This is the only game i'm looking forward to. Frick me but everything sucks. And I really hope it's good because after Gotham Knights completely shit the bed we need some thing good.

kek, you dumb le capeshit weebs are a minority, kys
If anything atleast the porn will be good
the models look like shit so i doubt it
Superman and Batman look decent. The Superbat porn might be good.
homosexual.
yes? anon you do realize this is Ganker right?
also Boomer looks decent too.
this Harley looks worse than the one in Gotham Knights
The leaks on Ganker make it sound like a complete shit show
What are the leaks?
1:
2:
fricking hell
please be not real
The bit about it being gaas originally is 100% true anyways as the devs said that themselves 2 years ago
This is believable because of WB. Rebooting it so they can churn out Batman and Joker games in the future, Flashpoint is an easy reset button etc. I actually like that, yeah you kill the justice league. The title isn't a lie. It seems like an overall story that people will tear apart but the moments seem like they would be cool if the gameplay isn't terrible.
>I actually like that, yeah you kill the justice league. The title isn't a lie.
This is exactly why a lot of people hate this. Fans just want a decent Justice League experience, and frankly the Suicide Squad has no real justification to pull such a feat off
Jusr for fricking once we want a Justice League adaptation that doesn't shit on the Justice League. The DCMU completely shit the bed in giving DC heroes any sort of respect. They also already did this kill em all shit in the Injustice games and Apokalyps War movie. They don't have to fricking do it over and over again.
As we saw with the Avengers, trying to get a big array of different playstyles and characters together is just too big of a gameplay effort. All the SS will use guns and some basic forms of melee, and based on the leak they didn't even want to make Ollie/Green Arrow because of bows being unique to him. While for the SS I imagine weapons will be interchangeable for many.
>one collectible is a riddler trophy very early on im the game (like straight out lf the tutorial mission) that plays a pre-recorded messages making you think that your going to have to collect riddler trophies again only for the message to have Riddlers hideout attacked by braniac drones and his screams of pain and finally death
Kek
I can believe this just because it lets them redo the Arkham universe without Bruce being outed in Knight since there was nowhere to go but the Bat Family and if I remember right Rocksteady wanted to do a Damien game as well.
well shit according to the second one they removed the GaaS shit
>once the game is over that's it
That kind of sucks. At least Gotham Knights has some radial missions
Not sure how true the "Originally GaaS" part is since they never mentioned anything about it being GaaS when it was announced back in August 2020 (i.e. before Squeenix Avengers came out), although it was delayed by a year last March so maybe that was them removing all the GaaS stuff.
All I recall was when both the games leaked in 2019 or something (gotham knights and suicide squad) israeli Jason said that SS was going to be a gaas game while gk was going to be a normal game.
There's no way GK was always intended to be a regular game with that UI
israeli Jason insists it was never a gaas game
somehow I don't believe him
i mean if they didn't have GaaS to begin with what did they remove? It reminds me of Cyberpunk 2077 acting like they didn't have 3rd person or certain classes.
Could just be general polish.
GK got delayed as well and according to Jason that was never GaaS.
>general polish
>the only reason we've seen anything lately is because Kevin Conroy died and ~~*(they*~~) wanted to let everyone know it was his last performance
>nothing else to show despite the game releasing in 5 to 6 months
Not looking good. Seems if it's not GaaS they really are banking on whales and consooomers who want to see Batman one last time.
>trying go milk Conroy beyond the grave
The last ditch effort
I hope that all of that is true just so AAA buygay morons will get raped once again.
I surely don't think WB would allow a game like possibly ruining the reputation of their most beloved gaming company (Rocksteady) and universe (arkhamverse)... right? I mean... would they?
Aquaman sucks jokes will never be funny, the only good joke to ever be made at his expense was when they killed him in teen titans go to the movies.
Also devs being to shit to handle more than one weapon type is pretty fricking lame.
Actually weird they would make the joke after the serious life action movie made so much money
Maybe that's the point. Hey look at us we don't play by the rules and apply corporate mandate to our game aren't we so cool and edgy.
The Aquaman jokes never made sense in the first place even back when it was relevant. Everyone was silly on Super Friends, and shit comedians just perpetuated the lame misconception. Thanks to recent books and of course the movies, causals finally wised up saying "Oh frick, he's actually got a lot going for him"
>Thanks to recent books and of course the movies, causals finally wised up saying "Oh frick, he's actually got a lot going for him"
This. Most of the Aquaman is lame jokes can probably be traced back to the Super Friends.
Which to be fair, it's hard to shake the image of 1970s Aquaman riding a giant seahorse. Wonder Woman suffered similar Super Friends backlash, but not as severe. The example being casuals being dumb enough to think that you could actually see Diana from outside the plane, being the only visible thing. No, she'd be invisible too, and she can see what she's doing in there
What's the gameplay like? Can I control all four characters like some sort of X-Men Legends thing? Or is it co-op?
>Can I control all four characters
Yes this is 1 of the few things they confirmed about the game. You can play in single player and switch between all 4
Sounds like Brute Force on the Xbox.
>westoid games
it looks absolutely awful and nothing like the arkham games, what the frick is there to be excited about?
