I found both Suicide Squad movies mid, first one was okay, wasn't garbage, but wasn't great either, just like James Gunn's version. Though I think they should have stuck to using the already established Arkhamverse Suicide Squad from Batman Assault on Arkham. Would have made a lot more sense, and no need to race swap Deadshot, or gender swap Mr. Freeze since there's already Killer Frost.

I would say that DC Comics has to revamp much of the Superman mythos back to what it was pre-Superman's son aging up as non-straight. I doubt Hollyweird will support that. Then there is the Supergirl problem. I don't believe that Supergirl is well integrated with the story of her cousin. There is no way fans like her as an immature young adult. Let me say that I see Kara Zor-El as an openly gay lesbian in a relationship with Lena Luthor. I don't know if you would support that idea. Since to me, her straight choices are boring. Especially since the most logical straight-Kara choice is a pairing with ginger-beta-male-Jimmy Olsen. Then there is the need to integrate John Henry Irons with Natalie Irons as one of Kara's best friends. See? Too much for WB to accept.

The problem is that companies need to realize that a studio known for making certain type of titles is likely unsuited to making another type! Its like trying to have a studio that makes live service games into one that makes single player games! Mind you its not impossible that they might end up with something halfway decent, but the odds of them producing something as good as the types of games they are known for is less than them working on something they have experience with! Basically, it's a bunch of corporate suits making decisions for things they have little to no understanding of & just assume Rocksteady could make a live service game because the Arkham trilogy was great!

I'm not gonna dig too deep, but with recent issues in general with WB, I'm sure this was a game they were forced to make rather than wanted to. I can definitely see for the last 15 years working on a series out of passion for the IP just to be told a 180 flip in direct is demanded, would suck any enthusiasm out of you. By no means am I excusing the founders' lack of cooperation and departure, but I can see why

10:18 for the people who didn't notice but ClownPuncher139 (or the guy who did the arkham iceberg) was in that part playing king shark

Something that makes me think too, in addition to the points you presented. I think they saw the success of the adaptation of The Boys, which came out in 2019, 3 years after the first Suicide Squad, and thought for some reason that what people wanted most was to kill the Justice League heroes. I have this impression because of that live action commercial, where Will Arnet talks about killing the League as if it were the coolest thing in the world. Nobody wanted to kill beloved heroes and make fun of it. At the time I even thought, based on the title, that it was an audacious move by the studio and that they would have an incredible justification in the story to reverse it. But no, it was more of a hasty reading of what the public wanted.

I personally enjoy the game, but I definitely see the flaws. I think story isn't too bad, and could be way worse. But some of the story they wanted to be left for the dlcs, like how the Justice League we kill are either clones or from a similar, parallel earth. It could've been executed better, but I enjoy it for what it is

If you like the game you are not a bad person but you have bad taste

Lore reasons can be a beautiful thing, or a horrible thing. That being said, I knew that there was more nuance to this situation than just “let’s ruin 15 years of storytelling and bring down an entire game studio for fun!”

Before the video: bad management with no direction? After the video: bad management with no direction.

Such a W channel

Kind of ironic because an actual justice league game could work with live service in mind

These companies desperately need people who are knowledgeable of online culture, gaming culture and social media to tell them what the consumer mood is. It's so funny how major corporations keep writing off criticism from gamers online when we're the ones they need to convince to buy their product.

I can totally understand Hill's position. He knew from the outset that these changes forced on him by WB would tank the game and without any other options he built himself a life raft and zogged off. It does suck for those left behind but he couldn't take everyone and get away with it.

you're right the title is like of those isekai anime where they don't even bother to think a proper name less than five charatacters that's meaningful instead of writing a whole sumary of the anime.

They should just expanding the lore as online game in Arkham Verse instead. Like playing as our custom charactors in Gotham or Metropolis or something like that.

The gameplay is actually fun for a while but does the repetitive. The team(not leaders) really actually did a good job for not having experience for working on a type of game they’ve never done before. Imagine if they could do what they really wanted without leadership fucking them over.

I wonder whats gonna happen to dc games in the future with james gunn having dc games connected to the movies and animated stuff

I really wouldn't blame the founders of the studio for jumping ship when the game was always changing vision. Trying to piece together what works isn't as easy as it sounds, and when corporate demands come in and you have to save your job and your image, it's kind of hard to make a good call. The main problem was how disconnected it was with the Arkham Games, this feels like a 1 year work here, scrapping 90% of what was done and using the 10% to start over and with DIE mandates that are apparently "popular" and other live service elements. The rest is just redoing years of work just so it looks good rather than fun and consistent. Don't blame the founders, blame corporate and DIE, from what I hear some of the veteran staff left with the founders so it kind a speak for itself why the game is in such a poor state. Passion brings us the Arkham Trilogy , it ain't perfect but it was awesome, while Corporate Mandates and DIE bring us this game that tried to live off a passion project using well established names to sell itself to those standards.

