[@juanaguilera804]

Totally agree. Also, no retcons and out of camera development would be needed to fit these Deadshot and Harley if it was independent from the Arkhamverse.

[@kingpinavatar]

If it makes you feel better its kind of implied that the justice league you kill may not be the true justice league. The flash somehow grows back his finger and superman isn't really hurt by kryptonite. Superman takes a kryptonite shard to the chest and is able to kill wonder woman and wonder woman even says it should have killed him. And then braniac is able to transform into the justice league members. Its not a great connection but the game does involve a lot of cloning. And hey, even if I'm wrong about that they can just say the game was an elseworld event and continue on from where they left off with knight.

[@shahum2248]

Here’s hoping they reveal it’s a similar universe and not the Arkham one

[@mikeythompson]

I agree

[@hEdgeMaster_CEO2]

The problem with Harley in this game is they replaced her Arkham character with the modern Harley which is incompatible without heavy story manipulation, and canon breaking aside, I see the modern Harley as a train wreck of a character which sucks because that’s the only blueprint they use for Harley anymore

[@Shalashaska-x5x]

It makes no sense dialogue in suicide squad says that ivy helped harley realise that the joker was a terrible boyfriend, and yet harley is still head over heels for the joker even after ivy's death

[@Viking_Raven]

There's so much character development that happens behind the scenes. It's just so hard to take this new iteration seriously.

[@Viking_Raven]

Just her relationship with Ivy for example, if Ivy is dead by Knight and resurrected as a newborn after. When did that happen? Was she cheating on Joker with her. Was it right after her mourning?

It creates so many plot holes just because they wanted to have a Margot Robbie lookalike in the game.

[@christianhenry4173]

[@scnoz1430]

It’s crazy how flash saved the suicide squad twice, the second time saving Harley specifically, and essentially sacrificing his autonomy to save her. His reward is that they don’t even try to capture him alive and after getting shot down like a regular enemy, boomer tries to pee on his corpse. Harley didn’t even have anything to say. But when a Wonder Woman dies Harley was near tears like these characters had some deep relationship spanning back multiple games.

[@francescobello2271]

killing batman was never gonna work but rocksteady still didn't live up to the expectations. Batman could've shown some resistance against the mind control, he could've had an epic boss fight and a significant death, he could've had great dialogue with Harley Quinn and the rest of the justice league instead of just being a brainwashed terminator, they could've shown more of him before turning evil (the museum and the holograms felt really flat and anonymous) . No matter how much the story and the game's phylosophy sucked from the beginning, the execution is still rushed and uninspired

[@bleyd__]

At least let Batman help before he dies or something. They could have also add Nigthwing or Jason

[@Seniorjohnson]

@@bleyd__ I think instead of wonder woman being the only one not mind controlled and fighting superman it should've been batman helping you by giving you the contingency plans then half way through get mind controlled or killed by superman, idk something more interesting than whatever we got.

[@simonstark6254]

They 10000000% should have had Batman be the one that avoided the mind control and helps the SS throughout, then in the Superman fight you would lose but then Batman would sacrifice himself, dying but allowing you to now actually win the boss fight. Would have actually done right by Conroy and actually honored Batman's legacy and character. But nope, shot to the head

I understand that feeling of enjoying a game most people shit on, and this review of the game makes me kinda wanna buy it on sale at some point. I Iove Arkham Batman, and the way they did his death definitely did pain me. Despite that, it looks like the gameplay and other aspects do seem enjoyable, and again, I'm glad you went above and beyond expressing how you truly felt. That's what really matters in a review.

My biggest issue, why the Hell is it connected to the Arkham series. If it was its own thing like Gotham Knights, I bet my left arm the hate it got would not be as bad.

[@imGgabe]

I feel like Rocksteady's getting too much hate for this game (though some of it may be justified). I'm playing this game right now and I'm having a blast with it, and I actually like the story (so far), but it's totally understandable if someone thinks differently. Either opinion is valid in their own ways. In my eyes, this is The Last of Us 2 for DC. You're either going to love it or hate it.