But you can play as Boomerang Man and Black person Shooterman!
"excited" is the wrong word. it looks better than anything else coming out this year
>it looks better than anything else coming out this year
how is that relevant? it still looks like a shit game
Reread the OP. It's not just a Suicide Squad Thread. If you have to buy something you should always choose the lesser of all evils.
>It's not just a Suicide Squad Thread
uh huh honey
even if you were correct, that still doesn't make this game somehow enticing, it looks objectively bad
frick off moron
>this is the only thing I'm looking forward to
>Frick me everything sucks
The discussion is open to critique other games
I just will never understand entering a thread about a topic you know you aren't interested in. Like wouldn't you just ignore it so it archives? I've never gone into a Genshin Impact or Fortnite thread because I'm not into that shit.
>pls g-good vibes only
go suck a dick you ginormous reddit homosexual
What the frick are you even talking about, homo? You fricking left brained moron. You don't think that if you just never bother with threads you hate, you would probably see them less? Look at Andy Sixx threads on /b/ or "Am I chubby" threads on /LULZ/. everyone stopped paying attention to those posts and they stopped showing up as much. But you don't think. Anon.
tl;dr
this game is gonna suck a dick
like you
T. left brained cromagnon who can't read or think worth a damn.
Don't bother replying. I don't conversate with cavemen. I refuse.
>I need to post in every thread on the board.
How is that better?
Completely different situation. The devs of this game made the Arkham trilogy, you moronic homosexual so people know they have potential. This EXACT same game failed three times already with Avengers, Guardians of the Galaxy and Gotham Knights. And this one is conceptually even worse than those were since you're forced to play as people nobody cares about.
The fact they're working on cancer like this is a complete waste and it's natural people voice their disdain.
>Guardians of the Galaxy
This wasn't a loot crafting game. It was just a linear action game. There was no gaas stuff and no stats or loot.
The people complaining in this thread are mad that "capeshit" is on the board at all. Just a bunch of weeb manbabies who think they're better for spamming the catalogue with soft core e-girl porn all day everyday. Those are the people i was referring to.
Well capeshit IS pure cringe to be fair. If your game is capeshit, it better be about Batman or Spider-Man. Those are the only two acceptable superheroes.
I don't care. One's a furry the other is a glorified Power Ranger. I still wouldn't go into their threads just to shit on them and just let them enjoy what they want.
Guardians of the Galaxy was more like a Mass Effect-esque game, it was nothing like Avengers or GK. The only reason GotG failed was because of the Avengers coming before it poisoning the well, it was actually a good game and people constantly say that, and it sucks that Eidos won't make more.
I heard Guardians of the Galaxy was actually good.
/v/ermin enjoy misery and the misery they can bring or share with others. People could be playing games or self-improving or getting laid or working out. Instead they willingly choose to devote several hours a day to this place.
>j-just let people enjoy things!
this is how we keep getting this same shit, “people” consoom it endlessly and no one says a word
weebs tend to grow up with an inferiority complex, just let them be and ignore them.
Like 60% of the gays that visit this site want to be an anime woman.
I DO like superheroes, that's why I hope all current superhero media fails and public interest shits up something else.
I'm only really concerned what the gameplay is going to look like considering it looks like it's going to be more action oriented rather than Arkham.
Im excited to watch it on youtube too then immediately fap to a character or two and then never thinking about it until 2028 when i have a PS5 and the complete edition is on sale for $4.99
Id be more excited if they went with Bloodsport or Peacemaker over cumshot.
Is this game gonna come out on ps4?
No, current gen + PC only.
Nope. Its PS5, Series S/X and PC only and one of the devs complained about how shit the series s is last year so expect the series s version to be a piece of shit.
>Nope. Its PS5, Series S/X and PC only
Oh so its going to flop hard
Reminder according to WB themselves this is a gaas game with shit like loot and crafting like Avengers. This is what they said the game was 2 or 3 years ago when they revealed it. That could have changed since then due to how shit Avengers did.
They definite pulled that shit out, regardless of the leaks.
>15+ Xboxes, 20m+ PS5s and PC
It'll be fine, if the game is good. Now will it break even, who knows. It could sell 3-4 and still flop with how much time they have been making it and whatever internal issues happened to make the founders of Rocksteady leave
The amount of sold systems doesn't matter as much as the attachment rate. The majority of people with PS5 and Xbox Series X might only be playing Sports games, Battle Royale, and GTAV on them.
Just look at the previous gen. PS4 sold 106m units yet the best selling title was GoW with 23 million, meaning less than a quarter of PS4 users buy the big titles.
Its funny how this is up on steam and PSN but not the Xbox store. I assume they are having huge issues getting it to work on Series S.
>31 Million views
>when she's hot but you keep it professional
>Been waiting for Suicide Squad since 2013 after Arkham Origins
>Strong possibility of this being shit because it's falling for a model that has not and will never work unless the game is completely free with micro transactions later
Frick. Frick. FRICK
I don't think it's a live-service game
Warner Brothers literally said it was when they revealed the game. That could have changed of course.
