I'm surprised! I was sure they would just crap out what they had and hope for the best.To the surprise of no one. Scrap it and remake it. Don't let Kevin Conroys legacy be tarnished by trashy gaas.
and nothing of value was lost.
Really? I'm surprised. They must have really taken the reaction to heart.
I mean it was unanimously bad. Don’t think there’s even been such a bad response to a big AAA reveal. At least not that I can remember. This game will be sent out to die.Really? I'm surprised. They must have really taken the reaction to heart.
The fact this got greenlit at all surprises me.
Then again it was probably greenlit while GaaS market wasnt over saturated and people werent tired of looter shooters.......~8 years of development and the project just doesnt make sense anymore.
No exec would greenlight this in our current climate but maybe 8 years ago this was a good idea.
Day and date it on Gamepass or make it free to play and hope for the best 70 dollars for this is a farce.
Imagine this is RockSteady, for years we were wondering what they were working on..........i dont think anyone could have guessed it was this.
Anthem 2.0 except with zero hype from day one.
I think we had another Halo: Infinite scenario were they wanted to release the game as is and only develop additional content as and if needed based on the players’ feedback GaaS style… and well the initial response made them think it would be better to add more months worth of content.They probably realized that with the reception they got the game was destined to be the next Marvel's Avengers.....so they probably asked one extra year to soft-reboot it into some kind of co-op based Batman sequel.
It's unlikely they'll be successful, turning something that was conceived like gaas into something else is not an easy task and at marketing level the well is already poisoned.
They showed gameplay at the Sony event and it was just another "Games as a Service" style shoot and loot game like that awful Avengers game that flopped or the recent Gotham Knights that also failed for the same reason. Not sure why WB keeps trying to push for GaaS, literally no other company is trying it anymore. Destiny(2) are pretty much the only long staying one and I doubt anyone playing that is going to a different game.What is going on?
Too bad, would've been nice to get this dumped out so Rocksteady could start working on something people actually want to play. Now another whole year down the drain for them.