[@comicfan1324]

I will say, regardless of my mixed feelings about the game, and how much I feel Batman was out of character, I love how his boss encounters made you realize why criminals feared the Batman. Obviously, his boss encounters make you feel like the petty henchman you would hunt down in Arkham. Constantly looking over your shoulder, trying to find the Bat in some feudal attempt to escape unharmed. I ironically started saying things that the henchman would say in the Arkham games like “Stay away from me, Batman. Stay away!” And even once I got into the open world, I was constantly watching my back to see if Batman was spying on us from a rooftop because I know that something that can happen in the game. I never spotted him personally, but the characters actually commented that Batman was watching them so I took a full minute to look around with the sniper scope to see if I could spot him. But of course he was long gone. But the idea that he was watching me constantly kept me on my toes. That is the fear Batman inspires in his enemies. Even without his presence, you are terrified that he is going to get you. They may have screwed up his character, but they definitely understand why people fear the Batman. And honestly this makes me wish we got more games like Arkham origins multiplayer where you would step into the rules of your common henchman, and have to survive a night against the Batman or fail trying. That is the DC multiplayer shooter game I want especially, if you have a chance of playing as Batman and praying on your fellow player.

[@AidanMcQueeny]

I’m gonna talk spoilers for a second . . . The big defense I’ve been seeing about the Justice League’s deaths is that it doesn’t matter, because we know they’re coming back. However, I disagree, I think it matters immensely. For the sake of argument, let’s ignore the months and months it’ll take for them to come back in the seasons, which gives people plenty of time to stop caring about this game and its story. What legitimately will happen to the League once they come back? I think people forget that this is a live service looter shooter about the Suicide Squad, which severely limits the ways in which they can come back and their role in the story going forward. Best case scenario, everyone comes back as support characters in the Hall of Justice you can interact with. That’s ridiculous. There’s a lot you can do with the fallout for the League both personally and to the world, but this game cant address those things properly. Superman overcoming his depression about killing Wonder Woman and redeeming himself to the hero he’s supposed to be again, or Batman realizing he killed Tim Drake and trying to put himself and the Batfamily back together, etc. These things could be interesting, but the issue is that a live service looter shooter about the Suicide Squad doesn’t have the bandwidth to deal with any of these things in a meaningful way.

So these two have literally nothing in common. Flash is likely to fight Deadshot over Green Lantern. These two have zero history, so why are they hate each other so much? John Stewart wouldn't lower himself to fight Deadshot, he's too busy fighting galactic threats. He fights Space aliens, Manhunters, Yellow Lanterns, Red Lanterns, Deadshot? Not on the list. The only reason they hate each other is because one is Black and on the Sucide Squad, the other is black and on the Justice League.

This was a very mature video, and i really do appreciate your honest opinion. A lot of people will bandwagon on an opinion and say people are wrong for having an opinion that is different. I appreciate that you didnt 100% dick ride this game and you still managed to acknowledge its flaws and the circumstances of why it turned out the way it did. As someone who actually likes the dmc: devil may cry reboot I'm pretty sure much on the same boat. The game's story, writing, and characters were very bad, their were some cool ideas but they were never fleshed out and i think the game should have been a bit more challenging in terms of difficulty but despite those flaws i really like the game overall i think the combat system is extremely fun despite being simplified, it has a kick ass sound track that literally no dmc fan pays any attention to. I fucking love the art style and atmosphere for the game. It has this surreal bright emo/ grunge look with bright colors. it's a very unique looking game and the concept art is great too. dmc: devil may cry is not a great game but its no where close to being a bad game either and its definitely not the best devil may cry game.

Rock steady has totally gone under. Their profits have plummeted, they're player base is shrinking within days of release, they spent years making a game that only massively damaged their reputation and respect, most of their talented veteran staff have left. They don't have any core audience left and they're main selling point is gone. Triple a games take millions and millions of dollars to makes and hundreds of people. It was made to be a live service that will generate next to no money because nobody will play it. So yes one flop can ruin an entire company, just as one flop of a Hollywood movies can lose of millions of dollars. If you were an investor why you ever agree to fund them, all they did is lose a bunch of money, generate huge amounts of negative press for the company. It took 6 years for them to create something that will lose all it's value within a month, you can like the game all you want but games need to make money to survive, this game won't make anything and makes any future product they make have a much higher chance of failing. The only way you are surviving a massive flop of a game is if you're initial sales are extremely good or you spend years afterwards fixing everything, Cyberpunk although being a mess still made tons of profit so it still was not massive loss, no man's sky took 4 years to of hard work to make the game actually great, this game has none of that. It's not that popular, it never is never growing and the only hope of a comeback is spending years of of work and hundreds of hours of man power trying to fix it.