>Warner Brothers literally said it was when they revealed the game
No they didn't, they said it was a regular action-adventure open world game
>Another WB licensed game thread
Bored of making Harry Potter threads shill?
>WB game
I'll buy it a year after release once all the bugs are fixed and truck loads of DLC are out.
This literally applies to every single non nintendo game not just WB
I buy most new Capcom games for $20-$30 by just waiting a month
Capcom have been doing that since almost day 1 lol. I remember street fighter 2 getting a new version every year when I was a kid.
Cash isn't much of an issue, it's getting a proper first expensive. I bought DMC5 at $50 and not waiting for Vergil's DLC to hit didn't hurt the main game at all unlike the Season of Infamy shit from Arkham Knight adding a bunch to the main game.
*first experience.
I bought the whole pack. What was missing before Season of Infamy? I thought it was just a bunch of side stories and race tracks
mr freeze, killer croc, ras al ghul and all the shit where you play as other characters
how did any of those affect the main story?
Flow wise it did, I'd rather play other shit while that all gets done then boot it up for 20 minutes every 3 months.
batman trilogy
>block and counter attacks to keep the gameplay flowing
spider-man and gotham knights
>you dodge out of the way and break the gameplay flow
>Why can't I just mash Triangle to counter everything
>yes instead I mash circle with no timing required
At least bamham had enemies that require different methods of countering
That's fun
Spiderman was always the inferior clone, unfortunately GK didn't get the memo and copied Spider-Man instead of following the thing they literally invented
>GK didn't get the memo and copied Spider-Man
I don't remember GK having juggling or usable gadgets
Frick man the gadgets in GK were terrible. In GK it was mostly controlling the environment before combat started. Batgirl was particularly egregious because she has a skill that lets you overcharge mines and circuit breakers but you can't use it because the enemies interrupt you before you can.
WB Montreal didn't invent the free flow combat system and I'm sure they wanted Gotham Knights to stand out and not just be another Arkham game since it isn't part of that series
Dodging attacks with Spider-Sense fits Spider-Man more than countering did in the Amazing Spider-Man movie games
>Batman counter is meant to predict the enemy moves which is why the symbol is above their heads. You can watch the scene but can't focus on the animations as much
>Spider-Man just senses the danger and moves it forces you to watch Spider-Man at all times during combat and makes the dodging more difficult.
If only there was some combination of the two
From the little that's been shown, this looks to be as bad as Gotham Knights.
Why would I give WB money when they're platforming a bigot? I won't be buying their stuff while they promote transphobia
So when are they actually going to bother to advertise this game because its out in May and they have hardly shown anything.
We've seen this so many times with games and it never turns out good for fans
>Game first announced
>Radio silence
>5 years later a trailer with a release window for within a year and a half
>Delay shortly after
>Radio silence until 4 months before release
>Lots of vague marketing speak about whether features were kept if not outright being told features they announced a year ago were removed
>Game runs and plays like shit
I don't like saying it was WBs fault just because it's impossible to tell what is a lie and what's the truth regarding behind the scenes, but I can't imagine Rocksteady wanted to do a Suicide Squad game and try to constantly tie it back to the movies that just wouldn't take off. Shame WB won't have a mediocre anime for normies to eat up that for some reason pulls it out from the brink of death.
Getting ready for another delay
Will there be cross play between console and pc for the coop?
I genuinely believe the leaks and I'm fricking pissed. I had no faith in this game to begin with, but what I've read is outright insulting
I just hope the Wonder Woman game is decent. Also frick the coping OP
>I genuinely believe the leaks
then your a fricking moron
We've had valid leaks on Ganker numerous times and none of this is outside the realm of WB stupidity
Ganker leaks are always real
Well not always but the track record is surprisingly good. Hell they have industry guys from cartoons and comics and other shit pop in all the time to dish dirt.
That's not entirely accurate. WB Games doesn't really give a shit about films outside selling cosmetics that look like them. The problem is WB Games not believing in any DC game project not related or at least adjacent to Batman.
>That's not entirely accurate. WB Games doesn't really give a shit about films outside selling cosmetics that look like them. The problem is WB Games not believing in any DC game project not related or at least adjacent to Batman.
Didn't have to, but will now. Going forward WB and James Gunn wants everything to be interconnected. Every movie, every TV show, every game, every comic will exist in the same "universe" and serve as nothing but supplement material. They want to go the way of Lucasfilm where every Star War product share the same universe.
There's no validity to that being applied to games
It will be applied to everything. Why do you think they're using this game as a reboot of sorts?
Why did WB force them to make this shit that nobody wants instead of a Justice League game?
WB have been trying to make a Suicide Squad game since 2010, even teasing it at the end of Arkham Origins (but only a spin-off film came of that)
So here's what rumors say what happened:
>WB Montreal and Rocksteady are working on their respective DC game projects
>WB feels the need to micromanage instead of letting their devs work.