I wonder if Hill was trying to sabotage the project. Maybe he was dissatisfied with being told him and his team had to make a genre of game that they had no experience in. The little bit where he invited his old team to his new company where they'd be "free of WB's pressure and mandates" gave me this thought.

Personally my least fav Batman design in the Arkham Verse its still really good! Its just the others hit so much harder for me

No wonder if their management team video game side is just messed up as film side. I think the team leader isn’t intended to neglect their job they just can’t stand WB anymore. So they just leave and people who still working on the project has no choice but continuing work on it.

Do you think Sefton took so long to review is because behind the curtains he was planning to bail to cofound ANOTHER team? This is the perfect example of a game company burning through money then complaining "games are to expensive to make". Surprising no one, poor "Leadership" leads to failure.

I honestly don’t care much that it’s in the Arkham universe. They have the multiverse in the game so this can easily take place in Arkham verse where everything happened the same way but Hal Jordan isn’t the current green lantern for all we know. My main complaint is just repetition during the endgame. Hopefully it pulls a borderlands 3 and starts off crappy but give it some time and it gets better, hopefully

Green arrow Arkhamverse is both possible and an absolutely amazing idea that they’re stupid not to do

I had a high school classmate tell me she was thinking about quitting school two days before a 2 week long group project was due. Also, it was a two person project. Also, it was a huge part of our grade. Then after letting me waste time trying to get her to stay on, she only told me the next day that she had done nothing on the project. She was supposed to do a poster for it. I wasted most of the time trying to find out what she had done, which was nothing. I stayed up all night, bashing together something to make up for being the only one person presenter with no poster. It was 2002, and I definitely couldn't get a poster on Stalin done on such short notice. So I used my very 90s art program, printed out a communist looking hat brim, printed some rainbow stickers that said the students' and some black and red stickers that said the teacher's. Then I went in and went full ham on the class, sending the teacher and a student to "Siberia" after slapping stickers on stuff. I did manage to get a halfway decent grade, probably because the entire class was actually laughing at the jokes and paying attention to me mocking Stalin's policies. I had a kid say he is never going to forget that presentation while he was still laughing. It was actually an informative speech, albeit a very tongue in cheek one. My character became increasingly paranoid about the teacher taking control back, randomly banished another student, went on about how we should even delete them from photos. Then I attacked religion, started collectivisation, and suggested that the old churches made good grain silos. The whole time I acted more and more self important and paranoid, letting that increase gradually. It really showed well how Stalin was, casually suggesting liquidization. Sadly, most projects do not improve under such circumstances. I think the project would have been pretty tame had I not had to scramble to make something good enough to get over missing one third of the project. I'm amazed it worked and I got a B. Too bad this game couldn't figure out how to make humor work in their favor the same way. Probably because my report was about an hour instead of interminable, and didn't cost $75 per person.

The Daikatana of the 2020s. Every decade seems to have one.

as much as i don't like this game or the game mechanics of Gotham knights, im sure if they were given the chance to remake the games from the ground up but keep the dialogue, it could be possibly better but i highly doubt they would waste their time again.

I mean, i liked the gameplay, it's just the story just didn't work out for me

They knew damn well we would be upset

As much as I'd like to see a proper follow-up to the Arkham games, I truly think Rocksteady should take some time away from the Arkham-verse to just recharge themselves from the IP and probably use the time to make something else, even if it's something original inhouse

Why would anyone pay $70 for a half finished mobile game

Sefton Hill was obviously trying to avoid making the game because he knew it would fail and dc. These are just digging their own grave which is sad to see

I agree with some of the other comments that Sefton Hill taking forever to review progress & having the game delayed may have been an attempt at sabotage, like if the game is constantly failing to come together then surely it'll get cancelled especially since Warner Bros has been lots of projects the past couple of years. Then everyone will be moved to different projects that they can be passionate about and/or maybe successfully pitch a different game to the exeutives. However this project ended up being one of the few that the executives were adamant on releasing, regardless of how many people complained online or within the development team. It was probably based entirely on statistics "This movie did extremely well and this type of game is doing extremely well, so surely our game that's based on both will do extremely well!" "It doesn't matter that it's been several years since the movie came out, and this type of gameplay has been overdone by this point the numbers say it'll make money!" "What do you mean we've lost hundreds of millions of dollars because of this game?" At this point I'm waiting for the inevitable announcement of the game's various season passes being cancelled, the game's a flop which means the executives will want to stop spending resources on it. The question now is if the devs will be able to put out an actual ending or if the game's story will straight up be unfinished as one last insult to everyone including the people who like the game.

