Came to say inFamous, but specifically picking up after the evil ending in 2. The way that frames it could allow for character customization, and maybe even getting to choose your powerset.
It could even have multiplayer elements if that’s where they wanted to go with it. Not sure how well PvP would work out, but co-op missions could be fun. But, it could work just fine without any of that
If you’re into the '90s extreme aesthetic, I’d definitely recommend Comix Zone to get you neck-deep in it.
You play Sketch Turner, a comic artist who- along with his pet rat, Roadkill- gets sucked into his own comic by the comic’s villain, Mortus, who wants to trap Sketch forever so he can exist in the real world or something.
It’s a side-scroller beat 'em up where you move across the panels and pages of a comic book, punching and kicking mutants while the Sega sound chip blasts (occasionally grating but still awesome) grungy rock at you. If you’re into '90s shit, there’s nothing not to love
