Warner Bros. has announced that its WB Games division saw a massive 48% revenue decline following Suicide Squad flop.
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.
All playable January 7.
This is for sure not what’s gonna make me renew the subscription.
Suicide Squad is trash
It's been 2 years that I stopped my renewal to ps+.... And Still, no regrets.
Im fine with Stanley Parable and Hot Pursuit those two are good games, but Suicide Squad? That game is beyond goat berries
I think for this one, WB is paying Sony to include it instead of the other way around. the game is focusing on MT anyways thus more players mean bigger pool to hook that MT money
Good month for me on the basis that I considered buying NFS recently, but didn't, and although I've never heard of TSP it looks very much like my kind of game and I'll definitely get it. Reminds me a bit of Severance?
Just going to pretend the SS game doesn't exist.
Monolith studio had to die for this
F U WBG
Good
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
Let this be a f*cking lesson to you.
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.
