The game is 15 minutes long and just an extended QTE cutscene.

Copy Marvel's Spider-Man and have Wally as a semi-established but kind of still green hero with a good cast of supporting characters.
His 'unlocks' are the results of situations pushing him further, along with what a mysterious ally calls the "Speed Force" that will remove all limits to his power. Basically season 1-3 of The Flash TV.
You get a few end-levels with SpeedPants level powers that cause Wally to feel like he's losing his connection to his family and has to set an arbitrary limit on them (narratively) to prevent becoming a Speed Avatar.

There's no shortage of speed or time dilation mechanics in games so it just comes down to which ones you want to use. Or use all of them. Make the lovechild of Superhot and Sonic that nobody knew they wanted until they're playing it.

I don't like it when you're watching me eat.
It might be kind of fun to have a game where for every major fight, the gameplay part of it is at normal speed/slowed down, but shortly after, there is an optional replay where it plays the events back with how it looked for an outside observer.

How about we put him in a simulated world where he doesn't have full access to his powers and there's a bunch of fog so you have to move slowly and also run through rings all around the level in a set amount of time

Remember when Avengers was revealed at E3 and they spent like an hour talking about everything except what the game was

They definitely showed gameplay at the E3 2019 reveal, but nearly all of it was from the heavily scripted single-player opening missions, which was a curious decision given that they were also emphasizing that the game was a multiplayer co-op GaaS title.

Needless to say, this was not an identity crisis that Crystal Dynamics managed to resolve in the final product.

Speaking of Avengers, rumor (from a credible community leaker, apparently) is that development is ending and all new content, including leaked characters like She-Hulk, has been cancelled, with an announcement expected next week.

Weirdly lasted longer than a lot of these games as a service/live game things. Like Anthem got one small update right? They actually did do a lot of updates rather than cutting and running. None of it was great but they get a bit of credit for me for that at least.

It was a fun single player game and I enjoyed getting to play as Kate, but yeah, this has been a dead game walking for a while.

Gonna be funny when Suicide Squad comes out and bombs even more because it's doing the same poo poo as Avengers, except with fewer characters!

Shuri and Ironheart were also in some stage of development, according to datamined audio files. allegedly, She-Hulk was one of the first in-development characters to be shelved, since the DLC budget at that point had been cut to where it didn't allow for fully original characters (source)

Ultron was apparently in development in some form, though I’m not sure the game needed any more robots.

but yeah, it’s ridiculous that it only shipped with three bona fide supervillains, especially when two of them only appear in the first few hours of the campaign and one is the final boss

Didn't some twitch streamer accidentally out themselves as voicing she hulk and they hadn't announced it at all and quickly had to backtrack? It was a dev stream, it was pretty drat funny.

For all the jank in Gotham Knights combat, after playing Forspoken, I see how it could be so much worse. At least in GK I know when and why I'm taking damage and dodging actually works.

Thrilling the forums since 2001

I was turned off by the card system until I actually saw gameplay vids and played around with it myself. It's really the most un-card system card system I've ever played.

I also suspect it'll have some long tail success. I talk the game up to everyone I can. It owns and if you didn't get it, you should because it owns.
