of these 4 types of missions. But like the flying is amazing. I'd want a game with that kind of flying again PLUS another sub system that can make it cool to turn on tight corners like building blocks, which can add to that feeling of mastery. And could also be an extension of your "breach" system idea of planning a path with your superspeed for an attack. Doing something similar but with flying.

You know what's my favorite flying game? LEGO BATMAN 2 Please hear me out. Before TT games changed the mechanic in Lego Marvel Super Heroes, in open world of LB2 Superman is the first character with an ability to fly. You have to use "aim circle" (i'll call it that, but I am not sure if it's the actual name) to guide your character in the right direction. And, at least for me, it's probably the only time this mechanic felt like actual flying. Like, the boost feels like it really ADDS something to your speed (and not like, make you 10% faster with a bit of wind effect around you, like in the later games). You can't make hard cuts on turns and Superman just very smoothly turns around when you need to change your direction. Yeah, that's how I would call it. "Smooth". It's very precise and requires getting used to it. Believe me, cause I hated it, when I started playing. I like, played LEGO Marvel Super Heroes and Batman 2 at relatively similar time, and at first, ... I loved the flying in the LMSH,... but then, I just really feel in love with LB2, for some reason I just came around and I started enjoying it. I remember coming back to the game, not even for the Gold Bricks or 100%, but to just FLY around, fight bad guys and roleplay as Superman. Cause in LB2, Superman is the main highlight. And it shows. Oh, and don't forget the music. Every time you fly as Superman, his theme song starts to play, and (as annoying as it sometimes could get), it's an amazing experience.

I wonder if some air plane games would be good inspiration for Superman's flight. He gets confused for a plane, and it's an entire genre dedicated to flight.

No one understands why the Arkham games became so successful. The reason is because arkham asylum was an INSANELY small game both literally and figuratively. It's such an isolated story and setting that allowed Rocksteady to create a small but detailed world and heavily focus on polishing the gameplay. A war world video game has the potential to be arkham asylum but for Superman. Have it be gladiatorial-like where Superman fights similarly powered enemies. Have the combat be more 1 on 1 instead of group combat to contrast with the Arkham games and no metropolis until the sequels

Superman’s flying should feel like driving in Mario Kart.

@Kihambo 4 месяца назад

I thought of something that could make flying more fun in a Superman game: Imagine you're not even on the ground yet. In attempt to take flight, the game will prompt you with a Quick Time Event (which will be a random series of inputs every time) as you jump in the air as a young Clark Kent. From there, it's simple: if you input all the correct buttons, Clark will fly. Otherwise, he'll just land back on the ground like normal. But to spice things up, the QTE gets more challenging as you progress through the story of the main game. When you're earlier into the game, you'll only get a combination of maybe 2-3 inputs for the QTE. And as you get more used to it, not only will the QTE give you more inputs to do, but also the time to do them will progressively get shorter depending on what level you are in the game (or how high up you are on whatever leveling system they choose to do). This way, it's easy for new players to get into, but also harder to master as the game goes on so it adds some flare and spontaneity to the flying mechanic. I'd really like to see something like that be implemented into any flying game.

I swear to God if I have to fight an evil Superman one more God Damn time I’m gonna put my head through a fucking wall. I’m just sick of it. I like a lot of these ideas. Especially for the flight mechanics. Adding a booster for the flight would be great. Doing spins and tricks, flying through tight spaces and maintaining momentum would be amazing. Adding a slow time feature would be cool as well to aid in navigation and stylize the traversal and combat. I think God of War 2018, Ragnarok, plus a splash of Evil West and DMC5 would be more than enough to keep everyone satisfied. For those who want a hard hitting combat experience and for people who want some extra sprinkled on. We could get that close over the shoulder 3rd person combat, we could have our powers be quick fired and juggled. We could free aim them too for precision and the slow time feature could come into play, where it’s almost like an Instant Transmission feature, we can zip in between enemies, aim for precision punches and power usage. I think introducing Apokolips and having that technology be used to enhance the criminals and villains would be cool. It could build toward Darkseid and Doomsday being the final villains. Basically Darkseid would have been the one to destroy Krypton. Darkseid could command his own of villains. Villains like Mongul, Brainiac, the Furies and his son. He could even send other Kryptonians that were collected before the destruction. He would send these powerful but lesser villains because he views Superman as unworthy. But as Superman becomes more powerful and competent Darkseid begins to respect him more and eventually sends Doomsday before deciding to invade himself. We could have a trilogy of great games that span a time frame of 2 years each. We could get another game where it’s various hub worlds interconnected by an interactive loading screen and fast travel.

I think that a good Superman story would be him going around helping people for the majority, like in the spiderman games which I haven't played but my friend who has said it's got a bunch of side quests where you help people around the city. You can have a Superman story where he's fighting but be honest, Superman's whole thing is being a boy Scout with a heart of gold, let us side questers have a game that's backbone is the side quests where he helps people, from getting cats out of trees to assisting builders when something goes wrong. They can have the game be based after a tragic event from the comics aswell, one where the city gets damaged so that you can really see him helping people. His role as a reporter can also be utilized in him helping people.

@Flurgenheimen 4 месяца назад

I feel like a good way of doing the flying would be to have a constant flight with a hovering mode and a travelling mode but having a much faster dash that would run off of a bar and could be chained together for faster movement with it giving a sudden burst of speed that drops off after a second with supperman losing a bit of altitude as weel. This could be used with a system that would reward players with some extra refill for weaving between buildings and a complete loss of momentum when you crash into a building, possibly having a very short animation of superman fixing the damage with super speed. With something along these lines the player hopefully wouldn't be bored holding one button the whole time and it would tie in a bit to the feeling of superman jumping around the city

I think I have an idea for a mechanic: rage boost. Let’s say you’re Superman, fighting some big guy, and a chunky of debris gets thrown into a storefront or whatever, enter a quick time event where you have to save the people inside, and if you fail, they get hurt and Superman r a wrathful state. He hits a lot harder, his eyes are burning red, that whole thing. Catch is, his stats will be amped for the current battle, but you’ll actually LOSE exp, or strength and speed, whatever over time, you’ll actually get weaker if you rely on this. Actually saving the people won’t provide any stat boost for the battle, but afterwards you get extra exp, and “friend points” or whatever. Could be neat! And just a little way of showing that you’re supposed to prioritize saving people as Superman