But for this story I’d personally change the suicide squad with the teen titans or just the titans now alongside a few other heroes like Shazam, Hal Jordan, red hood and have this game start with Damien Wayne arriving to metropolis to help stop his father after rejecting the ideology of the league of assassins. The way I’d have Batman beaten is basically a sequence that starts with Damien fighting Bruce and struggling to keep up until Tim as Red Robin joins in to help the new robin followed by Jason joining by basically pistol whipping the controlled Batman then finally Nightwing fully turning the tide on Batman with the part of the Arkham city sound track that plays during protocol 10 playing Flash would be stopped by Wally west with Hal Jordan dealing with John Stewart with banter that you’d expect two veterans from different US military branches to have with each other.

As a Dark Souls fan, who have always used the argument of, "it's not for everyone". Well I wanted this game to be for the majority honestly. It had potential, I mean, four misfits as the main protagonists, that sounds just like Borderlands, and, I love Borderlands. Except, it didn't live up to that kind of level to me, I'm not expecting a Borderlands clone, but I am expecting a competent game and maybe an even more competent story. To me, it is rather disappointing, I know, very original, right? If one enjoys this game, found it good or find it their money's worth? Alright, that's okay. But what I absolutely hate are the people saying the same exact thing about people hating on this game. "It's for yhe sake of hate", maybe it was for others. But there are a large amount of people who has a lot of things to say about it in a negative manner as well. It's kinda distasteful that having criticism means also attacking people who have enjoyed it even though by stating that, they're basically doing the same exact thing just on the opposite side of the fence.

[@joshuaoneal233]

Quite the review Clownpuncher, plus you're right about the title marketing, they weren't holding back with killing the Justice League, plus they tried to show that there's no other choice because as the Flash said with the lasso of truth "We have to die to save the world", and while I'm not one of those players that pretends it isn't canon, because I respect games for what they are instead of what I expect them to be, I can offer this for those that don't see this as canon. Think of this game's story as a branched timeline that has the same past but different future, also I read Deadshot's codex file that Luthor had and it mentions the Arkham Deadshot of a Redacted origin, keeping it open for either clone, or parallel dimension variant. As for Batman's death, well Gotham Knights tried to do a heroic sacrifice for the character but there were some people who thinks the game hates Batman, and disrespected the character when they didn't understand this concept I have, different stories and universes show us different variants of characters that are similar but different you can't just get angry at a variant just because your biase for a particular favorite version blinds you from seeing the unique differences writers try to explore when adapting them, and now I'm seeing some of those same people saying accusing this game of the same thing and putting Gotham Knights in the pity spotlight for treating it too harshly. While I'm familiar with Brainiac for collecting worlds to increase his knowledge and discarding the remnants, we've seen that Brainiac do it lots of times, so I'm not tilting my head when they gave him a new motivation of making a new Colu on another planet, but not just in one universe but every dimension, even when Brainiac got the League under his control I'd imagine he would say that he merely unlocked their full potential and removed the things that were holding them back

[@Marcospvz12]

Why do people say this game is bad? True explanation: Graphics downgrade compared to arkham knight- Disrepected deaths of every hero, except for WW because is a woman and not a toxic male (that says in the bio's)- Forced repetitive story (13 brainiacs to defeat)- Boomerang piss in Flash's body- Fortnite-like gameplay without building- Censored critics before the early access (which means WB knew it was going to fail, so they wanted to grab as much deluxe edition purchases as possible)- The final boss fight is a reskin of flash's bossfight (literally)- And the horrible death of the character that made us know Rocksteady: Arkham Batman. Opinion: This game isn't for sane humans.

