Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League Leads To Disappointing Results For Warner Bros.

That's what happens when you make a game nobody wanted

To the surprise of nobody except them.

I'm just glad we're at the point of game saturation that it is getting pretty common for dumpster fires of games to sell poorly. It is honestly what the industry needs instead of every major release breaking records.

I've no interest in this but the Zero Punctuation review, sorry Fully Ramblomatic review is probably the most damning review Yahtzee has ever done. Thoroughly worth a watch.

This. They had one job- make a new Batman game… I’m currently finishing my 3rd playthrough of the Arkham trilogy and these games still rock(steady).

@gollumb82 No kidding. Make a frekin Batman game. If you played as Batman taking down the Justice League, that would have been way better. But instead, they needed a game to fit Warner Bros agenda which was a shooter/live service game.

This year, Suicide Squad, one of our key video game releases in 2024, has fallen short of our expectations

Who needs Sherlock when even the suits at WB realised(finally)that this was not the game players were waiting for. Sadly now its only a matter of time before they'll announce layoffs at Rocksteady..

I'm excited and looking forward to play the game since the picture above shows Gus Fring is in it.

So after all the feedback they received from the community during the development process, they actually had high expectations for this?

It’s amazing how companies actually have expectations of selling a Poo. 💩
Wish I was a very high paid executive and could predict that Poo 💩 doesn’t sell well.
Perhaps these are the same daft idiots that we get politicians from. 😂

Cool, just means the price will drop. Sucks that it means that they won't make a sequel but I've learned to enjoy the game you get and not the series you which could have been made.

It’s a bunch of random crap with characters nobody cares for

Even if the gameplay was amazing, the story is so disrespectful to the source characters it'd still be trash.

@TheSimulator you’re nuts if you think Harley Quinn doesn’t pull her own fanbase. The other three pale in popularity compared to Harley Quinn though so I see where you’re coming from somewhat.

Does her popularity necessitate a game though? Not sure.

They made a game for teenagers only (dialogue and humour is cringe worthy) in an increasingly competitive and crowded industry. No surprises here. I'm glad I stopped at the free beta. Hopefully there is more Batman to come from Rocksteady with no WB meddling or, something completely original.

I'm interested to know if Gotham Knights actually sold better...
Side note, time for an Arkham Origins sequel? I really enjoyed that & there's a big gap between Origins & Asylum.

That's what they get for getting involved with sweet baby Inc

They should have just made a justice league game with co op and play as all the justice league members. It would have performed much better.

@MaseSco time for a Batman beyond

@Dusk_Actual My friends who follow everything DC and their friends pretty much only care about Harley as an accessory to The Joker. From what I can tell, most of the people who see Harley as a draw are the people on Twitter who don't buy or consume any media, which DC and Marvel both cater too for some reason.

purexbox you are include in the niche of peoples who loved it,thats why i never read your review, it's obviously a terrible game that didn't deserve a 8/10! 👀 are you out of your mind. I'm glad that people start to waking up 70$ for a gaas game is alot of money when we know that it will close eventually. peoples preffer buying games that will last.

I bet that the "expectations" would be set so high no matter. It does seem that the longer a game is in development the expectations behind the scenes just go up and up so even if it's a success it's not good enough.