>Rocksteady was originally working on a Superman game, or possibly an Arkham sequel, Montreal was working on the Suicide Squad game that was teased in Arkham Origins (the prequel they made)
>WB cancels the Superman game
>WB asks dev teams to swap projects
>Rocksteady is told to focus efforts on Suicide Squad either thinking it will be the next big series or have lack of faith and think the "Arkhamverse" brand will help boost sales
>WB Montreal works on Gotham Knights, a game that suspiciously has a setup that could have been tweaked to follow Bruce's "Death" in Arkham Knight
>WB asks Rocksteady to invoke movie synergy towards a film that eventually fails, thus poorly retconning the new Deadshot into canon
>Superman assets and work done is remixed into Suicide Squad game, hence the Brainiac presence in Metropolis
>WB asks Rocksteady to input GaaS shit in game structure to milk game revenue, as seen in games like Shadow of Mordor. Also misguidedly think game can work as a ongoing mulitplayer
>Square Enix's GaaS Avengers game bombs, WB gets scared
>Announce game, spend two years not revealing real gameplay footage or explain what kind of game we're getting
>Allegedly gut game and remove GaaS stuff, as seen in leaks posted
>Gunn's SS movie is actually well received, but new characters like Peacemaker and Bloodsport are axed for just references
I bet you anything too most of the talent at Rocksteady left mid Arkham Knight production
>Gotham Knights, a game that suspiciously has a setup that could have been tweaked to follow Bruce's "Death" in Arkham Knight
Glad I wasn't the only one to notice that
It's very clear Gotham Knights was indeed a recycled Arkham Knight sequel that was given to WB Montreal and workshopped to death to be its own, flawed self-contained game where WB could try and sell shitty skins/boosters (which didn't work out). Think about it
>Joker is never mentioned nor explained as to where he is. This is odd considering Joker would want to know who killed Batman, and his absence indicates original script had him dead like at the end of Arkham City
>Clayface's accident and fractured mind very well have been originally referencing his dip in the Lazarus Pit in the finale of Arkham City
I'm sure there are more examples
Because WB is terrified to show anything, and very likely asked Rocksteady to revamp it late production due to shifting trends
>WB asks dev teams to swap projects
That's not how this shit works, these "leaks" are moronic. A Bruce is alive in Knights.
>A Bruce is alive in Knights.
Way to miss the point this hard. It's called a rewrite, moron. AK ends with people thinking Bruce was dead, Gotham Knights started their game with theirs actually dead to recycle the sequel script
Wouldn't Ztim and Barbara be together if it was a continuation at any point?
>Gunn's SS movie is actually well received, but new characters like Peacemaker and Bloodsport are axed for just references
It was a huge bomb. It lost the studio 100 millions.
Yeah cause people just watched it on HBO Max. If it actually had a theatrical run it would've done fine.
Stop spreading lies to cope about your favorite goyslop bombing hard.
TSS had a theatrical release. During 2021 Warner Bros decided to release ALL of their movies for that year simultaneously for both theaters and HBO MAX in an attempt to push their new streaming service.
It wasn't just TSS that was released same day and date in theaters and streaming, but Wonder Woman 1984, Godzilla vs Kong, Dune, Mortal Kombat, and so on.
The only movie that bomb badly was TSS. Nobody went to watch it.
So stop with this bullshit that TSS was successful. It was not.
Not that anon but it was genuinely positively received. It wasn't a bad film. Though I don't know what kind of revenue we're talking here
By critics, maybe, but it still lost the studio money.
Sold like shit, classic case of garbage doing well but killing sales for the good sequel. (e.g devil may cry 2 selling great while 3 initially flopped)
Or... TSS was shit and nobody watched because it looked like and was in fact shit.
WB genuinely has no faith in Superman as a traditional lead.
And its their own fault for letting Snyder ruin him.
Ok but they could have made Arkham Batman the leader of the Justice League then
It saddens me, I just finished Superman TAS last night and it's better than most Superman movies
Too bad season 4 was scrapped and JL happened instead.
I've heard good things about Justice League, though. At least, season 2 and Unlimited
Season 1 has some good episodes, though because superman TAS got canceled there is a jarring leap between legacy and the first episode of JL that is never really addressed. It eventually gets revisited in JLU
Because New 52 murdered Harley Quinn but Margot Robbie has ruined Harley Quinn forever. And when you don't like something they will proceed to push it forever. Comics, cartoons, merchandise, and now this shit. What's the most famous thing Harley is known for now? Suicide Squad. So here we are. Nu Squad
Robbie's Harley Quinn outfit is far superior to the abomination of nu52 Harley, though neither holds a candle to the original.
You can't be serious. Even if the Nu52 costume is terrible it's way better than the Robbie costume. Ayer for some reason wanted all the characters to be tattooed monstrosities. And the tattoos tell you who the character is supposed to be.
I'm not talking about any tattoos, I'm talking about the 'Daddy's Little Monster' outfit, which, while cringy, is far better than the nu52 stripper costume.
The daddy's lil monster outfit had tattoos anon. She had diamonds and smiles and a puddin tat iirc
And Jared Leto had DAMAGED on his forehead, what's your point?
A Justice League game would have sucked as well because it would have been an adaptation of the Timmverse cartoon which is not what you want in JL.
>adaptation of the Timmverse cartoon which is not what you want in JL.
The frick are you talking about? The DCAU is widely praised
JL/U was praised by people who never actually read the comics. It’s ground zero for Batwank.
