There will be a guest. Probably more than one. I'd wager with the amount of money Injustice 1 made they won't be limited to picking their own characters though.
I am not a fan of those two either, dont dislike them but feel kinda "meh" towards them. But, to be fair, having similar powers is not an excuse to leave anyone out. Shazam and Black Adam have the exact same powers, but they played nothing alike in In1
But they are archenemies like Green lantern and sinestro, so they should be given a pass. Not the case for Supegirl though.
Saying Supergirl shouldn't be in it because of her powers is like saying that Nightwing, Red Hood, Batgirl, etc. shouldn't be in it because Batman is.
Given a pass from what? If they played similarly you could say "they play the same but I give them a pass cause they are archenemies" but this is not the case, nobody is forgiving them from playing the same because they don't, even though they have the same powers in the comics. The same is true for every character, no one should be excluded for having the same powers in the comics because there are tons of ways to make them different gameplaywise, just like Shazam and Black Adam
But why you would insert a char with same powers when you have a comic universe full of unique superheroes? The only reasonable excuse will be the archenemies status, but aside from that I can't see a good reason; I really doubt people want to play I2 with half roster batman chars and the other half Superman chars.
I despise people like you.
Mostly because they more popular, meaning more people know and like them. That is the reason Injustice had a lot more batman characters than any others. Its not that I dont get what you mean, but in the end what does it mater what their powers in the comics are if they play completely different in the game?
Tbh NRS has shown they can make unique chars that appear same in the paper (like batman and batgirl), but they could appeal to broader audiences (like fans of Swamp thing, Constantine, Dr. Fate and many other DC comics) by not focusing in one or two franchises (Batman, Superman, etc). I guess I just want more from the DC world than Batgirl, Red Hood, Nightwing, Harley, Joker, Batman, Superman, Supergirl... you get the idea.
Of course I do, I want that too, I am all for more obscure character over Nightwing, Batgirl, Supergirl, or Zoom. I agree on that. What I was just poiting out is that characters having the same powers is not a reason to exclude them, cause tey can still play completely different.
Yeah how are competitive players supposed to be prepared for every character with every possible combination of gear? This type of thing is great for rpgs but does not seem conducive to a competitive fighting game. Also, you think variations gave balance difficulties? Think of millions of potential gear combinations some of which could potentially break or over buff a character. No offense to NRS but no freaking way they will be able to test every gear combination with every character thoroughly enough to ensure balance assuming there is a lot of different types of gear (which sounds like the case since it seems to be an rpg like "drop" system.
I also want to see what gear system is really like. It does seem to cater to casuals but that's how you make money in all honesty. As long as the game is fun I'll play it and guess what if God forbid it is another SFxt we can always play mkx so let's just wait a bit.
And I'm curious about that too, especially when Convergence addressed Injustice Universe and he destroyed it lol Superman was already out from Batman, so I'm guessing they're ignoring that all together or maybe they'll explain that it some how got saved?
