What does King Shark want to do, or why is he on land? What do they each hope for after they get out of Metropolis? They give a high five at the end, but I can't tell these guys are even any sort of friends. If not for that Batman fight exposing some inner flaws, they're paper-thin.

9:36 The in game microtransaction store still functions perfectly. Of course it does, that's probably the one thing they made sure they got right.

Game looks terrible. A mess of repetition, micro transactions & bland gameplay. What a step down from the Arkham series. No wonder they did everything possible to prevent reviews. I’ve played all 4 Arkham games a silly number of times and have 100% each one multiple times. After the state of optimisation of Arkham Knight being so bad that steam pulled it from their store for months, there was no way I was preordering this. Or Gotham knights. Once bitten, twice shy. And I kind of expected this to suck as soon as it was announced to be yet another boring & grindy looter shooter. They clearly learned nothing from Gotham Knights flopping, or from how poorly received Avengers was

As an Australian that Captain Boomerang joke legitimately made me laugh out loud. Well done mate! Hahaha

Hoping you get the stuff you paid for. With it being WB and having played a few of their games now, I am not suprised cosmetics are insanely priced. They don't let the dev teams pick the price points, that much is evident. Or they take way too much of the sales off them forcing the price hike. But the fact it's running smoothly when other things fail is deplorable

To be fair, on the PS5, I had zero frame drops, and the game play feels smooth. I don't want to be closed-minded on the game except to see the story as an alternative timeline. Each character does feel unique to and it takes a bit of time to get used to. The side quests helped me to test out the new upgrade features as the game progressed. I am nearly reaching max level. Overall, I am having fun with the game.

Anser is no obviously no

I have been enjoying it so far . I’m like 3 or 4 hours in. Mastering the movement and combat is pretty fun and I like how unique it is . Comic books can have random spin offs why can’t games and developers? It’s so weird that we are trying to box rocksteady to strictly only make og arkham style games when in reality both can exist so long as the game is fun which is all that matters . The story is cool , dialogue not bad . Launch had some bugs but other than that it’s been fun. I saw another reviewer get upset that when he tried to deviate from the mission that he couldn’t well no shit it’s suicide squad and Waller has a bomb in their head of course they can’t go wandering around the city instead of the mission it would be the same way in a comic lol

Bro theres so much misinformation. I saw a youtuber say you were stuck with the weapons "Boomerang uses a shotgun for some reason" - bro you can almost IMMEDIATELY change that. Most people also are focusing on the story and how they treat the characters - fam the STORY in a looter shooter is probably the least important part. I need to know about the CONTENT, the GAMEPLAY, the SYSTEMS and endgame loop. Destiny 2 has an OKAY story, warframe story is very good imo, and I personally hated borderlands story but the gameplay MORE than made up for it. But NONE of those games would have survived if they didn't have good GAMEPLAY systems. But yeah I know people care about story - especially with a dc property sadly.

I really hate how people are coming at this game the wrong way. If you aren't comparing it to Destiny 2, borderlands, or warframe then you already missed the point. I'd put it on borderlands level of writing (i kinda hated the writing of the series but the gameplay was insane), destiny 2 levels of gameplay (not amazing but not bad), and HOPEFULLY warframe levels of content/endgame later on. Like it's not a redfall or day before. Not everygame is going to be an insane hit - just enjoy it for a while then move on. Solid 6 or 7 imo. (Destiny 2 is an 8, warframe 9, borderlands 7 for me personally)

A fun as this game seems, I feel like Sunset Overdrive and Agents of Mayhem already offer what I liked most from this footage.

Short answer: No Saved you 11 minutes.

As a longtime Arkham Batman fan, I disagree. Coming from that position will, for most people and myself, make this experience even worse. Seeing them basically take a huge fat dump on both the Suicide Squad and Justice League in how they're characterized is enough to send me into a downward spiral of insanity. And, yes, I also used to be quite the comic book reader and somewhat still am. Tho I've gravitated more towards manga and anime that mostly have proper beginnings and endings. Modern comics, just like their latest adaptations have been, 90% of the time, downright insulting.

Weird that small channels have their reviews out before IGN, GameSpot etc

I honestly just think people are just hopping on the hate train. I definitely don't think the game is perfect at all but I'm almost certain that people are just talking trash just for the sake of it

there are MUCH MUCH worse games out there. The hate is defo deserved, but nowhere near to this extent.