Oh frick off you contrarian little shit. Yes the Batwank was annoying, but it was still a good series. Great Superman, good stories, the only real fault was not giving Wally and Diana enough to do
>the only real fault was not giving Wally and Diana enough to do
Literally everyone not Batman, and Superman in that order got jackshit. People bring up Green Lantern but was the most boring member of the team and was the black writer’s self insert.
>Superman in that order got jackshit.
He had his own entire series...
Depends which. At least going off memory, I can't really see less Batwank in the 90s JLA than in Timm's stuff.
Only if Timm is given full creative control over an M rated title. I want to give more freedom to the madman who spent 40 minutes of a Killing Joke adaptation forcing his depraved ship on everyone. I want to see what other degenerate things this man can do. What's the fricking point otherwise? So I can see the same shit as when I was a kid?
Why are they so afraid to show uninterrupted gameplay? Arkham Knight showed it like a year before release.
They've probably been shifting shit around a lot all this time and remixing things as much as possible to follow whatever trend they think will get this thing off the ground
So how'd they get Kevin Conroy back from the grave for this one?
It was supposed to come out last year so presumably he already recorded all the lines before he died
All I want is a Nightwing/Batgirl game.
good news, you got that last year
Homie I just want a game revolving around them, and not Jason the Crackbaby and Tim the Homo.
>they barely interact
>Nightwing is closer to Starfire (through e-mail)
>Batgirl offhandedly mentions they dated and "never again"
These characters don't match anything we've ever seen. They feel like caricatures. They feel like the pilot episode of that Gotham Knight TV show that was supposed to come out
Anon, you claim everything sucks (which I agree with) and you still look forward to this garbage?
have a nice day. You're an NPC
Give me one good reason why I should care about any story Superman is in, when realistically he should just be an instant win.
The most praised Superman stories aren't generally about physical feats, though they are featured. All-Star straight up makes him stronger than ever and immune to kryptonite right off the bat.
>when realistically he should just be an instant win
god i hate when homosexuals don't read the legitimately good superman comics
I feel the same whenever I see a top 10 Batman comics and Hush and Death in the Family are listed.
The good Superman stories are written in a way where writers try to circumvente the fact that the character is nothing but wish-fulfilment who can never lose. So they try to write sob stories trying to show how hard things are for the character like him being too caring, or people being too mean to him, or him being too powerful and needing to wrestle with the fact he could rule us all, and all type of nonsense that doesn't really endear a reader to the character and just feels more pretentious character wank.
With the way Zaslav is destroying everything to make any amount of money to pay for the WB acquisition I doubt we'll ever get a good superhero game again that isn't just some paint-by-numbers open world joint or second job masquerading as a games-as-service. Bamham was right place, right time.
True, before too long we'll be nostalgic about DC constantly betting all their chips on Batshit and Jokershit.
Isn't Monolith still making a Wondy game?
Either we get an update about Wonder Woman during one of the big summer conventions like E3 or Comic-con or it got cancelled and nobody noticed because Zaslav sold off the Sopranos and the Wire and replaced all the other prestige dramas with grotesque reality shows.
All people really want is a decent Superman and Flash game. Hell anyone that isn't Batman at this point. That's why people are aching for the Wonder Woman game to succeed, to make other stuff possible
Quads of truth
The Gotham Knights hate is moronic. I played it on PC in December after a few lost release patches and it was great. More like Spider Man than Arkham but that makes sense since Batgirl isnt a fricking tank like Bruce.
Stop parroting shitty Twitter takes, play as Batgirl and GK is a great game
no
I got it, but sadly my GPU is just below the minimum requirement. There's this mod in Nexus that supposedly downgrades the graphics, I hope it works.
No, I played it. It's actually fricking dull as paint drying on a wall bruh. Compare it to Arkham Knight and its so shit. I didn't even like Arkham Knight so that's saying something.
>We could've gotten Rocksteady's Superman game in 2018-19 if WB didn't forced them to make GaaS SS.
>We could've gotten WB Montreal (pre-woke) Batman game in 2020-21 if WB didn't make them dick around since 2013.
>We might get Monolith's WW game this year, but the silence is worrying.
Then we could've gotten
>Rocksteady's The Flash game
>WB Montreal Green Lantern game
>Monolith's Aquaman game
Then a joint effort for a proper Justice League game. But it's forever a fantasy.
Don't forget that we would have been on Injustice 3 if Warner wasn't so freaked out about their financials they forced Netherrealm on another Mortal Kombat instead.
I think WW is gonna be late 2024/early 2025 at the earliest
>>WB Montreal Green Lantern game
Who would you guys rather play as: Hal or his sidekicks?
Guy Gardner unironically.
Any other answer is shit taste.
The brown hiki one, tentacles are fun.
I'm biased because while I never watched it as a kid I grew up around Justice League/Unlimited, so my preference is John Stewart
I'm guessing it's Superman being turned on and treated like a menace? I can live with that not being addressed until later. Honestly with how season 3 ended I'm fine with there not being a fourth season.
