    If the Justice League was being mind controlled and truly no longer holding back they would be unstoppable.

The idea that some group of B-list criminals (who were already defeated and captured!) could defeat them was ridiculous from the start.

    There’s an alternate universe where someone at WB said “hey why are we making a game about the dumbass Suicide Squad and another separate game about Batman’s protégés that have nothing to do with each other? Let’s combine those 2 ideas”. Gotham Knights but with the budget this game had and the general plot about needing to save the Justice League from Brainiacs mind control while being a proper sequel to the Arkham series starring characters we know and have played as like Robin, Red Hood, Nightwing, and Batgirl/Oracle would’ve been a thousand times better than this suicide squad shit. Hell they could’ve then used seasons to introduce new heroes we haven’t played as and new Bat Family members and other heroes like Damian, Azrael, Black Canary, Green Arrow,etc. but no that makes too much sense

All these things makes the game suck even more because of all these assets were wasted on the Suicide Squad in general, and on a looter live service model

    It sucks for the people involved that worked on the game because the people working on the game, developers to actors, did the best with what they were forced to do. It sucks even more for Rocksteady, and other studios forced to make games like this, because their name is being dragged through the mud when it’s very likely the integrity lacking suits above them forcing them to go this route. People don’t want to lose their jobs and have to suck it up all while being the face and recipients of the backlash.

    Some of the parts I've seen discussed in other places, especially Harley's final words to Batman, read to me like it was ripped from some crappy character-bashing fanfiction. Any potential legitimate character flaws are mixed with made-up flaws, then exaggerated to extreme proportions to create a shallow caricature of the character. This character is then "ripped apart" by someone who barley knows anything about the surface level character, much less willing to look deeper into them.

If any other studio made this game it would be getting praised, saying "this is how you do live service". Unfortunately people are focused on WHO made the game, not the game itself. And there seems to be no nuance to the conversation. No one is comparing the game to other looter shooters or live service games.

And newsflash, you cant decide that, you morons. I hate live service, its a blight, but even me, when I think of it, even I play live service you could argue. I am a big fan of Paradox strategy games, like Stellaris. And these guys keep cracking expansions like crazy and I love it. But guess what, they made a game FIRST, fucking THEN it got popular, then they made expensions, and when there was a demand, then they turned into live service basically. These morons however, they undermine entire development and the game, so it could be live service in the future. Like thanks, thanks for "deciding" we will love and play and buy this crap before you even made... now go to welfare center or smth cause you might gonna need it.b

They pitched other ideas first but all were rejected, so eventually this game was pitched and it’s rumored that rocksteady not only wanted to make this game but had creative freedom with the story as well as gameplay loop and mechanics. Rocksteady was PROUD of this game and it’s story, which I find saddening if true. The original rocksteady truly is gone.