Considering Batman has contingencies for every possible thing I think this game would’ve been infinitely better if he was the only one not controlled. Then we play as him again and he teamed up with the Squad to stop the other League members since he has an anti-weapon for all of them in case they went rouge.

[@captainblighe7297]

7:05 I disagree. They could have given him a better send off if it means you don’t have him talk as much, which can work for Batman, and/or use what he did record as a way to structure a handful of new sentences. This could have been done and then just have the squad talk more to compensate. They disrespected the man that made Rocksteady famous, the Arkham series is not it without Kevin Conroy. So if we *have* to kill this legendary icon and many others to boot, Make It Mean Something.

the gameplay is gas but the objectives and missions are lame. Movement and shooting are actually really awesome so i didn’t mind the repetitive missions as long as i got to keep zooming around the map. Tbh it’s better played solo so you can switch characters and mix it up

A lot of the games hate definitely stems from bandwagoning. You can definitely see a trend in what reviews and criticism saying the exact same thing over and over again. People were basically shitting on the game before it even came out to the point that when it actually did come out most complaints are bottom of the barrel, meaningless whining. But that’s not to say the game is perfect. Both gameplay and writing wise there’s a lot to be desired and a lot of cringe moments. That being said my problem with the justice league dying ends at the fact that they die, not in the nature of which they die. After all the whole game just shows that Batman is right to have a contingency plan for each member, himself included.

[@kodybuffettwilson]

"The devs were forced to make a bad game, so don't get upset with them!" "I give them points for trying even if they don't succeed." "I enjoyed it, personally, in My Subjective OpinionTM" "Don't let my opinion sway you, just watch raw footage of the game to decide." "I give you my permission to like or hate this game as much as you want, just don't you dare try to tell anyone else that it's bad just because you didn't enjoy it!" It feels as though half this video is nothing but these worthless cliches I've been accustomed to by non-committal KZbin critics, and it gets more and more annoying every time I hear them. Every employee of any developer and publisher who is responsible for producing poor quality gameplay, story, visuals, or audio is deserving of proportionate amounts of criticism, most people aren't familiar with individual developers, so the criticism is usually applied broadly towards the "writers" or the "programmers" or "artists" for the sake of convenience. This isn't inherently unfair anymore than it's "unfair" when people complain about a government program without specifically calling out the person responsible, or to stick with fiction, when they blame a director or writer of a film when it's more than just their contribution that makes the final product. Children get points for trying to walk, addicts get points for trying to quit, "professional" game designers and writers get paid for trying, but they don't get points from the public for trying if they produce garbage. Nobody cares if you enjoy a bad product, that's why the phrase "so bad it's good" has any meaning, it's when you try to defend the product on the basis that you enjoy it instead of on its merits, or try to recategorize subjectively enjoyable aspects as objectively quality, or when you sacrifice your standards of objective quality in the face of a product that fails to pass despite your enjoyment, that makes people take issue. If you really didn't expect to sway anyone with your opinion, why did you bother making this video instead of just sharing your thoughts with close friends only or even put out a Tweet or other brief social media post? Reviews are meant to inform the viewer regarding a product they are interested in and to provide a compelling argument to why said product is good or bad. Of course it's up to the viewer to decide, that goes without saying, but the critic should have no trouble being confident in their statements so long as they're supported by evidence. No matter how many times it's said, nobody complains about a product being given positive coverage just because they personally didn't like it any more than the inverse happens, as in it happens, but it's largely trivial in the broader discourse. It only gets raised as though it's a legitimate point whenever it's regarding controversial titles like this, and most of the time it's said as a contrarian argument from someone insecure over their having enjoyed something that is objectively poor and not being able to square that circle in their mind or come up with a good way of remaining objective while also explaining their feelings at the same time. "Staying positive" is no more virtuous than "being a negative Nancy" in the context of a review, it's the arguments you make and the evidence you provide that matter, whether that paints the product in a more or less positive light is irrelevant to the larger purpose of the review: to provide an accurate assessment of a products strengths and weaknesses while accounting for the critic's personal tastes. As an anecdote, I find people with the "wholesome vibes only" or "stay positive" mentality to be some, if not the most, hateful and toxic people I've had the displeasure of interacting with. I won't label you as being part of this crowd, but I definitely got a sense of resentment from some of your statements regarding the people who didn't like this game. And holy shit, the final stretch of the video is just excuse after excuse: "They were forced to make garbage" no amount of repeating this will make it true. The lead writer of this game hates the demographic who enjoys video games and superheroes and likely relished the opportunity to desecrate a beloved franchise and characters. "I can't wait to play this with friends." Good luck finding enough willing to put down money for this crap and fill out your squad, the player numbers have been in freefall since launch. "You get all the DLC free with purchase and it's not time limited!" until the publisher pulls the plug and your game is rendered indefinitely unplayable, that is. Oops. "Even if they add a battle pass, it'll be cosmetics only!" and what if it isn't? Will you still defend it? Why defend including a battle pass and microtransactions into a full-price AAA game? Why can't they just include lots of extra costumes and goodies in the base game with purchase or through economically priced DLC packs like with the previous Arkhamverse games? Because this game is a spiteful skinner-box that creates the gameplay loop with the hopes of snagging players like bugs in a web. "This is the end of the timeline so there's plenty more opportunity for actually good games featuring actually good characters!" So why didn't they make one of those games instead of this? Because this was their committee manufactured masterpiece of shit that seeks to appeal to everyone and only succeeded at appealing to desperate fools like yourself. "Elseworld is canon now so you can just disregard this entry as canon!" I already could, and introducing the multiverse doesn't make this game any better, if anything it makes it so much worse. "Every game is someone's favourite and that's okay, not every game can appeal to everybody!" That's a given, and deeply ironic considering the point I made just previously. Of course a game designed to be beyond mass-appeal, or in corporate speak "appeal to modern audiences", will end up appealing to a handful of people. But why bring this up in a review? It's a worthless statement that doesn't add anything to the conversation. I wonder if you'll still feel the same way about this game a year from now? Only time will tell. :)

