Why can't Lego games allow for a little customisation?
Traveller's Tales Lego games have become a staple within our household.
The quality of the games is somewhat variable - so some I will go back to and play; particularly as the younger members of the family get older and some some won't be quite so high up the replay list but there is one feature missing from every Lego game I've played since the original Lego Star Wars - a customised party
I've found in every game that there are characters that I prefer to use - often not the primary characters. For instance, in Lego Pirates of the Caribbean, my female character choice would be Park (one of the supporting pirates from the Singapore segment) or my preferred webslinger in Lego Marvel is Venom.
Yes I can pick a preferred character, but every game will auto-select the other characters in the party.
Yes I can select other characters on the fly (in Free Play at least) but it won't remember previous selections.
I'd firmly expect this to be something not necessarily obvious, particularly to the younger players, and that it wouldn't be possible to save a group of characters who didn't cover at least one example of each the class types available in the game but I can't see it being that complicated to be able to have a custom group (or several) that you could pick for Free Play sessions as an additional option to having the computer randomly select a group
Or am I the only one to want this ...?
