He breaks difficulty curve
If a talented team were to somehow overcome the User Experience nightmare of controller mapping that we discussed earlier, those very same powers also pose a huge challenge to traditional game design, which demands a series of challenges taken by the player. As soon as you stick a health bar on Superman, who is known for being nearly invulnerable, is it really even Superman anymore? 2006 had Superman Returns, with an interesting twist in that Metropolis was what was damaged and made up your health bar, but given the reviews for the game that doesn’t seem like quite the right compromise to make.