Not related but I realized something about the time line. On all of the grave stones in Arkham Asylum (at least in the remaster) it has a lot of text, but it also mentions the 19 or 18 hundreds of November. Now you can make out what this says, I just can't remember which one it said. And I was wayyyyyyy to lazy to read the text. I believe it referances Amadeas Arkham (I know I spelt his name wrong). So this day may be important like his birth or death or something. But there is one other thing; after completing Cyrus Pinkneys mission (I think I spelled his name wrong but whatever), in his bio, it shows his supposed lifetime (which I also forgot sry). These are two big things I found and if there is anything hinting how long the case has been open, or if the time between his death and Origins, we have everything. Im gonna check all bios and stuff tomorrow on all four games' (unincluding sskjl but I am loving that game) bios, and see what there is. If this isn't new info, sorry for the time waste. If it is then this is great.

[@MasterTemplar781]

I've got a big complaint about John Stewart in this game. First of all John is my favorite Green Lantern. But in this game they just gave everything about Hal to John. John is a more serious GL while Hal is this comical overconfident dude. And in this game they just gave John Hal's personality and they made John a founding member of the JL which Hal originally was (i'm not mad about that but still) they gave John Hal's arch nemesis (sinestro) and they gave John Hal's backstory it's implied they have the same backstory as John is earth's first GL. And then they made John Barry's best friend even tho that was Hal. Like really they should've either made John himself or replaced him with Hal. Hal deserves more love. But becides that and the way they killed off the JL and a big part of the story i did enjoy the game it was funny and had in my opinion good gameplay. But now i can't play an arkham game without thinking how it will all lead up to getting shot by Harley while sitting on a bench. Yeah. I'm gonna stick to playing the arkham games.

I gotta ask what would people want batman's death to be like i think doing something over the top or heartfelt goodbye just wouldn't have worked with the squad

How about if Batman and wonder woman were swapped? Died fighting Superman would’ve been badass

He should've snapped out of it. This is the Batman that survived multiple mind breaking attempts with willpower alone. Mad hatter, Hugo Strange, Ra's Al Ghul, Scarecrow multiple times, and the freaking Joker's blood.