I'm sure season 1 of Justice League is fine but the only thing that I'm a bit confused about is why every episode except the Christmas one is a multi parter, kinda kills rewatchability vs Unlimited having more standalone episodes
>except the Christmas one is a multi parter
That's almost every episode in JL season 1 and 2. Made for kino cliffhangers like when Flash is the only guy on the Watchtower not mind controlled by crystal shards because of Thanagarian Black persony.
I am looking forward to it at least. I panic bought the complete series box set because I saw they're removing both shows from Max by the end of the month and I know I won't be able to watch the entire show before that happens (and I'm likely gonna take a break to watch other stuff because I sped through Batman Beyond and then watched Superman immediately after). The next show I start will probably be Static Shock because I'm black and was actually able to watch it growing up and February is right around the corner but one of my friends told me to alternate seasons of that and Justice League/Unlimited since heroes show up in both shows
I recommend you watch batman beyond before finishing JLU season 2. The finale is essentially the ending to beyond
>The finale is essentially the ending to beyond
The ending ruins Batman Beyond. All because a sleazy little nerd wanted to self insert.
I finished Beyond in about a week, right before I watched Superman TAS. Really my only regret with how I'm tackling the DCAU is that I'm not going in the right order (I watched the entirety of Batman TAS and New Batman Adventures but didn't watch Superman TAS so I was a little lost when Supergirk showed up, then watched Beyond and its movie so I was a bit lost in the JL episode of that show) but if nothing else it's made me appreciate the continuity a lot more and pay attention when episodes and stories are connected/continued the way they are. Rewards dedicated viewers.
That was a great episode and I didn't even really notice it. That episode kinda cemented to me that Superman TAS was better than most of the Superman movies, honestly
New Adventures and superman aired in the same block, I think it was an episode of the new batman adventures and an episode of superman the animated series? That's why there's a double feature intro for them.
Those 3 episodes where batman and superman are involved were part of this.
I guess Max just removes this because when I watched World's Finest it was just the normal intro.
But the crossover episodes in Superman as a whole were fun, seeing the League semi forming must have been exciting back then. Is there any explanation as to why Kyle isn't Green Lantern in Justice League and they opted for John Stewart instead, since Superman TAS had him be Green Lantern for an episode? I'll admit that's a bit inconsistent
Not really. Like another anon said John was most likely the black writer's self insert, Kyle's wherabouts I don't think are ever brought up, he might appear again way later but i'm not sure. Hawkgirl showing up out of knowhere, Bruce knowing Diana, and the others meeting up is a bit contrived and never really gets explained.
Way later Hal Jordan Makes a brief appearance for like a few seconds, idk what the writers had against him.
>Is there any explanation as to why Kyle isn't Green Lantern in Justice League and they opted for John Stewart instead, since Superman TAS had him be Green Lantern for an episode? I'll admit that's a bit inconsistent
Diversity hire. No I'm not making that up, Bruce Timm wanted a nonwhite character on the team.
Nothing wrong with that I suppose, considering I'm black it was nice to see John in the show and the promo material as a kid (even if I never watched it back then) and for what it's worth they at least gave Hal a show down the line and he became the go to Lantern again despite the shitty 2011 movie basically killing the show.
JL was made at the time Hal was dead, so they couldn't get him, but even if they could, they wanted a more diverse team so they opted for John.
Part of me was hoping the DCEU would have John too, but I guess that isn't gonna happen. Maybe the DCU will have him, and actually be more consistently good this time.
>and actually be more consistently good this time
You've to be delusional to think that. The same producer that did Shazam and Birds of Prey is the one running things and you've Gunn that hasn't made a successful movie without Kevin Feige and the MCU brand behind him.
Every movie will be a generic self-aware action comedy that will pale in comparison to the MCU which will just make audiences skip on everything since they already have the MCU movies to be hyped about.
Shazam I really enjoyed, but Birds of Prey was just weird and a huge mess. I liked Gunn's Suicide Squad as well. Honestly as long as they actually have a fricking plan this time and not a bunch of shit thrown at the wall trying to play catch up with Marvel like how the DCEU started, I think it has potential to be good, or at least better than most of what we were getting for the last decade
They won't have any plan. Trust me. The moment a movie flop the head honcho will breath down the producers' necks and they will panic. Gunn will also micromanage everything and every movie will feel like his shitty action comedies. Say goodbye to things like Joker.
A problem the format with the DCAU previously was not having enough time to fully explore what they wanted to do in some epsiodes.
For example: Superman TAS season 2, The Late Mr. Kent, is a very good episode, but the climax is unneeded filler and feels like it only exists because they ran out of time to do something else. Supes has a battle with the detective guy who tries to fight him with a fricking helicopter and supes has 0 chance of losing. The ending and the rest of the episode is super kino though so it makes up for it
I will say JL season 1 doesn't really take advantage of the multi ep format too well, JL season 2 for sure does, and JLU season 2 essentially turns into a big ongoing story towards the end with the multi ep format
A lot of the stuff in your post seems reaching, but I just realized holy shit Arkham Knight is now older than Asylum was in 2015.
Frick AAA video games and frick anyone who buys them anymore.
Evil superman is played out, give me my evil Clark Kent who uses his power as a journalist for Ill so a realistic journalist
I'm sick of Batman, I just want something new and better.
