Suicide Squad is going to be Rocksteady's biggest game ever story-wise.
You are going to buy their upcoming narrative masterpiece, right?

I think they should pull a batgirl and just cancel the project then call it a tax write off
That was 90 million down the drain with a tiny tax write off recoup. This game likely cost way way more and it's like 10 years too late for the kind of game it is.
still not buying always online battlepass GaaS slop.
source?
Alien mummies of Peru
It's because they plan to milk the story for years through seasons and other shit.
Fricking lying pieces of shit. Have they no shame parading the voice of a beloved dead actor in this dogshit? They should have called it off. There are few companies more evil than modern Rocksteady. They are a crying shame to the brand, to the character, and to the people who worked tirelessly to bring Batman to life.
Batman has died dozens of times. It's capeshit, it gets reboots and spinoffs and people come back from the dead and nothing ever is of any consequence. Why does this trigger y'all so much? (notice I used the word y'all, which will trigger a Pavlovian response and get me extra (You)'s! lol)
>ya'll
Them making this a follow-up for Arkham games in the first place was the first greed red flag, there is no reason for this to be connected to the Arkhamverse except marketing.
Even the shit peddlers at IGN couldn't give it a high rating.
I'll just go watch a bunch of movies.
I find it funny that as soon as they waved away the NDA you still have a bunch of people who played it complain about the game.
something that specifically grinds my gears is this dude saying the way it's structured is basically disjointed in that it's several hours of grind for some interesting story bits but that overall it's a terrible idea for live service because as a product meant to be played constantly throughout the year the gameplay itself was too repetitive and tiring and if your only in it for the story it's a terrible purchase since once the story is done you'll most likely drop it and move on to something else which is also terrible for what's supposed to be live-service.
it's genuinely fricked no matter what
?si=zZjv86ZmnsRkJQuW
There were a bunch of people who came out in big support of it too btw (even more than the negatives.)
>IGN shows gameplay that makes the game look fricking HORRID
>WAVE THE NDA WB LET US TALK ABOUT IT!
>okay we have decided to let lift a portion of our NDA and let our passionate alpha testers speak themselves 😀
>yeah...the game is kind of shitty...
Devilish
He is never being allowed to test a WB game is he? Basically as soon as some of the NDA got lifted he just shits on it
its not him specifically I've seen a few comments from people who alpha tested it basically say the game was kind of bad or just shit.
I'm not so sure I'd go with his opinion. He gained a lot of his popularity prematurely hating on the game... it seems like most of the people who played it have generally favorable opinions on it, and people that are more skilled than your average journalist have made it look pretty darn stylish and fun, especially Captain Boomerang's gameplay, that being said, does it look like it's worth 70 bucks? Hell no. It's a live service looter shooter. We're gonna have a battle pass, dlc, and probably other cosmetics so why would I pay a premium to then have to pay you more for a game that, while it looks like it can be fun, is just a 4 player co-op shooter at heart. That's not gonna have the staying power that I can't even imagine how they've convinced themselves that it will. The HUD is also terrible.
Other than that, I don't think anyone wants to kill the Justice League in the game they are introduced and at least some of the previews are hinting at that not happening. It's also annoying that the only Justice League member on your side is, of course, the ugliest version of Wonder Woman I have ever seen. If there's one member I'd actually want to kill... but nope, feminist icon so we can't have that. Also, trying to play off Harley and Ivy as being a thing in the past is cringe. Nobody likes that, nobody wants that, at it never happened in the Arkham universe anyways, but anything to up that ESG score.
All in all it sucks because it looks like it could be fun, but I just can't see it succeeding at the price point they've set it at, especially with IGN playing it horribly and painting it in a terrible light. It'll come out, flop, and like Gotham Knights, it'll be abandoned.
I can't imagine giving this much of a shit about comic books and looter shooters. I just hope it fails and loads of people loose their jobs, now THATS fun.
"biggest" in terms of shear script size and number of cutscenes sure. i don't doubt it.
i doubt it's very compelling though. game reeks of by committee feeling.
I think the game has potential and I am waiting to see more. What bothers me is that people are hating on the game because of what it represents rather than its own merits.
Part of the negative discourse is that people who actually talk about video games online are reaching critical point with the GAAS slop exhaustion in general.
>What bothers me is that people are hating on the game because of what it represents rather than its own merits.
The game represents the cancer infesting modern gaming and the incoming death or Rocksteady. And what fricking merits? We all know it will be a shitty live service looter shooter with manface girlboss Harley Quinn and sweet baby Ivy
Why does this garbage even exist?
Warner Bros suits really want their own multibillion live service golden goose, and they keep being delusional about how much people care about their non-Batman and non-Superman characters (especially Harley).
>biggest game ever story-wise
what the frick does that even mean? just will have a lot of season passes with lots of busy work or what?
Is that a fricking dude with a shark face lmao
YES!
AND HIS MAIN THING IS HE SHOOTS GUNS !!
JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE IN THE GAME.
uhm his name is KING SHARK sweaty.
Yeah, he's Constantine's ex-boyfriend
biggest flop ever more like
It's also going to be their last game ever everything-wise.
LOL no, but I'm gonna watch it on YT since I think it's kinda interesting.
I cannot stomach any more american woke super hero slop. Marvel was a mistake.
Endgame should have been the end of superhero movies not named Spiderman or Batman.
It more or less was.
DC and Marvel just didn't get the message.
Capeshit is still getting watchers even if it has diminished, the main problem is that corporations categorically refuse to downsize to match that diminished audience and they expect numbers to go up forever even with the new literally who characters played by mediocre actors.
YAYYY DIVERSITY SQUAD CAPESHIT!!!
I HOPE THEY MAKE IT A GAAS AND ADD COOL MICROTRANSACTIONS AND BATTLE PASSES!!!!
MAKE A BAMHAM BEYOND GAME
Without Kevin Conroy barking orders in your ear, it'll never be what it should have been. Plus they'd probably base it on the current comic iteration
>You're a big story.
No ill probably just start a new Arkham City file and 100% it again
It looks awful but the story is also guaranteed to follow these beats
>Suicide Squad hate each other
>Oh wait they like each other now
>Justice League are evil and Suicide Squad kill them
>Oh wait no time travel fixed it
>Suicide Squad do awful things to people
>They slowly start to grow a conscience one by one and by the end they are better people
I don't care if the game is good or bad. I just PRAY that they keep this scene in with sound so I know what the FRICK is the context behind it
Is there any shred of doubt that this will bomb spectacularly?
Buy an ad.
I don't play games made post 2013, sorry
No, I'll watch the "Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League all cutscenes" movie on Youtube.
Can't wait for Rocksteady to close down after this flops.
