Rocksteady is going the same route as Violition then I guess.

Why you would go out of your way to trash your own well-received, well-selling franchise and piss off all your fans I'll never understand (same with Star Wars, Doctor Who, Marvel, Saints Row, etc).

And if these leaks are accurate, there's just no coming back from this (story-wise).

Sweet Baby Inc continues its legacy of tarnishing beloved properties for the sake of... progress(????)

This game is 100% going to flop, there's just no way around it.

And when it eventually flops, we can start wondering how much longer the studio will be around. What a shame.

I wonder if the servers will survive a year or they will be shut down before that

I see a lot of excitement around it lately. Dont think it will be a complete flop sales wise sadly

So it seems the leaks are true.


It sucks what they did to Poison Ivy. Can already tell she is going to be super annoying. Every game clip they show it’s the same thing, jump and shoot rinse and repeat. It looks border line mobile game. The more I see of this game, the more I feel it’s going to be a bargain bin purchase.

Conroy Batman and Greta Ivy.

Nuff said.

 

[LordCBH]

Game looks like ass, but I feel bad for them that it leaked. Really wish it didn’t.

I mean this just looks terrible, if I’m been kind the character facial animation looks good, I’m normally ok with Harley Quinn but she just seems REALLY annoying in this, I dunno whether it’s the VA, the awful writing or both, same with boomerang.

It just looks so repetitive and boring. Ooh look gun customisation, great, loads of pointless skill trees to grind away at, can’t wait. Same looking enemies that you take down in the same exact way, rinse and repeat. I can’t fucking wait.

I loved the Arkham games but this? Nah I’m good from what I’ve seen.

They showed a clip of one of the old Arkham games and I got excited for a second before I realized what it was. I don't really get why DC keeps trying to force Suicide Squad down our throats.

Karma strikes Warner Bros.

OMG this game will bomb so fucking hard. I can't believe the leaks are true after all.

edit: I love the fact that they make a comparison between Arkham series combat versus a generic Fortnite combat.

 

[haxan7]

They turned the sexiest DC villain into actual Peter Pan.

Because the first Suicide Squad movie was absolute garbage but made tons of money. That's the winning formula.

 

[miklonus]

Draugoth , someone's gotta check you on spelling errors in your subject titles.

This game is going to "BOMB". I saw a few pics online. I wish they were posted here.

Entertainment as we know it is dead.

 

[SidViscous]

What is it with these new modern writers being set on undermining and tarnishing legacies of cherished characters. Saw some leaked footage too.

Warner ought to clean house for these weirdos.

They pay to outsource the writing to sweet baby inc for “diversifying and enriching”

Their resume is self explanatory. forspoken, volcano high, Spider-Man 2

Basically if your favourite character is a straight white guy then you are probably not going be happy with what happens to them in their scripts.

 

[SJRB]

I saw the clip where they meet Ivy who is a little kid for some reason and it’s just so fucked.

What were they thinking?

And most of it is probably fake.....

Alleged ‘Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League’ Leaker Admits They Made Up Parts Of The Plot

While major Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League plot elements leaked last week, the leaker is now saying large parts were mischaracterized or just false.

www.forbes.com

While the Insomniac leak has overshadowed essentially everything this week, another superhero game, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, suffered large story leaks, causing many DC and Arkhamverse fans to start wringing their hands about the game.

Now, in the wake of those leaks, the leaker has allegedly come forward to say that not only do they regret talking about them, but that they either mischaracterized or even made up large parts of the leak.

• The leaker admits dataminer Miller, who has pushed back against the nature of these leaks, was correct about how flawed they were, and this was a “bastardized retelling” of the game’s story they regret writing.
• The story notes were assembled entirely from cutscenes in the game files, missing huge parts in between them and lacking all context. And even then, the leaker says the “skimmed” most of them.
• While “major events” happen, the details listed as fact were mostly speculation by the leaker. When they said “this (extremely controversial) thing happened,” it was more like “I think this thing happened offscreen maybe,” at best.
• Some pieces were made up entirely. Some plot lines were omitted entirely.
• There is something in the post-story content that “completely recontextualizes the story of the game” but they won’t say what it is, only that it shifts everything that came before it, if fans were worried about what the game may severely alter about the Arkhamverse.
