It's a fucking cliche, but I think Bayonetta/God Hand/Viewtiful Joe is a good basis for how Superman melee-combat would work. Rapid damaging jabs followed up by a mighty finishing strike that sends the enemy flying. Superman almost exclusively uses his fists, and as a precursor to Kenshiro/Jojo et al. an infrequent strategy was to pummel the enemy repeatedly with faster-than-light punches. Platinum combat frequently has an aerial component to it, which would obviously need tweaking for an entity that can fly at will. You could even do things like "slow down" time to represent his super speed, as an analog to Witch Time or MGR's precision cutting, to handle judicious use of things like heat vision or freeze breath.
The real issue is of course, how do you handle everything outside of combat? Is it linear level progression or is it the standard open world? How do you make an open world interesting to someone that can travel faster than light, punch through obstacles with impunity, and can fly(as opposed to the "super gliding" of superhero games like Arkham or Prototype). Obviously Superman isn't going to have the kind of game where you can just murder innocent civilians, and no console is going to be able to handle massive and complex destruction physics that can be triggered at any time.
No, superman is boring. Platinum games are usually pretty fun.
Superman would work the same way the Tenkaichi games work except more polished
We're so desperate for a superman game that I'd let Japs make it.
Probably not. Platinum is bad at weakening their protagonists when Superman has the abstract weakness of only being one person.
We let the Japanese write Batman comics. It wouldn't be the weirdest thing, and honestly, who better to trust for an action game than the Japanese?
>who better to trust for an action game than the Japanese?
People who are good at it.
what's the difference
no, but a flash game done by platinum would be incredible
No. A Wonder Woman game would work though.
>No, superman is boring. Platinum games are usually pretty fun.
>Things normies say
The first line and the second.
you could already sorta be the flash in Infamous Second son.
Hell no, they're never done anything like what a Superman game should be like.
Like I want Platinum to make a Kill la Kill game and shit with all the other memesters but Superman? Fuck that, no.
i think we need to get away from open world superman games. shit just needs to be straight action games with levels
Superman doesn't have a lot of moves, he's not much of a brawler, he just punch good
he has his laser vision, super and ice breath. but really not a lot of moves
>a Superman game has to depend on actual dexterity rather than counter-to-win
>Superman doesn't have a lot of moves
he actually does well post crisis superman does and new52 superman can box. pre flashpoint supes trained with batman
>tfw you will never have a Superman game based on the Justice League episode "Hereafter"
Such a great episode. Go watch it right now if you've never seen it.
Can Superman even fight? He’s strong as fuck but has no real style which makes him kinda boring.
...
A good Superman game would be a puzzle game designed like an action game, where you have to figure out how to save large numbers of people using the environment and your powers, making bridges with ice breath, knocking down a building to it props another up, and then you have to fly in and grab the people who fall out, etc.
I think the superhero that would fit Platinum the best is Spider-Man.
He's incredibly acrobatic and is often in aerial combat, which fits DMC/Bayonetta gameplay; also has tons of villains that would make great boss fights.
Anybody who says no doesn't read Superman.
No clearly Spider-Man needs to be an Arkham clone.
I'm curious as to how free flight would be implemented in a Platinum style game. It's not Superman if you can't fly whenever you want.

Such as?
Spider Gwen's outfit is fucking cool and it won't be the same writers as the booring-ass comic
Now Gwenpool Comix-Zone-Style game when
She got cancelled
>le platinum character action game simply epic xd
That said, I would play an HnK platinum game even though it doesn't make sense from a lore perspective.
Shame she's a coalburner. I'd fug her.
I honestly fucking forgot
Fuck this gay Earth, Marvel won't let anyone have nice things. How the fuck does Gwenpool get cancelled but fucking Squirrel Girl is still running? How the fuck does that work?
What's going to happen to Best Girl?
Synergy
New Warriors show coming
This is your Squirrel Girl
A mix of tenkaichi fighting mechanic with superman return flying would work pretty well.
The whole point of playing superman is to feel like you're the character, and freedom to explore is an integral part.