What he will not mention is hiring a ton of very poorly underqualified people as the studio bled senior talent.

If I see another person say it “disrespects Arkham Batman” no It doesn’t he’s like 40 in the timeline he was gonna get Merced king shark was said to be able to go toe to toe with Superman like the gameplay not great the loop bad the story wasn’t terrible neither was the treatment of the characters especially cause it’s the Suicide squad

This just really solidifies that this game isn’t canon

The game definitely isn't great, but there are a few good aspects: detailed character designs, fantastic looking Metropolis, occasionally funny banter. I hope Rocksteady can pull an Arkham Origins and reuse the map (with some tweaks) for a Superman game. That alone could shave 4 years off the project and help them recoup their losses.

I don’t consider this game canon in my vision the justice league formed before Tim Drake became Robin and he met Superman before the events of Arkham Asylum.

Marvel vs Capcom infinite is more Disney fault because they wanted to promote the MCU characters

Wasn’t it remade like 2 times? Before the final product

Biggest mistake was copying Michael Jai Whites likeness and not actually using him.

By what you are saying, looks like Mr. Hill did all of these on purpose, knowing the game is a flop, just to get out and start his own company.

Are y’all going to play the game again when deathstroke is available? 😅

Was Deadshot even in the most recent Suicide Squad? I’m pretty sure they had a different character. One that can call in weapons from anywhere. In the comics he was mapping the multiverse for Waller

He wanted a surprise. He wasn’t writing with the intent to destroy the brand and I’d argue he didn’t. The point was to mirror IW/Endgame’s model of the heroes losing and then returning for revenge. That’s it. Employees even wanted him to put more teasers for their return so there would be less backlash but he was hellbent on doing what ended up being the final product, resulting in a player base starting off with

He probably just did not want to do this. And this was a symbol of his frustration

​@@Rhyciz yeah but in the end of the day the blame kinda shifted from WB to RS to him personally, and to make the whole thing worse he jumped ship while everyone else drowned alongside the ship known as rocksteady.

Considering Sefton Hill (and the other co-founder) was the one responsible for three of the best superhero games of all time, I highly doubt he all of a sudden lost his way and became a bad leader. Him delaying reviewing his team’s work certainly didn’t help matters but it seems to be more intentional rather than not. It was even mentioned in the video that after starting their new company, Hill reached out to some of their old co workers offering them the opportunity to make a game free from the pressure of WB. Seems pretty obvious that he was unhappy with what WB was forcing his him & his team to do. He was stalling intentionally to either bide time until he was able to start his own company or maybe as a way to express his disinterest in the game to WB

I can see how fun this would have been if they just ripped off Saints Row 4 and removed the always online stuff.

But they also should have online servers for online multi-player with an optional squad vs squad mode

TBH, the movies and the game only confirm my suspicion that only John Ostrander and the late Kim Yale can really write the Suicide Squad. Though I will give James Gunn a shot.

I think the main problem is no one really cares about the Suicide Squad. Fans wanted a Batman Beyond or Superman game instead. But Warner Brothers refuses to listen to fans and they lose money because of it. I don't feel any sympathy for Rocksteady or Warner Brothers.

At first, I thought you were talking about the movie

We already know why: live service and SBI.

I feel like if the game was featuring some random justice league, rather than the ARKHAM justice league, it would have been a lot better and maybe wouldn’t have flopped. As of right now I refuse to beileve that it’s canon to Arkham, im viewing this game as some sort of deleted scene in Arkham.

Arkham Justice League should have DCAU actors.

The stuff with sefton hill was definitely the most disappointing aspect of all these stories. It just makes me wonder how he could head up 3 massive and successful games with the way this game turned out.

I’m playing it right now. It’s a good game but how they disrespect Batman was kind of out of wine. They could’ve done a few things better. It’s a decent game. I don’t like how they added the pride shit though

Your voice makes me laugh. Like in a good way. Just subscribed. Good takes.

Honestly, as much as the whole what happened when heroes turned villians and villian turned heroes sounds interesting they should have just started with the 2nd suicide squad game with bloodsport. Yeah the movie didn't do well but it got popular enough peacemaker is making a name for himself from his own show to being in mortal kombat

Look. Redo this as solo and I’d be happy 😂