I can't do it anymore. I tried to get into these movies and shows over the last 10 years. But man... nothing matches up to the comics. It's too depressing.
I hate the "wacky so randumb" tone this game is going for compared to the established serious tone of the previous games in the Arkham verse.
https://youtu.be/UiH3g5EugP4
Seems to me that this game clearly originally not meant to be in the arkham verse and was only shoved into it later in development
How can Batman lose to these homosexuals in a boss fight when we already played him and know how powerful he is and that there's zero chance they would have beaten him in Arkham Knight? He'd just use smoke bomb and disruptor and silent takedowns.
>tfw no Arkhamverse version of this
I think what pisses me off most about this game isn't the premise, leaks, or even the shitty multiplayer Overwatch gameplay they've hinted, but the fact that they gave Captain Boomerang and King Shark fricking guns
>Captain Boomerang and King Shark fricking guns
a boomergang only gets you so far gameplay wise and king shark would be boring as shit if all he did was swipe and smash
I'm going to refrain from calling you an idiot or a shill in favor of educating you, friend.
>a boomergang only gets you so far gameplay wise
Incorrect. Digger has a shit ton of tricks up his sleeve to face down the fastest man alive. Imagine how insane combat could be with 5 energy boomerangs ricocheting off bad guys, catching them and tossing them out again with various buffs or even use them for puzzles. God of War has satisfying recall mechanics for their axe, same can be applied here.
>king shark would be boring as shit if all he did was swipe and smash
Rage mechanics, grapples, biting, eating, basically an aquatic hulk throwing debris too. There's plenty to work with.
You really have to blame a lot of this on WB Games micromanaging devs
Things are going to get worse going forward.
Everything will have to be connected and share the same "universe". That means that the new games, comics, and animated movies they will exist mostly to just promote the movies. You won't have some separate thing like the Arkham games or the Injustice games. Everything will have to conform to how they are in the newest movies.
I'm more hyped for the Wonder Woman game.
Same, I hope we get gameplay soon
I'll give him the benefit of a doubt for the time being. We can honestly only go up from most of the DCEU, to me at least, because some of those movies were genuinely unpleasant and just make you feel bad because it could and should have been easy to not frick up
this game is basically borderlands as every character uses guns but will have 1 special cooldown power each
When are we getting a Hellblazer game?
That would just be a point and click.
Assuming the leaks are real, any "Reboot" would only be applied to the Arkham games so they can milk Batman and Joker more given how their stories ended. This has absolutely nothing to do with films, and your logic is flawed. In fact WB wouldn't mesh the two because A) not all moviegoers play games and B) they still think Arkham is a viable IP on it's own and don't want it associated with their shaky film shit
Gunn himself said that everything will share the same continuity going forward. They gave that reason for why they're rebooting their movies among other things.
>Gunn himself said that everything will share the same continuity going forward.
FOR.
FILMS.
Gunn hasn't mentioned nor does he give a flying frick about video games. Your logic doesn't even make sense considering The Flash movie is allegedly doing a Flashpoint reboot. Why the hell would that AND the Suicide Squad game do the exact same thing? That macguffin is only needed once, and if you were right, the games wouldn't even bother.
>Gunn hasn't mentioned nor does he give a flying frick about video games.

There you go. Thank you.
>he give a flying frick about video games.
he directed lollipop chainsaw
By this point its over and the MCU is already declining, DC is just trying to play catch up after a decade of falling behind. Also, you are now remembering that the Rock attempted to take over the DCU and push himself as the face of the series.
I'm looking forward to Spider-Man 2, and the only reason why it MIGHT be connected to Wolverine is because Insomniac games is developing both. That Iron Man game by Motive may be its own thing, but I hope its good.
Man, I wish Hulk and Thor would get AAA games
They should just hire Insomniac to do their own little MCU.
See I think that's a bad idea. Insomniac's two Marvel projects going on right now are only a thing because THEY asked SONY to do them, and are big fans of the material. Any more loaded onto their plate, the quality is likely to dip and the passion being gone. Plus I'd hate to stagnate the dev team only doing capeshit. They made Ratchet & Clank too you know. Long story short, let them do what they want.
I hate Krakoa too and the fact that its weaseling its way into every other non X-Men book. However I doubt that stuff will come up given how new it is. It's a Wolverine game, we're more likely to see James wander the globe with X-23
>I'm looking forward to Spider-Man 2, and the only reason why it MIGHT be connected to Wolverine is because Insomniac games is developing both.
I forgot the X-Men are trash these day. Frick, being a comicgay is suffering
The Krakoa stuff will never EVER leak into movies, cartoons, or games because most of it have Cyclops being a cuckold who shares his own house and wife, Phoenix, with Wolverine, and that shit would just make the characters look weird as frick to general audience.
Cyclops is a cuck now?
Mutants now have mass orgies, pulled a culture/language out of their ass overnight, and basically larp on an island similar to that CHOP shit in Georgia a few years ago. Cyclops, Jean, Wolverine, and Emma Frost all live in the same housing unit and frick each other
What the frick happened to comic books
One editor unironically joked that Wolverine now had a second mutation which was a second dick. One dick was to make love to Phoenix, another was so he could frick Cyclops.
