So many complaints here...
Regarding the writing, some of you want there to be more time for characters to break in an already grindy game. The thing is, most of these characters should have willpower second only to Hal Jordan and outside of this game, would never give in to Lex
These heroes are also compromised of martial artists and intelligent beings who could incapacitate luthor even when depowered. It's not realistic either that they were all captured so easily.
So its really baffling to me how you all want to add more grind to make it more believable, none of it is believable anyways.
Regarding crush, maybe read about her if you don't know about her. You might like her
