Alongside the countless people she's killed or tortured, she also tortured Jason, turned him against Batman, and also made a father commit suicide and killed his daughter. All in the arkhamverse. There is nothing good about Harley Quinn. She deserves to die like any other villian in my book.

WB is to DC series like Mike Eisner was to Disney park ideas. Both look into competitors ideas, try to copy them but fail to realize why those ideas were passable at worst and very good at best. WB wanted to make a Justice League cinematic universe like Marvel was for the Avengers, it tanked. Now WB is trying to make their version of the Avengers' live service game. However, they didn't pay attention to the fact that game struggled to gain traction on launch by it's design as a live service. I can only hope that someone in WB games department was begging them not to make it for that reason but were ignored, because I'm positive no one in Rocksteady thought this was a good idea but were contracted or forced to do it. I'm just glad the studio isn't fully thrown under the bus, but I hope they can bounce back from this.

What's a shame is that a Task Force X strategy game set in the Arkham Universe could be fun. Imagine playing as Deathstroke or something and leading a team of Z-list villains on a mission, choosing 6 teammates from a large pool, each with unique skills and drawbacks, sending them on Hitman style missions to accomplish a target in the DC Universe. Like you go into Arkham City to extract an important official who crash landed there in a plane (nice little Escape from New York reference). Maybe find an arms dealer in Khandaq (coming into conflict with Black Adam). Stealing an important weapon from Lexcorp in Metropolis mid Luthor-Superman, missions in Themyscira with an all-female squad only. Maybe have a Vandal Savage link to connect them (ending with a Legion of Doom base boss fight), that kind of thing. When a teammate dies, they stay dead throughout that play through, forcing you to choose new people each mission. Could have been fun. Maybe a DLC in Arkham Asylum (in the past). Really could have been interesting and fun.

you expect these greedy lazy savages to read source material for their characters? This entire game was created solely as a slot machine. All Live Service games are slot machines. Minimal effort, high profit. Luckily this game was so god damn awful it failed on launch so WB probably won't make millions from it's lazy pile of dog poop. Somehow I think Rocksteady intentionally made this game bad, it's almost purposeful. Like they wanted it to fail as a big middle finger to WB.

Why even make it part of the Arkham-verse? They could have made it take place in its own continuity and fans of those games wouldn't have thought of it differently. I think someone in the dev team knew this because I never saw the marketing imply this was a sequel to Arkham Knight. At least with the multi-verse backdrop and recasting you can argue this game takes place in a another universe that just happened to have a similar history. WB should have made this a sequel to the Superman ending of Injustice 2. Have evil Superman lose control of Braniac, who manages brainwashes him. Batman was already brainwashed in that ending and Harley feels more like the one from Injustice anyway, wanting to move on from the Joker.

Sales. That's all there is to it. They wanted to gain more customers so they made Arkham canon to drag it Arkham fans since a lot of them would be interested to see what happens after Arkham Knight. Unfortunately for them, they never took into account how pissed off Arkham fans would be once they see how their Arkham universe would be treated, especially when we have to play Batman Arkham games now with this game hanging over our heads as the final outcome to the Arkhamverse. So really, their greed and desperation ended up shooting themselves in the foot and they would have been better off in sales had they just made their own universe. They'll probably backpedal at some point in the future by resurrecting the JL but the damage's done.

42:07 in regards to who Lex Luthor might actually be: In Injustice 2, if you defeat Brainiac in it's games version of MK towers and see the ending of that character, you learn you were playing as "Brainiac 5, a descendent of Brainiac without homicidal tendencies. People fear Coulons because of my ancestor, so I elected to come back in time and fix that." That's probably what is going on here for the big reveal, a 14th Brainiac, but not really.

Surprised this video wasn't an HOUR long. I would also add the sin that Injustice 2 already did the whole Brainiac Attacks plot, and this version just feels like a discount brand of something better.

28:00 Wouldn't traveling to another dimension count as stepping outside of Waller's allowed boundaries - thus activating the bombs in their heads ? If they're in another dimension, they can't be tracked anymore. If they can't be tracked anymore, they're either awol our somewhere outside of the intended boundaries. Both cases are reason enough for the bombs to detonate. And, if they can't be reached by the detonation signal, because they are in another dimension, then there's still a possibility that this detonation signal would 'resume connection' as soon as they are back in their original world - making them explode the very second they come back.

I love every one of these videos because Dartigan’s combination of dry wit and smooth vocals consistently delivers a feeling of cathartic ASMR. But this intro was one of the best “Oh daaaaaamn!” moments I have ever experienced. Well done, sir. 👏

The really sad thing is there was lots of opportunity to make each character play uniquely while encouraging some actual cooperation beyond shooting at the same thing occasionally. - Deadshot: Good at long range single target damage and nothing else so he needs the others to cover him while he kills high priority targets. Can shoot healing/buff syringes to buff teammates. Only one who uses guns. - King Shark: Can pick up and throw teammates up to rooftops, teammates get a damage buff after being thrown. Teammates can ride on Shark's back. Shark is the best swimmer and teammates can ride on him while swimming. Have an Aquaman fight to emphasise this. Doesn't use guns, hands to big. Uses fists and jaws to rip and tear. - Harley: Ditch the Batman gadgets, use Joker gadgets. Playstyle based on area denial and placing equipment to help teammates like rappel lines to help teammates reach roofs. Uses small firearms and her baseball bat. - Captain Boomerang: Playstyle built around eccentric boomerangs that create distractions, opportunities and debuffs. What we got was 4 flavours of Uncharted 4 Nathan Drake

For all of his gaming sins videos, this one made the most sense.