The comics themselves haven't acknowledged the idea of Cyclops and Wolverine being homosexuals just the weird cuckold/bull angle, but having an editor unironically joke about shit like this shows you exactly how pozzed the editorial is and how weird the comics have been the last few years.
I am just glad that Disney itself would never allow for something like this to bleed elsewhere.
I think the problem is that social media caught wind of the new X-Men status quo, and those narcissists fell in love with the self-important power fantasy of it all and Marvel decided to keep it. There is no way in hell this was supposed to be long term
>I think the problem is that social media caught wind of the new X-Men status quo, and those narcissists fell in love with the self-important power fantasy of it all and Marvel decided to keep it. There is no way in hell this was supposed to be long term
The fact that it was introduced at all is a problem. There so much you can do with such concept as a group of powerful characters just controlling a country of sorts with all kinds of ridiculous sci-fi shit, but writers just care about inserting their own weird fetishes and "ships" into it.
It's not even an original idea for X-Men since Magneto tried the Genosha shit before.
If it's the mess we're hearing it to be, you might have to wait a bit more. We have no estimated release, no game footage, nothing. Just overly cinematic trailers to remind you it exists. I'm inclined to believe the leak given how stupid it is and the fact that it finally named the guy we saw in the trailer (Gizmo)
>We have no estimated release,
lol
Oh that's news to me. Though I wouldn't be surprised if it gets delayed
DC will never reach this climax again. There's no passion behind any of their projects.
At least they're not releasing it 3 days before it.
>drops in four months
>no real in-depth gameplay shown yet
What are they waiting on?
supposedly all footage we saw, is gameplay and not a cutscene.
Grabbing control from a player to see characters talk isn't gameplay. That just means its seamless transition. We don't know the first thing about this game mechanically.
Yes, the comic editors and writers made him from the betrayed partner, which is something that mostly came from the old cartoons where Cyclops felt threatened by Wolverine, and the Bryan Singer movies where Cyclops is just fricking killed and later Phoenix tries to hop on Wolverine's dick, and just now have him as this out and proud cuckold who is happy about sharing his wife with Wolverine and even house Wolverine in his own house as some sort of the family's weird uncle.
The comic is also filled with a bunch of degenerate shit with jokes about the characters sharing partners, being all gay, and unironically having sex orgies.
Krakoa is like a Jim Jones cult where everyone is being built up high on hubris....except the fall has yet to come because I guess Marvel realized it was worth keeping it as status quo? This new standard has only made me hate mutants funny enough
>Bribe the world with healing plants
>Basically steal Mars and bribe their way into the galactic community (ironically just pissing off our alien neighbors)
>Shake hands with well known villains like Mister Sinister, Magneto, and fricking Apocalypse
>NO ONE questions if this is all legit, as Charles could have conveniently made everyone go along with this
>Every future with mutants is a hellscape, and the X-Men hate the singularity with machines
Wait theirs an Iron Man game being made? Source?
Its from same devs as the dead space remake. its not even a leak. its public information.
Huh, well hopefully it ends up being good
Calm down, there isn't even a trailer yet for it. Surprised it took this long to get an triple A Iron Man game going given how the character's gimmick is in a lot of other games. The biggest hurtle is likely seamless transition between ground combat and flight
>delayed for a year
Wonder why that happened?
There will be a share dc gane universe.
I think wonder woman will start this.
I believe that suicide aquad will be shit, because one of the founder left recently the company.
The person who leaked gotham knights a few years ago on resetera said the WW game was going to be set in same universe.
That doesn't track because the Wonder Woman designs look completely different
So after Hogwarts comes out will WB actually start promoting this shit and showing gameplay?
One of the things I hate about the new X-Men is how they take all these people from different parts of the world and somehow they're all "we are one people" hippies. Its so stupid.
Imagine releasing a week before a Zelda game. How moronic do you have to be to do that?
Does anyone here even read Batman's comics? I always thought DC's more obscure characters were better at what he did.
Why do they keep trying to force the Suicide Squad so hard?
Because Harley Quinn is in it and they made a movie that barely made its money back once
The first movie was a huge success money-wise even if critics hated it. The second bombed, but critics liked it.
Because the team was slowly morphed into "the Harley Quinn team" and DC executives were duped into thinking Harley Quinn can be one of DC’s pillars along Batman, Joker, Superman and Wonder Woman. Remember the game got announced before the Suicide Squad movie was even sent out to be trashed by audiences, they still had blind fate on the brand.
>Because the team was slowly morphed into "the Harley Quinn team" and DC executives were duped into thinking Harley Quinn can be one of DC’s pillars along Batman, Joker, Superman and Wonder Woman.
Just a reminder that Ganker created this monster in the first place by buying this shitty game
What's wrong with City?
It was an incohesive mess of a game that was just throwing bad guys at Batman instead of a noir kino. Also shitty Harley Quinn voiced by some harpy.
I can agree with the Harley part. I miss Arleen.
How did Rocksteady go to shit so quickly?
It wasnt quick really. Its been almost 10 years since Arkham Knight released.