The fact that the microtransaction storefront was still working even while the servers were down for maintenance should tell you everything you need to about this “game” and about live services in general. They’re digital storefronts for the publisher so we can buy useless virtual content that will become absolutely worthless once the servers are shut down and the game becomes totally unplayable. I’m not going to be one of those nostalgic guys who says “Games were better when I was a kid” but jeez Louise at least when you brought a game before the mid 2010s there was no question that you owned it and aside from the occasional weird exception it was a functional and complete product at launch.

Apologies for the bluntness and slightly bold opinion… No

u dont know how much i appreciate this review from someone who isnt just talking about the batman stuff that got leaked and just spewing negatives about the game, thank you for staying unbiased man

one thing that has kinda shocked me with the marketing and stuff is i still have no idea what kind of game this is. like i know its a looter shooter but is it more akin to the avengers game, the division, destiny, borderlands or something else entirely?

Something I'd like to note from my personal experiences is that the PS5 version runs like butter, after 8 hours of straight play time I think my game only dropped frames only a few times and even then it was like It dropped down to like 40 frames which didn't look that bad, surprisingly no connection issues with the servers, I didn't crash once and I've yet to crash as of now, and only very minor visual glitches ( By that I mean every time I exit the menu I do see a few enemies in an A pose right before going back to their normal pose )

Short answer: No Long answer: HELL NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Already refunded it utter its trash

7:02 When he said that boomerangs worst quality was being Australian 😂

It’s sad and scary that there are people who defend this game and try to convince everyone else that it’s good.

RIP Rocksteady

It's refreshing to see someone with an unbiased opinion of a game that been shit on before even coming out

great review man

Honestly I’m having fun with the game. I feel like the dialogue is pretty funny and the characters are fun. The story is whatever tho. Overall I’d give it like a 7 as of rn

I havent seen or heard anyone talk about Batman following you on rooftops, thats a cool detail

Being a psychopath doesn't make you a bad person, murdering people does. Harley murders people. That's what makes her bad, not a mental illness that real people have.

This takes place in the Arkham verse where Bruce/Batman doesn’t collect all of the riddler trophies… there for Nightfall protocol never happens…. This is mot cannon to the Universe where Batman Performs Nightfall Protocol. DC multiverse card is valid here.

The game looks and plays like complete and utter dog shit, the fact that you’re telling us that the game looks “good” is amazing to me, seeing that it looks worse than the last Batman game, a game that came out 9 years ago, mind you.

I have actually been enjoying it, i think the hate that its getting is a little overkill, especially with how good the movement, character banter and the mechanics work. Ya its a little overwhelming but hey thats a personal preference. As someone who has played tons of looter shooters, its nice to have another game to keep the attention. I hope the game dosent just get swept under the rug as there is some major potential that I think a lot of people are glossing over because of blind hatred.

The games right. It’s a great game for the genre it’s set in, weakest part is the story, the gameplay is really fun and fast paced especially when you start playing on the invasion level difficulties. The incursions get a little repetitive sometimes but upping the mastery levels kicks it up again. I also think it’s cool that the seasons don’t expire, and it won’t be going forever only 6 seasons. Can’t wait for mr freeze his traversal gonna go crazy

"and Captain Boomerang is Australian! It's all bad!" 💀 💀

Like you said, Rocksteady is a good studio full of talents. The real enemy is Warner Brothers, the business executives. They are the reason this game is structured like this. If it was not for them, rocksteady would have probably made a great Superman or justice league game. The problem is not the suicide squad either, but they needed those characters to justify the looter/shooter live service game that it is today with plenty of marketable cosmetics and guns. I truly hope rocksteady recovers from this and that warner brothers learn their lesson.

This game had 10 years in development. Just admit that the devs did a terrible job. This is far from just being a Warner Bros issue. They're bad too, but so is new Rocksteady.

The most painful thing for me is waiting 8.5 years for short glimpses of brilliance in between mounds of meh. Just feels like this whole thing was a big waste of time and talent to me, curious to see how it does commercially though, my thoughts and the markets thoughts are often different XD

Short Answer: No. Long Answer: Fuck No.
