Suicide Squad: KTJL has an impressive cast.
Warner Bros. has announced that its WB Games division saw a massive 48% revenue decline following Suicide Squad flop.
WB games had a good thing going but after HBO max and discovery took over they just wanted live service games. They want steady steam of revenue. Just like Sony has a good thing going but they keep trying to make live service games and failing
Nah, they still won't learn. They'll just blame the next live service flop on some bs excuse and layoff more people.
Man...imagine if we got a new batman arkham (or new ip/hero title) game this generation with all the og talent from rocksteady. Instead insane greed got in WBs heads to force this very once taleneted studio to make a filthy generic live service. This is how you kill an amazing well renown studio which unfortunately happens much too often in the game industry.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League's true ending offers a slight hope for Rocksteady's future Arkhamverse games.
No, it doesn't. It's not good. It really isn't a good game. Game writers should find a good indy game or something instead of giving bad games positive advertisements.
Well said.
When you basically have to "jk" everyone in a poorly executed and thinly veiled attempt to save face, your story wasn't good. To me, this little fakeout so long after the fact almost makes the entire thing worse.
Paul Tassi: "Sony recently reiterated its commitment to live service games with one big hit last year (Helldivers 2), one big cancellation (The Last of Us Factions) and one big failure (Concord). It’s no great surprise it is continuing down this road, given the way the industry is trending and the limited shelf life of its famed single player games. But it immediately made me think of a game that Sony is allegedly releasing that I have to believe is pre-destined to fail, Fairgame$."
Fairgame$ feels like it's destined to flop out the gate- that initial trailer felt full of that same instantly-dated 'fight The Man with a ragtag team of weirdos' energy that was prevalent in Sega's Hyenas (which they wisely cancelled.) Unlike Marathon I just don't see this standing a chance.
It will definitely flop, missed the boat by a couple of years. Agreed that Marathon has a decent chance of succeeding it looks genuinely good and interesting.
It can't be sustainable having all these expensive GaaS being DOA being balanced by the odd modest success like Helldivers. The aim is to find the new Fortnite or whatever but it's highly unlikely and seems to be a massive waste of money.
I am playing none.
