Why is DD HK actually a great overhaul (imho)

From what I've seen so far, people are pretty disappointed. But I think Kabam made a great job on him.
Why? Because he feels true to how he's depicted in the show: he can fight normal entities (Fisk for example) but it costs him a lot of effort. He has difficulties, but he can deliver a solid punch as well as take some beating. And that's EXACTLY what his updated version is like.
On top of that, I'd say he is 7/10. And it would be naive to expect Daredevil to be as good hero as the top ones are. In Comics/shows, he would probably never beat the greatest cosmic-level fighters.
Not that this game made champions true to their comic books selves (sad Sentry noises), but after Punisher 2099 this is at least second buff that makes champ about as strong as they'd be in actual marvel universe (comparatively speaking), and I like this new trend that seems to be emerging in the buffs and overhauls.

Also "how strong a character is" isn't a very solid thing in the comics either. Characters can go from being ridiculously weak to absolutely overpowered depending on the story. For example, friggen Squirrel Girl defeats everyone because "that's her gimmick", regardless of the opponent, who becomes weak when facing squirrel girl for some reason. Hulk ranges from weak to strong, and Sentry magically gained molecule powers when facing molecule man because the author for sentry's series just loves mary sues.
In short, a character's power in game shouldn't depend on the comics or tv show, which is also the case for DOHK.
