The melee in SR IV is entertaining to watch, especially when you run-attack enemies, triggering a neat little cutscene. Getting stuck in that cutscene as you clear a crowd, or running from one enemy to the next watching them over and over...it breaks flow.
When I think of superhero games, I think of the Hulk: Ultimate Destruction for Gamecube. It was slick, easy transition from motion to attack, lots of fun. You were a human pinball....(hulk pinball?) To bring that to SR IV without losing the neat cutscenes, what about a simple mod to not trigger those cutscenes when using melee weapons?
The end result is that you can sprint into crowds swinging wildly and chop 'em apart with your laser sword or whatnot. Use that super-strength upgrade you dropped points into. At the same time, you don't lose the cutscenes, you just have to use fists only to activate them. Everybody wins, see?
